“Real” Consequence of the Corona Virus!

In addition to killing some of us, I feel strongly that the Coronavirus has substantially lowered our collective IQ. I just heard some guy in Michigan equate asking about your vaccine status with asking if you have HIV…. Well if you have covid, all you’ve got to do is breath on me to get me sick. For me to contract HIV from him I’m guessing there would have to be a lot of breathing; mostly “heavy”… and “no” you’re not my type.

Also the moron in this pic coughing up a lung? No mask. Of course! We’ve become stupid. Maybe it’s too much to hope for- for the Human Race to survive if a simple virus can lower our IQ by 40 or 50 points. And that seems like that’s what I’m hearing on the news. Maybe that’s the Coronavirus’ real agenda: make us stupid and sheep-like, the better to kill us all off while we storm the capital and plan to kidnap a governor (sheeesh!).

About Zaslow Crane

Zaslow Crane wrote his first Science fiction story when he was 11 This was after an uncle had given him a Charmin case full of sci fi paperbacks- all the old masters: A.E.Van Vogt, Cordwainer Smith, Heinlen, Bradbury, and dozens more. After that, he never looked back. Zaslow Crane has contributed to numerous magazines and newspapers over many years, and has been a contributing editor for a national magazine. He has been published a couple hundred times for non fiction. Regarding fiction, he writes primarily SciFi and was one of the creative talents behind Smoke and Mirrors, a parsec nominated podcast that "re-imagined" the Twilight Zone and, which ran for 2 1/2 years. He has written over two hundred short stories, 7 or 8 novellas and two novels, one of which "explains" a great many advancements in human technology. He likes mindless sort of work, because it frees that other part of his brain to work on story ideas, so if you see him, say, digging a ditch, you'll know that he’s really writing. He lives in a tiny house on a hill in Central California. His home overlooks the ocean - IF you're willing to stand on tip toes and crane your neck. Just a bit.
