Corona Virus Updates Part 3

a reply to: armakirais

Not at all. Drs in the US aren’t testing for this. We’ve even heard of firsthand accounts of members on here having family go to clinics, concerned with flu-like and/or respiratory issues that developed quickly. This virus didn’t come up for whatever reason.

Strange to be sure.

I would also add that geographically Japan and China are much closer and I would expect a those travelling from either Japan and China would be generally higher. Especially during the Chinese New Year festive time.

Immunology 101: The Basics and Introduction to our Patient


Immunoglobulins consist of the antibodies and antigens. These parts of the immune system help target specific viruses and bacteria in our bodies and are able to be transfused fairly readily. There are billions+ different variations. Transfusions of other immune components like T Cells can cause complications.

There have been some diseases in which specific engineered antibodies have been man made to help in the treatment. To take down this demon this is where I would throw the money.

One troubling interaction with the inserted RNA from the bat coronvirus to form 2019-nCoV is how this part of HIV is used to latch onto T Cells. As for how much 2019-nCoV interferes with the function of the T Cells is unknown. With reports of immune suppression associated with COVID-19 there is a potential for significant interaction. With some people recovering quickly from initial infection, there may be a long term or later stage infection. There maybe other reasons for variability of immune suppression.

2019-nCoV is the virus.
COVID-19 is the disease.

don't have to be infected to help if you've that blood group, its always needed and asked for at blood dotations.

Actually. It might be the “best” way to get rid of us eaters. WW3 would be super messy, and Big Biz would grind to a halt, except for MIC. Nukes too would garner a lot of deaths, but make the world’s topside unlivable. TPTB still don’t know how to phone in a tactical meteor, or I’m sure that option would be on the table. Zombies aren’t quite a thing. I dunno what else they would use as a trick to depopulate ya. So a virus, like a neutron bomb, decimates people, but leaves buildings and other needed infrastructure in place for the NWO. Just spitballing, no I don’t necessarily believe this is what’s happening either

Another 800K+ going into lockdown.

Thank you for the naming of the disease vs the virus!

This’ll limit confusion in further reading.

Until they decide to toss the word salad and definitions again. Probably the time we start to wise up....

Here is my question . Might be that my thinking is wrong.

A lot of people are questioning the numbers outside of China .

How are they so low ??

Well my thought on this.

Right now we are going through the flu and cold season . When you go to the Dr due to the cold you get some meds and you go home . Nobody tested or is testing for the virus . So could it be that some of the flu symptoms are actually the Corona virus?

I just read on wuflu .live that the USA is going to start testing when you have flu symptoms .

So basically I am saying saying the numbers are low because nobody is testing . They are just starting now to think about testing for people who have not been to China .

Am I completely wrong on this

Bingo,

Two of my children just recently went to the doc. They only ask if you have been in contact with anyone from Wuhan China or have visited.

They have not been testing for this outbreak.

That is a solid fact from really recent experience.

There have been people running around from China days before ant type of transportation suspensions, and quarantine zones.

Hell, we just got a letter in the mail informing us that three nearby schools have been severely impacted by the damned whooping caugh. Sickness is all around at the moment. There are only 15 confirmed cases because they are only testing those who are sick and from China, or around anyone from China.

We all might be infected already, who knows.

Anyone in Hawaii? 👀

Confirmed case of the virus - had flu-like symptoms while in Hawaii. Now hospitalized with pneumonia in Aichi Province, Japan per NHK.

I have just had an OMG moment!

For awhile now I have wondered why there are so many stand alone walk in clinics, and more being built.
Initially building one makes sense because it takes the pressure off of the hospitals emergency department.
The problem is that they are very under utilized and in fact when I have had to take someone there no other patients are around.
When I have had to take someone to emergency that too has been not that busy.
So exactly why has all of this excess capacity been built?
There are clinics every few miles apart, almost designed to serve separate communities.
Now there is a scary thought!

THIS is where all of our mandatory health care money is going. Most people noticed how the pries of everything dealing with healthcare took a huge jump, and it's not hard to see where all of those profits have gone.

Deleted post as I see explosion explanation has been posted.

Notice how the cases in the US are near the borders .

Sitting in JFK international airport terminal; its a light day, not many people here. No one wearing masks, including the airport and shops staff.

Is a pint of beer still over $14 at the airport bar there ?I nearly fell off my stool when I was there in July.

You’re actually a universal blood recipient, not donor. You can accept blood from any blood type but only donate to AB+. However, you are indeed a universal donor for plasma and can donate plasma to any blood type! I’m O- and so basically the complete opposite. Can donate to any blood type, receive only O-, and receive plasma from any type. I find the whole blood group typing thing so interesting.

They'll need to use a much deadlier virus than Covid-19 if they want to control the population. With these numbers, 98% of people are going to be fine.
