De Blasio warns half of all New Yorkers will get COVID-19
NY Post ^ | March 25, 2020 | 7:24pm | Julia Marsh

Over 4 million New Yorkers — or 50 percent of the city’s population — will get the coronavirus, Mayor de Blasio warned Wednesday.

“It’s a fair bet to say that half of all New Yorkers and maybe more than half will end up contracting this disease,” de Blasio said at a City Hall press briefing about the outbreak as the Big Apple’s positive cases approached 18,000 with nearly 200 deaths.

And virtually all who get this virus can never receive the effective Malaria drug that banned by Cuomo for all but being in a trial.

Maybe because higher transmissions rates if they are passing their joints around . I know it would be stupid under the circumstances but these are mostly liberals.

Does it seem odd that big cities that are strong democrat strong holds, transmitted this virus the fastest. It almost seems to be a selfulling cleansing brought on by their socializing habits!

Not to worry, though, any democrat who dies of this virus will continue to vote Democrat for an eternity.

"'Malaria Drug Is Effective Against SARS' IOL ^ | 9-3-2004 Posted on 9/3/2004, 7:20:01 PM by blam 'Malaria drug is effective against SARS' September 03 2004 at 06:27PM Brussels - The anti-malaria drug chloroquine could be used to treat Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, which killed hundreds of people last year, virologists at the Belgian Catholic University of Leuven (KUL) said on Friday. A research team led by Professor Marc Van Ranst of KUL's Rega Institute for Medical Research found that chloroquine "is active against the SARS coronavirus in laboratory experiments". "Chloroquine could be of great importance as preventive medication for people living in or travelling to SARS-affected areas, and as an antiviral treatment for SARS patients," the research team said in a statement. Nearly 800 people died from SARS after it emerged in southern China in late 2002. It infected 8 000 people in nearly 30 countries, devastating airline and tourism industries. China, the hardest hit country, declared it had conquered the outbreak in July 2003, but has reported several new cases this year."

just for laughs about this "new" remedy...

Well it sucks to be one of the unlucky ones who dies because they can’t get the one effective treatment. But lets no have any compassion for them.

According to the CDC, on the cruise ships, less than 20% of the people on board were infected, despite the long exposure and the close confines.

Successful therapy against Covid-19 virus from New York State:

Dr. Vladimir (Zev) Zelenko Board Certified Family Practitioner 501 Rt 208, Monroe, NY 10950 845-238-0000

March 23, 2020

To all medical professionals around the world:

My name is Dr. Zev Zelenko and I practice medicine in Monroe, NY. For the last 16 years, I have cared for approximately 75% of the adult population of Kiryas Joel, which is a very close knit community of approximately 35,000 people in which the infection spread rapidly and unchecked prior to the imposition of social distancing.

As of today my team has tested approximately 200 people from this community for Covid-19, and 65% of the results have been positive. If extrapolated to the entire community, that means more than 20,000 people are infected at the present time. Of this group, I estimate that there are 1500 patients who are in the high-risk category (i.e. >60, immunocompromised, comorbidities, etc).

Given the urgency of the situation, I developed the following treatment protocol in the pre-hospital setting and have seen only positive results:

1. Any patient with shortness of breath regardless of age is treated.

2. Any patient in the high-risk category even with just mild symptoms is treated.

3. Young, healthy and low risk patients even with symptoms are not treated (unless their circumstances change and they fall into category 1 or 2).

My out-patient treatment regimen is as follows:

1. Hydroxychloroquine 200mg twice a day for 5 days

2. Azithromycin 500mg once a day for 5 days

3. Zinc sulfate 220mg once a day for 5 days

The rationale for my treatment plan is as follows. I combined the data available from China and South Korea with the recent study published from France (sites available on request). We know that hydroxychloroquine helps Zinc enter the cell. We know that Zinc slows viral replication within the cell. Regarding the use of azithromycin, I postulate it prevents secondary bacterial infections. These three drugs are well known and usually well tolerated, hence the risk to the patient is low.

Since last Thursday, my team has treated approximately 350 patients in Kiryas Joel and another 150 patients in other areas of New York with the above regimen.

Of this group and the information provided to me by affiliated medical teams, we have had ZERO deaths, ZERO hospitalizations, and ZERO intubations. In addition, I have not heard of any negative side effects other than approximately 10% of patients with temporary nausea and diarrhea.

In sum, my urgent recommendation is to initiate treatment in the outpatient setting as soon as possible in accordance with the above. Based on my direct experience, it prevents acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), prevents the need for hospitalization and saves lives.

With much respect,

Dr. Zev Zelenko

60% of NYers who test positive and are hospitalized are 34 to 64.

Marijuana is worse on the lungs than smoke, maybe about 5 times worse.

No where close to 10-15% will need a bed. Maybe 1/100 of that.
