Woo, A&M only lengthened Spring Break 2 days leaving more chances for the students to catch it in Miami or wherever the parties are.

Thank you, Tucker. FNC doesn’t know anything that’s going on in the world outside of Bernie, Bernie, Bernie.

Thanks for the correction! I got the newspapers mixed up.

Epoch Times is the one to maybe trust, not Global Times!

IIRC the first really affected ones in Italy were members of a running club.

Maybe the exercise caused deep breathing and voila...serious case.

I am in some kind of weird limbo land with all of that because I also have thalessemia....which one of the things is to take folic acid.

SO I take nothing.

I once made a mistake in saying the wrong dosage of lisinopril/hctz I was taking over the phone to the Dr and she freaked and then wouldnt do a renewal on my prescription because it could effect potassium...heart attacks etc.

That is very close to what happened. Infected lab animals which were ordered disposed of were instead covertly sold to a local exotic animals meat market.

I don’t think it’s anything nefarious. Rush is a sportscaster who talks politics. His hubris won’t allow him to keep his mouth shut regarding this pandemic. Considering the size of his radio audience, his downplaying of the wuhan flu is akin to practicing medicine without a license.

1% fatality is 10-12 times worse than the flu.

And a disaster.

Interesting. Lisinopril is a diuretic, so I would have expected it to decrease potassium levels. That’s good it is just the opposite.

States have authority on health matters. Any laws congress passed, or regulations by departments, don’t overrule that.
We’ve a federal system. Much though the national media hate that.

Great.

What about the passengers who came in contact with them?

He might .
Rush L is not the person to be handing out medical advice and
health issues ideas . He was a pill pooping and a big smoker .
This virus would
make short work of him if he is exposed .
His flu comment was the last time for me.
Beyond reckless and just stupid . He did alot of damage .

But nearly half of the first victims had no contact with the market.

I wonder if something got poured down the wrong sink or something was misplumbed and it ended up in the river. And the animals therein. And the market by accident. Would have possibly exposed other people who were near the river, dunno.

We’ll likely never know the truth and those that did have gotten a bullet in the head.

oh so I got it wrong...it’s the opposite. lower potassium.

I knew it was something about postassium...I just know when I mentioned the wrong dosage on the dirutic the Dr would not renew my prescription because thought I could have heart problems created by taking too much. I was outside and just misspoke but once I said it nothing else I could say would fix it.

does this mean that those who are asymptomatic do not shed? or that their shedding is immaterial when treating an active patient?

from the link:

At facilities that had significant numbers of exposed healthcare workers they did allow those with low and moderate risk exposures to return to work well before 14 days.
Only HCW with highest risk exposures were excluded for almost the full 14 days (I think 9 days).
After return to work, all wore surgical masks while at work until the 14 days period expired. All had temperature check and interview with employee health prior to start of work, also only until the end of the 14 days.
Obviously,
only asymptomatic individuals were allowed back.
8.Symptom onset is between 2-9 days post-exposure with median of 5 days. This is from a very large Chinese cohort.
9.
Patients can shed RNA from 1-4 weeks after symptom resolution
