Many Countries Censored News Reports During The Spanish Flu Pandemic

I found this report on the Spanish Flu Pandemic very interesting. I wanted to share it with you. The photos from the National Archives are very impactful.

Many countries censored news reports about the Spanish Flu pandemic. Since Spain remained a neutral country, its press was free to report on the influenza’s deadly spread, leading to the name Spanish flu. Scientists are split over where the virus originated, with three possibilities being Kansas, France and China.

My post from April 14th: New Mexico Third in Alcohol Consumption during the ongoing Pandemic

This book (BIBLE) speaks both the voice of God and the voice of humanity, for there is told in it the most convincing of human experience that has ever been written, take it all in all, and those who heed that story will know that strength and happiness and success are all summed up in the exhortation, “Fear God and keep His commandments.” President Woodrow Wilson

Taken from the Founders Bible.

This breaks my heart…….that so many are turning to booze for answers…..to reduce stress…anxiety…..depression.

Yesterday I talked with a young man that was having a problem with anxiety. I understand. We are seeing things that we have not seen before in our lifetime. So many have died, so many people are sick, so many businesses closed, thousands without work, these are the facts. But my dear precious one, booze is not the answer. Drive your roots deeper into the promises of God. Soak in His love and Word. If I can help you, please call contact me through this website. I would love to talk to you. I have a bit of anxiety from time to time when I see the pain of the world, when I talk to people who are hurting so badly.

Pray Team Jesus For The Over 22 Million Americans Who Have Lost Their Jobs!

This is a very tragic situation. We need a week of Prayer all over America. So many people are hurting, losing their jobs, many are losing their businesses, they have closed up. Our world has been turned upside down. This will take more than a stimulus check to fix! This needs to be a Great Awakening here in America! We need to seek the face of JESUS! REPENT AMERICA! We got so greedy and turned away from the Lord, we sold out to China. We deal with this very evil country that kills their own people, blows up Churches, puts pastors in prison, controls many for our pharmaceutical’s, and things in our everyday lives! Why did we sell out to these killers? GREED! LAZINESS! Why do we deal with China and Putin? Why? This is not Biblical! Hosea 4:4… My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. “Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children. 1 Cor. 15:33 Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.” I thank the folks at WalletHub for this report. I also have posted two links from the ABQ Journal. I am praying for all those business owners who poured their heart and soul into their dream of owning their own business, blood, sweat and tears….and they may never be able to open again. I have a friend that has a small business here in Albuquerque who was kicked out of her space by her landlord because she is a ‘nonessential business’ (I dislike that term very much)  the Landlord wants an active business in her space. There is too much ugly out there. LORD JESUS! MAY ALL COME TO YOU!

With the U.S. losing over 22 million jobs since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, WalletHub today released updated rankings for the States with the Biggest Increases in Unemployment Due to Coronavirus, along with accompanying videos.

To identify which states’ workforces have been hurt most by COVID-19, WalletHub compared the 50 states and the District of Columbia based on increases in unemployment claims. We used this data to rank the most impacted states in both the latest week for which we have data (April 6) and overall since the beginning of the coronavirus crisis (March 16). Below, you can see highlights from the report, along with a WalletHub Q&A.

WalletHub Q&A

How do the job losses from coronavirus compare to those caused by the Great Recession?

“During the Great Recession, a grand total of 8.8 million Americans lost their jobs. The coronavirus pandemic has already claimed 22 million jobs,” said Jill Gonzalez, WalletHub analyst. “While there have been 22.7 million jobs created since the Great Recession, COVID-19 is unfortunately on track to wipe out all of the job gains by the end of this week, according to WalletHub projections.”

How do red states and blue states compare when it comes to increases in unemployment?

“With an average unemployment rank of 24, Red States suffered a higher increase of their unemployment during the coronavirus outbreak than Blue States, which rank 29 on average,” said Jill Gonzalez, WalletHub analyst. “The lower the rank, the higher the increase in initial unemployment claims that state received during the coronavirus pandemic.”

The state with the current largest number of COVID-19 cases in the U.S. is New York. How has New York’s unemployment rate been affected?

“New York has seen a 783% increase in initial unemployment claims from the beginning of 2020 to the 15th week,” said Jill Gonzalez, WalletHub analyst. “This is better than the average increase of 1,709%.”

What can states do in order to minimize the rise in their unemployment rates?

“States should aggressively focus on helping the companies in the most need. The federal response will include sending checks to most citizens, even those whose income has not been affected by the coronavirus. States can use a more targeted approach to divert resources to the companies affected the most, thus having maximum impact for the money spent,” said Jill Gonzalez, WalletHub analyst.
