Re: Wuhan Flu Truth and Big Brother Narratives
The one thing that was disturbing, is that the company that actually runs the Hospital (which has 45 covid cases at the moment), forbids testing of medical staff, unless they have symptoms. So this MD, who was in contact with people who have Covid, is not allowed to be tested, not for Covid, not for antibodies.
He said it's probably because if any staff gets tested and it is positive, they have to quarantine for two weeks, and the company does not want that.
Is it any wonder the US medical situation is so fucked up?

No need to guess. There wasn't even a test last year. The virus hadn't been sequenced yet.

Got the scoop on current treatment, and he confirmed what so many have said, the Covid was around a year ago, he had it. Lots of people had it in the medical world.
Lots more discussed, but fuck, will it matter?
Maybe it's so. But conclusions made without verification aren't particularly solid evidence.

100% efficacy against severe Covid. That's the dream. We couldn't have hoped for a more effective vaccine than this.Primary efficacy analysis of the Phase 3 COVE study of mRNA-1273 involving 30,000 participants included 196 cases of COVID-19, of which 30 cases were severe
Vaccine efficacy against COVID-19 was 94.1%; vaccine efficacy against severe COVID-19 was 100%

The public advisory committee meeting that will review the Moderna data is scheduled for December 17. Would be worth watching, and some of the data will be made public before and during the meeting.

The test issue is right now.
The "probably had it" was over a year ago. Obviously there was no test a year ago.
Unless you were in China. They knew about it a year ago, but didn't tell anyone.

If the government claimed deaths by bears increased by that amount, I would be a bit skeptical. Also, where did the bears come from?
Also, why don't you fucking do something about the bears? Telling me to stay at home and wait for the bears to go away would seem a really bad solution to the bear problem. Telling me that going to work would cause a bear to kill my elderly parents would also be met with some skepticism.
There is a long list of bear related questions here.

https://www.npr.org/sections/coronaviru ... study-saysCoronavirus Was In U.S. Weeks Earlier Than Previously Known, Study Says
he coronavirus was present in the U.S. weeks earlier than scientists and public health officials previously thought, and before cases in China were publicly identified, according to a new government study published Monday.
The virus and the illness that it causes, COVID-19, were first identified in Wuhan, China, in December 2019, but it wasn't until about Jan. 20 that the first confirmed COVID-19 case, from a traveler returning from China, was found in the U.S.
However, new findings published in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases suggest that the coronavirus, known officially as SARS-CoV-2, had infected people in the U.S. even earlier.
"SARS-CoV-2 infections may have been present in the U.S. in December 2019, earlier than previously recognized," the authors said.
This discovery adds to evidence that the virus was quietly spreading around the world before health officials and the public were aware, disrupting previous thinking of how the illness first emerged and how it has since evolved. It also shows the virus's presence in U.S. communities likely didn't start with the first case identified case in January.
Researchers came to this conclusion after the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention analyzed blood donations collected by the American Red Cross from residents in nine states. They found evidence of coronavirus antibodies in 106 out of 7,389 blood donations. The CDC analyzed the blood collected between Dec. 13 and Jan. 17.
The presence of antibodies in a person's blood means they were exposed to a virus, in this case the coronavirus, and that their body's immune system triggered a defensive response.
Researchers found coronavirus antibodies in 39 samples from California, Oregon, and Washington as early as Dec. 13 to Dec. 16. They also discovered antibodies in 67 samples from Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin in early January — before widespread outbreaks in those states.

Details & links to papers: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-heal ... SKBN2852ZINo benefit seen from plasma treatment in severe COVID-19; virus may hurt male fertility
The following is a roundup of some of the latest scientific studies on the novel coronavirus and efforts to find treatments and vaccines for COVID-19, the illness caused by the virus.
Plasma treatment shows no benefit in severe COVID-19
Blood plasma from COVID-19 survivors was of little benefit to patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia, researchers in Argentina reported on Tuesday in The New England Journal of Medicine. So-called convalescent plasma, which delivers COVID-19 survivors' antibodies to infected people, did not improve critically ill patients' health status or reduce their risk of dying from the disease any better than a placebo. Researchers randomly assigned 333 hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia to receive convalescent plasma or a placebo. After 30 days, they saw no significant differences in patients' symptoms or health. Mortality rates were nearly the same: 11% in the convalescent plasma group and 11.4% in the placebo group, a difference not deemed statistically significant. It is still possible that convalescent plasma might help less-sick patients who get the treatment earlier in their illness, said study leader Dr. Ventura Simonovich of the Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires. A separate randomized trial from Argentina, posted on Saturday on medRxiv ahead of peer review, found that when elderly COVID-19 patients received convalescent plasma within 72 hours after their symptoms began instead of a placebo, they were significantly less likely to become severely ill.
COVID-19 may hurt male fertility
Evidence of testes damage from COVID-19 has been accumulating in a series of small autopsy studies, suggesting that the new coronavirus could have an impact on male fertility.
...
Mutations do not appear to help coronavirus spread faster
The novel coronavirus is picking up genetic changes as it spreads around the world, but the mutations currently documented do not appear to help it spread faster, scientists said on Wednesday in the journal Nature Communications.
...
Most Americans still lack COVID-19 antibodies
As of September, the vast majority of U.S. residents still had not been exposed to the new coronavirus, antibody test results suggest.

Dr Joseph Varon believes he is fighting two wars. A war against coronavirus and a war against stupidity.
The chief medical officer at United Memorial Medical Center in Houston went viral earlier this week when an image of him comforting an elderly patient ended up on social media.
The US is seeing a rise in the number of people entering hospital with Covid-19 and several states are concerned that healthcare facilities could soon be overwhelmed.

Re: Wuhan Flu Truth and Big Brother Narratives
Given the random nature of blood donation, that means that 1.5% of the population had been infected by 17 January. That's almost 5 million people.
It's bollocks.
What it does is show the possibility that a similar infection gives protection against Covid, which has been long suspected.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-55199058Covid: Argentina passes tax on wealthy to pay for virus measures
Argentina has passed a new tax on its wealthiest people to pay for medical supplies and relief measures amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Senators passed the one-off levy - dubbed the "millionaire's tax" - by 42 votes to 26 on Friday.
Those with assets worth more than 200 million pesos ($2.5m; £1.8m) - some 12,000 people - will have to pay.
Argentina has recorded close to 1.5 million infections and almost 40,000 deaths from the coronavirus.
It has been hit hard by the pandemic, becoming the fifth country worldwide to report one million confirmed cases in October despite only having a population of about 45 million people - making it the smallest nation at the time to surpass that figure.
Lockdown measures have further dented an economy struggling with unemployment, high poverty levels and massive government debt. Argentina has been in recession since 2018.
One of the law's authors said it would only affect about 0.8% of taxpayers. Those affected will pay a progressive rate of up to 3.5% on wealth in Argentina and up to 5.25% on that outside the country.
AFP news agency reports that of the money raised, 20% will go to medical supplies, 20% to relief for small and medium-sized businesses, 20% to scholarships for students, 15% to social developments, and the remaining 25% to natural gas ventures.
