Let me ask you question: do you really care about the side effects if it saves your life ? The side effect can be treated by other drugs just like my father who had congestive heart failure and lived many years beyond what most of the doctors said he would !!! It is about choices Max and whether you wish to die from this silent killer or to fight it. I am 60 and smoke, if I get it I am surely to almost die from this shit. I chose to live for my grandchildren. Age and wisdom Max, we must pass it along to the nest generation.

Is Hydroxychloroquine the Answer to the Coronavirus Pandemic? Inside the Race to Find A COVID-19 Cure The emergence of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2019, or SARS CoV-2, has made plain our vulnerability to a novel pathogen. An estimated 160 million to 214 million people in the United States could be infected over the course of the epidemic, by some estimates. Fatalities could run from 200,000 to 1.7 million people, according to the CDC, and into the tens of millions worldwide. The lack of treatments is a startling contrast to the sophistication of current medical science, which is in something of a golden age of genomics, machine learning and big data. The coronavirus has caught us flat-footed. Yet, at the same time, it has underscored how far the tools of medicine have evolved in recent years. Just days after local infectious disease experts sent virus samples taken from two patients infected with a suspicious form or pneumonia to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, a world-renowned research laboratory, for analysis, scientists had sequenced the newly emergent pathogen's RNA and uploaded its entire 30,000-nucleotide genetic code to the cloud.\ Rapid response In recent years, technologies that allow rapid sequencing of genetic material have become standard equipment in most top research laboratories. Because of these tools, scientists were able to state with relative confidence that the current virus is closely related to the SARS coronavirus that hit in 2003, as well as very closely related to a bat coronavirus found in a cave in Yunnan, China, back in 2017. With this knowledge, scientists dusted off the files from that outbreak and picked up where other scientists left off. To survive, these patients require mechanical ventilators, which can force higher concentrations of oxygen into the parts of the lungs that are still functioning, allowing them to rest, recover and preserve precious energy needed to outlast the viral attack. Antiviral medication could shorten the time patients need to be on ventilators—and perhaps prevent many of them from needing one in the first place. One of the most promising ideas is to develop new drugs that can attenuate the immune response to keep the lungs functioning adequately. "People are dying because they are losing the ability to breathe—because their lungs are filling with inflammation," says George D. Yancopoulos, Regeneron's President and Chief Scientific Officer. "That's what's happening. That's a fact. The question is, what's causing the inflammation? If you shut that off, basically the lungs calm down, the cells leave the lung and they are also not making all this bad stuff."

FDA Says Hydroxychloroquine and Chloroquine Can Be Used to Treat Coronavirus (Newsweek Article) Hydroxychloroquine rated 'most effective therapy' by doctors for coronavirus: Global survey Drug known for treating malaria used by U.S. doctors mostly for high-risk COVID-19 patients. An international poll of more than 6,000 doctors released Thursday found that the antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine was the most highly rated treatment for the novel coronavirus. The survey conducted by Sermo, a global health care polling company, of 6,227 physicians in 30 countries found that 37% of those treating COVID-19 patients rated hydroxychloroquine as the “most effective therapy” from a list of 15 options. Of the physicians surveyed, 3,308 said they had either ordered a COVID-19 test or been involved in caring for a coronavirus patient, and 2,171 of those responded to the question asking which medications were most effective. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration gave chloroquine and its next-generation derivative, hydroxychloroquine, emergency-use authorization Monday for treating the novel coronavirus, although the drug was already being used off-label by some doctors and hospitals for COVID-19 patients.

Leora, Malia General Chat Topic #19 2020 April
Thestarider replied to pulo filipe's topic in Leora & Paul (08/14/19)
I watched this lovely woman grow from nearly puberty to the fine specimen of womanhood she has become. Intellectual stimulating, artistic, animal loving, clean and organized, excellent cook, woman who I would love to be married too, became a showgirl like the Barcelona bordellos. This is far below the standard of the Matriarch, "The Goddess" the reason I subscribed. So I would say if you are going to play like Barcelona Beauties then let us get after it just like those who were once condemned by the goddess. -

My fair taled white striped furry wonder from the forest , she is scared to death that she may very well like the attention. Attention she will get beyound her wildest fantaies if she would let go of her inhibitions and give in to inner desires to please the voyeurs. The teasing massage shows is somthing I never thought the Matriarch would resort too unless it led to the voyeurs dream come true. -

