Cody Lenert
SGS 2019-2020 President

WOW, I really do not know where to start.  The world has changed dramatically in the last 2 weeks and it seems to have affected all in some way.  The last time oil prices dipped this low was in 1998-99 which is the year I graduated from college but by the beginning of 2000 they had risen to over $40 per bbl.  There are plenty of negatives to focus on at this time, but I was sent an email today with lots of positives, some of which are below:

Spread the Good News!

  • China closed down its last COVID19 hospital.  Not enough new cases

  • Indian doctors successful in treating COVID19.  Combination of drugs used: Lopinavir, Retonovir, Oseltamivir along with Chlorphenamine

  • Researchers of the Erasmus Medical Center claim to have found an antibody against coronavirus

  • A 103-year-old Chinese Wuhan grandmother has made a full recovery from COVID-19

  • Apple reopens all 42 china stores

  • Cleveland Clinic develops COVID-19 test that gives results in hours

  • Good news from South Korea, where the number of new cases is declining

  • Italy has the oldest population in Europe, thus the hardest hit

  • Scientists in Israel likely to announce the development of a coronavirus vaccine 

  • 3 Maryland coronavirus patients fully recovered

  • A network of Canadian scientists are making excellent progress in Covid-19 research 

  • A San Diego biotech company is developing a Covid-19 vaccine

  • All 7 patients who were getting treated for COVID – 19 at Safdarjung hospital in New Delhi have recovered

  • Plasma from newly recovered patients from COVID -19 can treat others infected by Covid-19

The Wine dinner April 17th has been rescheduled to November 20.  The Continuing Ed class and Spring Fling dates are still a go at this time but could be postponed so please check your email for updates. 

I present to you the following 3 members nominated to serve on the board for a 3 year term starting July 1, 2020:

  1. Travis Harrell – Stroud Exploration Co.

  2. Michael Danos – Toledo Mudlogging, Inc.

  3. Bezany Branton – Jones Environmental

Until we meet again, stay safe and stay well!
