I saw an interesting story last night that CNN misrepresented some of the facts of the effectiveness of the malaria drug. Even accusing Fox News of doing the same thing. They were ask to change the story for clarity. They refused. They’re not looking out for you people. They only have one goal. Most reports I’ve seen on the drug hyroxychloroquine are when taking early it seems to lessen the effects of the bug. A drug that’s been around awhile with little side effects. Now in reality people respond different to different drugs. I’m on blood pressure medication, my wife is too. We take different kinds. So yes there’s a possibility that hydroxychloroquine will not work the same for everyone. DUH. Especially near death on a ventilator, the report CNN sighted. It’s amazing the depths they’ll stoop to trying to discredit people they disagree with. Disgusting.

I’m wondering. Remember H1-N1? Mass hysteria? Stock Market going crazy? Who’s going to make money? Who’s pushing the most hysteria?

I work in a gov't office in a secret underground undisclosed location, as they say.  No, really.  We received a briefing from an epidemiologist in Washington State.  He said that if you put someone in

While typing the last thread the unemployment numbers came out. 4.4 million more people filed. That’s over 26 million people that lost their jobs in just a few weeks.

I haven't read the actual study yet for limitations or to see if the author of this article understands stats, but it states 94% of patients in New York with COVID-19 had underlying medical issues.....just like we've been told.

 

STATS guys, let's hear from you as you definitely understand the numbers more than most.

Overweight, diabetes, high blood pressure, over 65. Usually you get rid of the first one you take care of the next two. If you’re over 65 retire. So basically people are being asked to kiss their jobs good buy because of behavior problems of others. I’m guilty of some of that. I can stay home. One of the by products of this is the labor market will get younger and cheaper. So much for protecting older people.

The Houston Texas city liberals are demanding people to wear mask or get fines. The backlash is deafening. I carry a mask. Presently I’m only driving to my walking track every morning my normal routine. It’s busier than normal. People are spacing, I’m seeing no mask. My wife has to go to the post office and goes to the store when needed. She’s seeing mask where spacing is a challenge. Texans are pretty good at public safety. Look at our numbers. Requiring wearing a mask as a matter of law would be insulting to people who have been doing everything possible to date. I’m confused at the push back as far as barber shops, and like business. Mask wearing, gloves and hygiene would seem to make those business pretty safe. People are getting restless at over reach.

Yeah, so far; so good.  But what happens when the curtain is pulled on this mortal place?  Is this truly all there is?

Doesn't matter what you believe when faced with the actual truth of the matter.  Were you right or wrong?  Doesn't matter.  It will be what it is.

 

Who's to blame in this mess?  Look at the totals and where it is alleged to have began.

Weeks ago, the first doctors to use this cocktail of drugs were showing 100% success rate.  These were doctors in NYC, treating hundreds of patients each, many hundreds.  Then those who recovered came on the air and praised the use of those meds and some said their side effects were a headache.  Big whup.  

 

The left has politicized this entire event and done so to destroy the presidency of DJT.  They do it all the time, going back a hundred years or more.

 

When this is over we ought to crush communism in America.  Force it back into the underground where it belongs.  It's murderous and subversive, Un-American.

As I have posted since probably 1month ago I am fairly confident in my .5-.9% MR/FR  The Who has already gone from 3-4% now at 2% and even that is absolute nonsense!  They "WHO" should be fired!

 

Study Finds 14% of New Yorkers Had Signs (12:35 p.m. NY)

A New York state-led study seeking to learn how many people have been infected found that 13.9% of those tested had signs of the virus, in one of the biggest U.S. reviews to date.

In New York City, the hardest-hit area in the U.S., 21.2% tested positive for a blood marker showing that they had been infected at some point. Statewide, 2.7 million people may have has Covid-19, Governor Andrew Cuomo said.

New York has reported 15,500 deaths. If 2.7 million people have been infected, that would put the fatality rate at around 0.6%.

Interesting presser yesterday. The president brings out an expert. The summery. The bug hates heat,humidity and certain lights. There was talk about certain disinfectants. Interesting information and helpful. The president responded to the expert. Maybe you and the doctors can get together see how some of that information can work on the sick. Of course the ever honest CNN headline. The president peddles dangerous cures. Don’t drink Lysol. One reporter asked. So you’re saying don’t social distances out side? As he was looking at her like the idiot she is. He answer was I’m here bringing out the experts to give information. That’s not what I said. The got you game has gotten way out of hand. Also it appears as different types of testing ramps up. More people have been exposed with no symptoms than anyone imagined.

Lysol and Tide both issued statements immediately after the presser clarifying that under no circumstances should their products be ingested.  They did it as a response to the President clearly stating that maybe light or disinfectants could be used to help patients.  Here's the Fox News article.

 

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/media-erupt-over-trump-comments-on-disinfectant-heres-what-he-said 

 

It's being claimed that he said it jokingly.  Joking or not, these pressers are to get crucial information to the public.  He can't just spout out ridiculous ideas and then end it with "but check with a doctor first".  He knows full well that some people will do whatever he says without consulting a doctor, so he probably shouldn't say things like he did yesterday.  As the President, HE must realize that his words hold great weight with some people, and that they must be chosen carefully.  Again, his biggest problem is when he starts speaking off the cuff.  He's not a great public speaker, his thoughts are often incoherent when he strays off script, and that gets him into trouble.

 

How do you think the experts up on that stage feel when he starts going off on a tangent about them looking into whether or not they could find a way to inject disinfectants into people?  That's not a question you pose in front of the nation, you ask that behind the scenes so stuff like this doesn't happen.  Those experts must be thinking that he can't possibly be serious, because no reasonable person would think that.  It's why there are warning labels on products like that.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.
