The situation is very serious. All countries try to tackle the expansion of Coronavirus. I think that the suspention of all flights coming to US from Europe is not going to solve the problem in the US. Coronavirus is already there and other measures should be taken to control it. |

Careful with orthomolecular. It's touted as a 'peer reviewed science journal' but it's really just a pseudo science/conspiracy site used to push all those dietary supplements you see on fake news sites. The Author (Andrew Saul) is absolutely a fraud.

I think that the suspention of all flights coming to US from Europe is not going to solve the problem in the US. Coronavirus is already there and other measures should be taken to control it. There other measures being taken, and restricting travel is one of those measures that has helped. No, it won't solve the problem, but it will help to prevent it from getting worse. The last I heard there are around 2000 confirmed cases in the US, and 30 confirmed deaths. That's a lot fewer than the number of cases in Europe and the UK, or in Asia. Considering the size/population of the US, and how common air-travel is, that's a good sign that something is working to prevent wide-spread contraction of the disease. |

People are panicking about this to an unbelievable extent. It's a bad disease, to be sure, and some precautions should be taken, but it's not worth putting the entire economy on hold. For example, maybe it'd be a good idea to 100% lock-down nursing homes, but cancelling all university classes and sporting events, or locking down entire countries, or stopping trade between the biggest economies in the world? I think we'll look back at this in a couple of years and see this as a huge hypochondriacal overreaction which kicked off quite a damaging recession. (Though the economy was already unstable in many ways: it's not just the virus.) Genetic engineering tech is moving along very quickly, and in a decade or two we could very well start seeing "black hat gene hackers" producing genetically-engineered viruses. After seeing the utter chaos from this only-somewhat-worse-than-average virus, I have to wonder how the world will react to those. Can you imagine seeing a new "coronavirus" pandemic every year, or one with even worse spread or symptoms? (I recently had all of the symptoms of the virus. I wonder if I had it, or if it was just the ordinary flu. It was very unpleasant, though I got over it in a few days.) Edit: Bonus haiku.  Fear! Virus! Unplug:

The Author (Andrew Saul) is absolutely a fraud. The bottom line, the body needs Vitamin C daily, can not store large amounts, and to much of it will test the fast trousers drooping skills. The US National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health The effects of vitamin C against infections should be investigated further https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5409678/As for Vitamin D (Sun), An estimated one billion people worldwide are either vitamin D insufficient or deficient Blood pressure pills (ACE inhibitors) may be making people die from Coronavirus Several observational studies, which track participants over time without assigning a specific treatment, have associated low vitamin D levels with greater susceptibility to acute respiratory infections. https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2017/02/study-confirms-vitamin-d-protects-against-cold-and-flu/Since at this time of the year, the lack of vitamin D in the population of the northern hemisphere is widely observed, quasi exhibits a pandemic, it is likely that the role of RAS in COVID-19 disease is not negligible. Indeed the world distribution of COVID-19 fatalities appears to well overlap with that of the vitamin D lacking population. Not to mention that people lacking vitamin D have a weaker innate immune defense against SARS-CoV-2. https://www.bmj.com/content/368/bmj.m810/rr-24 |

Still see sky above my head,
Dirt below my feetThe concepts of overreacting and panic and it still being a serious issue are not exclusive. If you understand how epidemiology works as much as anyone who has ever played a game of Plague Inc., you know that the diseases that pose real issues are not the ones with extremely high and fast fatality rates, because those kill off their hosts quickly and the spread stops. This disease is a problem because it not only is fatal enough to be dangerous, but it has several characteristics which lend itself to nearly universal spread. -Long incubation period (also makes small scale quarantines largely ineffective) -Passive symptom free carriers -Airborne for long periods -Survives on surfaces -Can reinfect hosts after recovery -High rates of infection Panic is usually never a solution to anything, but the steps being taken are absolutely necessary. It is easy to write this off now because the impact isn't evident yet. These steps are specifically being taken to slow the spread so that the medical infrastructure is not completely overwhelmed with what is coming. Reducing the rate of infection is absolutely crucial to this. This means expect quarantines. Quarantines means people being stuck in their homes for long periods of time. People being stuck in their homes for long periods of time means panic buying. The panic is absolutely being used for ulterior motives, but as I said previously the concepts of this being serious and people also simultaneously panicking irrationally are not exclusive. Normalcy bias is potentially an even more dangerous threat, because people ignoring the threat by dismissing the panic as totally irrational will ironically create a self fulfilling prophesy just as the people panic buying are with shortages. I realized today what the obsession over toilet paper is. This is the bargaining phase. This is a result of people who live in well off nations admitting to themselves that there is a problem, but not how serious it is. They are literally saying to themselves "Yeah this is a problem, but it is not THAT big of a deal, at worse the toilet paper runs out." Thus, like the proverbial binky, people rush out to sooth their cognitive dissonance by buying toilet paper to reassure themselves that they have control of the situation when they do not.  |

...
Unfortunately most people have a simplistic understanding of what constitutes a 'good weapon'. If weapon A kills on contact and weapon B does not, A is 'better'. This is simply not true in the modern world. A 'good' weapon is one which achieves a desired effect most efficiently, and killing a whole city in one fell swoop is not the only 'desired effect'. In fact it is usually counterproductive insofar as the blowback will be a problem. Thermo-nuclear weapons made it clear to TPTB that the problem with a really 'good' weapon in the classic sense is that it is really difficult to actually use. Plenty of money can be made with these weapons by maintaining them, but if they were also usable it would be 'nice.' Even if/when the cat is out of the bag on the precise nature of these 'strains' of 'coronavirus' as lab-made things, it will be the path of least resistance for most of the peeps to just suck it up and tolerate them, and even justify them for people on the 'winning' side. This is precisely because at the end of the day they are simply not a big enough threat to a large enough segment of society to do anything about. There is simply no practical way at this stage of our technocratic development to do much about them from the ground level. 'Voting harder' is clearly not working. |

