Are we really living in a world of crack pots.

Let's be honest here their is not test on this planet that can give you a positive test for Covid as covid has never been isolated so how can anyone be tested positive for it.

The PCR test gives a positive for SARS coronavirus. But which one of the coronavirus are positive for.???

Some vital detail missing from this story- people are putting water bottles containing masks into their  mouths? Taking masks out and filling the bottles? Or is it 5 gallon water bottles that are never sanitized properly  even in the best of times? 

I cut the  loops off,   cut out the wire  and put them in a paper bag to be recycled with the rest of the cardboard, newspaper, etc. Too much quality natural material  in there to toss in a landfill and the recycling process will sanitize it enough.
