Please don't expose your ignorance so blatantly ... if traditional masks are in short supply and needed by first responders, medical professional and those that are ill with this china virus, then God Bless OUR U.S. President Trump for guiding American's, and Canadians that are listening, to use an alternate resource for covering their mouth/nose ... with a thicker scarf .... had he said bandana, would you have then approved Doc?

Geeze, people like you, Jalimon and now womanizer should let the guy do his job, get behind the efforts of the team and NOT be part of the Fake News problem .... frankly this situation needs a rallying cry and what you and Womanizer posts is certainly counterproductive to this global situation.

Larky, he didn’t say anything close to that, lol. Dude I have no political affiliation, but he literally said when asked if people should use face masks in public that they can if they want and that they can wear scarves too and that they are thicker and better. He didn’t say keep the masks for the medical professionals and use scarves, where are you imagining that from? Never! He said people can wear masks if they want as an answer to the burning question by public and press, mask or not?

Jared just looked adorable at the press conference today. “My dad in law got a call from his homie, who works in a hospital. His homie was like “yo dude can u hook us up with some vents? My dad in law said “I got u yo” he then told me, Jared, to hook his boy up. I called the hospital and said “yo homies! whatcha need?” They said “ vents, u little bitch, fucking vents!!” I said “ yo, I gotcha u homies, u know Jared will always be there for U”.

Problem solved fake media!!

peace out

JK (that’s for Jared kuschner)

word to your mothers

Donald Trump told the world today in his daily press briefing that scarves may actually be as effective as any
face mask since "it's thicker"

Until help arrives from China ($$$s) ...that is.

Now that China is back to normal, almost, since the virus stayed in one place, unlike spreading all over the world thousands of KMs away
yet cities in China like Beijing, Shanghai stayed untouched. (Maybe they could have shared the secret ???).

A potential vaccine.

Why not mass test it next week?

Did you get lost one day over in the Brietbart comment section and somehow end up here? Because what you write is of the same tone and insight.

The Nature Boy,

My own personal experience is I used to live in Markham several years ago and is an Asian mall there. I used to pass by there often to go to work and let me tell you right outside there was trash everywhere it smelled like rotten fruits and vegetables. A lot of their restaurants are not sanitary and many had health infractions like meat being stored in temperatures not cold enough. Having said that I can only imagine how it is in China. They eat all kind of meats when you are not careful viruses can mutate and jump to humans. Problem is SARS and especially Covid-19 is contagious. Remember mad cow disease officially known as Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy is something that got into humans due to farmers feeding cows dead carcasses of cows that spontaneously developed the disease but this disease was not contagious like Covid-19 but it was deadly.

Well said.
@Patron - you may be well-versed in some other shit but development of vaccines is not one of them so spare everyone your ignorance of medical topics.

Now Over 6,000 Dead in the USA

The death toll has been about a 1,000 a day the past 2 days:

Posts on an obscure Montreal hooker board on a thread with maybe a dozen participants, most of whom are not even US citizens doesn’t stop the US president from doin his job.

Exactly unfortunately. And what a lousy job he’s been doing!

For those interested in development of vaccines and what its a multi-year process:

[jalimon]

patron malaria pills and hiv anti-viral drugs took years of research.

But i understand your point by speeding up the process. Still choosing the wrong one could lead to wasting FDA ressources, time and more death.

Short term its ultra rapid massive testing methods with results within minutes... Thats the only short term solutions to get out of our homes before a vaccine is out.

I`m tired of all this bickering, blame throwing and fake news …..even by trusted experts like Fauchi.

Here is some advice that may save you from spreading the virus or infecting yourself.

I saw a slow motion film of a sneeze. The bulk of it travels 5 to 6 feet and stops , droplets linger in the air and eventually drop to the ground. If they contain coronavirus then that virus will live at least a few hours and can be picked up by your shoes as you walk outside or in a pharmacy or super market.

So to prevent spread of the virus in your home....take off your shoes before you enter and rinse the soles and spray the shoes with a fine rubbing alcohol mist.
Wash tour hands right after .

Stay safe and please think of all possible consequences before you act. Stop blaming politicians and the press and start thanking first responders and health care workers for the sacrifice they make .

