Trump calls emergency meeting with top US health officials at the White House Wednesday
“We’ve passed Japan, “Others” and Switzerland and pretty soon, we’ll be passing Germany, France and Spain. Then we’ll be right there with Italy and 3rd world shitholes. “
hogwash ... you have to look at per-capita cases to have a valid comparison ... the U.S. has a population much greater than Japan, Switzerland, Italy and many others ...
"Rep. Carolyn Maloney, chairwoman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee, said a hearing on the U.S. coronavirus response had to be cut short as a result [emphasis added].” —Trump calls emergency meeting with top health officials at White House, top lawmaker says
From freeper rintintin:
Remembered!
Remember in November too!
MAGA, now KAG! (Keep America Great!)
Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA will effectively give fast-working Trump a third term in office imo.
But our immigration and social welfare policies have turned us into a 3rd world shithole - with some nice middle-class neighborhoods still persisting around the edges.
“Announcing EVERY new case on social media, traditional media is just driving panic and increasing anxiety. There has to be a more responsible and reasonable way to announce statistics than any particular media outlet blaring it five times over an hour on a Facebook post.”
You should have told the CDC to get some test kits from other countries in addition to whatever they were doing in dragging their feet on testing. I don’t see why the gov’t has to be in total charge of testing all sorts of medical issues.
Given the media and gov’t hype regarding the situation in China over the last few months, most knew it was coming to the US and just need to know when it gets to one’s ‘hood so one can at least partly hunker in the bunker without needing to go to Costco or any Medical facility visits for a few weeks. Big Medical can’t stop the spread, only slow it down to protect their facilities from being overwhelmed. Being open about it would help to the extent they actually have developed improved levels of understanding of the virus.

One approach is for the Pentagon to start a crash program to accumulate a strategic stockpile of antibiotics and all other drugs needed--using 100% "BUY AMERICA" approach.
VA could do the same thing.
This would be analogous to the 1980s edict from GSA that all government computer purchases must be compatible with TCP/IP protocol, which greatly accelerated the growth of the Internet.
Coloidal silver is snake oil. Vaccines work. Herbs are better left to witch doctors. Vitamin C and Bleach, of course. There are C studies and Bleach is a virucide/bacteriocide for sure.
Now for science based stuff:
Take a Vitamin D3 supplement daily. Vitamin D3 deficiency increases pulmonary disease risk by 70%. Even if you are not technically deficient supplementing daily reduced pulmonary disease risk between 12 and 19% in the study with a 99%+ confidence level. This is all pulmonary diseases including colds, etc. Study was done in Britain by their healthcare services and sample size was 12K patients. Caltrate or generic provides 800iu per pill, 1600iu per day at their recommended dosage and is dirt cheap. No toxicity or any other adverse effects at 1200iu. RDA is 400iu. (In winter almost all people in northern climates are D deficient because the sun on skin is how your body gets most D3) (Working theory is this works because of the fact that D3 is crucial in forming cell walls and in their repair)
Wash your hands. Carry hand sanitizer and use it a lot. Don’t touch your face.

Carry on.
Come on.... insufficient testing and no vaccine. It is the 19th version (that is where they get the name) of a cold/flu virus. It’s the Wuhan flu!!!!
Yes, insufficient testing and no vaccine is a deadly combo.
“Ok, virus expert. How do the vaccine developers get around the rigorous testing needed to make sure the vaccine doesn’t cause more problems than it solves?”

The world is getting better every decade at producing vaccines. AI in DNA research and gene sequencing is just one of the advances. The interconnctedness of the CDC agencies across the globe can expand the testing base for trials, further expediting and expanding analysis of test results.
Corona could be the cause for the “coming of age” of human vaccine development.
What is a nationwide quarantine? How does it work?

Wrong across the board.
Tom Donahue from the Chamber of Commerce would remove his monocle and beat our Reps and Senators until they bleed if they seriously considered such a #MAGA move.
Exactly
How do you bend a geometrical line ?
“It’s not the flu. It’s a new virus that humanity has never seen. In the elderly it kills through a vicious pneumonia and cytokine response in which the immune system overreacts and leads to organ failure. A vaccine is months away at best.”
In flu cases leading to death this also happens.

You are ignorant about both silver and herbs, FRamigo.
Go research.
Vitamin D3: right on, but I add, measure your levels and stay above 65.
You sound panicked.
Take a break.
Plant a garden, or something.
Very interesting. Thank you!
I've seen the screening when I flew international last month - walk by. If they're not sweating, coughing profusely or wheeled on a gurney, they're free to fly.
