This is nothing more than a political induced panic.

Last night I had a thread pulled for suggesting that maybe getting into a sauna might help..or use a type of hyperthermia to fight it once you get this chest cold-that is what the son of a B^&CH is, a CHEST COLD.

Its got that bad. Its over the point now that I believe that the mass hysteria will result in violence on the streets over supplies.

I also mentioned a study by Israel about using heat to combat the cold virus. And what this WUHOO flu is, is a virus.

Well here it is.

“I think the death rate per 1,000 in the USA will be vastly lower.”

Probably, we don’t live in a third world country and we have a vast health care capacity better than most in the world. But, if you notice, all the comparisons we are fed are from countries that don’t have the capacity and/or are overpopulated along with a disregard of the facts that actually happened here in the US. It’s the flu, folks.

In regards to two countries:

Iran -- the country did not realize the disease until way too late, and their cultural norms made the spread of the disease happen very quickly. It didn't help that many of the "guest workers" in Iran come from China and spread the more virulent SARS-CoV-2 pathogen.

Italy -- the large elderly population, many of whom were lifetime smokers, made them very vulnerable. Even more so because a number of Chinese from Wuhan work in the clothing industry in northern Italy, and many of them went back to China over the Western New Years holiday period, just when the disease was really spreading around Wuhan with the more virulent SARS-CoV-2 virus.

Well that is a relief, because in all my prep, I didn’t get any hand sanitizer at all, because I’ve always been a person who washes my hands with soap. Now usually I use ultra Dawn at the sink, so I’m not sure how effective that is on corona.

My dogs play outside, they get dirty, I touch them, so I have to wash my hands often, maybe 10-15 times a day.

Get exposure, not necessarily sick. I think many millions have been exposed without getting sick. I believe it's a question of volume, below a certain level, the body can handle it, and even possibly develop resistance. Over a certain amount, illness happens. I would imagine with all of the air traffic that has come through our airports, that millions have been exposed to a degree without ever showing symptoms.

In fact, I would think they would right now be testing a vaccination involving injecting a small part of the virus to see if the body develops resistance.

Go to Tractor Supply and get some betadine livestock wash, if you’re concerned.

Best stuff on earth.

Even plain old peroxide is good.

480,000 deaths over next 3 to 7 months is what he’s saying..

Following the election of Trump, the stock market started to take off. I recall another really, really smart financial guy on CNN predict that it was only a brief spike and that it would soon crash and never recover........

Just because these dudes have letters behind their names doesn't mean crap and that's what this guy is full of as well as his co-fear mongers........

“480,000 deaths over next 3 to 7 months is what he’s saying..”

and yet the PRC, a commie country with a population of 1.4 billion (three times the U.S. population) apparently had about 3,000 deaths before supposedly bringing the virus under control ... even if the PRC death toll is TEN times that, no where near the BS prediction of a half a million deaths

publicizing these wild claims by the various expert Professors X’s is just more gasoline being added to the fire of panic that the fake stream enemedia is spreading ...
