Thousands of Kenyan and African workers are now racially discriminated in Guangzhou #China. They are kicked out of their houses and forced to sleep on streets in chilly nights, with no food and water. They are even denied access to supermarkets.

I hope Kenya and Nigeria take note of how their citizens are treated in CCPChina, and understand that, allowed a strong foothold in their countries, this will be how CCPChina will treat Kenyans and Nigerians in their own countries.

‘A war zone’: Tijuana hospitals overwhelmed by coronavirus patients

TIJUANA, Mexico — Inside Tijuana emergency rooms and hospitals, defeated healthcare professionals are working double and triple shifts, without the equipment they need, as their colleagues fall sick, one after another.

...President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador has conceded that the system does not have the number of doctors and nurses that it needs as the epidemic begins to ramp up in Mexico.
Nurses described the situation inside Hospital General in Tijuana as “desperate” and “very grave” on Friday.

Coronavirus doesn’t delay property taxes in California

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — The coronavirus has delayed income taxes, mortgage payments and evictions in California. But not property taxes.

Friday was the deadline to pay those taxes without incurring a hefty penalty and Gov. Gavin Newsom let the date pass without taking any action. Business groups had urged Newsom to use his executive authority to delay the deadline or at least waive all penalties for late payments.

Local governments pushed back. Property tax payments are their largest source of revenue and only collected twice a year....

a hangover remedy that helps protect the liver ... The findings support the utility of DHM as a dietary supplement to offset acute alcohol-related effects as well as long-term risks, according to the researchers, whose study appeared this week in the journal Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research.

I wonder if DHM could have a protective effect on the liver for Covid?

Kremlin warns of huge influx of Moscow patients as coronavirus toll climbs

MOSCOW (Reuters) - The Kremlin said on Saturday a “huge influx” of coronavirus patients was beginning to put a strain on hospitals in Moscow as Russia’s death toll rose to more than 100.

...One ambulance driver said he had been waiting 15 hours outside the hospital to drop off a patient suspected of having the virus.

Exclusive: Russia collecting intelligence on U.S. supply line failures amid coronavirus crisis, DHS warns

...Last month, Russia flew in plane loads of medical equipment and more than 100 personnel to Italy as part of what it describes a humanitarian mission. But La Stampa, an Italian newspaper, reported that Russian military intelligence officials were also on those flights...

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/exclusive-russia-collecting-intelligence-on-u-s-supply-line-failures-amid-coronavirus-crisis-dhs-warns/ar-BB12si33

we can expect that any ‘aid’ flights from Russia or China will have intelligence officers disguised as medical officers. Their job being to report back on weaknesses in supply chains as well as methods and practices.

UK - TREATMENT STUDY

Animal studies give hope to a future where a pill could prevent COVID-19 infection

This experimental drug, known as EIDD-2801, was initially developed for influenza and two other strains of coronavirus. Being tested to treat COVID-19 and slow down the spread, this drug might be used to prevent someone from getting COVID-19 in the first place, in addition to treating symptoms among people who already have...

...human trials are expected to start mid-April in the United Kingdom....

More sedatives might make more viral load for everyone.

They better start treating poop, linens, diapers, etc as hazardous CCP-19
https://www.statnews.com/2020/04/07/new-research-wastewater-community-spread-covid-19/

This vector has been known for a long time:
F”ecal-oral transmission: Evidence that both SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV are excreted fecally suggests that fecal-oral transmission is possible. “
https://www.amboss.com/us/knowledge/COVID-19_%28Coronavirus_disease_2019%29

“Researchers from biotech startup Biobot Analytics, working with a team from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard, and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, estimate there were at least 2,300 people infected with Covid-19 in the area around the treatment facility. But at the time of analysis, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, there were 446 cases officially reported in that area.”
https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.05.20051540v1.full.pdf

and flushing toilets the same as intubation.
https://aricjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13756-018-0301-9?fbclid=IwAR1_1Pg3fmo_VSWtddlIEZPtxFhYTCMtaQSyybLH6Uh9_xoI2-Tkx2Pehow

The fecal transmission explains the massive case count in nursing homes where “poop accidents” are commmon and all of the dirty stuff(that has viral fumes coming off of it) is treated like normal not sick folks poopy clothes and linen.

Then the question comes up about how many cases have been found(or not) near wastewater plants or near fume-leaking sewer covers?

You have good ideas, but I do not think those cover all issues:

Antibodies might not work as well as people hope: Researchers do not know how long the antibodies provide immunity. Some are stating it is only a few months. patients who have been cure and tested negative are getting re-infected. Also in my last posting there is no guarantee we will have a vaccine in the next 5 years, maybe longer

antibodies article

How are we going to feed people during this lock down. The food supply chain is already starting to break. Your curbside grocery pick up will be limited on what food is available.

People are getting infected at the meat packing plants.

Meat Packing plants

Expect disruptions in food supply. You can also find where the experts expect global shortages.

Food disruptions Opinion

60 days of shelter at home is to long for the average American. You and I might be able to stay home for sixty day but the average young American live pay check to pay check with no retirement check or social security check coming in.

How will people pay for a roof over their head and food while being lock down. We are a service industry, my people are not essential workers.

Can you afford to be quarantined

Government only can afford to give out so much money before they are broke. The government needs people to work in order to bring in more money to pay out. If the government goes broke say good by to government pensions, Medicare and social security. They will start by cutting those.

Last of all I did not want to mention before, a long shelter in place will destroy the United States The folks who lose their homes and not able to feed their families will not back President Trump this Fall. This could lead to the fall of the United States. You have people in parts of the country not effected by the virus with low hospital rates, who believe all the conspiracy theories and the Coronavirus is a hoax created by the Democrats.

There is no guarantee cure, but we do have treatment options now that we did not have before to lower the death rates.    I believe we must start opening up areas not effected by the virus around May 1st to help with the issue listed above. Texas has already announce they are opening for business. Somebody got to work to provide the USA Government with cash flow and food for the rest of the country, we can not all hide at home. We must go out to fight (work) to survive for the future generations.

This could definitely help explain the nursing home deaths/situation.
