Bill's Bible Basics Blog

Greetings friends. This blog post is an update to my June 25, 2020 two-part article called “COVID-19: Exposure Logging and Contact Tracing: Is It Safe?”. If you have not read it yet, you can access it at the following URL:

https://www.billkochman.com/Articles/COVID-19-ExposureLogging-ContactTracing-1.html

In addition to that article, you may also want to read my following blog post, being as it is also related to iOS devices and the current COVID-19 pandemic:

BBB Blog Post: “COVID-19: Attention iOS Users! This May Be of Interest to You if You Use the “Maps” App!”:

https://www.billkochman.com/Blog/index.php/covid-19-attention-ios-users-this-may-be-of-interest-to-you-if-you-use-the-maps-app/

To continue, with Apple’s release of iOS 13.7, it appears that Apple has simplified the process for activating Exposure Logging and Contact Tracing on iOS devices, meaning on iPhones and iPads. As I explain in the aforementioned article, prior to this current time, while Apple had already added the API — or Application Programming Interface — to iOS devices, so that these COVID-19 features could be implemented, they still required that a person download a third party app from their local health department or agency in order to conduct the actual logging and tracing.

However, with the release of iOS 13.7, that has now apparently changed. In fact, as many of you have probably already discovered, upon beginning the process to download and install the iOS 13.7 updated, Apple is being very upfront about this change, and presents the iOS device user with the following notice:

iOS 13.7 Exposure Notifications advisory:

iOS 13.7 lets you opt-in to the COVID-19 Exposure Notifications system without the need to download an app. System availability depends on support from your local public health authority. For more information see covid19.apple.com/contacttracing. This release also includes other bug fixes for your iPhone.

While Apple mentions other bug fixes and improvements, given the download time and size of the iOS 13.7 update — it is rather quick and small — I suspect that the introduction of this new COVID-19-related code is the primary feature of the 13.7 update.

Once you do install the iOS 13.7 update, if you go into the “Settings” app on your device, you will notice a new setting on the main “Settings” window called “Exposure Notifications”. In other words, unlike before, you no longer need to go to Settings -> Privacy -> Health. It is right there on the main “Settings” screen. If you click on the “Exposure Notifications” link on that “Settings” screen, you will be presented with the following window:

Now, unless you want to actually activate “Exposure Notifications” on your device, do not tap on that blue link at the top of the screen which says “Turn On Exposure Notifications“, because if you do, your device will begin sending and receiving location data and other COVID-19-related info.

Please notice too that the screen makes clear that “Exposure Notifications” may not yet be available in some areas of the world. In other words, while Apple has made “Exposure Notifications” possible on your iOS device, it is my impression from what Apple has stated, that it still requires that your local government or health department has the software infrastructure in place in order for the notifications to be transmitted to your device, and vice versa.

In short, my understanding is that Apple probably realized that a lot of iOS device users are not inclined to install yet another third party app on their device; particularly not one which may potentially encroach further on their personal privacy, despite Apple’s guarantees. Thus, Apple chose to switch the technical burden over to the local governments and health departments. That seems to be why there is an option on that screen — which is already enabled, by the way — which says “Availability Alerts”.

I could be wrong about this, but that is the impression I currently have. In fact, this may tie in directly to the “Maps” app, as I discuss in the aforementioned blog post “COVID-19: Attention iOS Users! This May Be of Interest to You if You Use the “Maps” App!”.

Now, whether or not you choose to enable “Exposure Notifications” on your iOS device is entirely up to you. From the many reactions and comments I have seen on Facebook and elsewhere, I suspect that many iOS users will decline to enable the feature. For the record, while I am considered high risk due to my age and other health factors, personally, I have no intentions of enabling “Exposure Notifications”; one reason being that I don’t wish to be placed in a situation where I will be forced to have a COVID-19 test performed on my person. As is, I have remained locked up since mid-March, other than for my monthly lab work and doctor’s appointment. Aside from that, my only exposure to other people is to my daughter and her family every few weeks when they do food shopping for me, and those visits are rather brief, and they wear masks. So, that is my position. You may feel differently regarding your personal situation. According to your faith.

So, that is the latest info I have for iOS device users. I hope you have found it helpful.

For those of you who may have possibly missed some of my previous coronavirus-related writings, following is a list of everything I have written to date regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. I believe that you will find a lot of useful, factual, instructive and Scriptural information in this material. Please feel free to share this list on your own timelines, pages, in your Facebook groups, and on any other social networks where you happen to participate. Thank you so very much, and God bless you!

BBB Poem: “Coronavirus Kooks”:

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry/coronavirus-kooks.html

While Apple guarantees our personal privacy on our iOS devices, if you use the “Maps” app on your iOS device, you will probably want to be aware of the information which is available at the following two Apple links. This first piece of information was published by Apple on April 14, 2020.