Blood pressure pills (ACE inhibitors) may be making people die from Coronavirus
no no no dont even try starting that myth people who die from corona have health issues already. so dont go starting to say its medication thats causing corona deaths. when the truth is its a health issue the person has that causes it.. and separetly they just happen to be taking medication for that health issue, when the get corona. but because they have an underlying health issue. means they are at risk myths like you are trying to pursue will make people think if they stop taking their regular medication they wil be safe from corona. truth is by not taking the medication they would be multiplying their risk further same goes for things like vit C.. by pushing Vit C as a 'prevents corona'..(facepalm) people think if they just eat a vitamin tablet the day they want to visit their elderly relatives they wil be shielded from having, passing or getting affected by corona.. obviously not the case ... i have heard many stupid myths recently. even some far fetched ones like because the death toll is high in the elderly. some stupid people have been saying corona is being spread through ready-made meals that are being distributed mainly to elderly peoples homes as that would explain the eerily higher death rate of that age group (facepalm) truth is pretty much everyone will get corona. and every year there will be a corona flu. (sometimes low risk sometimes higher risk (usually higher risk ones happen every 5-0 years)) however. the thing to care most about is to not try spreading it to people with weak immune symptoms. basically things where theymos was saying he can understand isolating retirement villages but cant understand why to isolate/close universities.. its because the uni students wont be much at risk themselves. but its to help avoid the students from getting it quickly and randomly and unknowingly, to then spread it to their weaker immune relatives. also by preventing it from spreading quickly through everyone so quickly. it slows down and delays the chances of it mutating its much better everyone gets it over a year where its mainly one strain. than it is where people get it all in a month and it then, due to having billions of people incubating it in that month. having a higher chance of it mutating. and then reinfecting people with the new strain quickly again. by only having a couple hundred thousand people a month getting it. the chances of it mutating is lower. meaning that the same strain passes around for the year. instead of new strains every month. like i said its mainly about isolating not to prevent death from the young(as the young aint really that much at risk). but more so prevent it rapidly spreading out of control which can then hit the weakened immune people faster and harder |

Blood pressure pills (ACE inhibitors) may be making people die from Coronavirus
no no no dont even try starting that myth people who die from corona have health issues already. so dont go starting to say its medication thats causing corona deaths. when the truth is its a health issue... Unfortunately the theory that ACE inhibitors and ARB may increase risk is disturbingly plausible. Covid-19 is thought to attack cells like SARS by binding to the ACE 2 receptors on cells in the lungs. ACE inhibitors are known in at least some animal models to cause upregulation of ACE receptors. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/26859747_Upregulation_of_angiotensin-converting_enzyme_ACE_2_in_hepatic_fibrosis_by_ACE_inhibitorsIt is therefore theoretically possible that this class of blood pressure medication as opposed to the other types could be an independent risk factor for disease severity. However, while possible such a risk is not proven and uncontrolled hypertension also has known and proven risks. Also many alternative blood pressure medications that are not ACE inhibitors exist. Are patients with hypertension and diabetes mellitus at increased risk for COVID-19 infection?https://www.thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/lanres/PIIS2213-2600(20)30116-8.pdf |

I'm here, it's too late... I was created in Wuhan Institute of Virology as a secret bio-weapon but I managed to escape (Chinese filters, you know), now I'm coming for you. See you soon  |
Dark humor is like food. Not everyone gets it.
Getting paid for shitposting is even more pathetic!

First case of the COVID-19 virus have been confirmed in Nigeria (Lagos).
Just as an update to my post here about the first case of the Covid-19 in Nigeria, Today, the Minister of Health in Nigeria announced that all contacts of the index case of COVID-19 in Nigeria have completed their follow up period, and have been certified free to rejoin society 1 and it was also announced that the second confirmed case who was a contact of the index case, has now tested negative twice for the virus. He has cleared the virus & is allowed to go home 2  Images source: 31. https://twitter.com/NCDCgov/status/12384477886833336332. https://twitter.com/NCDCgov/status/12384478095667363843. https://ncdc.gov.ng |

The reported sensitivities of each test in comparison to cell culture have ranged between 40% and 80%, and they are somewhat dependent on the nature of the samples tested and the patients from whom they were derived. In general, sensitivities in adults and older adult patients tend to be lower than those reported in young children, who shed much larger quantities of virus in nasal secretions and therefore have much higher concentrations of antigen in their samples. Similarly, sensitivity is likely to be higher early in the course of illness, when viral shedding is maximal. Although all types of respiratory samples can be used in such tests, the sensitivity appears to be better with nasopharyngeal swabs and aspirates than with throat swabs or gargles. basically a dry cough has less virus then a wet flemmy cough the older you are the less secretions you have mouth swabs are less effective than nose swabs in short if your old with a dry cough and given a mouth swab. the results wont be as effective as someone with a runny nose who has a nose swab also where abouts in time you are during the incubation period changes the results also its usually done as a swap that reacts to a chemical mix to change colour. so there is a bit of human judgement impairment over what shade of a colour is a positive or negative |
