People are afraid of Covid because it can be fatal. In the meanwhile they do dumb shit that also can harm.

There's also something that's called 'cooking'. It comes in very handy when you want to kill bacteria, germs etc. And it makes the food also more delicious.

Lao Khow goes into everything up here by the Mekong.

I know someone who dowses his dried mushrooms with Lao Khow. Never had a day's illness; well since he was little.
