Evil.
Interesting.
PLAGUE PANIC Coronavirus overwhelming Ecuador as bodies are left rotting on streets and morgues bursting with corpses
Government officials claim 400 bodies have been recovered over the last few days in the port city of Guayaquil....
...Doctors have said up to 1,000 patients are day are arriving at the city’s largest hospital Los Ceibos.
Medics have said while many are false alarms, the sheer numbers are pushing their resources to breaking point.
Ecuador’s national nurses association said up to 370 of their staff have been infected with coronavirus, and five have died.

Horrific!
The Chinese, before the communist party took over, have generally been our allies. We also have a common enemy, Islam.
Worse thing we could do, is to underestimate the Chinese. The most read book about waging war, even today, was written in the 5th century by the Chinese strategist Sun-Tzu, called The Art of War - maybe you've heard of it?
The above said however, my biggest fear is a nuclear Perl Harbor style first strike attack by the combined Chinese, Russian, and Iranian forces. Knowing our undersea warriors are out there 24/7, watching over us, is the only reason I can still sleep at night.
I have not been able to get a hold of my friend in Guangdong province for several months. It is weird, I get emails from her business address but it is addressed to My Friend and I can clearly tell it is not her emailing me. She also doesn’t respond via wechat but yet it appears to still be active as I see pictures of things having to do with her company. I have known her for many years and this is not normal.
It’s the only reason anyone has any sleep besides the grave.
Yes, those are cumulative deaths. And I believe that number will drop a lot, now that we have strong quarantines in effect and perhaps with some success with HCQ treatments and so forth. In fact, if HCQ treatments were 100% effective, and we treated 100% of the patients, in 2 or 3 days, the ND/TD ratio would be zero.
Praying so.
We also need our drug manufacturing capabilities to ramp up, yesterday.
Asian women are super mean. They act very quiet and demure in public and then at home go all “white bone demon”. (Reference to Mao’s wife)
My MIL was Asian, and I thought it was just her. However, my kids went to International school and I had a few friends who were from California and were married to hapa men as well. We would trade stories about our crazy Asian MILs. It is definitely a thing.
Not uncommon to hear on my husband’s answering machine (at the time) messages from my mil like,”Your brother not come home last night, I chop his head off”
Make that 5th century BC...
What bothers me about the use of HCQ and other “off label” drugs is that docs don’t use them unless the patient is very, very sick.
Earlier in the disease they may have a much better result.
No idea, I can’t find where I read it now. It was around the time the Indian researches came out with the HIV delivery system announcement.
Yes we do.
Moon phase ( an old farming science) predicts the virus will be done April 22.
(Hey. Why not?)
“I’m surprised at that. Way back at first someone offered that a 200K sample would be sufficient to predict 360M. Well, we now have 3 mil tested, or 1 in 360. So shouldn’t we be able to predict infection rate from the results of 3M?”
Not really. It is multiple populations and many are tainted samples. For example, in many places you don’t get tested without symptoms, in others they track down everybody your grandmother ever spoke to since 1963.
All we can really confirm is that not “everybody has already had it” as the tainted samples run 10%+/- or so positives (a week ago, statistic) but are heavily weighted toward active areas. Looks like the numbers are bigger now, though. In the hot spots they are behind in testing and everywhere else is low volume.
If you sampled 10,000 people totally at random you would have a sample more accurate than your typical election poll. 200,000 would probably nail it to well less than 1% margin of error (not doing the math right now, though).
And still they didn't give it to her, just sent her home to recover after a three day stay in the hospital. And I swear she has the same neurological symptoms blueplum posted the warning about upstream.
If you read the HCQ plan floating around the net, supposedly by the doc you came up with the HCQ cocktail, it says to administer even prior to testing if signs of congestion in the lungs are evident - that just takes a chest X-ray.
Please do not reply to those emails. I get some like that as well, and never open them, as I can tell that the headings are not written by a human.
Maine company reports 43% increase in broadband demand from mid-March!
It could happen.
