Does anyone know if positive tests for the flu are ever preserved? I would expect the great bulk would be disposed as medical waste, but if any are preserved, could those collected in Sept-Dec 2019 be tested again to determine if the Wuhan coronavirus was already in the USA then?

And is there a way to test for antibodies cheaply and quickly? If so, and if a significant percentage of the US has those antibodies, perhaps the panic curve can be bent down sooner.

The answer is they are tossed as waste. They don’t have store space AND you do t want this crap laying around for any amount of time.

“Taking cocaine will not cure people struck down with the coronavirus, French government warns public“

Makes sense.

The plan in Indonesia was to pray to allah to protect them. Not kidding. At the end of January the Health Minister said they were praying...praying really hard.

I guess it wasn’t hard enough.

“God helps those who help themselves” perhaps not an old Indonesian saying?

“30 days and we will all be back to normal”

Maybe in 30 weeks. In 30 days I fear we’ll be a far sight from normal.

“ Coronavirus Can Live in Patients for Five Weeks After Contagion”

“ Patients with the new coronavirus keep the pathogen in their respiratory tract for as long as 37 days, a new study found, suggesting they could remain infectious for many weeks.”

So much for that whole 14 day thing. After three weeks, though, half of them won’t aspirate the virus, so there’s that.

Moderna is a gates involved entity.

I’ll pass on whatever they’re producing.

Gates is just as likely to release something that we find later sterilizes a good number of the youngsters that get it.

It means level 4 protection.

Remember the video of the ‘flight attendants’ on the Kalitta Air flight out of Wuhan?

Their own air supply even?

That.

Level 3 is what the hospitals are using with the bunny suits, face shields/goggles/etc. That’s imperfect for this disease and one reason so many medical professionals are getting this.

I’ve never thought Rush was on our side. I’ve always thought he was loyal opposition.
