Except... the funniest humor usually has some truth attached to it.

Taken from the Bandolier website, http://www.bandolier.org.uk/booth/Risk/plague.html ,

"In the two great plague pandemics of the mid 6th century and mid 14th century, the risk of dying from plague was greater than 1 in 2."

Taken from Johns Hopkins, https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality , the US mortality rate is 4.3% of CONFIRMED cases. Obviously, since we have not tested everyone and the vast majority of people who get Covid have either no or very mild symptoms, the mortality rate is much, much lower.

Those of us figuratively licking rats are just trying to show the extreme difference in comparisons like these. Rest assured that those of us licking rats, speaking for myself and the people I know personally, are NOT licking rats and then interacting in person with people who are uncomfortable with our rat-licking behavior. I respect the wishes of my friends, family, and strangers who think differently.

And now, humor...

So we're into our 5th month of defeating COVID-19. These words made me laugh but there's a lot of truth mixed in to consider. . .

1. So let me get this straight, there’s no cure for a virus that can be killed by sanitizer and hand soap?

2. Is it too early to put up the Christmas tree yet? I have run out of things to do.

3. When this virus thing is over with, I still want some of you to stay away from me.

4. If these last months have taught us anything, it’s that stupidity travels faster than any virus on the planet, particularly among politicians and bureaucrats.

5. Just wait a second – so what you're telling me is that my chance of surviving all this is directly linked to the common sense of others? You’re kidding, right?

6. People are scared of getting fined or arrested for congregating in crowds, as if catching a deadly disease and dying a horrible death wasn’t enough of a deterrent.

7. If you believe all this will end and we will get back to normal just because we reopen everything, raise your hand. Now slap yourself with it.

8. Another Saturday night in the house and I just realized the trash goes out more than me.

9. Whoever decided a liquor store is more essential than a hair salon is obviously a bald-headed alcoholic.

10. Remember when you were little and all your underwear had the days of the week on them. Those would be helpful right now.

11. The spread of Covid-19 is based on two factors: 1. How dense the population is and 2. How dense the population is.

12. Remember all those times when you wished the weekend would last forever? Well, wish granted. Happy now?

13. It may take a village to raise a child, but I swear it’s going to take a whole vineyard to home school one.

14. Did a big load of pajamas so I would have enough clean work clothes for this week.

Oh. Most of us have a sense of humor about it.

I’ve learned most chronic disorder folk do, over the last year or so.

The folk who have neuro damage are even funnier. “I don’t have trouble walking! I have swagger!”

LOL. It’s an acceptance thing. Much healthier than moping. Get on through those stages of grief and get back to living.

Anyway sorry to interrupt the jokes here, you should see the jokes in those groups!... :)
 
D-pilot: OK, I guess, thanks for the explanation.
The Sarcoid patients I used to care for generally didn’t joke about it, glad you can. Really, I am glad.
