The death numbers aren’t people dying on the street, tho. They are those poor souls infected 3-4 weeks ago and vented 2-3 weeks ago. Time for families to make the hard decision that 50% of men and 40% of women aren’t going to survive venting, either because the lungs are shot, or other organs are shot. The most important numbers to watch now are new ICU admissions. That number will start dropping like a rock as people stay home and stop infecting each other.
Exactly. Carnegie was deeply involved in this. They had mountains of waste product to dispose of. They promoted the perfect “capitalist” solution. Sell it to municipalities to put in the water to prevent dental decay. Weston Price has much to say about the causes of dental issues.
There is going to be a very ugly “second wave” learning curve.
“This kid is 17, and he built a site that tracks Coronavirus numbers. He was offered $8million to place ads on the site, and guess what he did …”

A good site, should have taken the dough.
Reasons any second wave will be nasty:
—Any country starts from a higher baseline of infected people (rather than 0) so the virus can spread in very large numbers very quickly.
—Because of the latency period and the lack of proactive testing in most countries, it will take a couple of weeks before the case numbers are shown to rise, and another week or two before the hospitalization rates start to rise.
—A month for this virus is _forever_, even if it only doubles once a week the hospitalization rate would explode before the country knew what hit them.
—Example—suppose a country currently has a 1% infection rate and it doubled each week. In a month the infection rate would be 8%.
“Requests to delay mortgage payments jump nearly 2,000% as borrowers seek relief during coronavirus outbreak”
Blatant propaganda.
It fails to recognize the most basic fact of economics.
Even if your economy miraculously gears up factories to full production, if your foreign customers are out of business you go broke.
So much for the Chinese “recovery”.
HCQ is approved. 24% of patients are getting the treatment, probably more by now. Many patients with heart disease and digestive issues should stay away from these drugs.
You want us to call the President and tell him to use a drug they are already using. Does that sound like an efficient use of our time?
I react badly to any chemical in that chemical family, so haven’t used fluoride in many years, and all that time has not had one cavity.
I simply floss very carefully and brush with water.
You get used to it.
I’m sure POTUS knows about these ‘vids’...and all of the studies being done in US and worldwide, on HCQ/Zpak success treatments.
The staff is taking half days on Sunday. They report for 10am deadlines. They don’t for 5 pm deadlines.
So they pick it up on Monday.
For the hospitals, reporting dead people is not as big a deal as it is for the counters here on FR.
This cycle has been going on for weeks.
When my kiddos were littles, they got 20m sun at midday every day it was useful to do so. They also lined up every night for their 6 or 8 drops of Thornes Drops.
No orthodontics for any of them. The only grandkids in a large family that didn’t need them.
Using Trump endorsing a drug is as funny as Sebastian Ghorka promoting his diet scheme.
The phrase, “Stay in your lane” comes to mind. I think Trump sounds silly when he goes off on that.
It’s starting to sound like a stock charting forum.
One of the things you learn on them is don’t fight the tape, Hope is not a tactic, and one day does not make a trend.
Economy note: Been needing a new roof and windows for my home and out building... Usually hard to find help/labor in this area - companies act like they are doing you a favor coming by - closed a $60k+ deal today and the company is very happy for the business... The workers are starting to feel the pinch of this close down as are the companies..
Countries where penetration is very deep, like Italy, are going to have a tougher go in the coming months than South Korea, where they attacked every cluster early. I suspect Italy with be battling at least 5X the number of new daily cases as SK for the foreseeable future.
“McDonald’s in HK will resume dine-in services in all branches from 6pm on Wednesday, the company said in response to media enquiries.
The restaurants will observe restrictions rolled out by the gov recently. Customers with a fever or not wearing a mask won’t be allowed in.”
How do you dine-in while wearing a mask?
We’ll soon know...
