    That is definitely world class cello playing, by far.. what a touch she has and her dynamics are just emotionally moving. Nothing needs to be said about Jonathon’s voice that hasn’t already been said from the second he auditioned for a Britain’s Got Talent. The man has a world class voice like none heard in a long time. He was just born to do this and we are just lucky to share in it.

In some the virus took advantage of that just like the flu does and they died. They sent a memo/directive telling the hospitals to list covid 19 as #1 cause of death even if they didnt test for it and what really caused them to die as #2.
