Scott:

Right now you could fit the “fully recovered” group in each state into a phone booth...

Most folks were not tested, so they would not even know if they had it and were recovered.

Actually, would like to see % of those not just released from hospital intervention, but those % of those released that were on ventilators while hospitalized.

Yeah, I quite understand that heavy restrictions / economic disaster can eventually kill more people than the virus does (under restrictions.) So, somewhere there is hopefully a balance, but I don’t think we can get there without a BIG drop in transmission during everyday activities, even amongst low risk groups. That will take education, billions of masks, numerous handwashing stations (and not just at places like Wal Mart), changes to HVAC systems, and so on.

“Scott:

Agreed, but a month from now the number of recoveries should start to increase more.

“Most folks were not tested, so they would not even know if they had it and were recovered.”

Good point, I wonder if it’s possible to develop a test that would confirm you’re fully recovered, maybe a test that compares the blood work and antibodies to patients that they know for a fact have fully recovered? Probably plenty of people out there who have recovered from mild cases and don’t even know it. Not a medical expert, just wondering if it’s possible?

I believe President Trump is providing enough time for the hydroxychloroquine tablets to be available in massive quantities. Mylan Pharmaceuticals is starting production this week on 50 million tablets with delivery in April. Teva is donating 6 million and Bayer an additional quantity.

I’m taking Quercetin and Zinc. Also using colloidal silver spray after potential exposures such as grocery shopping.

forgot to put conclusion

Receipt of influenza vaccination was not associated with virus interference among our population. Examining virus interference by specific respiratory viruses showed mixed results. Vaccine derived virus interference was significantly associated with coronavirus and human metapneumovirus; however, significant protection with vaccination was associated not only with most influenza viruses, but also parainfluenza, RSV, and non-influenza virus coinfections.

"...and police and army forces will patrol the streets to check if people are outdoors..."

A question- would you suggest that we do that here? To see if people are even outdoors and if so, to order them back in under force of arms if necessary?

Who say’s they’re immune? Who say’s they aren’t going to get that second wave? They still shed the virus for months.

I do not fit into the pro-vaccine or anti-vaccine camp.

My view—I want everybody else to get them so I don’t have to.

I like Campbell. Good man.

No so good man, Sch-it-mer is running his trap on the floor of Congress.

looking backwards...

https://www.ptcommunity.com/wire/seasonal-influenza-vaccines-forecast-asia-pacific-markets-2028

The late stage pipeline for seasonal influenza vaccines in the 3GM includes the first quadrivalent seasonal influenza vaccines in China from Sinovac, Chongqing Zhifei, and Wuhan, as well as a quadrivalent formulation of Fluad.Quadrivalent live-attenuated vaccines will launch in India (from the Serum Institute) and Japan (AstraZeneca's FluMist, licensed by Daiichi Sankyo).

--------------------------------------------------------- Really havent seen why the Brits were warning people who gotten flu shots that they could be at risk for this ... still snoping around