I guess once a rookie, always a rookie, thank goodness for the Goddess of RLC Lovable Lucius Leora, the matriarch of RLC. I once had the highest hopes for Malia, but she doesn't have the desire to become a shinning star, just another who will become forgotten the day she finally leaves the voyeurs world. Could be a shinning star, but has chosen not be memorable and will become forgettable. TOO BAD -

Gunnison County: non-residents, tourists must stay out, violators receive jail, fine GUNNISON COUNTY, Colo. — Gunnison County residents now have a new reason to stay inside, and officials want to make sure the message is heard: non-residents and tourists must stay out. It requires all non-residents of Gunnison County to leave as soon as they can or request a waiver explaining their reasons to stay. Non-essential businesses such as hotels, day-care centers are required to shut down under the order. It’s the first within the state to impose criminal charges for a violation, and goes well beyond previous state-issued orders. A new public health order enacted on Friday gives up to 18 months in jail and a possible 5,000 dollar fine to people violating the order.

Key Coronavirus Model Now Predicts Many Fewer U.S. Deaths A Sunday update of a prominent COVID-19 forecasting model suggests that fewer lives will be lost during the first wave of the coronavirus outbreak than previously thought. The University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) now predicts that 81,766 people will die of COVID-19 in the U.S. through early August. When the model was last updated, on April 2, it predicted 11,765 deaths more deaths, for a total of 93,531. he model, which has been cited by the White House, relies on numbers from China, Italy, Spain, and areas around the U.S. The change in prediction is due to “a massive infusion of new data,” IHME director Dr. Christopher Murray said in a press release. According to its website, the IHME model was developed to “provide hospitals, health-care workers, policymakers, and the public with crucial information about what demands COVID-19 may place on hospital capacity and resources, so that they could begin to plan.” The model’s latest update includes several important changes related to that planning. Many fewer hospital beds will be needed at peak than previously anticipated, according to the new projections. The April 5 update predicts the need for 140,823 total hospital beds and 29,210 ICU beds at the peak of the outbreak. Those numbers are down 121,269 and 10,517, respectively. The model also revised downward the prediction for the number of ventilators needed at the height of the outbreak. It now predicts the need for 18,992 ventilators, down from 31,782. One thing that didn’t change between the April 2 and April 5 models is the projected date of the outbreak’s peak. The model still predicts an April 16 apex for the daily COVID-19 death rate. Hospital use is expected to peak on April 15.

We should get back to the subject at hand, We all know where this and all SARS-Conrona viruses have come from. It is not Germany, or the UK, or the EU, or even the USA, but from those who represent the flag I posted. Just think where the world would be today if only they would have been straight forward and honest with the world ? Look at all the suffering in the world because of that flag. China world dominance in 2030 and yes you are selling your heart and soul. Confirmed 1,139,207+105,729 cases of infection, Deaths 60,877+6,508. -

MMM News: President Trump Invokes Defense Protection Act Against 3M Invoking the Defense Protection Act against 3M allows President Trump to secure supplies from the company during a time of crisis. The crisis is the coronavirus from China and Trump wants the N-95 face masks made by the company. This order will allow the Secretary of Homeland Security to acquire as many of the face masks as required from 3M and its subsidiaries with the help of the Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The order from President Trump comes as 3M continues to sell face maks made in the U.S. to other countries. That includes Canada and Latin America. An MMM news release notes that halting sales to other countries could cause them to stop exporting face masks and other supplies to America. -

Well seems like we are getting the haters here on a decent thread. I know how to fix that. 😉 New numbers for the EU and USA, just plain scary now as they really add up with all the testing being done. EU total cases of infection = 546,912 Deaths =42,443 death rate to reported infections = 7.76% Recovered = 90,913 = 16.62% USA total cases of infection = 273,469 Deaths = 7,064 death rate to reported infections = 2.58% Recovered = 12,044 = 4.41% -

A video that is really worth watching, please the time to watch and form you own opinion. -
Yes it does, do you realty think are disclosing the actual numbers, NO WAY. Misinformation at it's best. The US is reporting everything just like the EU, but Russia and China (NOT) There are so many people that died in Wuhan that they are still burning the bodies. You can not trust China. Or should I say that you can trust China about as much as you can trust Russia and North Korea.

Foamy and TBG, I tried a new bourbon tonight, recommended by my bourbon club. it was raked 7 out 10 on this months list. I can see why now, although the bourbon connoisseur's are turning over in their graves right now. It is from Colorado if you believe that shit !!! But it is well worth the price.
