Not the same technology. You're conflating 5 GHz band WiFi with 5G mobile technology that follows 4G LTE. The 5G mobile has transmissions in the 60 GHz range. Very line of sight. Low latency. Requires LOTS of tower sites as it doesn't travel far or penetrate building well. It's in the ionizing range that can damage DNA. That's the origin of complaints.
5G can leverage MIMO/beam forming techniques to put more signal directly to a device. That's available in current wireless routers in the 2.4 Ghz / 5 GHz with multiple antenna arrays.
If that bacteria is the problem, adding something as simple as amoxicillin to to the malaria juice should take care of it.
Yes, and Italy seems to be doing much better.
Indeed. Thank you for your uplifting comments!
Good idea! Thanks for the suggestion.
Have you guys noticed the really low recovery rate for the UK?
What would you expect from socialized medicine!! This is exactly why Trump sent 4 of the best minds available in the USA to London with every tool WE HAVE to get Boris through this, I believe Trump said they brought anti viral plasma also!!!
As Italy's mitigation policies reduce infections to a trickle, the next phase will be exiting from social and economic lockdown. Even in a very compliant society like South Korea, a month after new cases dropped off, they are still battling clusters that produce 50-100 new cases every day. In Italy, the virus has much deeper penetration, so while the mass death may be over, the virus will continue to do its best to return. The world will be watching Italy for answers, then Spain, France, etc.
Our last grocery trip was 3/16. On Monday we did a “grocery pickup” —we ordered on line and picked up at the store. Then unloaded everything outside and sprayed/wiped with disinfectant before bringing into the house.
That was basically milk and perishables. Got enough milk and butter to freeze. Everything has a limit of 2, but that is per brand name. For example, you can buy 2 gallons of milk from Organic Valley and 2 gallons of milk from Prairie Farms, but not 4 gallons of Prairie Farms.
You have to reserve a spot. You are allowed to reserve today and tomorrow. Best time to get a slot is after midnight. Even after you check out, they might be out of your selection. So you either do without or make a check mark to let them select a replacement.
The bummer for me was that the eggs I like are from the local farm—free range and those aren’t offered on the on-line choices.
Anyway, it was an interesting experience. Our state-wide stay at home order went into place on Monday. Our county and about half the other counties do not have a case reported yet. Our Governor finally caved to the enormous pressure by the St. Louis metro(and other metro areas) RATS.
I ran across Dr. Ban Truong’s youtube channel. Maybe he’s been mentioned here but I haven’t seen it. He shares a lot of his experiences treating patients with hydroxychloroquine + Zpack. His treatment also includes supplements: Vitamin C 2000 mg, Vitamin D3 5000 IU, Zinc 15 mg and Copper 1 mg.
Here’s a link to one of his case studies videos and there are several others related to this type of treatment. He talks about his own experience having hepatitis at the beginning and how that made him empathize with his COVID-19 patients which was somewhat interesting but you can skip ahead if you want to get to the COVID-19 content. His videos are the most content I’ve seen from someone treating patients with hydroxychloroquine + azithromycin. He uses doxycycline for some patients. Less zinc than Zelenko but he seems to think the lower amount is enough.
Do you have any local sellers of free range or backyard flock eggs?
At present we have a small egg surplus. (We only have 9 hens, and one of those is setting on eggs*, but being spring the girls are fairly busy.) Took 6 doz. to friends a few days ago. (The husband is a smoker - big risk factor, wife is a germophobe (smart now) w/ some health issues too.)
*I swapped in fertile Black Copper Maran eggs** from a local seller of such and the rooster (Amberlink / Easter Egger mix - very colorful and handsome roo that looks almost like some sort of hawk) who had earlier been merely a bit protective of the hen immediately “attacked” and broke two eggs! So he’s screened off, now. Agghh...
**Really nice, big, dark (for eggs) brown eggs. Am hoping that the game bird in these will help with predation of mice & young rats, once the birds are grown up. Really wanted buckeyes but can’t find any locally — most online sellers are really high $$$ or out.
Also somewhat encouraging (but may be affected by undercounts):

My apologies if this was already posted on this thread - not enough time to read everything!
Question regarding Vit. D and being outdoors:
Would not the benefit of being outdoors depend on degree of cloudiness and, even more, on how “covered” one is? In cool weather, most likely only one’s hands are fully exposed, and the face / head may be partially covered, esp. at temps below 50 deg. F, or even below 60 deg. F on breezy days.
Has anyone reputable studied this / developed specific guidance?
We should be in the low 80’s with mostly to partially cloudy skies the next couple days, so I hope to be out gardening quite a bit, but, after that we are back in the 50’s. (At least he rain is supposed to be overnight B4 the temp. drop.)
Interesting anecdotal account regarding warm temps and disease course.

I would guess it’s the actual average air temperature in the lungs / respiratory that might have some effect, by raising the average temperature of the surface cells?
Granted that one would have to monitor their fever extra carefully to keep THAT from being fatal.
I also caution that one of our family members knows a couple in Central Philippines who both passed away over last weekend, from Covid-19. It is very hot there now. OTOH, these were well off people (both doctors) and were probably in AC most of the time (almost certainly while ill), and may well have had massive exposure.
