So Coronavirus cells get dismantled with cheap drugs that have been extensively used for 40+ years.
Hydroxychloroquine and azithroymycin are both very cheap, generic medicines that work with zpak, zinc and vitamin C. There is even a head lice drug they mentored works too that they are looking at as well. In fact I think the drugs are almost over the counter.
So it looks like the President Trump Cure is already looking like tremendous success, we dont need Bill Gates patented drugs not do we need to wait for a 2 year trial from CDC.
Apparently USA weekly hospital deaths for pneumonia (avg. 3000 people a week) have plummeted and Coronavirus deaths have taken their place.. indicating cause of death is definitely sketchy.
It's funny Bill Gates bugged out on Friday the 13th thinking this was going to be his pandemic but it's looking like a dud.
- keep fucking that chickenscruffics
- The 'President Trump Cure' is Remdesivir. Chloroquine + Azithroymycin is only effective in mild to moderate cases (ie. not that helpful to those presenting atkingsteven
- What they're not telling you is Forsythia is the cure!shapesalad
- hospitals). Favipiravir seems to be more effective. Ivermectin (lice drug) destroyed cells in the lab (so does bleach), but would not work in practice.kingsteven
- similar to how most cancer drug research is about developing the delivery system/ targeting cancer cells. there are actually a ton of these papers:kingsteven
- "X as potential treatment for Covid-19" it's actually insane that a preprint paper on Ivermectin gets regurgitated through media to "works" in your post...kingsteven
- the reduction in daily deaths is mostly due (apart from the natural curve of the pandemic) to non pharmaceutical treatments/ shared knowledgekingsteven

- Z pak is the generic name for azythromycin, idiot. And it’s not a trump cure either. Who fed you this nonsense?monospaced
- thank god we have a doctor in QBN... We're safe, not like those 70.000 people that died alreadydmay
- "This level of stupidity isn't humanly possible, right?" is a rhetorical question I have stopped asking about you. Shut the fuck up bobo.garbage

U.S. Department of Labor Announces New Cares Act Guidance on Unemployment Insurance for States in Response to Covid-19 Crisis
https://www.dol.gov/newsroom/rel…
excerpt...
Under the Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation (FPUC) program, eligible individuals who are collecting certain UI benefits, including regular unemployment compensation, will receive an additional $600 in federal benefits per week for weeks of unemployment ending on or before July 31, 2020. Additionally, the Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation (PEUC) program allows those who have exhausted benefits under regular unemployment compensation or other programs to receive up to 13 weeks of additional benefits. States must offer flexibility in meeting PEUC eligibility requirements related to “actively seeking work” if an applicant’s ability to do so is impacted by COVID-19.

The Trump drug looks like it's become the protocol for treatment of the 2019 Flu from the Chinese Wuhan market.
- Couldn’t be further from the truth. It’s not a trump drug. It’s just a standard anti malarial one. It’s the start of an 8 week study to see if it works at all.monospaced
- It’s not even close to protocol.monospaced

Prime Minister Viktor Orban can now rule by decree. Doctors worry he won’t use that power to improve the country’s coronavirus response.
...The main facility used for testing at that time, St. Laszlo Hospital in Budapest, was also helping to spread the disease rather than contain it, because infected people were unwittingly mingling there with those yet to catch the disease, the readout stated...

