He’s just trying to troll you. He’s a FluBro.
Take a close look at that viewer question at the bottom of the screen. Top Kek.
“Actually , I believe in freedom . I like to look at all sides. Does your comment mean I am banned. That would be very leftist of you. Also, am I a troll if I disagree ? That would be lunacy. So many apparently are driven by their fear. Sad. Many need to abandon their weakness and be strong . Life is risky . Deal with it.”
You are just here to stir the pot, that’s what makes you a troll, not whether you disagree or agree. Your self-reported behavior puts others at risk. Apparently you justify that with some degree of fatalism. That’s extraordinarily selfish, to impose your views on others against their wills. How leftist of you.
How many people a day is Big Pharma and WHO killing because the are pressuring politicians, Google and Facebook to downplay use of cheap, available vitamins like Vitamin D and Vitamin C, just so they can focus on big money with vaccines and new drugs? Also insisting that clinical trials ought to be held for off patent, modestly priced drugs like hydrochloroquine that they also won’t make a fortune on. Even though the degree of safety vs. side effects is well known.
That’s weird. Or maybe I am. I always work my fingertips into the opposite hands’ palms right when I start off (sanitizing or washing hands.) Maybe that’s because I do so much stuff that gets gunk under my nails and when handwashing, unconsciously figure the 1st thing to do is get soapy water in there to start it working... It (carrying over to sanitizer) just seems the natural thing to do.
Maybe there should be instructional vids for sanitizer use? Somebody could have sneezed on those bananas, you know...
(In fact, during my last Wal-Mart grocery run a few days ago, there was a woman (no mask) near the bananas who let out a pretty good sort of cough / sneeze, about 90 deg. to me. I was at least 15’ away, with my N95 & prefilter, so I figured no big deal for me, but everyone else (5 people?) within 10-20’ had no mask. They shrank away like Putin had dusted her w/ polonium.)
LOL. I like it.
Someone who is asymptomatic shouldn’t need CV unless they develop harsh symptoms, because asymptomatics are already developing antibodies.

You may be on to something. I was wondering why zinc sulfate, instead of zinc picolinate, myself. My niece had the HCQ regimen without any zinc at all. And I've read some reports which say we get enough zinc in our food and additional zinc isn't necessary.
IIRC, the recommended zinc sulfate daily dosage for the HCQ cocktail was 220mg. That's six times the daily recommended DV. Doubt we're getting that much in our food.
Obviously many doctors, e.g., my niece's doctor, are treating with only HCQ. I too feel a simple review would be helpful, including a study with zinc picolinate as a substitution for zinc sulfate.
“With allergy season coming on.” I am allergic to house dust, cool weather mold, cigarette smoke, and ragweed, so am in allergy season at least 6 of the months of the year. I have been taking from 3 to 6 grams of Vitamin C a day for almost 50 years. It really helps. Some in the morning and evening and once or twice during the day since your body excretes excess in 5 or 6 hours. When my nose gets clogged I take 500 mg or 1 gram. If my nose has not opened by 1/2 hour, I take some more.
When I was a child, age 10 and on, one of my jobs was to iron 36 cloth handkerchiefs a week for my hayfever suffering father. When I finally discovered the value of Vitamin C for allergy, I got him interested. I also had him take 250 or 500 mg. of Pantothenic Acid to strengthen his adrenals. He never had another bad hayfever season again finally dying at age 90.
The question is how would the level of virus on the outside of a mask compare for a health worker hovering over very sick people versus someone walking past and infected person at six feet distance.
Our entire HCI needs to be deregulated to the point were even Amazon and Walmart can compete for our HCS dollars.
Thank you and copied for my growing file, and further viewing after a good night’s sleep.
I think it will be a long, prolonged infection rate with continued numbers of people dying. Or - it will start to spike again and they will want to shut things down again in order to keep the hospitals from getting overloaded. Avoiding hospital overload is about the only thing the shut downs are for as far as I can tell. Although hopefully some of these treatments will be found to work - or stamped okay by the Feds, and that will be a huge boost.
Acquaintances live in California - we are in Washington State. My wife got a text from them. “Hi there - so I hear the flu is gone now up in Washington. We're just getting it here now so we have to wear masks. Hopefully it will be gone as quickly has in Washington.”
I have NO idea where they are getting their information. And I thought California was only a week behind Washington in shutting things down? And no - the "flu" isn't "gone" yet.
Agreed on the reduced threat if 1% of the virus is remaining.
It’s a matter of reducing risk. It’s very challenging to eliminate risk. There’s going to be risk, in all sorts of things we do. Heck, the flu has risks of death associated with it.
But we all make an evaluation on risk and how much we can live with. A lot of the time, we do it without even thinking about it.
I’m hopeful one good outcome of awareness of COVID-19 is a reduction in flu. Hand washing should be a helpful practice. The same for people working while sick.

Harry: “Yeah, the extra $3 adds up!”
Marv: “No - my finger nails are REALLY dirty.”
