Thanks. I have a 5 and 10mg here as well. I have insomnia issues do my dr encouraged me to use it. I really should have given it a chance. I understand how it works. It’s just not going to work unless I do my part - ie shutting off the tv, electronics, lights etc.

“Not a chance.”

Some are not displaying their stupidity quite as flagrantly.

Others are taking up the slack. :/

[Black Agnes]

One of mine would’ve slept through just about anything.

Bad thunderstorm, weather radio going off...not fazed at all.

[Black Agnes]

My problem as well. after midnight and here I sit :/

And I’m sure there are NYers who look down on you.....But if it makes you feel somehow superior, good for you.

if you knew how I live you'd realize how absurd it is to say I live like a rat.     and I'm sure new jokers look down on me, the same as ivy league trust-fund morons do.

I drive where I want, cook my own sanitary food with no added 'illegal' spit or hep C, live apart from city streets, homeless cities, m13 and mafiosi.

new jokers' superiority is EXACTLY the same as the claimed intellectual superiority of the hollywood numbskull class.

Yep. Though they were chunked and had some isolation and prophylactic measures to keep them less vulnerable. We don’t have a good view of what the real penetrance of an unaware population looks like. Yet.

That was from my notes anyway.

Here is a nice report from Stanford Medicine. Dont know if posted before. Has ratings on materials to use for constructing masks. And also rates procedures for disinfecting masks for reuse. Was done to assist medical staff with shortages.

So how long does Coronavirus last on a Frito ? What about the Flaming Cheetos ?

No one on FR, in NY or elsewhere gives a rats ass how you live, or what you think.

I'm not sure, did you say you lived north of the burgh?

My wife (MD) is on lockdown as the rest in her health system. Things are changing. I suppose I'm am both shocked and not surprised that her health system has a better grip on it then the evil empire with the large Black Death Star downtown.

Average crash deaths per day is 115. Average flu deaths varies, but for the low end flu death number during flu season it’s about 100 per day, or averaged over the year, 60 per day. high end flu, 300 or 180 per day. Roughly.

So if you pick the right stats, yes.

But many fewer people are out driving or giving each other the flu of late, so ????

food for thought - use and drug resistance to antivirals used in China HIV populations

Prevalence of acquired drug resistance mutations in antiretroviral- experiencing subjects from 2012 to 2017 in Hunan Province of central South China

The first line regimen of HAART given to patients in Hunan Province China is a triple therapy choosing from d4T, AZT, TDF, 3TC, Efavirenz (EFV) and nevirapine (NVP), all these generic drugs produced in China. Lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r), produce outside China, is the second-line drug.

“U.S. coronavirus death toll hits 1,000 as New York City reports more than 80 new deaths.”

My son and I were driving home at 2 pm last Tuesday the 17th - a week ago.

I recall he commented on some twitter feed - “Wow - 100 dead now due to the coronavirus.”

[HollyB]

Lol. You’re not alone. You’re with Freepers!

[Varsity Flight]

Sec of State Pompeo sure acted like he knows their numbers are rigged, from his Wednesday language.

Thanks for the post. I am cautious with melatonin because of some unwelcome hormonal changes. Will review and post later.
