    Vitamin C Clinical Trials For Coronavirus Underway In China – Latest Updates
    Does vitamin C cure Coronavirus? No? Can vitamin C treat Coronavirus? We can’t say it does, but at the same time, we can’t say it doesn’t either. This is why multiple clinical trials are underway in China to investigate whether or not vitamin C infusion has any effect against Coronavirus and those infected with it. The idea that vitamin C may help in treating the Coronavirus, at least here in the west, seems to be dubbed as ‘fake news,’ which is odd given the fact that authorities should be mentioning that at this point it’s inconclusive.

    Patient One: First U.S. Coronavirus Case Suffered Pneumonia, Recovered
    The New England Journal of Medicine has published a paper about the first patient known in the U.S. to have contracted coronavirus. He suffered nausea, stomach problems, and pneumonia, but recovered almost completely.
    https://www.breitbart.com/health/202...nia-recovered/
    nice! that being said, from what I've read, some who have recovered have been shown to carry a relatively huge viral load in swab tests, wether the virus is active or deactivated remains to be seen

    And on a like note, I googled for how the care facility in Washington state got ahold of the virus, and not one story read so far tells how it got there.

    Patton Oswalt Imagines Trump Supporters Dying from Coronavirus
    Comedian-actor Patton Oswalt posted a tweet on Tuesday in which he imagined supporters of President Donald Trump dying from coronavirus.

    U.S. Not Screening Travelers from Coronavirus Hubs Italy, South Korea
    Officials with the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Atlanta, Georgia, confirmed online that travelers from the high-risk coronavirus nations of Italy and South Korea are not screened by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials once they arrive in the U.S.
    Instead, travelers from Italy and South Korea are screened before they board flights to the U.S. This is different than those arriving in the U.S. from Iran and China, as they are screened once they have landed on American soil.

    Newark City Government Threatens to Jail Anyone Who Spreads Unapproved Info on Coronavirus
    Newark Public Safety Director Anthony Ambrose issued the threat against individuals posting on social media and urged others to rat out people who post unauthorized narratives to the thought police.
    “Any false reporting on coronavirus in our city will result in criminal prosecution,” Ambrose said. “We are putting forth every investigative effort to identify anyone making false accusations on social media to ensure that any posted information is immediately addressed.”

    Coronavirus: Sacramento County Gives Up On Automatic 14-Day Quarantines
    "With the shift from containment to mitigation, it is no longer necessary for someone who has been in contact with someone with COVID-19 to quarantine for 14 days," the county says.
    Effective immediately, people in Sacramento County should not quarantine themselves if they've been exposed to the COVID-19. Instead, they should go into isolation only if they begin to show symptoms of the respiratory virus, the county's health department says.https://www.npr.org/sections/health-...ay-quarantines
    guess they want it to spread

    Scientists in China have been researching how one man there passed on the virus to 9 different people aboard a bus and 13 people in total and as that study concluded, not only can the virus be spread much further than previously believed, it can also 'linger in the air for up to 30 minutes'.
    A man infected with coronavirus spread the virus to nine other people on his bus, raising fears the killer infection can jump between people far easier than initially thought in confined places.
    A study found two victims sitting 4.5 metres (14.7ft) away from the man were later diagnosed, which is four times what is considered a 'safe distance' to stand near an COVID-19 patient.

    U.S. Government Could Have Prevented America’s Wuhan Flu Patient Zero from Entering Washington State in Mid-January…. But it Didn’t
    Conservative commentator Ilana Mercer brought attention to an interesting article from MSN that was released on March 9, 2020.
    She tweeted, “Patient Zero, who likely infected Washington State (and beyond?), arrived from #Wuhanin on Jan. 15 and was tested on Jan 20. If only travel from #China had been stopped earlier, the poor old people from the #LifeCare home might be alive.”
    https://bigleaguepolitics.com/u-s-go...-but-it-didnt/
    guess that splains how it got to the nursing home



    some thoughts on the topic;

    If this virus is as easily airborne as smallpox, that would explain everything as far as how it spread so fast.
    One thing that confused Chinese researchers was a case where a infected person lived a few floors below a person they infected, but had no contact with them. I imagine that with windows open, the virus simply wafted about in the air current and some made it to the poor woman's apt. Imagine an infected person as your breath in the cold winter air, each exhalation creates a cloud of virus that float for minutes as they weight next to nothing and are smaller than a smoke particle, and you know how smoke travels and stays airborne. You've likely seen vids where Wuhan residents let it all out at night from their apt balconies, every person infected was spewing virus into the air.

