They can trigger ‘hypercoagual states,’ causing blood clots that lead to heart attacks.

I’m guessing it’s a combination of both. Hopefully this will be studied more now because it seems significant.

there was a pix somewhere recently of a woman getting a manicure by putting her hand thru the mail-slot in the front door and the manicurist was on the front porch.

I can just picture someone with their head hanging out the kitchen window, while someone standing on the outside colors their hair. :)

I’m also not convinced that the nicotine patch will have the same effect as it does when inhaled.

It’s almost as if they don’t subscribe to the germ theory of disease or something.

So, if you’re on lockdown for weeks, who is it you’re having the manicure for? Husbands/boyfriends?

Today’s Speak.

Both National “news” and Ohio Press conference with Gov. Dewine, highlighted mental health psycho issues. No mention of the Faith

Updated projection below. We did take a turn for the better, as I suspected we would yesterday. Fatalities seem to be following the case trajectory by 14 days. Seems to take about 4 days from the time someone is infected until they go to the doctor with symptoms. That means the latest spike in fatalities probably started with activity around the 1st and 2nd of April. This is when many receive their government check and do quite a bit of shopping and resupply. If anyone knows of other reasons, let me know. First graph is my analysis. Second is updated US projected fatalities.

““All confirmed cases, suspected cases, close contacts of asymptomatic people, and close contacts of close contacts should be quarantined and tested,” state media cited the city government as saying.
The province as a whole reported 537 confirmed cases Tuesday, Reuters reported. “

Anyone think a grade schooler say kindergarten through 3rd at least can keep a mask on? And hands clean?

I know they dont. Remember every person who has given me a flu the past two years. A couple real bad ones. If I get Corona, going to pay them a visit. Just kidding.

Between the Department of Health and private labs, a total of 49344 tests have been conducted, an increase of 1647 tests since yesterday (Tuesday).

Currently 240 patients are hospitalized for COVID-19, an increase of 3 from yesterday (Tuesday). 107 patients are in ICU, an decrease of 10 from yesterday (Tuesday).

“Rats.”

Can’t be that bad, yet, but got any good recipes?

I believe there was a small mountain of data created on vaping/nicotine that maybe can be drawn on as a starting point, including fine points: compounds/concentrations. Comparing states who may have a higher rate of smoking than others is another immediate starting point. Sounds like it would be interesting research.

Nope.

We’re more into the bambi recipes right now.

Rats are a lot of trouble for little food.

“You just want to kill people. Legally.”

Yet another proud spreader outs itself.

There is something very wrong with some people.
