A word of caution.  I have been living with cough drops nearly 24/7. They do work. I have not had a cavity in at least 15 years.  The last dental check up revealed 10 cavities. The dentist attributed them to sugar from the cough drops plus dry mouth from not drinking enough water. Be careful out there.

I’m feeling as if we are all going to be fatalities to this virus. The experts all seem to agree that we will ask get it eventually. Most of us can not survive any flu. A lot of us can’t be intubated because we wind never get off of it. Pretty gloomy future for thousands of us.
