CDC coronavirus prevention and response
CDC.gov ^ | CDC

Posted on 01/23/2020 1:41:06 PM PST by Tilted Irish Kilt

How to protect yourself (from coronavirus):

"There are currently no vaccines available to protect you against human coronavirus infection.
You may be able to reduce your risk of infection by doing the following:

(#1) .. wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds
(#2) ..avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands
(#3) .. avoid close contact with people who are sick "

Also:
(#4)..stay home while you are sick - don't spread the illness
(#5) ..avoid close contact with others
(#6).. cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, then throw the tissue in the trash and wash your hands
(#7).. clean and disinfect objects and surfaces, especially plateware, silverware, TV remotes, cellphones commonly use by many people.

Save this one - we might need to get permission from the mods to run this every few days if the virus comes here...

I highly recommend activated charcoal when traveling. It absorbs toxins.

Really not sure if it can help with water issues as that is parasite related (I think) but it is a miracle cure for food poisoning. However it does absorb other meds you take with it...as that is it’s purpose.

GOPJ :" Save this one - we might need to get permission from the mods

True that !
That is why I listed it both under the Infectious disease and Prepper ping list
The "self-treatment" and "protect yourself" are quite valuable and informative
in terms of response to viral infections.
Personally, I believe that it is just a matter of time before it shows up here,
what with the Chinese New Year holiday and the frequency of holiday airline travel.
What concerns me is the fact that the CDC is 'reactive', rather than 'pro-active'
with it's response to viral infectious diseases.
The most protective response should be :" Close the Borders " !
"Don't let it in !"
But that wouldn't set well with the globalists or with the UN - but I repeat myself.

“I highly recommend activated charcoal when traveling. It absorbs toxins.”

That’s why I was so healthy growing up. My mother used the smoke alarm as a kitchen timer!

Seriously though, we couldn’t use a smoke alarm as we cooked year round on a wood fired cook stove. Lots of charcoal as temperature control was difficult.

You are welcome.

We’ve used it for years.

another thing very effective against flu and other viral infections is Munity Boost.

I use it when traveling and anytime I’m around sick kids or adults.

I only use the Munity Boost version, since it includes liver support.

“Not mentioned yet at CDC website is use of an ‘N-95’ face mask”

Maybe better? n99 mask.

This thread is missing the real issue.

It is the absenteeism that will result IF IF IF this does go pandemic. A 30% sick rate with a 2% mortality rate will result in a least 50% absenteeism rate from people who are sick, caring for sick family, caring for kids because step #1 is close the schools, or just plain scared to go to work. This absenteeism will have a cascading effect on our just in time economy causing shortages, exacerbating the effect.

For the vets out there, think Iraq in OIF1 when no systems (SWEAT-MS) were working.

For the beer math bubbas, 30% / 2% = 100 million sick Americans and 2 million dead in 6-8 weeks. For comparison, there were 2,813,503 deaths last year.

Yes, this is an argument for rice, beans, and 5.56.

and finally, I did say IF IF IF....

When people sneak into other countries and don’t give a she-ite, how in hell are you supposed to know if you came in contact with this virus. The governments around the globe refuse to shut down the ChiComs air travel!!!!!

The CDC should be shut down forever just for the flaw of not mentioning getting a vitamin d3 blood draw, and dosing yourself until your blood measures 60-70 or more during this flu season.

Really, it’s negligent health care.

You’re very welcome WildHighlander57!

I have only used the Munity Boost, being afraid to risk the rash using it straight!

I’ve never had a problem.

In my experience over a few years, I can say it stops the virus from multiplying and gives your immune system a chance to kill what is left.

Air traffic originating in China should be shut down.
