About a month ago was this headline: Doctors at UPMC Pittsburgh have released that they found a COVID cure and are submitting it for FDA approval and safety testing.
A Twitter acct by the name Thicc Chungus Tweeted out a comment to the effect of "how much do you wanna bet one or more of these doctors/researchers will mysteriously die. That tweet was a month ago after the story of the discovery broke.
The researcher (Bing Liu) Was killed this past Saturday at his townhouse.
A coincidence? As a long time NCIS fan, according to the leading character Leroy Jethro Gibbs, there is no such thing as a coincidence.

I predicted somewhere around 500k deaths this year from it. We're tracking to hit that.
So no, I'm the guy who has been right most of the way (sadly). You must be looking for the other guy.
I wouldn't believe any of the numbers. Numbers of cases are well below the expected infected..... rumors of false Covid deaths in hospitals for funding purposes..... and media propaganda treating the numbers like an election race just to get their ratings up.
In other words..... lay off the news, go outside, play with your kids (if you have any). Enjoy life and the togetherness this virus has given instead of constantly looking into the negatives. No way to live life if you're constantly fearing the outcome. This sucks and people are dying, but it doesn't mean you can't enjoy the people around you.

It's confusing because they break it out into confirmed and suspected cases. Would be helpful if they had a line showing the combined numbers.

So based on what a spike was yesterday, we spiked downward today correct? Just checking...

This little tid bit pisses me off
Officials said Wednesday's death count includes five deaths from April now determined to be COVID-19 related.
These facts are just adding to the hysteria

I would let mine go. The two people who she could hurt when she comes back are isolated.

Are you or someone in your household high risk? Even if the answer is yes, I'd still be open to think about it. I don't think the beach would be high risk area compared to say Walmart or a grocery store.

Have any of you heard about the study being done locally with using a combo of pepcid/Zyrtec to treat positive covid patients? Apparently it's seen really good results.

Yeah I have. Famotidine apparently acts as an inhibitor of the virus and combined with zyrtec can help with breathing related issues. Still early on but its hopeful that this can at least curb some of the harsher symptoms. We'll see.

Wonder if this would work on all the various strains of COVID-19? A study posted a few days ago from Los Alamos National Laboratory found 14 mutations of the virus. Be awesome if that indeed is the case!!
I know quite a few folks who have recently contracted it and outside of sleeping a lot, they didn't require any additional level of care outside of medicating the symptoms and waiting for it to run its course.

No 17ing way. Nothing good happens on beach trips for girls from the age of like 13 to 25.
But if she's younger than 13 and nobody in your immediate household is high risk, absolutely let her go have fun. If somebody in your immediate household is high risk, I'd probably still let her go unless there was just no way to separate her when she gets back. This virus is going to be around for a long time and it's not really realistic to expect her to avoid being exposed forever.

Zicam did wonders for the symptoms. An Albuterol inhaler is the only thing that helped with the shortness of breath.

Man it would be great if it did. Its still early but results have been good but with this bug who knows.

Tagamet works as well. Vitamin D, Zinc, and Tagamet and Zyrtec should all be effective.

Hadn't heard about Tagamet, but I take vitamin d and zinc supplements everyday with or without the corona being around. I may be immune to corona, my guts been ruined for years and I've been on every gut treatment on earth lol

If anyone develops breathing issues, get an inhaler. Not only can you not satisfy a deep breath, but it also makes you feel like youre breathing through a straw. All of the supplements help with the symptoms, but those are manageable really without anything. It's the difficulty breathing becomes the biggest issue.
