Ramadan Myths 1:
Fasting increases the risk of catching or dying of COVID. So let’s not fast in 2020
Truth:
COVID goes to the respiratory system regardless of how full or empty the stomach is; fasting won’t change its infectivity
If already sick (with anything) don’t fast.

2/ Why is the U.S. "reliant" on ever more debt to keep the economy functioning?
With all the government programs in response to Covid (for understandable reasons), total debt in the U.S. is certain to soar to new unprecedented heights.
What does it all mean?
1/ The federal reserve is now backing an incredible amount of debt in the U.S.
After 2008, U.S. could not "pay down" its high level of debt even with very low interest rate.
e.g. total debt in U.S. went from 230% of GDP on eve of previous crisis in 2007 to 253% of GDP by 2019.