 

[Doc Holliday]

Now we're learning that Trump has ordered 3M to stop sending N95 masks to Canada. Just great!

The other night i was watching a very good documentary on PBS about the 1918 flu pandemic. Medical authorities learned many things from the pandemic. At first they believed they had developed a vaccine for the bacteria. But they realized it wasn't working since it wasn't a bacteria. It was a virus, which at the time wasn't visible under the microscopes they were using at the time. So how can you develop a cure to something you can't see?

Everyone was wearing masks in public but people were still being infected as ever! They realized masks were inneffective against millions of the virus' particles in the air. Those millions of particles could very easily get through the masks. N95 masks have since been invented but they are not effective for everyone. For example i got tested several times over the years for the N95 mask and although it was a great mask for me to wear in the past over time it was no longer effective for me since it didn't make a perfect seal with my face. Therefore i had to wear other types of masks.

One thing i learned about the 1918 flu in the documentary is that the pandemic ended fairly abrupty over the following year or two. Experts concluded that the virus simply ran out of hosts where it could live in & continue to spread itself. By that time people had either died from it or the ones who survived had developed antibodies to it due to previous infection.

So until each person (healthy or not) can get tested on this planet and a vaccine is invented then the only hope we seem to have is social distancing. Social distancing works but everyone has to be on board. You can't have states telling people to stay home & apart from one another and other states (all red states, by the way) ignoring the directives & trying to live life just like the coronarivus doesn't exist. It's like a swimming pool. You can have 10 people in the swimming pool and 9 out of those 10 people don't pee in the pool while only 1 person out of those decides to pee in the pool. It's only 1 out of 10 people who peed in the pool but because of that 1 idiot the entire pool is now infected with pee!

25% who got Coronavirus don't have any symptoms. That mean, the Spread will never end.

 

[jalimon]

Man911 some studies in Iceland just reported 50% asymptomatics cases. As I wrote before only very rapid massive testing can help short term. Until we get a vaccines in a year or 2.

So we just learn Micheal Rosenberg is in critical care because of Covid-19. On March 16 the family did not cancel the wedding of their daughter. Half participant were from New York. Of course none respected the mandatory quarantine for visitors. 200-300 attended. He is one of richest in Quebec. The fact that he may now die does not do me a thing because they were obviously very stupid (to be polite) to go ahead with that wedding. It's the fact many other may die because of their stupidity!

 

[Man911]

Man911 some studies in Iceland just reported 50% asymptomatics cases. As I wrote before only very rapid massive testing can help short term. Until we get a vaccines in a year or 2.

I agreed with you. But there still 4700 people waiting for the results in Quebec. How can We test 8 millions persons?
Also, when the lockdown is over or partially in 2 or 3 month, there still 25 to 50% asymtomatics, It could be your friends, neighbours or co-workers or SP. It not their fault, the contamination still go on.
Life Will never be the same.

 

[EagerBeaver]

All of the cases in Fairfield County, CT resulted from the same thing, a rich family in Westport decided to throw a big birthday party for someone who was turning 40 and invited visitors from New York and other countries. And half of the people or more at the party developed symptoms and I think a few died. This is what happens when social distancing isn't observed.

Brooke Baldwin has Covid-19:

[jalimon]

We are testing a lot in Quebec. Results are still slow... But we are still far better right now then Ontario. Or some US states who will only test if you have symptoms!

The thing to know is how EB just explained. Outspread of such virus are dangerous mainly in big social gathering. With rapid massive testing authorities would be able to test everyone involved in such gathering very quickly and then reduce the spread each one of these people could have. Containment is the short term solution to improve our life until a vaccine is found. But for that we need accurate 15 min test possible. Some were already FDA approved but not yet in massive production.

As for life never being the same you are correct. Maybe the current situation is the planet giving us a warning that we need to slow down. That we are too much and we are polluting way too much.

I think we will have an answer to that very soon, just watch the numbers exploding all over, especially in Ontario.

beautiful article about us in North American are taking things not far enough and that social distancing and well “and then some” goes a long way to quell the virus. We need to get efficient
