Good idea. Thanks for the post. I'll repost one link and add another. Restricted eating is a good start to bring HbA1c under control. A critical exception to high BMI are elderly. Elderly may be thin outside, however fat inside (TOFI).

COVID-19 Disease: ORF8 and Surface Glycoprotein Inhibit Heme Metabolism by Binding to Porphyrin

In addition, patients of novel coronavirus pneumonia are most of the middle-aged and elderly people. Many of these patients have underlying diseases such as diabetes. Diabetic patients have higher glycated hemoglobin. Glycated hemoglobin is a combination of hemoglobin and blood glucose, which is another reason of the high infection rate for older people.

“Families are going to have to pull together to see each other through...We need to get back to that anyway.”

Damn right, and maybe Millennials will stop pushing for Drag Queens recruiting little kids.

In fact, if the virus was around since Oct or Nov with few infected, it’s mutated stronger with time, not weaker.

That really depends on if previous deaths were diagnosed as pneumonia with no eye to COVID-19.

School's out for summer ever. Juvie halls will be overflowing in a week's time. There will be an up tick in births in 9 months. On the up side, kids will be out of publik skools.

we still haven’t effected herd immunity to H1N1. What makes anyone think that there will be herd immunity to a more virulent strain such as Covid?

Lock the virus down. If Junior gives it to his parents, or Cindy home from college gives it to little sister, we find the superspreaders faster than all the testing in the world. Identify and isolate the superspreaders and the risk goes down.

so sweet !!

None of that is realistic if you ask me unless the government mandates the banishment of all property debt.

You can’t keep people from working and then let the banks ravage them with foreclosures.

Are we sure President Trump is the leader we wanted?

I read an article about colleges and how this will cutdown on liberal indoctrination because they are going to have to structure their classes and pre-record for online delivery will should (hopefully) cut down on professors adlibbing indoctrination to students.

BUSY BEACH! This is what @MyClearwater Beach looks like right now as spring break crowds flock to the sand. #Clearwater leaders haven’t decided if they should add a curfew or close beaches but they may vote on measures related to the #coronavirus this Thursday. @abcactionnews

My doctor did tell me that getting the flu shot would “jump start” my immune system.

[BobL]

“His point was that the virus moves faster than our ability to track it...So, when you are acting to take steps you have to “assume” it is at point D, even though you are currently at point B.”

That’s been OBVIOUS since the Wuhan Outbreak - or it would have been nipped in the bud. The problem, though, is that it takes public health officials THREE FULL MONTHS to realize the same.
