| No I wasn't asking for a spirited debate, just seeing how others view it. For myself, I am hard pressed to understand how nurses, grocery workers, and bus drivers are daily risking their lives in some way that compares to the potential now to be exposed. Thanks for offering your opinion Gana!...…………..I also find the wages music stars, and sports figures get is ludicrous |

| Both sides of the aisle (so I guess it isn't political?) have discussed an essential worker pay bump as part of whatever next stimulus bill comes out. I personally would be for it. | ||

| Since everyone here has been a great support to me while I've been dealing with my health issues that I decided I'd share this news with you all. The physical rehab facility/nursing home that I now live in, informed me late this afternoon that we have our first covid-19 resident. This person is segregated on a separate floor that is now dedicated to covid-19 patients. The staff are all taking extreme precautions with the residents. I've been encouraged to wear a mask when other people are in my room. They provide masks. I am getting some more masks from my exwife and I am ordering a neck gaiter from Walmart (along with the 4 Allegiance Arts comic books due out next week). I'm not extremely worried, but like they say, shit just got real. To top it all off, the local paper, The St Cloud Times reported that the New York Times named the city I am in as the number 1 spot for the next outbreak to occur. I've watched the numbers grow this past week and it just exploded here. Most cases are in meat processing plants, but that is of little comfort. Be careful everyone, you can bet I'm going to be careful!!! |

| Well Jesse. This information here may save your life. As well as the rest of you forum members and or your family/friends lives. We were lied to about what works and what don't work for Covid-19 patients. The so called Dr that did the study on Covid-19 being treated with hydroxychloroquine is a freaking EYE Doctor that studies diseases of the eye... Then other reports that's on Lame Steam Media go on to say that hydroxychloroquine causes heart attacks which isn't true. They have been using this medication for decades, even pregnant women with arthritis has used without heart issues or damage to their babies for decades... Fauci is a sell out... Period. New study in Italy states that: 211 people that were undergoing prophylaxis with hydroxychloroquine were exposed to Covid-19 and none were infected." Here are links to the italian research (might have to translate the page to English): Italian Covid-19 Study. Here is the first link: This one posted yesterday. The second link: This one posted three days ago. Political or not, this information could save your lives. Just overlook the propaganda/political words in the articles if it should happen to contain any. |

| So guys. Be safe, read up on those site links above, and if it comes down to it; if you think you have it, tell them what drugs you want to use to treat it. It's your body, your choice. | ||

| Here's an interesting thought to mull over: Based on today's level of science and knowledge, how many times over the last 250 years would your country (wherever you are) have experienced this kind of shut-down? And would your country be better off today for having done it? |

| umm just to add, you notice the list of papers and reports down the side of the column..each one is a date and name where that report or study was published . To my eyes it appears that all that data was already known and public, as far as I can tell. | ||

| Well from what I can see, it shows nothing honestly. I am guessing you seldom read science papers or understand much how they look or are organized. What you posted is something someone threw together, that appears to take single lines or comments from multiple works and places them in a single outline. What is missing are the terms used to garner those results, what tests and how they were formed....There is no outline of what experiments were performed, etc. They also demonstrate no effort to offer how the results were evaluated, by whom, or for that matter any of the negative results that would appear in any study , regardless how effective any treatment might be. Anyone could take any single result they wished to support and cherry pick single quotes or lines from many studies to attempt to make the case...be it that the earth is flat or that Godzilla really exists. Sadly what is missing is the opposing arguments, commentaries, responses, and their discussions finally. Given as the it is, it does appear quite persuasive, but when you realize how science works, and how its results are shared, the outline you posted loses most of its.....zing. If the news media were to share what you posted, they would likely be destroyed overnight from the response in the science community for offering up what amounts or appears to offer at best a cherry picked attempt to provide a narrative. Perhaps tedsaid could weigh in as well being an accredited scientist with a degree, but that's what I can see from my reading at least. |

| By example here is a link to a rather simple science paper, so you can contrast how they appear... https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rspb.2009.0691 Another more complex paper... https://www.researchgate.net/publication/308156449_3D_Camouflage_in_an_Ornithischian_Dinosaur |

| I never said they should take the exact copy I posted above and release that. I said "this information." As a starting point for self education. The names and dates are listed in each summary that is listed. If you want a more completed summary/science paper, use the information in that link I shared as a starting point for investigation. Example excerpt from the link I provided: 22 August 2005 CDC Special Pathogens Branch MJ VIncet, E.Bergon, S. Benjannet, BR Erickson, Pierre Rollin, T.G. Ksiazek, NG Seidah, ST Nichole. Chloroquine is a potent inhibitor of SARS coronavirus infection and spread. Virology Journal. (2005) 2: 69 Chloroquine has strong antiviral effects on SARS CoV infection of primate cells in tissue culture. These inhibitory effects are observed when cells are treated with the drug either before or after exposure to the virus, suggesting both prophylactic preventative and treatment use. The paper describes three mechanisms by which the drug might work and suggest it may have both a prophylactic and therapeutic role in Coronavirus infections. |

