Hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin as a treatment of COVID-19.pdf

drive.google.com

here is the Study (I would archive but Google Docs is being a faggot and won't let me DL it)

Seems promising in reducing viral load. My understanding is damage to the lungs is caused by the immune response, so reducing viral load quicker isn't a cure but also probably isn't a bad thing. It suggests a beneficial drug combination to give, reduces the time each patient is in a bed. I hope we have millions of doses of ready to flow where they need to go.

Overheard family arguing about this shit today. Amazing how fucking little people fucking know, especially when you have someone with a bio (particularly phys/histology, immunology, and micro) degree right down the hall. One of them didn’t catch that A. Coronavirus isn’t just this. B. Some doc giving an interview about the ways a virus goes from animal to human to communicable isn’t relevant to them protecting against it at this point. C. Just how many goddamn diseases are caused by viruses or how immunizations and immunity work. D. What the fuck a theory is contexts beyond laymen. The last one isn’t as relevant, but it’s aways driven me up a fucking wall. One of them also didn’t get that kung flu was a pun.

I'm not talking about how we feel about China. I'm talking about actual official reasoning that would land someone aiding them in violation of the espionage act. Obviously China is a shitshow and is entirely responsible for this shit. But you are absolutely not going to get someone prosecuted for treason for arguing the opposite.

You don't think that China is being hostile when they are spreading the false information on the world stage that the United States is responsible for this? Really?

Also ... "Nuking Freedom of Speech." Dude. So it's just okay for the press to cover for Commie China by crying "muh racism" just because the Orange Man is Bad? You think it's okay for the press to call everyone who was concerned about COVID-19 months ago "waaaacist" only to put the entire nation on shit-spewing panic mode this past week? You think it's okay that the media distracted the American people from paying attention to this for months just to have them focus on a bullshit impeachment instead?

I'm not saying to silence the press, mind you, but I am saying that their shit needs to be called out big time and that there should be some backlash and consequences for the shit that they continue to pull. Freedom of Speech does not entail any right or entitlement to their credibility.

And it's about damn time that our businesses and corporations tell China to fuck off. It's time to stop China's economic influence around the world. I'm not saying we need to go to war, but I am saying that it's about damn time to kick them in the coin purses. Hard.

Honestly you are right and I am letting my being mad over this get ahead of me. The US media are being scum bags but it's not enough to risk giving daddy government power to spank then.

That said you are wrong about them not taking marching orders from Beijing. Most US news corporations are now owned by major multinationals like Disney, Viacom and Amazon. These companies do huge business in China and unlike in America the Chinese government absolutely leverages its authority to MAKE them do what they want. Most of these think pieces were written by the Ministry of Public Security, handed to these corporations and ORDERED to put one of their American journalists in the "by line" and publish it "or else".

Others have posted the reasons why China is indeed a hostile foreign power so I won't repeat them but you realize the Constitution can be suspended? Lincoln did it during the Civil War and Grant did so again during Reconstruction. You underestimate the ability of a slick lawyer to craft a convincing a memorandum supporting it.

The only reason they stockpile malaria drugs is due to US government subsidies dating back to the 19th century. The Army wants plenty of the shit on hand in case some tropical shit hole needs a dose of freedom. In many respects it is already paid for.

If they actually work on this it would be a fucking miracle

 

[ConfederateIrishman]

Twitter is dropping hot takes and red pills, Ilhan Omar is now on team MAGA and the Republicans want to send free money to every American.

Where are those flying pigs I have heard so much about?

Not so fast unfortunately: it looks like the Neocons have finally gotten over their shock from the Crisis to heroicly deny the average pleb any TrumpBucks, as we all know only large banks can be printed trillions of dollars to keep them
running a few more weeks.

Just because those things occurred doesn't mean they are right. Just because Lincoln suspended the first amendment to arrest sympathizers in some cases simple critics, doesn't mean we should.

the temporary stays on Eviction is really neat in theory but I know my apartment complex has a late fee of about $25 a day
so whoopity shit you don't get evicted for a month then you owe them a whole fuckload more and get evicted the minute they take it down

Think it through. If someone is getting evicted I don't think they are going pay any sort of late fee. More likely they will steal the plumbing and appliances on the way out.

7 Members of New Jersey Family Sickened by Coronavirus, 4 Killed

A New Jersey family has been devastated by the coronavirus. Four have died and three others are hospitalized, with two in critical condition.

heavy.com

In other bad news ....

That poor family.....

So the oldest victim is presumably in her 70s. The 55 year old dying so quickly indicates either a compromised immune system or an underlying condition. With several siblings also dead already, I can only guess from the picture that diabetes may run in the family, ethnic italian so perhaps a history of smoking as well? OR just a REALLY bad bit of luck in regards to the family's immune system.
