I learned about apoptosis theory two decades ago when my daughter was getting her PhD. So when I heard the phrase “Free Iron” I knew immediately. Which is why I say that “Free Iron” is not a Disease mechanism, it is a Death Mechanism.

Two kilometers of crowds at Dhaka funeral. Going way out on a limb and predicting more than a few new cases of CV in the next few days. Maybe they'll spit in drinks to get even more cases.

I don’t know what’s going to happen, but we’re on a bad road. Things have changed. I don’t know if they will ever go back.

I lean toward this being just another, but far stronger, birth pain.

No social distancing. Sure, lets see how many more cases we can get right when we’re opening up.

I’ll be there holding up that limb from underneath, bgill ! And more deaths in a couple of weeks, give or take a few days either way.

Did Xi Jinping Deliberately Sicken The World?

Sadly, it's quite possible, given that he allowed international flights out of Wuhan, but not flights from Wuhan to other parts of China.

If we ever defeat this monster country in some sort of war, whether physical or otherwise, when it's all over, we should have Winnie the Flu and his idiot cronies brought over here to stand trail fro crimes against humanity, followed by hanging from the neck until dead on the National Mall.

I’m guessing the ones with a strong antibody response will be at least partially immune to a second infection, depending on which strain hits them next.

Exactly what I though was additional evidence, after reading this.

If factions were going to go at each other, it should have already started. But not a peep so far.

Wonder how soon Trump will invite the Xi couple back for a stroll through the Rose Garden?

He has a maddening habit of avoiding the obvious at times.

The poster suggested it would occur after Xi and the CCP implode. Basically local thugs would then be competing for power.

I don’t really know how things work in China. It may as well be an alien planet to me.

Thumbs up from me. We can get back to our lives if we’re smart, and take the necessary precautions until the invisible enemy is defeated.

Finally talk about closing the subway. But what about the people who depend on it for their essential jobs? Bus takes 5-8 times as long. Ubers and such too expensive for most people.

Too bad Javits and the Comfort are both contaminated now--they could have used these for temporary living quarters for essential workers.

Went back and counted 17 folk were wearing masks. Probably missed some. Not counting the cheapo plastic kids’ princess Halloween mask (or whatever that was) or the red bandanna at the back that was around the guy’s neck.

And he’s not letting Chinese citizens back in from Russia.

Wow....more than I would have expected.

We went to Tractor Supply curbside, yesterday, and only saw about three masks....out of a lot of people (coming in and out of store)....most older and overweight :(

The ones who either shouldn’t be out, at all, or....at least wearing a mask.

And that is why the US is going to lead the world in number of dead from this. We're just not taking it seriously. We think we're not going to get it...
