2. In the world of Covid reporting, this is a +1 in the "W" column.

Winnah!

We report cases, and we report deaths. We don't report those who end up with heart problems, kidney problems, lung problems, various long-term or life-long debilitation. This person lost a leg and a foot, but continues to live. So, it's a win.

And, in order to pay bills and maybe have a tolerable living standard, does the government help? No, we create a GoFundMe.

It's a pathetic system. Even for some White House officials.
