Look out, Covid Test! Figured You Out!

“Hello, Vivian, this is John Doe (name changed to protect the innocent/guilty), and I hear you had a hard time passing the Covid Test and getting a ‘negative’ so that you could go on about your activities and duties.”

“Yes, John, that is right, but I finally passed it with ‘flying colors.’”

“O. K. Good! So ‘clue me in’ so that I can get a ‘negative’ and go back to work.”

“O. K. I will, but first I have some things to tell you.”

1. SALT is really great on French fries and watermelons and peanuts.

2. A SALT rinse can really help with allergy symptoms. Someone about whom I read had allergy symptoms for years and took allergy shots, prescription medicines and over-the-counter medicines, acupuncture treatments, and herbal products; however, nothing really seemed to work as he needed it to or as long as he needed it to! But finally, he found relief and, I think, a real CURE—saline spray in the nostrils two or three times spaced out during the day and especially if the sufferer has been outside. He stated, “I ‘fired’ my allergy shots and expensive medicines and really don’t need them anymore! I buy the cheapest brand of saline spray with no other added ingredients at a local store, and keep it with me most of the time. And, I was so glad to read that this is a safe, cheap, reliable treatment. I have even started making my own saline mixture and put it into a spray bottle I purchased at the nickel & dime store!”

3. SALT is good for de-icing concrete areas, but it may kill plants and rust metals!

4. SALT is good for pre serving foods!

5. SALT can be unhealthy for people prone to heart and kidney problems!

6. SALT is in human sweat, and its residue can be found on/in garments that have been worn by sweating people, who have then let the garments dry without washing them.

7. SALT CAN OFTEN SOLVE THE PROBLEM NOTED AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS ARTICLE. “I (Vivian) had a really severe bout with the Covid-19 disease, and after I felt I had been cured, I needed a ‘negative test’ to be allowed to visit in ‘assisted living facilities’ (Don’s Mother is in Three Forks Senior Living.) and to feel ‘right’ about having the whole family come to our house to celebrate Christmas. BUT…..I just could not pass the test, even though Don was able on the first try after he felt ‘cured,’ and I was ‘fever-free’ and virtually ‘symptom-free’ and had been for a while! So, I started inquiring and reading and found out about the value of ‘flushing out’ my nasal passages with SALT solution (spray) from more than one source. A little skeptical I was, but what could I lose. So, I flushed out my nasal passages with ‘salt water’ four times for three days and then twice the morning I went for the test. The same day a few hours after the test, an administrator called with the good news—Mrs. Vivian Themer, you have received a ‘NEGATIVE’ test and will get verification by e-mail! I had told the ‘tester’ that I had used the saline flush, and she said that ‘people can test positive up to 90 days after they are cured.’”

8. Moral of this story: If you think you are cured of the Covid-19 illness and need a “negative” report for some specific reason and cannot produce a “negative” reading, TRY SALT!