An open letter from a Seattlite:
Full disclosure: Without saying too much, I work in medical publishing, and have friends that work in hospitals.
Now I'm going to say too much, feel free to skip this wall of text.
December: Higher-ups were worried about Seattle being the vector city for COVID-19. For a multitude of reasons that I could bore you to death with, among them being a large Asian population with the means to travel home for CNE, the whole ACE2 receptors thing, and our disproportionately large homeless / uninsured population that could become a petri dish that spills into America.
January: Researchers tested for it, and were shocked out how easy it was to find from someone who had recently been to China. Then they found a novel infection. They were labeled as whistleblowers, and the CDC halted further testing.
Seattle had the first reported infections and deaths in the US, but the current administration was worried that it would be a bad look for a re-election year. Go back through any of my comments in this thread, I've been saying this for months.
It's the worst "told ya so" ever, but it needs to be said that the long-term worry IN DECEMBER was that a very deadly thing was coming and there would be massive long-term repercussions if we treated it with a hand wave.
It's been incredibly frustrating to have friends be all "Hey fuck it, let's go to the park!" when I've been washing my dog after every walk and disinfecting my groceries since January. This has been mishandled in a giant way, and frankly a lot of that falls on having a fucking clown at the helm during a time when we as a country need actual leadership.
Future fun topics:
Quarantines trigger pregnancy spikes, so in the next 7-9 months we will be seeing #coronababy as an actual hash tag. These kids outpace the vaccine projections, and other coronaviruses have shown a high transmission rate from mother to child.
Coronaviruses tend to have a marked lethality rate for people with diabetes. Recent stats have China, India, and Amercia as the highest diabetic per capita in developed nations. We're talking approximately a quarter to half a billion people that are very high-risk.
It also has a higher lethality rate to the old and immunocomprimised, but one thing that isn't really making the media is the respiratory compromised. Good luck to everyone on the west coast after our record number of fires the past couple of years. Shout out to Australia. We're walking around with lungs older than our D.O.B.
Increased xenophobia. We already have a fucking lunatic idiot that has an idiot lunatic fanbase that has already committed crimes on his behalf. For hate reasons. Asian Americans will be targeted in the US.
Look forward to riders on future bills being shoveled through that further eliminate your rights to privacy, because they will rival the Patriot Act.
On a personal level, I have friends that have spent 5 years on a startup, and have finally gotten to brick and mortar status. They've lost 95% of their clients and that shit isn't coming back. I haven't lost that much, but I'm nervous.
I'm ranting now, so I'll just end with a giant fuck you to the "it's just a flu" or "lol corona panic much?" types. Just need to get that off my chest. If you still have that mindset, come over here and lick my fucking doorknob.
The crow on my corner probably has it, and you can eat that for desert.

re: Diabetes, above - I'm probably going to be shat on by karma for saying this, but one thing I've noted in the daily-reported "Not-so-old person with no underlying health conditions dies from C-19" stories is that a lot of them are 'a bit hefty' - not fat, not gross or anything - just a bit big-boned. ie. the sort of people, now that you mention diabetes, who might suffer from the condition without necessarily recognising it as such.
- had this image in my head since reading about the overweight middle aged male 'superspreader' in china (carried the virus for 49 days until plasma treatment)kingsteven
- i got dumped on a week ago for posting a podcast that specifically mentioned that obesity was a factor in mortality and why it was going to hit the USA hard.MrAbominable

- overweight increases risk i read 2 two weeks ago.neverscared
- I more meant being 'solid' rather than overweight. But yeah, point taken - no novel thinking here. It was just something I noticed.Nairn
- "novel" thinking.MrAbominable
- Yeah, my thoughts exactly, ppl not knowing they had underlaying issues and appearing healthygrafician
- The weight itself isn’t the issue. It’s just an indicator for actual issues, like hypertension and diabetes. Like Nairn said, unrecognized at the time.monospaced
- I’m probably a bit big boned by your estimation. Not even close to fat but not even remotely skinny. I’m scared risk, but I’ve also had a strong immune system.monospaced
- Year after year my wife and son get the flu. Bad. Really bad. Wanting to die bad. Year after year I barely get fatigued and I’m basically swapping spit all daymonospaced
- I’m starting to wonder if we already had it and didn’t know.monospaced
- the average person in the UK is overweight, the average person in the US (BMI~29) is borderline obese. just another thing to add to the causation calculations.kingsteven
- but it's all statistics... plenty of really healthy bigger folks out there. obesity could be a multiplier if other conditions or age added in to the mix.kingsteven
