  1. thats a pretty shitty thing to do
  2. Its difficult to see when airline travel to numerous shit holes around the world to confront an invisible enemy will be considered "safe enough" At least you can avoid pot holes and human sharks
  3. not if it had a bottle of corona on the side
  4. pure ignorance Done...we fucking well are lets mop up as best we can
  5. from the garage...in the oil container from the mower? f**k it miracle cure ,inject petroleum hydrocarbons ...you know it makes sense DON'T DO THIS BTW...WAIT FOR THE TRIAL🤣
  6. ^^^^mind you they are expert tree surgeons 🤣🤣 for corona infected stems !
  7. patients in Galwayand Liverpool are perpetually sick and have the medical certificates to prove it
  8. there is science and there is assertion ...a double blinded controlled trial(like remdesivir was subject to ) is the gold standard...I stocked up on HCQ but wont use it until decent data is forthcoming (it is not without side fx)...double blind trials have commenced I inderstand and I eagerly await their outcome
  9. lets hope they do loads of blood gases so people can get it earlier as Pa02 drops before they progress to critical
  10. yet to see the results of a decent one ,retrospective analyses where for exmple HCQ is given as a last roll of the dice to the most unwell only skews the data and is not at all helpful
  11. Not in the sightest,just trying to counter misinformation which downplays the catastrophe ,which is in nobodies interest.We are all interdependant and rely on each other to do the right thing in this pandemic.Falsely downplaying the severity and extent costs lives
  12. So your assertion is a bit of a non story,a mere distraction
  13. even if is occuring say in Oz,UK Germany ,USA etc which i seriously doubt, it is completely dwarved by the unreported covid deaths dont shoot the messenger https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/11528342/coronavirus-ravaged-brazil-worlds-highest-infection-rate-rips-slums-mass-graves/
  14. if anything the deaths from covid are underestimated many fold in the most populous parts of the world,brazil,mexico,africa.india and indeed china
  15. i seriously doubt that assertion
  16. all you have to do do is look at extra deaths at this time year now compared to the long term average...you can then see that you are barking "In 8 weeks, half of which was under the most severe isolation measures USA has ever seen, coronavirus has already killed as many people as the worst flu season ever. Imagine what it might do, if there were no efforts to slow it down?"
  17. which is a problem if we dont have a vaccine ...the virulent strain degrades very slowly to less virulent species ...and its fucking virulent on the plus side it means if an effective vaccine is developed it will work better
  18. one would think it has to be injestion ..with spill over into the respiratory tree New tests suggest Saliva is more specific as a pcr...salivary adeno cells as resevoir?,they are similar to pancreatic cells histologically...musing here...purely speculative ACE 2 receptors are abundant in the pancreas... cluster in QL around a toilet in a health care facility
  19. you are talking about the developed world ...at least 50 % of the world population live in circumstances you describe...with f**k all health facilities i stand by my prediction ...ultimately 50m + deaths unless the virus mutates to something less virulent or an effective vaccine becomes available,sadly
  20. as i said this is half way through the first and hopefully last wave...im not gonna hold my breath yes ...i am for real ...the 50m from Spanish flu was ESTIMATED,,,do you think anyone is counting in Africa,south america,central america,islamic lands in the middle east,indonesia ,malaysia,phillipines etc ...you can multiply current deaths by 10x at least Evil posted a precient graph re excess deaths in DEVELOPED countries ..open your blinkered eyes man
  21. 1 no it hasnt EXACTLY..That can only be done after the fact..i agree ..but you would have to have bats in the belfry to compute otherwise 2 At least as devastating as Spanish flu ..we are only 3months in ..hopefully the virus will mutate into a less aggressive form like SARS 2003...God help us if it mutates into a more aggressive form 3 no guarantee at all ...hope..a wing and a prayer ...but we have a modern day Mahattan project well underway..pretty much the brightest on the planet..if they cannot develop a vaccine then herd it is Herd immunity is the fall back...with catastrophic death numbers you underestimate future waves if the infective agent doesnt change..or if it gets worse or better
  22. So you would accept the death rate that we are experiencing in this 1st wave were it to continue ...there will be a second wave once the lockdown is eased this is like Spanish flu 1917-20 but worse with a higher mortality rate....that time span represents the waves of infection ...many,many millions of deaths Of course we cannot wait 3 years to go back to new normal but science has given us the knowledge to develop a vaccine..if one is proven to be effective,within a short time span..if it works we can over the next year get back to some semblance of normality the lockdown provides 2 purposes :- 1 stop the overwhelming of health services 2 Buy us time to develop a vaccine or less likely an effective treatment..if no effective vaccine is on the horizon by 1st jan 2021 we are going for your herd immunity fix Central banks can provide money/print,,this wont be quantitative easing but quantitative printing to mitigate the economic catastrophe so long as they all act in unison and not assymetrically. to mitigate xchange rate fluctuations ..inflation 10% or so in the recovery phase if this happens .buy assetts in the short term is my uneducated guess