Apple Makes Mobility Data Available to Aid COVID-19 Efforts:

https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2020/04/apple-makes-mobility-data-available-to-aid-covid-19-efforts/

This second link is for downloading the complete “Mobility Trends Reports” data set which is generated by concatenating data from the Apple “Maps” app on your iOS device. This data is generated when you request directions from the “Maps” app:

https://covid19.apple.com/mobility

For the record, it was reported in our local newspaper today that our local government is now using the aforementioned data to track movement on our island in relation to the spread of COVID-19. While Apple clearly states that this mobility data is not associated in any way with our personal Apple IDs, nevertheless, it does leave me with an uncomfortable feeling. Personally, I never use the “Maps” app. However, you may. Thus, I am sharing this information with you so that you are aware of it.

For those of you who may have possibly missed some of my previous coronavirus-related writings, following is a list of everything I have written to date regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. I believe that you will find a lot of useful, factual, instructive and Scriptural information in this material.

BBB Poem: “Coronavirus Kooks”:

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry/coronavirus-kooks.html

https://www.billkochman.com/Blog/index.php/coronavirus-face-masks-or-bandanas/

Let me start out by saying right up front that I am not a health expert, medical professional, or anything of that nature. Just like most of you who will be reading this blog commentary, I am just a regular guy who tries to use a little bit of common sense, practicality and pragmatism as I survive the current COVID-19 pandemic. So, because I don’t have any credentials to support my position, you can either accept or reject the comments which follow, as you feel led. It is entirely up to you.

Having said that, I don’t mean to alarm anyone, but as I mentioned in a previous blog post a number of days ago, quite frankly, a number of people — myself included — were quite flabbergasted when President Donald Trump and various health officials began suggesting that regular people — meaning not the elitists — should resort to using scarves and bandanas to protect themselves from the coronavirus pathogens, instead of using more robust face masks and respirators.

Now, it seems to me that with all of the information they now have in their possession regarding SARS-CoV-2 — which is the actual virus which causes the COVID-19 disease — they know perfectly well that such clothing items are really just about useless, and provide very minimal protection against COVID-19, due to the small size of the droplets which are expelled when one coughs, sneezes or talks. And there are other factors to consider as well, which I mention in some of my other BBB Blog posts, such as in “Helpful Tips Regarding Using Face Masks and Respirators”, which you will find listed below.

In fact, I view it as being both irresponsible and deceptive for the president and others to have even suggested that we resort to using such items, because it will give people a false sense of security. In other words, they will think that they are safe because they have a scarf or a bandana wrapped around their face, and this is just not so. Aside from the fact that such items are probably too porous to stop the tiny droplets and the virus which clings to them, what also failed to be mentioned is the fact that if one does not remove such items properly, they could end up getting the virus on their fingertips, and their fingers could then wind up in their mouth, nose or eyes before they have been properly washed.

Equally mind-boggling is the fact that President Trump would make the announcement regarding the American public now being advised to use face masks, and then turn right around and in the same breath, basically contradict himself, and go against the advice of his own medical team, by repeatedly stressing that wearing a mask is voluntary, and stating that he does not intend to wear one himself. Wow! How confusing is that? What an example! He expects us to follow advice which even he is not willing to follow? What kind of confusing message is that sending? Well, at least Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx had the wisdom and the decency to tell folks that wearing a face mask or respirator is NOT a substitute for social distancing. In other words, BOTH should be implemented simultaneously for maximum protection.

While the USA got off to a slow start in its fight against the coronavirus — no, I won’t delve into that issue again — as many of my American friends will already know, millions of face masks are now being manufactured in the USA. I suspect that it is for this reason that the Trump administration is now saying that the American public should be using them. But let me reiterate again: Do NOT listen to President Trump regarding this issue. He is out of his league regarding this issue and speaking nonsense. As I mention in another blog post, the people we SHOULD be listening to right now are the health officials, doctors, nurses, scientists, etc., who have the proper backgrounds for dealing with this plague. We should NOT be taking the medical advice that comes from politicians. This fight needs to be led by the health experts who are in the know.

Before leaving behind the previous points, let me make one more important point which I believe validates my argument. Even though health professionals are using N95 and FFP3 face masks, not to mention other protective equipment including plastic shields, protective suits, shoes, gloves, etc., as you probably already know, some of them are STILL becoming infected, and even dying. Now, tell me something. In light of that troubling fact, how can we the public possibly expect or believe that a scarf or bandana loosely wrapped around our face is really going to protect us from this deadly pathogen which is very aggressive, and which spreads so quickly? Are our leaders taking us for fools? Apparently so. Have I made my point?

