I keep saying, I think the cure is worse than the disease.  There are also women being abused, I'm sure, who are locked down with their abuser.  That's not good.  Alcohol sales have also gone up 55%.  Abuse and alcohol is generally, a bad combination.  Not to mention depression and suicide.

I heard somewhere that DV is on the rise as a result of the virus but thought that was just a myth of the social drawbacks of the virus, I sure will pray for these people.  I say people bc men get abused too.

The baby boom? Do you even know what that means? The baby born right now was not conceived because of this virus. And it makes sense a baby would die from it. They have no immune at all. People are looking for something to blame every thing on.