    The virus attacks mucous membrane cells and rapes them.
    The mucous membrane cells job is to create mucous.
    Mucous attracts and embeds particles by design, like virii, smoke, etc, and keeps them from coming in contact with cells, at least that's what it's supposed to do.
    From your nose and mouth to your rectum you have mucous membrane cells.
    Your lungs are lined with them too.
    If the lungs become infected, the cells burst open releasing more virii, wich then go on to infect other cells inside the lung as well as some make it out with each exhale.
    It might be possible for someone to have been infected by an infected person's fart.

    Does this mean the Faux Media can be targeted, too? How about the Commucrat talking heads who are blaming Trump and his administration for doing nothing? Can charges be brought against them, too, since they are making, "false accusations," that can't be backed up by facts?"

    If anyone is charged with this law, I hope they get a good lawyer and sue the crap out the the city for denying them their 1st Amendment rights.... Nowhere in the 1A does it give a government the power to suspend an inalienable right just because they don't agree with what is being said.

    Thanks to the ban on flights from Europe, my daughter is a little bit pissed that her business paid first class trip to a conference in Zurich Switzerland was cancelled.

    Pure panic, and with the news media feeding the panic and loving it, toilet paper evaporates, reason is thrown out the window and it seems in the not too distant future, all heck will break out.

    All over a virus that has killed about 50 people in the USA, but nothing about influenza that killed about 37,000 last year. Or the common cold that also has killed more.

    Just think, if you lived in Newark, jack-booted thugs would be at your door right now arresting you for making "false accusations" on a social media platform. You'd be an instant criminal and your gun rights would be gone forever.

    Aren't Commucrats a wonderful bunch of people to be in positions of power?

    I presume they're going to justify such cases with "you can't yell fire in a movie theatre" type crap.

    Now it sounds like China is blaming the US for the corona virus and threatening to withhold pharmaceuticals. Why are we so intertwined with a country that is definitely not an ally?

    Yeah. They're saying our soldiers brought it over and infected the people in Wuhan.

    I'm hoping Trump starts lowering our dependence of China for everything. (Of course, Walmart won't like this....)

    And, even if he doesn't, we, as Americans, can start by not buying quite so many things made in China...decrease the demand for their goods. Other countries are more than willing to supply what China supplies now.

    I was following that story, apparently cdc tested some samples from people who died from "flu" in 2019 and found some had died of sars2 aka corona, if they died before 2020, they may have had it for weeks before they expired and they had to get it from somewhere. This also means it's already here, has been for months, and all the grocery store panic, wich has finally hit podunk Indiana, is too late.
    This admittance by cdc lead chicoms to suspect the Wuhan outbreak may have been caused by US Army personnel who participated in the Wuhan military games in Oct of 19. In other news, a guy told me today his friends little girl caught it, and she came out fine, great news. But not everyone responds to it well.

    A reminder;

    "Utilizing the SARS-CoV infectious clone, we generated and characterized a chimeric virus expressing the spike of bat coronavirus SHC014 in a mouse adapted SARS-CoV backbone. The results indicate that group 2b viruses encoding the SHC014 spike in a wild type backbone can efficiently utilize multiple ACE2 receptor orthologs, replicate efficiently in primary human airway cells, and achieve in vitro titers equivalent to epidemic strains of SARS-CoV."

    Published online 2015 Nov 9.

    surely mere coincidence

    Then I saw an article where the French are saying the whole thing is overblown and it's really not a bad outbreak.

    The reports of it coming from bushmeat are probably a cover for an accidental release from a bio-weapon lab that is known to exist in Wuhan.

    I think I'll just pop some vitamin C and see what happens.
    That vitamin C was manufactured in China...... LOL
