Enjoy your quarantine listening while you can
An honest mistake. Lucian Truskott, the America hater. Don’t be a hater, be a lover. Running can sometimes dissipate hate and anger. 🏃♂️My mistake, frankly I dont know him... But his Trump analysis is spot on...By the way I dont hate anybody....Life is too short, but I hate the situation where some place us all.... I will go my 5 miles tomorrow thanks for the advice …. |
Empires fall but some survive by the cultural legacy, Greek cities, Roman and Christian empire, for example gives us something that always live in us....Others, Mogol empire for example gives much less to nourish the soul....Chinese empire span 3 thousand years and is going on ….Cultural value is all, weapons means nothing except by accident... |
US has some great hospitals . Here in Minnesota an elder , like me, has the best medical deal in the country . But US docs are no better than the ones in most of the world nor are they worse . People are People . I have been in hospitals in Germany, Poland and Japan and they are as good as the one I go to here in St.Paul that is a Level 1 trauma , top 50 hospital .Anyone who thinks the Chinese are not 1st class scientists is a fool . The Problem in USA is the same one that has allowed every Empire in human history to fall . The people never entertained the thought it could ever fall . And yes , a country that cover an entire continent , stretches from the equator to the north pole , from Maine to Guam and has bases in a hundred lands is an Empire . P.S . When I was in an Army Field Hospital in Vietnam the nurses kept you alive . A nurse does the work of God ., |
chrshanl37 Like many other leaders they lead nothing....this crisis is a proof for all to see....Macron in France does not postpone some secondary election days ago.... |
I read it all and it simply validated what I've know for the last three years. To take it down would be both negligent and harmful as there's an educational value to it for those who are wondering what is going on and why. By the way, some evil genius who works in an ER came up with a ventilator hack that can service 4 patients from the same machine. All the best, Nonoise |
chrshanl37, This was really informational. However, if you intend for people to read it in the future, try to keep it under five sentences or your message will be lost. Who is going to read this much of the poetry in the evening? Especially such a poorly constructed poetry. |

mahgister FDA just approve chloroquine use, and Bayer offer to send it... >>>>>Are you sure? I watched the noon briefing by Trump et al and he misspoke, the drug is not immediately available but currently under study by FDA. The head of FDA the former cancer doctor indicated it would not (rpt not) be ready immediately and that FDA would be thorough and careful. Did FDA approve it only six hours later? Not bloody likely! Nobody would trust that. Hel-loo! |
Sadly because there is no definitive treatment for SARS Covid-19 we are reaching for straws. The study quoted had too few patients to be statistically significant. HCQ does show antiviral activity for HIV when combined with other specific anti-HIV drugs. HCQ is not benign. There are dose related effects and for doses greater than 400 mg daily the side effects are significant including possible permanent blindness. The trials will take many weeks and it’s difficult to design trials for mildly symptomatic patients. The Chinese physicians found no difference in ICU admission or mortality but HCQ was added late in the course. For now, hold your horses. P.S. I just retired from 37 years of medicine with direct patient contact and the last 28 years were Emergency Medicine. |
FDA just approve chloroquine use, and Bayer offer to send it... Good news because chloroquine obstruct it seems the worst when you suffer the infection... Great vitamine c dose can act also to help....There will be other drug available but this one is cheap already here and relatively safe...Good news and we need it... |
Why so angry, grasshopper? Don’t dwell on the past. It can do no good. Woulda, shoulda, coulda. God gave you two ears and one mouth for a reason. Who cares about China? The US has the best doctors in the world. It was the US military experts at Ft. Detrick, MD, home to the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC), with its bio-defense agency, the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases(USAMRIID) who solved Ebola and other recent pandemics. |
The French did a small clinical study using hydroxychoroquine and azithromycin on 20 people and found it held promise and further testing should be done.the Chinese produce a study with great number of cases... Chinese science is trash? When the times is urging not using a 4 cent product with very low negative effects is akin to stupidity... |
Chloroquine will be of no profit at all for the pharma empire... Do you know how to read between the lines and inform yourself? This chloroquine is already conclusively known for 80 years …. And proved on the frontline to be useful.... where was the frontline of this disease? in China... By the way in a week even the most dreaming guy anywhere in north america will know that waiting for other costly remedies will be foolish....There is NO TIME... Chloroquine cost 4 cent ….Read Wikipedia.... This disease growth diffusion is exponential do you know what this means? |
This quarantine will be very sad.... I walk few hours ago, and I listen a young man saying to his friend that he loose his job driving truck... I remember my anxiety looking for a job in the recession petroleum years around 78-80...It was a piece of cake compared to now.... I pity the young...And the old that will wait to be saved …. |
from CNN today. Cant believe people are jumping to conclusions. When asked about chloroquine last month, Dr. Janet Diaz of the World Health Organization said "there is no proof that that is an effective treatment at this time. We recommend that therapeutics be tested under ethically approved clinical trials to show efficacy and safety." At the time, she said the drugs that were being prioritized by WHO’s research and development efforts were antivirals, a separate type of drug that includes remdesivir, which is also the focus of clinical trials in China and the US. I also heard two doctors interviewed make the same comments saying it's too early to say and the study wasn't conclusive. |
nonoise this drug is used for decades without great negative effect....The side negative effect comes from too much or in exceptional medical case...One of the cheapest and safest drug.... wiki quote |
Chloroquine has been around for quite some time and it works well in a petri dish but no human trials have been done to see what benefits can be had with this virus. I read where it's not good in large amounts as it severely impacts the eyes and can lead to blindness (hydroxychloroquine retinopathy, often referred to as bulls-eye maculopathy) After my cataract surgery, I'll pass. All the best, Nonoise |
Chloroquine is used for decade in malaria cases without great negative effects.... This is a well know totally CHEAP costless drugs that can help greatly….You are right millercarbon it is good news...The result about chloroquine Chinese study were published In "Nature" not Reader Digest... But the Chinese takes draconian measure to contain the disease with success after 3 months... I think this measure are necessary if we dont want to go the Italy road... If you want to know how bad it is listen to a New-York doctor on the frontline : https://dnyuz.com/2020/03/19/a-new-york-doctors-coronavirus-warning-the-sky-is-falling/ «Alarmist is not a word anyone has ever used to describe me before. I’m a board-certified surgeon and critical care specialist... » |
mapman Yes but neither should people soft step around issues involving life or death. >>>>Huh? What are you talking about? Nobody is soft stepping around anything. Far from it. You can go back to sleep again. |
My neighbor who was the head of the Shuttle propulsion system once told me always support your boss. My boss once told me, it’s a love-in, referring to the project, both government and contractors. Things would generally work a lot smoother if people would dispense with all the rancor and personal attacks. I’m referring to the whole Coronavirus task force, I.e., everybody. |
