(CNN)A strongly medicated President Donald Trump bolted from his VIP hospital bubble Monday, staging a bizarre White House comeback that included an irresponsible mask removal and a reckless pronouncement there is nothing to fear from Covid-19, which has already killed 210,000 Americans.

His actions show him, if anything, entrenched deeper in denial over the virus than ever before and more committed to trashing scientific protocols that could slow the pandemic.

"We're going back. We're going back to work. We're gonna be out front. As your leader I had to do that. I knew there's danger to it but I had to do it," Trump says in a strange campaign video whipped up by aides within an hour of his return to the White House, in which the President framed himself as a warrior who took on the virus and won.

Japan has decided to coexist with the new coronavirus! Announced the "new life model" calling the people to be prepared to follow this model for an extended period of time and learn to live and work with the virus lurking around the corner.

Looking closely at these new life models, it can be seen that the Japanese government established these very practical set of SOPs using principles of rationality, science, and risk assessment.

Maybe it is related to the Japanese understanding that "bad" things can't be forsaken for all times.  Using risk assessment models in principle, humans can continue to live well. Read them one by one. There are three basic points:

1. Keep a distance between people.

2. Wear a mask.

3. Wash hands frequently

Specific requirements

1. People keep a distance of 2 meters.

2. Play as much as possible outdoors

3. Try to avoid being face to face direct facing when speaking to other people 

4. Go home and wash your face and clothes immediately

5. Wash as soon as you touch someone's hand

6. Try online shopping and electronic settlement

7. Supermarket shopping is best for 1 person, to choose time there are less people

8. Try not to touch commodity samples

9. Don't talk on public transportation

10. Go to work by bike or on foot

14. Work at home or commute at off  peak time

15. Do not go to countries or places where the virus is endemic

16. Try not to return home to visit relatives and travel, and control business trips.

17. When you have symptoms, remember where you went and who you met.

18. Eat meals with others not face to face, preferably side by side

19. Do not use large bowls and large pots to share food, implement a divided individual portion system

20. Chat less at meal, eat more vegetables

21. Try not to have too many people gathering at meal together as possible

22. Avoid "closed spaces, dense crowd flow, intimate contact"

23. Self-test body temperature every morning to strengthen health management

24. Cover the lid when flushing the toilet

25. Don't stay too long in a narrow space

Shigeru Oo, chairman of the Japanese government committee, said that it takes at least one and a half years for the vaccine to be fully developed and officially put into use.

Since the enemy cannot be completely eliminated, it is necessary to learn to coexist with the virus.  
Only by following the new rules of life can we live in peace with the corona virus for a long time.

In fact, most of the above methods have been implemented in China. 

Everyone understands that it is a long-term war, but each item is not listed in detail. 

The Japanese are genetically a very disciplined nation and they do things and follow instructions scrupulously. 

It is worth learning.

Dr. Scott Gottlieb on Monday lamented the persistent spread of the coronavirus in the U.S., suggesting the nation’s response pales in comparison to other places around the world.

“The entire Pacific Rim has less than 1,000 infections a day. Having a raging epidemic is not inevitable,” Gottlieb said on CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” referring to countries such as China, Thailand, Vietnam, Japan, South Korea and Australia. 

“People want to say China is lying about the two dozen cases that they’re reporting a day, which I don’t believe they are [lying]. Certainly, the entire Pacific Rim isn’t in on the conspiracy. It isn’t inevitable that we have a raging epidemic,” added the former Food and Drug Administration commissioner under President Donald Trump.

Capo: Mahathir, Anwar's royal pardon was the top of Pakatan Harapan’s promises. The electorate voted overwhelmingly for Harapan based on this premise and made you the prime minister.

As such, you were required to work with the Pardon's Board to secure Anwar's freedom. What you did not expect was when the Agong pardoned Anwar based on the premise of miscarriage of justice from 1998-2018. That means all the charges against Anwar were trumped-up and politically motivated.

If you had honoured your own written and spoken word to hand over the premiership baton to Anwar, like then PKR president Wan Azizah Wan Ismail honoured hers, today you would be our hero, not a zero.
You stole our hard-fought mandate by toppling a legitimately elected government.

We the members of G25 Malaysia would like to record our appreciation to the Sultan of Perak, Sultan Nazrin Shah, for his speech at the recent nationwide convention of fatwa committees, which was held in Sepang, Selangor, on Sept 22. 2020.

It was a well-written and progressive speech in which the ruler advised that fatwas which are formulated should take into account the views of all stakeholders in society. This is because, when fatwas are issued after receiving the royal consent in the respective states, they are expected to be well-received, due to their practical application in the daily lives of every Muslim.