| @Darkseid_of_town I know. But my point is, the MSM isn't telling anyone about it though. Neither is Fauci. I'm just trying to let you guys know in case you or a loved one gets the virus. You all now have a starting point to research and print off copies of the papers to show your doctors so you can get prescriptions if needed for hydroxychloroquine/chloroquine. I just wanted to share that link with you all so you all have a staring point for researching and drawing your own conclusions. Don't you all find it funny that they will prescribe it to patients that's on ventilators but not to people that just come down with the virus? By that time it's too late so of course it looks like it had no effect.... Yet the study states: The HCQ-AZ combination, when started immediately after diagnosis, appears to be a safe and efficient treatment for COVID-19, with a mortality rate of 0.5%, in elderly patients. It avoids worsening and clears virus persistence and contagious infectivity in most cases. |

| Yeah, a lot of those articles are things like people giving their opinion at a conference, or tests of HCQ in a test tube or sample (in vitro) as opposed to a person. Not to say that it doesn't work or might not work, but from a scientific standpoint it needs more thorough testing. Generally speaking, science as it gets released now isn't up for the speed at which things are happening. Trying to conduct a study, analyze it, write up a report, have it reviewed by other experts, and then published somewhere typically takes months to years and even then you'll have mistakes. Scientists trying to get COVID research out while the patients need critical care isn't going to help. There are already COVID papers that have been retracted, meaning there was a problem somewhere in the paper big enough to invalidate its conclusions. Even if they aren't retracted others have enough red flags that other researchers will call it out, like this HCQ one. Again, not to say that it doesn't work. And if I'm on a ventilator trying not to die, I'd be happy to try things. Scientifically that's actually one of the problems; when you're in the middle of the mess and you're trying to keep people alive you're probably going to be using all sorts of stuff and so clean scientific control conditions and comparisons are very hard to get. |

Quote:Originally Posted by GanaSoth The French doctor has been criticized for poor research practices, including deciding who gets the treatment and who gets the placebo. Here is one article in the "MSM" about it. I didn't bother to look for any more, but I will find them if you wish. This document appears to be a series of notes on various research studies, at various stages. FYI, "in vitro" means in glass ... i.e., in test tubes and such, like "in vitro fertilization." So those are early studies in the lab. Then they test in animal models, and then they test in humans, but only for safety ... i.e., does X cause any damage, side effects, is it safe to take? Then they start an actual, small-scale study to test efficacy. And THEN, if all that seems promising, they conduct a larger scale study with both an experimental and a control group. It looks like these are notes on that progression. And now there look to be 1-2 papers that are "pre-print." That means they haven't gone through peer review yet. So there is nothing really to report, except what has happened in the news - particularly in France - where the possibility, and the protests over these drugs, have become the story. When the researchers have something positive to report, they will likely issue press releases, and that is when it will go mainstream. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Darkseid_of_town While I get where you are coming from this would lead us further down bad decision road. This all stems from telling some people that they are not allowed to report to work or to tell some businesses that they must shutter their doors. While a few happy workers are being paid slightly more to stay home than they would have made had they been allowed to continue working, most people getting government money, especially small businesses are getting far less than they would have gotten otherwise. Many small business owners (local comic shops especially) are really feeling the pinch and may never reopen. All of the workers deemed essential are being hailed as heroes in the news, on Facebook, and elsewhere. Many of these workers have gotten raises or earned overtime pay. I will refrain from posting my own opinion but many would say that more government intervention or payouts would do more harm than good. |

Quote:Originally Posted by drchaosmyself personnaly I dont think I know anyone who would have made more working, when you count the wages being compensated for, plus the stimulus gift from the government. Most that I know have profited from it. Aside from that, the small business forgiveable loan program does not determine what wages people are paid, the business takes the loan, pays their payroll and utilities just as if they were still operating. So the majority ARE being paid their full wages, plus the stimulus, and that is just so far in the equation. Meantime they are safe at home, not working, and also not exposed to the virus while the Walmart worker, who is A) making far less, and B) exposed to the potential death factor. "All of the workers deemed essential are being hailed as heroes in the news, on Facebook, and elsewhere. Many of these workers have gotten raises or earned overtime pay" and the simple truth is some aren't, haven't and won't. Meantime we keep burying them, at a frightening rate. More government payouts and intervention might be a bad idea, but we are already crossing that river....so we either abandon the people who got us that far as they carry the burden or continue watching them drown while refusing anything further for them.Meantime everyone else is siting at home safe and being paid to boot.... The other factor I find astonishing here is if someone is not working and is determined to earn a wage...why not go to the local hospital or morgue and take a job with cleaning, disposal of the dead, or dozens of other places more hands might make a difference. Share the risk if you want paid...better yet, cancel their government compensation for sitting on their butts nice and safe, let them share the risk and earn their own wages too...since the essential workers have to...wouldnt that more closely match your suggestion and reduce government roles? |
