“Seoul Mayor says 85 new #coronavirus cases now linked to Itaewon club case. “Next 2-3 days will be a critical time. If Seoul falls, the country falls,” Park Won-soon. #COVID19 #Itaewon”

This is a homosexual outbreak- readers of Western media may nor be aware of that as that was censored.
Intimate contact with asymptomatic strangers is the key of the transmission (whether homosexual or not).

Google says Italy has a 60 million population

I dont believe there are only 1500 non transfusion people in Italy. Maybe they were talking about just the Northern Region.

Something seems off.

However, there have been signs of progress over the past week.

New cases have been trending down for a couple weeks, and deaths are following the trend down. Mid week numbers should be somewhere around 1500, then back down below 1000 for sun/mon. Hopefully the trend of new cases and deaths continues down and in a couple weeks, active cases start dropping as more recover that get infected.

And if there isn’t?

I expect a change in metrics from reopening. Not much though. There seems to be a limit on the virus. Not sure what it is, but it’s there.

Yeah, agree the weekend numbers are encouraging - but get corrected later.
The trend is our friend though.

Hope the trends continue.

“Active cases”- is totally dependent on testing.
Not sure what to make of that. Some places are well tested, some not.

If I were dealing with this I would try high Vitamin C, if it helped great, if not the body eliminates it in 5 or 6 hours.

Loss of taste and smell are signs of Zinc deficiency. Zinc is used up quickly when ill with Covid. If HCQ is given early, there might be enough zinc present to limit the illness, but giving added zinc is going to be a lot more necessary for the many who are deficient in it.

A strategic approach to COVID-19 vaccine R&D

By Lawrence Corey1,2, John R. Mascola3, Anthony S. Fauci4, Francis S. Collins5

1. Primary endpoints that involve reduction of disease require greater numbers of enrollees into trials, given that asymptomatic infection is estimated to be 20 to 40% of total cases of COVID-19 (8).

[estimated by whom? is there actual data showing that high of a percentage of asyies?]

2. The possibility of performing controlled human challenge trials, in which a small number of volunteers are vaccinated and subsequently challenged with SARS-CoV-2, has been suggested,,, However, this approach has shortcomings with respect to pathophysiology and safety (12).

Although much of this focus is on trials in the United States...

[Americans, of course, and as usual, being the chosen lab rats, for to select any other ethnic group would be ‘racist’ to loosely quote WHO’s Tedros, comment of 2 months ago re: trailing vaccines in African nations]

3. Collins told Bloomberg on Monday. “They’ll have somewhat different characteristics of where they work best, so we might need to do some matching then of which vaccine goes to which particular population.”

[definition of populations? age group or ethnic tailoring?]

MESSICO

Mexican border town uses ‘sanitizing tunnels’ to disinfect US visitors from Covid-19
Authorities in Nogales, Sonora, are hoping to reduce chances of bringing the virus over from Arizona, one of the states most affected

...On the Mexican side of two major border crossings, drivers coming from Arizona must exit their vehicles and step into an inflatable tunnel that sprays them with a cleansing solution.
Videos posted to social media by the municipal government of Nogales, Sonora, show people rotate under the vapor, stretch their arms and lean over to allow the disinfectant to reach their entire bodies

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/may/11/mexico-us-sanitizing-tunnels-coronavirus-covid19

do we get to do this to messicans coming the other way, too?
