For all the blather that the EU is just like a United States of Europe, I do note that Germany and the EU don’t appear to have stepped into breach with the additional ICU and ventilator capacity that has been apparently needed in Northern Italy the last two weeks.

AUGUSTA, Maine (WABI) - Maine CDC Director Doctor Nirav Shah announced Tuesday morning that there are now 23 confirmed cases and nine presumptive positive cases in the state.
Confirmed cases have been reported in 7 different counties.
One of the newest cases is a child under the age of 10 in Androscoggin County who does not attend a day care.
I was thinking about you, Steve, and how much the news reports, of the past few days, are mirroring the pandemic simulation vid, brought to us by the Gates Foundation.
These NY are here on spring break .
Shut down that I 95 typhoid. China Virus Mary trial now .
Fl needs to block it .
Italy is about a week ahead of the rest of Europe except for the UK and they do have a vent shortage. In fact hey have asked car manufacturers to to make them. https://www.theengineer.co.uk/uk-government-manufacturers-ventilators-nhs/
thanks for the on the site info. that helps a lot in understanding what is happening
Zinc oxide and an zinc ionaphor for zinc which helps carry the zinc ion into the cell. An over the counter ionaphor is Quercetin which are in some foods.
This report on how to treat cancer is using the same system which uses chloroquine as the ionaphor which isn't over the counter
Treating cancer is the same principle as treating this corona virus the zinc will kill both.

The second method is breathing hot air of 104 deg F for over an hour. You can use your imagination on how that can be done. which isn't difficult.
I saw that. And for your information, I ain’t old but I am wise.
My point is that the EU didn’t jump in to help when their system was overwhelmed.
This wraps around to the Thalessemia / Sickle Cell question because it effects your hemoglobin

“Three workers at the air traffic control tower at Chicago’s Midway Airport have tested positive for COVID-19”
Ah, gotcha.
If it continues to spread at that rate, then we will hit 100,000,000 on April 23.
If, on the other hand just one person is prevented from getting the virus today, then on April 17, there will be about 3,500 fewer cases, and assuming a Case Fatality Rate of just 2%, that will save 70 lives.
That, folks, is why we have to take action now. Unfortunately, taking action when it is most effective will always be seen as overreaction.
One of the first things I learned in my epidemiology courses is that those in decision-making positions tend to delay taking action until it's too late. This time they're doing it right. The problem, from their perspective, is that if they take action early and it works, when the disaster doesn't develop, everyone says "See, he overreacted!", when, in fact, it was his action that prevented the disaster from developing. If, on the other hand, he takes action too late, then everyone properly says he blew it. Either way, he loses. And then there's the normalcy bias, which is strong in politicians, and apparently even stronger in you.
Several generations have passed since the force of local government has been flexed.
You can be angry and outraged. In your house.
Outside? Not so much. You will be angry and outraged in prison.
Dang.
