Anyone able to hunt down total US ICU inventory, coming on line over 24-48 hrs, and planned back-log?

Trump’s speech weird.

[RummyChick]

Now White House journalist shows symptoms of coronavirus and number of press at briefings is slashed amid questions over whether Donald Trump was directly exposed

[OKSooner]

Fauci is conspicuous by his absence, and Dr. Birx looks maybe a little stressed...

[miserare]

No wonder. They refuse to self-quaratine.

Of course, they need to get out for necessities...ciggies, wine, and prostitutes.

[RummyChick]

Trump is not going to put up with some dude doing facepalms and various antics behind him.

[Mariner]

Trump just mentioned the “variations in the virus”.

When will they use the word “mutation”?

Those who observe closely know the virus has mutated and become more virulent.

[LilFarmer]

I believe the countries who were going to let it “burn through” may have changed their tune when they saw how many under 60 were ending up in the hospital

[BusterDog]

If I were the Russians or the Chinese, and I wanted to cause dissension in America right now, I would be paying people to harp on the, “It’s a hoax”, “Shutdowns are unconstitutional!”, “It’s a Democrat attempt to take down Trump!” themes.

Curcumin with Lipid molecules (fats) that have attached phosphorus.

The viral coating is a lipid (why soap, among other surfactants and solvents, destroy them). In phospholipidated curcumin the former is probably the “delivery system” for the latter, but once you’re past the coating it could probably just as easily be dirt (ARF!).

“That’s some angry FluBro math right there.”

You made the MISTAKE of treading into the territory of one of our self-anointed experts. To them, we are Amoebas, due to our intellectual inferiority. They work in the field, and therefore know FAR MORE than we can even comprehend, and have little time for our common sense, and they show it in their treatment of us PIONS.

I’ve run across them in the past. I simply label them as ‘special interests’ and immediately DISCREDIT whatever they have to say, as they’re answering to their outside contacts, not us, and not even what they may really think (if you got them alone). Their mission is to PROTECT those they are close to (and themselves), rather than have an open mind to how we’re all getting screwed over.

[miserare]

So are lying, bombast, egocentricism, vileness, nastiness, and crookedness.

[Black Agnes]

The mortality of this virus is bad enough.

The morbidity is horrifying.

[RummyChick]

Is there a product on the market...like this one?

https://www.amazon.com/Liposomal-Curcumin-Amy-Myers-Supports-Inflammation/dp/B07ND52VS7/

[OKSooner]

True dat.

[cgbg]

China could still do a “burn through” with the rest of their country—only a very small percentage have been infected to date.

Italy actual daily fatals down for 2 days now. It's happened before (see series below), but by only deminimus amounts. Yesterday was a 25% drop from the high (601 v 793). Most likely an anomaly, but everyone is starting to pay attention.

It it drops again for another 2-3 days, people are going to be itching to cheat the coming market ramp-up. Italy is approx 8 days ahead of the US.

Honestly I’m of mixed thoughts on that one.

I think you we talking on a previous thread about your VA benefits and how they re protected, and can't be taken by a judge, etc.?

If the economy collapses, your VA benefits are just one more unsecured debt owed by the US Government. Bondholders of bonds backed by the full faith and credit of the USG will be ahead of you - and they won't get much either.

With permanent lung damage.

Just like iron lung kids.

[BobL]

““Houston mayor does not want to issue stay in place.”

Not until tomorrow or Wednesday at least.

So many INSIST on waiting until it is completely out of control to act.”

Well, there is a good side to his waiting until the entire city is infected, less traffic in the future!

I guess.
