Dream State - The Second World

Letters to Brighid
Dear Brigid, I apologize if this is abrupt or sounds weird. I wanted to write to you and begin a correspondence or at least an acquaintance. I’ve done research on you for years and know at least one person who is your devotee, I love her to bits and thought that anyone that she loves already seems like someone I should get to know.

The Discovery of Germs
What makes you sick? Filth and decay, obviously. The stagnant muck of sewers and swamps, or even a bad basement, endangers your breathing and maybe even your life. Living in cleanliness, sunshine, and fresh air is the way to avoid damaging your health. This much has been apparent to most observers since the most primitive times.

When people think of evil, they tend to think of infamous historical figures such as Hitler, dastardly fictional characters like Voldemort, or horrendous organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan. They often think of the large-scale damage that was done, the killings, the maimings, and the societal devastation surrounding them. They do not tend to think of the small things that went mostly under the radar. For that matter, they do not tend to think about how everyday people can be just as awful, without causing as much damage.

The use of the N95 Mask in the USA has recently attracted attention and criticism from several medical professionals. The methodology of the airborne contagion is confusing to many experts. Why is the death rate for infected patients within Iran about double that of other patients in other countries including South Korea, Italy, and Japan?

These are only a few questions that are raised by medical professionals when faced with an N95 Mask for sale in the USA.
