Use large hotels & motels and empty college campuses as temporary quarantine and equipment sites.

Hopefully it won't get bad enough to need them.

No kidding. They've already crapped all over our human right to work and travel freely. If they start trampling property rights might as well stick a fork in the Republic and install a dictator.

I don't follow fear mongering nor ignorant...

You just got taken to school and you denied it.
What else would you call it ?

Denying ignorance
Why ?
Ahem....

Yes for the ill.

What do you want to happen if the hotel and motel owners say no?

You worried more about property instead of life, not me.

Have you called up the government and offer up your property to house people and equipment.

If not why not?

Find another.

And if they all say no?

Have you called and offered your property yet?

Why do you keep asking petty off the topic questions?
a reply to: scraedtosleep
If they say no and problems are arise then I guess find another way?
This is prototype if the virus becomes more contagious and deadly and you still worried about property Unless you're a troll of which bridges to your consciousness can be built...

Unless you're a troll of which bridges to your consciousness can be built...

Yes. Because when its all over with...property is what feeds you. At some point we have to rebuild from this.

Honestly, my own security takes precedence over all of you. While I am happy to provide charity...i see no reason to make that unfettered.

Just passionate about property rights. Calm down.

I don't like anyone giving the government power to just commander my stuff. For any reason.
I think you wouldn't like it if it was your stuff.

They could ask them for help now, before things get out of control.

a reply to: scraedtosleep
That way if/when needed the paperwork is complete...

I don't seek tyranny for or over any CREATOR Creations. For then those under said tyrants rule or control are subject to said tyrants issues/personal problems...
I prefer the light the way & keep it moving process.

DRACO (double-stranded RNA activated caspase oligomerizer) is a group of experimental antiviral drugs formerly under development at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In cell culture, DRACO was reported to have broad-spectrum efficacy against many infectious viruses, including dengue flavivirus, Amapari and Tacaribe arenavirus, Guama bunyavirus, H1N1 influenza and rhinovirus, and was additionally found effective against influenza in vivo in weanling mice.[1] It was reported to induce rapid apoptosis selectively in virus-infected mammalian cells, while leaving uninfected cells unharmed.[1]

As of January 2014, work had moved to Draper Laboratory for further testing and development; "the team looks forward to larger scale animal trials and clinical human trials within a decade or less".[2] Dr. Todd Rider presented at the SENS Foundation's SENS6 conference.[3] He left the Draper Laboratory in May 2015 and started a crowdfunding campaign at Indiegogo to raise funds to test the drugs against the herpesvirus and retrovirus families.[4] In total it was predicted that $500,000 per year for 4 years would be needed to optimise and demonstrate DRACOs against clinically relevant viruses[5], however, two crowdfunding campaigns for $90,000 both failed to reach their target in 2016.

In 2015, an independent research group reported to have successfully observed antiviral activity against the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) using DRACOs in vitro.[6]

As of December 2015, research related to DRACOs had ground to a halt due to a lack of funding.[7]

Were there other problems with DRACO Vaccination other then funding?🤔

Perhaps with more minds working together it can be perfected...

Hong Kong scientists claim they have made a potential breakthrough discovery in the fight against infectious diseases—a chemical that could slow the spread of deadly viral illnesses.


A team from the University of Hong Kong described the newly discovered chemical as "highly potent in interrupting the life cycle of diverse viruses" in a study published this month in the journal Nature Communications.

The scientists told AFP Monday that it could one day be used as a broad-spectrum antiviral for a host of infectious diseases—and even for viruses that have yet to emerge—if it passes clinical trials.

The spread in recent decades of sometimes deadly bird flu strains, the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) have underscored the need for new drugs that can work more quickly than vaccines.

Broad-spectrum antivirals are seen as the holy grail because they can be used against multiple pathogens.

In contrast, vaccines usually only protect against one strain, and by the time they are produced the virus may have mutated.

The HKU team tested their chemical "AM580" on mice in a two-year study and found it stopped the replication of a host of flu strains—including H1N1, H5N1 and H7N9—as well as the viruses that cause SARS and MERS.

It also stopped the replication of the mosquito-borne Zika virus and Enterovirus 71 which causes hand, foot and mouth disease.

"This is what we call a broad-spectrum antiviral drug, which means it can kill a number of viruses," microbiologist Yuen Kwok-yung, who led the team, told AFP.

"This is quite important in the early control of an epidemic."

Starving the virus

The study is part of a growing body of research by virologists to find drugs that avoid targeting a virus directly—something which could lead to resistance. Instead they look for compounds that interrupt the way viruses use crucial fatty acids, known as lipids, within a host's cells to replicate.

"This study is science in progress -– an early step in an exciting new direction," said Benjamin Neuman, an expert on viruses at Texas A&M University-Texarkana who has published his own studies on starving viruses of lipids.

"Viruses are totally dependent on supplies stolen from their hosts, and a number of recent studies have shown that treatments that interrupt the steady flow of lipids in an infected cell are highly effective at blocking a wide range of viruses," he told AFP.

The next step is to test the drug on a wider variety of animals, including pigs and primates, before pushing to clinical trials, a process Yuen said could take up to eight years.

The HKU team have applied for a patent in the United States.

A derivative of AM580 is already being used in Japan to treat cancer, raising hopes that it will show low toxicity for humans.

But Neuman warns there are drawbacks.

Like many chemotherapy methods used to fight cancer, antivirals such as AM580 damage a person's cells to starve a virus. While cells can heal, much research still needs to be done on how and when to use such techniques.

"Unless the treatment is targeted very carefully, the potential for side effects would be very worrying," he said.

Densely populated Hong Kong has first-hand experience of deadly viral outbreaks.

In 2003, nearly 300 people died from SARS and the city's densely packed apartment blocks are considered hugely vulnerable to future outbreaks.

Have considered if these mysterious deaths in Dominican Republic and Fiji were possibly related to current issues. And if so if any available samples would help.
Toxicology test are said to of been done.