Having stated all of the above, I do understand that at this late date, some of my readers may be in a situation where they do not have any face masks. If that is the case, and if scarves and bandanas are all you have available, well then, as they say, you have simply got to make do with what you’ve got. But let me say this: Everyone who is reading this BBB Blog post has a computer, tablet or cellphone, right? So my recommendation is that you go to Amazon, or to some other reputable website, and immediately order yourself some N95 or FFP3 respirators. As I have mentioned before, N95 is an American rating which means that a face mask offers 95% protection from certain airborne particles, including the coronavirus. On the other hand, I believe that FFP3 is a class that is used by European nations. FFP3 face masks offer up to 99% protection from such airborne particles.

Now please understand that it won’t be easy. Many sellers will already be out of stock, and you will probably have to search for a while before you find one which not only still has masks, but who is willing to ship them to your region of the world. Additionally, and sad to say, you may encounter unscrupulous online sellers who charge an arm and a leg for the masks. So please be very careful, and keep searching until you find some. In my case, a brother-in-the-Lord ordered a 5-pack of FFP3 respirators for me in March. They arrived from Israel on March 18th. It was $170.00 for the five-pack. Yes, rather expensive, right? But I am told that Israel makes very good products.

I think it is also important to advise you to NOT purchase face masks — or anything else for that matter — from any sellers you see on Facebook. If there is one thing you need to know, it is that scammers are out in full force right now because of this pandemic. These people will profit from your fear if you let them. In some cases, you will either never receive your purchased product, or else you will receive an inferior product which does not match what was advertised. Many of these bogus sellers disappear overnight. My friends, I speak from experience. As I mention in my BBB Blog post called “Beware of the Vector Robot Scam”, I was scammed by a Facebook seller a number of months ago.

This leads me to my next point. Thankfully, I was able to recover my money from the Vector Robot scam, and I will now tell you why I was able to do this. If you have to purchase your face masks from a seller other than Amazon or some other reputable website, then try to find one that accepts PayPal. That way, you are protected, and PayPal will reimburse you if something goes wrong. If your item does not arrive within a specified amount of time, or never arrives at all, or arrives damaged, or does not meet your specifications, or if you sense that something else is not right regarding the seller, PayPal will investigate once you submit a claim. They will give the seller a specified amount of time to respond to the claim, and then they will reimburse you if the issue is not satisfactorily resolved. As I said, that is exactly what happened to me with my Vector Robot purchase.

But returning to the face masks, sadly, the one drawback with many of these masks is that they are not reusable. That is in fact why health professionals require so many of them. Once they become damp, and permeated with particles, it is time to discard them. From what I have read, this usually means in a matter of a few hours. Now, while this is just my personal opinion, in a tight situation, it may be possible to sterilize a used mask by setting it out in the Sun for a while; or by soaking it in a light bleach-water solution; and maybe even by microwaving it for a very brief amount of time. If you try the latter, please be very careful, particularly if the mask contains elastic. As a matter of record, when I saw my personal physician in March, he informed me that he tried the microwave solution, and his mask ended up catching on fire. I have no idea how long he microwaved it for.

Before concluding this commentary, let me say the following: In my opinion, we ALL have the right to full protection against COVID-19, regardless of our social status, and regardless of whether or not we are health professionals. Yes, I fully understand that health professionals should take priority. After all, they are our front line soldiers in this battle against SARS-CoV-2. Furthermore, I highly respect them, and I appreciate the great sacrifice which they are all making, even placing their own lives at risk, for the benefit of us all. And for the record, both my daughter and son-in-law work in medical facilities, which have become ground zero all around the world at this present time.

Yet, at the same time, as I have mentioned before, I also believe — as the Holy Scriptures teach us — that it is a national government’s responsibility to take proper care of its people; particularly its elderly, sick, poor and disadvantaged. When ancient Israel failed to do this, God rebuked them time and time again, as I point out in some of my articles, such as “What About the Poor?”. In this case, it means manufacturing enough high-quality face masks so that every single citizen is adequately protected against this viral threat. If, for example, the American government can spend trillions of dollars on its war machine, and billions of dollars on supporting foreign governments, surely it can take care of its own people, who should come first. As the Apostle Paul wrote:

“But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.”
1 Timothy 5:8, KJV

Finally, and most important of all, whatever you do, do not allow fear to overcome you. Continue to TRUST the Lord to see you through this current scourge, and He will. Don’t allow the fear-mongers and conspiracy theorists to rob you of the Lord’s peace. Cling to Scriptural promises such as the following:

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”
2 Timothy 1:7, KJV

“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.”
Isaiah 26:3, KJV

“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”
Isaiah 41:10, KJV

“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
John 14:27, KJV
