I MUST say I like the way Covid-19 has changed my mind about everything.

I now see an end to each and everything "irrigadless" of where they are made and where they come from or how old they are.

There is a verse in the Bible that talks about God folding the earth. Yes it's clearly that simple.

Here in Africa, we get mesmerized by everything Western. We never know where somethings come from and how they come about, we just see them. Yes, that source and origin can be wiped away to extinction and oblivion.

A guy tried to convince me how Coca Cola as a company and product can never "end". Ooh how it's secured sijui insured in Mars or Jupiter. Ohh how it's history and brand is so strong that it will be here till the end of the world or beyond.

Please, that's a fallacy. Coca-cola can be brought down and cleaned up from the face of the Earth for good.

Trump is trying to help resasitate Boeing company, the world biggest manufacturer of aircrafts. Boeing was already "terminally sick" hence it's "immunity" was low, then Corona came.

I have never seen the world so confined to desperation, loneliness and hopelessness to a point that the President of the great America suggests that may be we get injected with disinfectants. He is only thinking loud. I would suggestion anything too if I were in his shoes.

I saw a guy says after Corona, "donors' should help boost African economy. I almost asked him if Italy was one of the donors in mind. It's called donor mentality.

Today, all our billionaire politicians are equal to the rest in accessing medical care. The best they can do is go to Nairobi and Aga Khan when the rest head to KNH and Mbagathi.

Now is when they are seeing the need to "prepare" including putting makeshift hospitals in stadiums. Ofcourse the rest of the world is doing so.

So yes, everything can end, including the companies that generate the cartoon series your kids are watching.

There are boys and grown up Kenyan men who never imagined that EPL could stop. The ones who spent every single day watching and discussing football and betting.

Not only did soccer stop worldwide some of the players and coaches contracted corona virus, some died. Some of their little stadiums are now recovery centers or morgues.

It's that high and that low. The world is that simple. Just trust in God.

After this, Kenya should embark on more self sustenance no matter how basic.

Months ago, no Jua Kali tailors could be allowed by the government to make masks. Now they do.

For all the years my wife carried sanitizer in her bag and used it everywhere. It never appeared so important to me. Now it does.

She has washed fruits with soap or vinegar for all the years I have known her. Taught me never to wash hands with plain water. Such that in every gathering I struggle to look for soap when many others are touching the plain water and heading to the serving points.

Making masks is not all we should be proud off. Let's never ever again eat plastic eggs and rice from China. We have seen China can fold in a minute and we are left hungry.

Kill importation of Mitumba. I know that is emmotive but kill it completely. I was told by a source in Presidential Service Delivery unit that EPZ can never even sustain the local market if it were to sell here.

Never ever again shoot down basic innovations even if they look like invention the wheel. It's our wheel.

Last night I saw a number of world top scientist interviewed on TV regarding various vaccine study tests going on. Yes the guys who sleep in laps in America and Europe discovering and testing this and that vaccine.

Many people imagine that Panadol and Malaria tablets just come from Chemists and pharmacies.

We never bother to imagine there are brains behind them. Now I have been forced to see and listen to them, some as beautiful women as our Kenyan slayqueens.

Let the virus change our minds and change them for good.
 
Most of us have learnt the importance of good hygiene the hard way.... we should always mend it with our daily activity.
