Corona Virus Updates Part 2

At this point all we can only watch and try to stay calm. Stress is a major factor in our lives anyway, but at times like this it can make a bad situation worse. Our problem is that the only thing we can really say with any kind of certainty is that we don't really know a lot, we can't necessarily trust new information as it comes in, and we don't know what we don't know. But that's true of every day and we (usually) manage to hold it together. There's a good reason why so many of us forgotten password folk have flocked back to this site. Go to where there the smart people go.

I'm still encouraging people to look at natural medicine to feed up their immune system. I've had a few people in my circle start using kefir, which as well as being a great way to get a good probiotic, it contributes to a strong immune response and it's an ACE inhibitor. Many of my friends are smokers of one variety or another, and I only recently quit tobacco, and the smoking link is very concerning.

I've just received a portable nebulizer, I'm going to use it to nebulize magnesium salts if needed, as per www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov... and a few other sources. I discovered the role magnesium plays in our bodies years ago and like efficient ways of using it that don't require a 2 hour long bath. I usually make a fine paste with the salts using a hand blender which is very effective at exfoliating the skin and getting a good therapeutic dose of magnesium straight into the blood via the skin. I used the nebulizer today, and wow, straight into the lungs and straight into the blood, that's why we smoke lol. I'm confident that would be as helpful as the medical papers suggest. Could it help with a cytokine storm?

China now 1.5 hours late reporting corona virus.
WHO and CDC is over there now in China maybe they are stopping the reporting.

She tested negative, was released, and then readmitted a week later.

That fits with the question of dormancy I've asked several times in these threads. Since it's not unusual for some viruses to be present in a body, laying dormant and virtually undetectable by standard tests, I am very concerned this virus does the same. (Which again would screw with the timeline and make these 14 day quarantines pretty pointless)

Well we might not know who ‘they’ are, or already have a vaccine. I wouldn’t want to release a virus on the world without a personal antidote for myself and chosen few.
Well wouldn’t want to do virus bit in first place I’m happy to say though making such a plan is not completely beyond my level of comprehension of human nature.

Lmao I am leaving tonight just in time to avoid your thread illustrating your attempt at catharsis lol jeez. I would say don’t be quick to judge but you be you... only drivel I see is yours in this thread. What a schmuck.

Breaking News over 14000 new cases 242 deaths

a reply to: burdman30ott6

Yes and no.

Pretty much every study out there shows an incubation average of between 3 to 5. One of those with a median 3 day incubation was one with a 24 day incubation outlier.

What sometimes happens is that someone gets infected/exposed, and the people doing the testing know about that point of exposure. They go a period of days being negative, and then at some point they get exposed/infected again, but the testing people don't know about that point of exposure. At that time, they start a new period of incubation or would if anyone knew about the new exposure. Since no one does, when the patient comes down ill days outside what is thought to be the standard range, they total all the days from last known exposure.

Apparently it happens fairly commonly in viral outbreaks. It has even happened with Ebola.

Some 14,840 new cases and 242 new deaths.

Was she confirmed to have the virus? I'm reading they're awaiting results...

I watch Lookner on his Youtube channel.. so live basically. This is truly insane if they are now redefining how they classify people ...again

a reply to: EndtheMadnessNow

Holy fuuuuu

We wanted real numbers... don't like the real numbers.

Wonder if they're suddenly going to up all the forthcoming cases to try and make up for all the fake numbers? Its not like theyve managed to test 14k in last 24hrs?!

a reply to: lostsock

Yea, he got really excited. They changed some details criteria on how they confirm cases.
I'm still reading into it.

Hey ya'all. we are gonna need a new graph soon, my life isnt complete unless I have some graphs and weird statistic's to look at

Sounds like they are trying to play "catch-up" on the reporting, now that there are outside eyes looking more closely at it - even if its just Canadians.

The US is allowed only as part of the WHO; invited back Feb 4. ..
plus the US just pledged 100mil (like rain on the ocean) to the efforts.
