One night when a guy was watching #FauxNews he learned about a new virus that was rapidly spreading and quickly killing those who contracted it.
The nightly news reports got worse and worse, the #Covid19 virus was spreading around the world and killing increasingly large numbers of people. But he wasn’t concerned, he knew he’d be OK because he prayed to God nightly and knew God would protect him.
Not long after a spokesman who worked for the administration and other scientific and medical sources started saying people should wear masks to filter out the virus when they were in public or even in private gatherings with others. Wearing a mask could save you, they said.
But not #FoxNews, and the Fox News fan laughed. “I’ll be OK, I'm praying to God and He’s gonna protect me."
Things got even worse. Even with masks people were still dying lm. So many people were getting infected and dying that some state governments began to suggest and even require people to stay at home, lock down and not go out, go to work or socialize at all.
The Fox News fan said, "No thanks, I'm praying to God and He is going to protect me. I have faith. I joined a protest to demand this kind of government overreach stop. God will provide what we need. We have to fight back against the dictates of big government”.
But even with lockdowns people were still dying. Then then pharmaceutical industry announced they’d developed multiple, effective vaccines to protect against the virus. All you needed was to get a shot or two and you’d be largely protected from getting Covid
or suffering the severedt consequences of the virus. To this the Fox News Fan again replied, "No thanks, I'm praying to God and he is going to protect me. I have faith."
Soon the virus mutated into a highly virulent variant and began to spread like wildfire. One day the Fox News Fan woke up after attending an anti-mask mandate rally feeling sick. He wound up in intensive care at the local hospital diagnosed with the Delta variant of Covid-19.
Somehow, perhaps his large donation to the local mega-pastor’s Learjet fund, he wound up in Heaven. He got a chance to discuss the whole situation with God and h exclaimed, "I had faith in you, but you didn't protect me, you let me die of Covid-19! I don't understand why!"
God looked at him sternly and replied, “I sent you masks to safeguard you, lockdowns and travel bans to slow the spread of the virus, and to top it off multiple vaccines to protect you. What more did you expect?”

When #PresidentBoneSpurs was still occupying the White House the AMA American Medical Association weighed in on his #Coronavirus strategy.
Allergists were in favor of scratching it, but dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.
The gastroenterologists had sort of a bad gut feeling about it, the neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve and the obstetricians were certain #Drumpf was laboring under a misconception.
Ophthalmologists considered the ideas shortsighted. Pathologists yelled, “Over my dead body, pediatricians said, “Oh, grow up!” and psychiatrists thought the whole thing was madness.

It was the first day at medical school and all the students gathered around a corpse in a lab next to the professor.
The professor said, "There are two important lessons every person hoping to be a doctor should learn. The first lesson is you should never feel disgusted about the human body."
He proceeded to insert his finger into the cadaver's butt and then put his finger into his mouth and sucked it clean. The room echoed with barely suppressed reflex gags, loud hacks, groans and one belch.

The British Army found they had too many officers and decided to offer an early retirement bonus.
They promised any officer who volunteered for retirement a bonus of £1,000 for every inch measured in a straight line between any two points in his body. The officer got to choose what those two points would be.
The first officer who accepted asked that he be measured from the top of his head to the tip of his toes. He was measured at six feet and walked out with a bonus of £72,000.

An engineer who was unemployed for a long time decided to open a healing center. He put a sign outside the clinic: "A cure for your ailment guaranteed for $500. We’ll pay you $1,000 if we fail."
A doctor walking by thought this was a good opportunity to earn $1,000 and went in.
Doctor: I’ve lost my sense of taste.
Engineer: Nurse, please bring the medicine from box 22 and put 3 drops in the patient's mouth
She did and the doctor gasped “This is gasoline!”
Engineer: Congratulations! You can taste again. That will be $500.
The doctor forked over the money and stomped out of the clinic.

Larry went to the doctor for a checkup and afterward the doctor said, “Larry, everything looks great. How are you doing mentally and emotionally? Are you at peace with God?”
Larry replied, “God and I are tight. He knows I have poor eyesight, so He’s fixed it so when I get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, poof! The light goes on. When I’m done, poof! The light goes off.”
“Well,” replied the doctor, “that’s very interesting. Just keep on doing what you’re doing and you should be fine.”
after Larry left the doctor called his wife & said, “Bonnie, Larry’s checkup was really pretty good. But I am a little concerned about one thing.”

The Pope became very ill and was taken to many doctors, none of whom could figure out exactly what the matter was and how to cure him
Finally, he was brought to a very old physician. After about an hour’s examination he came out and told the cardinals he had some good news and some bad news.
The bad news was that the Pope had a rare disorder of the testicles. The good news was that all the Pope had to do to be cured was have sex.

Well, this was not good news to the cardinals, who argued about it at length.
