What do you think the other purposes might be? I can think of the ones I thought of right away, like no more meetings where things can be discussed, no more right of assembly.

“Do you have any peer reviewed research that says there is any risk NOT to take it?”

No peer reviewed research, but did find these:

“EMA gives advice on the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatories for COVID-19”
- see https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/news/ema-gives-advice-use-non-steroidal-anti-inflammatories-covid-19

“Could ibuprofen worsen disease for people for COVID-19?”
- see https://twitter.com/WHO/status/1240409217997189128

“No scientific evidence that ibuprofen worsens COVID-19 symptoms”
- see https://healthycanadians.gc.ca/recall-alert-rappel-avis/hc-sc/2020/72633a-eng.php

“FDA advises patients on use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for COVID-19”
- see https://www.fda.gov/drugs/drug-safety-and-availability/fda-advises-patients-use-non-steroidal-anti-inflammatory-drugs-nsaids-covid-19?utm_campaign=FDA%20advises%20patients%20on%20use%20of%20NSAIDs%20for%20COVID-19&utm_medium=email&utm_source=Eloqua

I think some of the “just the flu” Freepers were “risk on” in the stock market and other financial instruments.

Those folks have lost their shirt at this point, particularly if they traded on margin.

Check out this financial story:

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/cftc-quietly-bails-out-capital-one

One oil futures trade—a billion (yes, with a b) dollar loss that would have destroyed a huge financial player if .gov didn’t bail them out last week.

The average “investor” does not have .gov to watch _their_ back when they make stupid gambles...

There you go!

You did a search, on your own, and you found some appropriate info regarding your question.

Well, hopefully, you’re not washing your hands (and singing) in a LARGE group. :)

Nope. I was staying home before staying home was cool. But I do go around the house singing. Out loud. Guess I’m putting my poor husband at risk.

That this involves state sponsored terrorism.

That there’s more than one virus out there and we’re being threatened with the second one.

Or some other threat.

I don’t think they’d have done that with Cheyenne mountain if it were ‘just the flu’.

We can discuss *plenty* now in spite of ‘shutdown’. We’re doing it right now in fact.

We’re no more ‘monitored’ doing so than we would be in Sunday School where everyone brought their cell phones along.

And restrictions on occupancy are also adjudicated juris prudence. We just haven’t used them in about a hundred years as regards a ‘bad microbe’. LOTS of places were shut down during the 1918 flu. We just weren’t a nation of giant infantile narcissists then. ‘Bad microbes’ were our constant companions on this planet for the duration, until the 1940s/50s.

‘we’ understood such things to be necessary and nobody talked about shooting the public health officer (flubros first comments always involve ‘we need to start shooting’, ‘this is why we have guns’, agent provocateurs notwithstanding). ‘We’ haven’t been asked to restrict our actions for public health reasons in 3 or 4 generations.

I also find it interesting that some of the same flubros who want to shoot the public health officers ALSO want to call out child services because some hippy 3 counties over has an unvaxd child. In spite of the fact that said child has no infectious disease at the current time.

Yep! Thought it was important as I see occasional postings on FR to not take non-aspirin NSAID's without providing the citation for why that is the case.

Not unless you’re COVID19+.

Likely not, if you’ve been staying home.

Sing on!

True that as well.

A LOT of older people were WAY more invested in the stock market than they should have been given risk/benefit analysis for their age demographic.

A LOT.

And the market is an acceptable ‘gambling’ venue for ‘nice’ people who’d never venture into a casino because gambling is a ‘stupid tax’.

What about the whole virus attack being a distraction from military action to come? You wouldn’t need a mountain for just viruses; any old secure facility would do the job. I have heard rumblings about this or I wouldn’t be bringing it up.

A distraction AND a weakening before attack.
