Default How C-19 kills

This doctor does a very good job of explaining how this virus works.
(I hope this is appropriate to post here)

If you really want to know how viruses like this kill, read "The Great Influenza" by John Barry about the worldwide 1918 influenza pandemic. This COV-19 thing is barely a speed bump at every level compared to that one.

I really don't know. Someone will decide. The most important thing is that the maximum amount of people get this information.

I loved his “ How long can you hold your breath with your pimp holding your head in the toilet“ analogy.

I am pretty sure if everyone keeps watching the news, reading social media and watching videos about the Wuhan flu there will be a major increase in mental health issues especially depression, drug use, alcoholism and suicide. Turn it off, wash your hands, avoid touching your face and keep your distance from people you don't know. I bet if you could see the daily stats of the seasonal flu, infections and death you would see it is outpacing the new virus by a wide margin. Living in fear is no way to live and we all have a choice to do that or not.

Tood Thank you ! If anyone thinks this should be off topic I disagre ! I am a retired fireman 40yrs EMS this Doctor is spot on on what he is saying an what is happing ! and if what they are saying today where this " virus " can live 17 days on a cruse ship after everyone has departed ? Its not a virus, Its a war germ someone let loose ? If you want stop it YOU can only protect yourslef from it ! and with that GOOD LUCK . My silly dirty bomb jump kit that I put on the engine every day for 9 years isn't so silly anymore when I offer the N95 mask, rubber gloves, ect.. To family and friends. GOD help us . But I can't think of any reason he should !

Take a deep breath and wait two weeks.

I do not know the vast majority of our members who post, but have learned so much over the past years from your advice and comments. I value your lives even though we have never met. Whatever your opinions, I fear that we will loose many of our posting and personal friends.

I hope very much that that I am wrong. April 15th will tell some truth.

Patrick
