Like Spring: Signs bloom all over for Coronavirus's end; It's early, but there's an awful lot of longed-for good news out there

It's probably a little early to say for sure, but based on what's happening now, it almost seems like a long dark winter is finally lifting. You can see it going on all around the world.

First, U.K. Prime Minister Boris Yeltsin is hanging on. He's still in the hospital, still in intensive care, but based on the reports seen, he's not getting worse. He's still not on the ventilator. The latest is a confirmation from No. 10 that he doesn't have pneumonia. No news is good news. He's got someone running the place while he fights. Everyone of decency in the world, even U.K. Labour leader (now former) Jeremy Corbyn is wishing him well. Maybe it's the collective power of prayer.

Second, Italy and Spain have finally broken the upward swing in the pace of cases. Spain reported 637 deaths yesterday, down from 674 the day earlier, and 950 last Thursday. Italy's death toll hit a high of 636 but new cases dropped off sharply. The two hardest-hit European nations are finally seeing less, rather than more of the hellish caseload of infections they have been through. And Italy's prime minister has offered President Trump and the United States the most effusive of praise. We Americans are so glad President Trump, outside the radar, it seems, found a way to help them out.

Third, Austria is opening itself up for business again, as is Denmark, with regard to schools. These weren't the worst-hit states, but that's how these things go, the less sick recover the fastest. Assuming it really is safe for them to open -- and in the East Asian states such as Singapore where cases are recurring, it's possible it's not time yet based on reinfection rates, but it's seems to be a trend,

BTW, I did not write the name: “Boris Yeltsin” in the article, it was not proof read. It really should read BORIS JOHNSON.

Selfish observation. As of this morning, my retirement account is down less than 2% from where it was last year. Yes, that is a large amount of gains wiped out in the last five weeks or so, but still remarkable considering where we have been.

The prayers of the righteous and God are blessing us a lot. Maybe even more than we deserve.

“First, U.K. Prime Minister Boris Yeltsin is hanging on.”

Great journalism from the MSM.

Yeltsin always was double-tough.

Boris Yeltsin has been very quiet since his death.

It's the English way....

Seriously, he has the Chinese Virus, and is hospitalized. Hopefully, and against the wishes of the deep state, he's getting the Hydrochloro-whatchacallit treatment.

Holy carp, I didn’t even see at first it was “Yeltsin”....BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Yeah, I’d say his condition is “stable”.

That’s not an editor problem, that’s an example of a MSM journalist who is not very smart, or really, really dumb.

Spring is going to disappear from the Central US in about 10 days.

Too bad. We could have used Boris Yeltsin to see if consuming alcohol can treat or prevent the Coronavirus.

That has its good points and its bad points.
