This is from a 1987 study, I wish today’s coronovoris could be tested with raw milk

After experimental contamination of bovine raw and heat-
treated milks with bovine rotavirus and coronavirus strains, we
observed a strong viral inhibition only with raw milks, from
which virus recovery was 5 x 10^%. Between 30% and 80%
of the virus was recovered from the heat-treated milks, depend-
ing on the level of inoculation.

Lilly has to read a bunch of disclaimers when you call. Fda paused it due to two lesser variants and cant restart until Fda lifts the pause

I don’t understand why lesser variants mean a pause?

The Delta variant test is specialized, and very expensive. Is this so hospitals can make more money?

Who told you that?

Any PCR test will identify it as a SARS CoV-2 variant but no more, and a genetic sequence will identify which variant.

It costs more to determine any variant - you need to run the genetic sequencing - but there’s nothing special about Delta.

when trump closed the border and started the wall project he got hammered from people on both sides of the isle...

when the kung flu magically appeared trump got hammered from people on both sides of the isle for not doing enough to stop the spread of the virus...

biden becomes president and opens the border now all of those people that did all of that hammering are suddenly silent...

either this strain is less deadly or our treatment methods have gotten better

As a conservative podcaster likes to say, "Two [or more, I'd add] things can be true at the same time."

Again, no mention of protection provided by natural immunity for those who have had the ‘rona.

Nothing but the PUSH for the vaccine. The more Vacc. Covidians refuse to discuss natural immunity, the more I tune them out.

… We are gravely concerned regarding the arrival of a new variant from South America,” Salmon said. “This is a mutation that is currently in the process of overtaking the Delta variant in the United States, and if it reaches here, it will significantly damage our chances of being able to avert another lockdown.

“The vaccine we have is less effective against this new strain of the virus,” he added...

Not hearing anything in the legacy media concerning deaths. Not a peep. That alone speaks volumes.
