Breathless headlines featuring “The Virus,” are beginning to fade into a chronic undercurrent of, fear thy neighbor for he might be bearing the gift of COVID-19. What you won’t see in the headlines, are stories about a more pervasive and ultimately more lethal virus: a growing disregard for others and devaluation of life. Rampant homicides are disheartening enough, but more shocking is the shifting morality in medicine. News headlines gave the impression, that the newly instituted COVID-19 Rules were designed to save lives, yet, we soon learned that the lockdowns, masking and school closures, did more harm than good. Meanwhile, in plain sight, government-sanctioned sacrifices of the elderly were taking place. In 5 “progressive” states, COVID-19 Positive patients, were discharged from hospital isolation units and returned to their nursing homes, where they among, uninfected residents. Of course, many more residents became ill. However, it didn’t make the headlines, that half of the COVID-19 deaths, were in
