I picked it up when Vermont LT was not available.
He picked it up from, I think, janetjanet998 or Jane Long.

But it’s been running since Jan 24th, the day after the China quarantine. We just lost continuity of numbering.

They never say if the BP was under control, or untreated.

Remember that Italy is in triage mode.

That means maximum effort is made to save lives of the young and previously healthy.

This makes the statistics self-reinforcing.

That the thing, chloroquine is already available.

You can probably go to the CVS, Walgreens, WalMart and Costco with a prescription and get it right now.

I took cholorquinine last year before I went to Asia as a preventative for Malaria.

If you drink tonic water, that bitter taste is quinine.

There will now be a run on tonic water.
