I think it obvious. If:
a. Tom Hanks were to die of the coronavirus, and
b. Donald Trump never catches it,
it would be a convincing proof that there really is no God. Lisbon 1755 would have nothing on that inducement to a crisis of faith.
Depending on mood, my seriousness here ranges between 50 and 95%.
And by the way: I just checked on Google Maps, and he's barely 62km from me as the crow flies. I feel I should go and stand on the footpath with a sympathetic placard during the weekend. I hope he tweets something positive about his treatment at what is, after all, a pretty new and modern hospital.
And one final thing: can you imagine what his death in Australia would do to our tourism industry after the appalling fire and smoke apocalypse of early 2020? I think we should all just start growing potatoes and chickens and back yard now, just in case Australia has to permanently close for business....
Most of us will get it if we don't have it under control by winter. Nothing special about Tom Hanks.
