Yep. Hope he survives it.
Saw a few articles about how they are counting those who died and want to make sure I understand them:
In Italy if someone dies who has the virus it’s classified as a Covid death?
In Germany if someone dies who has the virus they are blaming it on underlying conditions like heart disease, copd, pneumonia?
But isn’t the pneumonia brought on by Covid?
dont know how this costco store got so much TP

Would like to know that too, I meant.
The only group that is NOT really at risk for a significant percent hospitalization is the under 25’s.
Even 30+ is at risk for long term hospitalization from this.
That’s the issue here.
If the insurance companies get hit with massive payouts at once we are ALL doomed. Quarantines will cause a great depression. If that derivative black swan takes flight, the depression will be the good old days.
Not to mention those of us who end up with million dollar bills on top of what the insurance has paid out.
As far as ‘get a handle on how to treat this’, those antivirals really ARE a game changer.
That’s why you’ve seen so many articles, today, on how ‘dangerous’ they really are.
The goal is to destroy the economy. Destroy it more than just what a quarantine will do.
The left WANTS those derivatives unwound quickly. Once the rubble is complete they will step in with a new global currency and global ‘system’ to replace what we have now.
I am watching the video—thanks for the link.
This guy is very good.

That’s because New York is testing far more than any other state..they have to identify those positive and get them quaranteined, which is basically a lot of what this testing is about along with asking people to just stay home.
**** Ohio ****
Essential businesses defined:
Hygiene orders. Distance Orders Separate hours for designated population
The training bases could be especially hard hit. Lots of people crammed together on fairly small area.
Vaccine...one must realize we have a vaccine for the flu. How many still succumb to the flu each year? Unfortunately, genetics play a role in the recovery of novel and new viruses. There lies the true antidote, especially when combined with complete and optimal nutritional intake. Emergency meds will save those that need to be saved and only time will get neutralize this virus caused disease. Fear will only paralyze and destroy its host.
We should be doing far more testing, IMO. First the issue was no or little tests were available. Now, as mentioned in yesterday's briefing, para., "testing uses up too many of our limited personal protection equipment."
In South Korea and Singapore, who've had the best success in fighting this, they've tested way more than we in the West. And when someone has it, they do the tracing to see who've they've had contact with.
Knowing if/who has it is beneficial in many ways. Those who have it, and know it, can start treatment sooner, take even greater steps to avoid contact with others, and etc.
But that's just my anecdotal observation - perhaps Harvard will to do a study...
White House briefing at 4:30 today.
“I am firmly of the opinion at this time that the media hyped panic and the FluBros are just two sides of the Panda Propaganda agitprop.”
I think it’s just freaking the hell out of a lot of people.

Shame on me. Fake news on ME.
The headline says 80% will get virus.
But in the body of the story, it says:
"... said up to 80 per cent of New York could become infected"
and:
"...Cuomo said up to 80% of the state's population could get sick..."
and:
Cuomo quoted - "But 40 per cent up to 80 percent of the population will wind up getting this virus."
Really? This is what passes for journalism? Numbers ALL OVER the place. Could becomes will? What. The. Hell.
