Are they bringing them back from all countries, or just ones without ‘adequate’ medical resources?

I’ll try to remember that. If I ever get to the store again to buy fresh milk!

Wish I’d know this 6 or 8 weeks ago.

Maybe you could buy smaller containers of milk. Surely there are a few nooks and crannies where you could stick a few1/2 gallons, quarts, or even pints?

Ya, I could probably make room now.

I’ll have to see if an opportunity to get fresh milk presents itself toward the end of the month.

Try making some hash with it. That is our method to make it more appealing.

are we all looking at the same thing? (slightly edited from my late post to yesterday’s thread)

Korean study of 100 patients was released and talked about today. Citing chloroquine use on the recommendation of China (30 days after the fact)**.

The French micro-study used Placquenil paired with Azithromycin, an antibiotic. (Did the CCP whisper to France, too?)

U of Queensland will conduct a much larger study to look at the efficacy of the treatment on viral suppression, but also the possible role of hydroxychloroquine’s buffering aspect in preventing cytokine storm (and the role of cytokines in supercharging viral replication)...

*Treating COVID-19 with chloroquine, as is being done in South Korea and China does have the potential to lead to a mutation.

**In early February, Chongqing Kangle Pharmaceutical was requested...to promptly increase...production of... chloroquine phosphate

Ah, somewhere I’d read about the separation and that then one could not easily get the milk to re-homogenize.

But if that last is not true, then I’ll try freezing some. Subject to VERY limited freezer space @ the moment. Right now, our fridge and freezer are pretty stuffed. But, if I can get two gallons in there, that’d reduce grocery runs to 13 or 14 days apart, if I can get my daughter to drink a little less milk too. (We typically go through 2 gal. a week, plus a gallon for Mom, but, she’s got her own fridge and I can probably make room to get 1/2 gallon in her freezer. That’s reserve mostly for her, tho’, as she’s 1-1/2 hours away.)

Thanks for the info.!

(I’m gonna remember this for the next time, whenever that is, that we go camping. Double thanks!)

I think the ChiComs actually war gamed this out.

They're idiots then. If not for the USA, China would be speaking Japanese several times over. They may look modern but their buildings fall over like dominos because it's cheaper to find a rock for a cornerstone instead of digging footings.

I’ve read that Taiwan’s success actually had to do with China. China was punishing Taiwan by not allowing tourists to go to Taiwan. So it was easy for Taiwan to shut down.

remember this? it seems so long ago...

” The difference could have something to do with the fact that the gene for the ACE-2 receptor, which is used by both SARS-CoV-2 and the SARS virus to enter host cells, is found on the X chromosome, she speculates. If it’s a particular variant of the protein that makes people more susceptible to the virus, then females could compensate for that one bad variant because they’d have two copies of the X chromosome, whereas men would be stuck with only one copy”
