it certainly can!

I think it is important to do medical research which includes statistical differentiation for different races. IMHO all other statistics should be done without reference to race. Those stats are harmful and not helpful.

The USA is a multicultural nation. We used to be a constitutional republic where individual liberty and responsibility was valued.

I take 2 ‘baby aspirin’ each morning...................

Unless, you are over 6’5” and 250 #’s, 1 baby aspirin is probably enough.

I was on one in the morning and one at night. The cardio told me to skip the morning dose and just take the evening one. Also, don’t lay down for 10 minutes after taking the evening dose. That was on my latest note from the pharmacy.

This was so totally known over a year ago.

Shame on Trump, Fauci, etc., for not getting it blasted high and low (along with zinc, C and D) instead of the friggin’ Operation Warpspeed, lockdowns, masks, etc.

[9YearLurker]

It was discussed by many banned experts at least as far back as 13 months ago.

Lockdowns also have been very harmful in so many ways. Telling people to stay inside instead of going outside in the fresh air, getting exercise and vitamin D, the natural way which comes from the sun, has been outrageous. Playgrounds were locked down for months.

Many community swimming pools didn’t open last summer. Course the elites had either their own swimming pools or belong to Elite country club switched it open.

Is Fauci purely evil or just so enamored of himself that he craves adoration and power above solving problems?

Mine was doctor’s orders after my heart attack and Quad By-pass in April 2020................

There is an extreme correlation between rates of obesity and deaths from Covid among countries, with a rare few exceptions like New Zealand, which is an island and thus capable of keeping people out.

There are probably several reasons why African countries have such low rates of Covid deaths. One of them may be their very low rates of obesity. Another may may be routine use of hydroxychloraquin for malaria prevention. A third may may be be that they have a much younger population in general then do the United States and European countries.

That’s it.

You follow your doctor’s orders.

I was diagnosed with AFib about 6 years and the cardio’s wanted me on the same dose as you.

My cardio at our current PPO cut the dose to one a day and wanted to eliminate the second. My wife and I convinced him to leave it to one/day to avoid strokes.

3 years ago I needed an aorta stent. After the procedure the top stent doc wanted me on your regimen for a year and two blood thinners.

After that one year, their top stent doc told me to take a baby aspirin before bedtime as long as I was on this side of the grass.

Their pharmacy treats the baby aspirin like an RX drug. My cardio writes for a 90 day supply, and I pay a small price and the aspirin is mailed to me in a standard Rx vial along with my other drugs. They want us to use it and not over do it.

I just use Sam’s store brand................

“In a retrospective study of individuals tested for COVID-19, vitamin D levels above those traditionally considered sufficient were associated with a lower risk of COVID-19.”

The principal source for D is the sun. Healthy people spend more time in the sun. Healthy people are less susceptible to the virus. Does Vitamin D provide protection or does being healthy?

I have heard Fauci in the slip of the tongue admit he takes 6,000 IU each day. Strange he never recommends it

“Best form of D3 is Carlson’s Norwegian Cod Liver Oil,”

I take Carlson’s fish oil in the winter for my dry eyes, (Helps a lot) and once accidently picked up their cod liver oil.

Well remembering the smell and taste of it because of my Grandmother, it took me weeks to give it a try. It smelled and tasted fine!

The virus uses ACE2 receptors to infect.

Obese people have many extra ACE2 receptors, kids very few.

Just got news that a friend that I used to drive to church years ago, passed away this morning, ostensibly from “covid”.

He resembled this photo very much.

Going to miss you, Ed. Hope you made it to Heaven.

[Georgia Girl 2]

That’s not racist or anything. 🤔

[Trillian]

I’m on 5,000 iu. I will have to look up the NAC.

[SecAmndmt]

You want to take about 30 to 50 mg/day.

I believe the FLCCC home protocol suggests increasing it during illness.

I take about 30 mg chelated zinc daily. If I start feeling under the weather I also take Quercetin.

You should be able to get zinc through Amazon. Mercola and Research Biotics also both have it, typically. There are others. Feel free to PM me.

Very sorry to hear about your friend. We’ve had a number of family members who’ve passed because of COVID and one who had a stroke after taking the vaccine and quite a number made sick by it. A couple still have not gotten their sense of smell back completely. We take our vitamin D3 religiously.
