coronavirus

I personally know two people both tested positive and did not know they had it.  Asymptomatic, both are fine and self exiling themselves but feel nothing. Everyone tested around them came back negative, including me.

Cuomo 2024!

Watching the different governors and people talk about corona virus, here is my rating:
Trump - horrible 2/10 - I feel dumber listening to him
Pence - below avg 4/10 - dry, wooden.
Dr. Birk - Good 8/10
Cuomo - Excellent 10/10 - calms me down and high charisma.
Newsom - Ok 6/10 - Sounds like William Shatner
Fauci - Ok 6/10
Kushner - Good 8/10 - Well spoken


Surgeon General...that Lisp is really distracting. "you don'th needth to wear a maskth!"

 

[irvinebullhousing]

Anybody want to take a stab at how long this shelter in place will last? My bet is July 10. Around 3 months after the initial Trump premature ejac. And in about 1 month President Trump will start wearing mask, after today refuse to wear mask.

Self congratulatory posts aside... how is everyone doing?

Any TI member know anyone personally who has Covid? A relative of a friend of mine thinks they have it, waiting for test results.

A friend of mine that now lives in Canada thinks he had it.  All the symptoms were there, and he was bedridden for three weeks with low energy and trouble breathing.  He's pulling out of it now, but still weak.  Since he wasn't bad enough to be hospitalized, they wouldn't test him, so there's no way of knowing for sure.

I know a young family of three that all had pretty bad/severe symptoms matching COVID symptoms (104 fever/loss of taste & smell, vomiting etc) This was around the middle of last month but they were not able to get a test because they were not considered high-risk, had not traveled internationally, and had not been in contact with anyone that was considered high-risk.

I think I?ll wait to get the antibody test to tell me if I had it.  Anyone know when that will be available.  If I have the antibody, I?m going out on the town like it?s nobodies business.

Kenkoko/IAC renter - are local hospitals using some of the treatments other countries are using? Or something similar to the above treatment?

Just curious what hospitals in the US are doing.

Sorry for the late reply. Been busy at work.

The data is pretty thin for all these treatments. Medical studies are ongoing or limited in nature. So pretty much everything is being tried but there is no magic bullet. IV Remdesivir (antiviral) is undergoing clinical trials now but has limited availability for emergency / compassionate usage outside the study. Hydroxycholorquine+Azithromycin is another regimen  that showed decreased viral load. But the French study only enrolled 36 patients and was not randomized and had limited followup. Availability of both hydroxycholoruine and chloroquine has become very limited in the outpatient setting. Most health care systems including Kaiser are cutting off the drug for outpatients. Other adjuncts could include Vitamin C (high serum levels in mice model show protection for lung epithelium tissue) and steroids for patients with severe disease with ARDS (badly inflamed lungs--patient will be on a ventilator).

CDC has a new weekly report up.  Lots of good information.

Gavin Newsom says marijuana dealers are essential and must stay open during the covid outbreak:

One of the few things Newsom and I agree on.

Masks should be mandatory.  If you are out in public you must wear a mask or the cops should give you a ticket.
Masks flatten the curve because 25% - 50% have no symptoms and are spreading it to everyone else just by talking next to them.


Surgeon General Lisp made a huge mistake a few weeks back telling people not to wear masks.
It would have slowed transmission.


CDC is also to blame...bunch of tards.

I predict, in the very near future it will become quite fashionable to get the coronavirus. >

Gov says some boomerang effect in Asia so may be a longer shelter in.

 

[Innosint]

Taiwan actually had COVID-19 all under control

until the most recent wave of exchange students travel back home from EU and NA.

Even with most of them doing self quarantine, an outbreak is looking in Taiwan is looking to be the most likely outcome....

So yeah. longer shelter in place may be a wise choice, but that requires all the idiots who are still partying to stay inside.

Yeah, I'm curious when the anti body test will be available.  I got sick in mid-Feb for about a week and wonder if I got it as some of the symptoms were the same (cough, sneezing, slight fever, weak, and light headache).

sneezing is unlikely, probably a common cold.

Antibody test available at a Little Saigon doctor office -https://www.facebook.com/daomedicalgroup/

He bought the tests from S. Korea so not FDA approved.

 

[aquabliss]

A couple weeks back I had low grade fever and body aches (lasted 2-3 Days), but very mild.  My wife felt the same thing about 5 Days after me, and same symptoms.  I?d really like to know if I had it.  Bring on the antibody test.  Maybe I?ll have to venture to Bolsa.

A friend (Asian) just had someone tried to forcibly enter his car via passenger door at San Canyon USPS Parking lot while he was in his car.

Good thing he drove a Tesla and the ass hole does'nt know how to open it.


I can't even say travel in groups anymore... but I guess becareful when you are by your self, especially if you are Asian, even in Irvine.

 

[aquabliss]

Missed something.  What does the person trying to forcibly enter the car have to do with being Asian?
