He had the CEOs of all the big box store chains there in the Rose Garden and each got their turn to step up to the microphone and say their piece. This is a national effort.

A recommendation from our (France) Minister of Health = It is recommended not to take a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug such as ibuprofen, as it could mask the symptoms of Covid19. Cortisone and ibuprofen could worsen the disease and the patients who took ibuprofen arrived at the hospital in worse condition than others, especially young people under 50/60 years of age. In case of fever you can take paracetamol. https://www.rtbf.be/info/monde/detail_l-ibuprofene-et-la-cortisone-pourraient-ils-aggraver-l-infection-par-covid-19?id=10457684 Thanks, I didn't take one anyway last night here Rarely take otc Pain relievers.

What details and what proof of your premise about never before and unparalleled danger and the rest is there on this? Lots of people deathly ill and what as a percentage of population do you consider lots? There was a time when something like the Bubonic Plague would run it's course with horrible consequences and no way top stop it but today these things can be fought. Italy has an older average population than any other European country. Elderly are by nature less resistant to ALL disease so of course they will die more often from these types of things and that is the nature of life itself. There is a far greater percentage of older people who die each year than young people and there is nothing that will ever change that. I hear 6:00 news channels speaking and not the reality that is reflected by cold hard statistics. Calm down and quit watching and believing the TV set. Reading an article just now that states 4/5 of all the deaths in the EU are among those who are over 65. So yes based on that you could easily say 4/5 of all resultant Wuhan flu deaths will be in that same group and it will not change. That same group will die of something far more often because that is just life. I am 67 so I am now in that group but I am not going to let some hyped up thing scare me to death. If it were young and the children dying the most darned right I would pay far more attention than old people. The young have not lived long enough to become old where each and every one of us, if we make it that far and most do, will unavoidably die. No cure for age. "perfect killing machine for the elderly" is media BS. Age is the perfect killing machine of the elderly. Well when your grandkids show up with RSV pneumonia and need critical care and can’t get that because the hospital pediatric ICU is filled with sick old people then you will have your own personal validation. I sincerely hope that does not happen to you....... but that is happening right now in Italy. We can be the country that ‘slows’ the spread of this virus or the country that allows the virus to plow it healthcare systems under. It is not the deaths, it is how many deathly ill people can we care for at one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maynard May take a look. Just remember or know, paranoia is a primal defense mechanism. A little bit of it is necessary for survival. Too much well, maybe not so good or relevant in some cases, of course. Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These lozenges have been proven to be effective in blocking coronavirus (and most other viruses) from multiplying in your throat and nasopharynx. Use as directed several times each day when you begin to feel ANY "cold-like" symptoms beginning. It is best to lie down and let the lozenge dissolve in the back of your throat and nasopharynx. Cold-Eeze lozenges is one brand available, but there are other brands available... James Robb, MD FCAP BTW, on Friday I started to feel the symptoms of a cold coming on--a day after going to the grocery...corresponding to the typical incubation time for colds. Immediately I started zinc lozenges by mouth, allowing them to dissolve slowly. I used 5 of those lozenges on Friday and another 2 on Saturday. I can't prove it but this is the first time that a cold hasn't progressed into the full-blown symptoms lasting two weeks, etc. The nasal/throat cold symptoms stopped on Friday evening. I been taking regular supplements of zinc a number of years now (I tend to get most inhalant viruses that happen along--I believe because I have such trouble with allergies all the time, and touch my nose a lot using tissues, etc.) Since I've been on zinc supplements, I've gone from a one or two colds per year to once every three years or less. Taking zinc has other benefits, too. A zinc a day keeps the urologist away. Chris 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schu Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 How long can Covid-19 live on surfaces... But how long can the new coronavirus linger on surfaces, anyway? The short answer is, we don't know. A new analysis found that the virus can remain viable in the air for up to 3 hours, on copper for up to 4 hours, on cardboard up to 24 hours and on plastic and stainless steel up to 2 to 3 days. However, this study, which was published in the preprint database medRxiv on Wednesday (March 11), has not yet yet been peer-reviewed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is what it is and, when we know more about what is, there is likely tentative plans plans in place to go a month or longer. Would like to think that contingent plans are in place since, we are behind the curve it is being said. Wisdom should reckon on the unforseen... Old saying.
