Covid 19 - We are all screwed - discuss

[Thin Lizzy]

Imagine if getbig was around during the time of Jonas Salk?  We wouldn't have a polio vaccine and herd immunity would have eliminated the dreaded disease.  Instead, we have the polio vaccine causing millions if not billions of babies to be born with autism.   

So we keep the economy shut down until a vaccine is discovered? How do you know this will ever happen?

We’re still waiting for a vaccine for aids.

When currency is devalued (inflated), the winners are those who get the money first before prices start to rise. In this case, it’s the financial establishment and the political class. A lot of money has also gone to the healthcare establishment. Those are the three main players in this scam.

We can go back-and-forth about how much this was planned, but the reality of a currency devaluation and an economic reset is a fact.

a devaluation is also a de facto default

The aids virus mutates into a thousand strains once someone is infected. That’s why. Covid 19 mutates slowly so a vaccine is probable.

i wasn't aware Covid-19 has taken millions of lives.... 

Okay, I exaggerated.  As of today only a mere 291,000 deaths from COVID-19 have been reported. This is out of 4.2 million infections. This is approximately over the past 4 months. There is no end in sight. Each year, it is estimated that the flu kills between 290,000 to 650,000. Unlike COVID-19 the common flu is not a reportable illness. Hypothetically, if the rest of the year continues as it has up until now, there will be almost twice as many deaths from COVID-19 as from the flu. There are vaccines which help prevent the flu. Currently, there is no vaccine that will prevent COVID-19. I hope one will be available soon.

thats people tested

How do you know that 4 billion people have not already had it and not shown symptoms?

LOL. You got me on that one.

Don't know when and if there will be a vaccine for COVID-19. I am guessing it will be before there's one for HIV which causes AIDS. However, medical science is working on a vaccine to prevent HIV. In the meantime, there is PrEP, (pre-exposure prophylaxis) which can help prevent becoming infected with HIV. No HIV = no AIDS. It is not possible to have AIDS without first having HIV.

Yeah we all better listen to the getbig scientists.
I didn’t cherry pick the article, there are many that talk about Covid 19’s genome tracking.

Doherty institute ( australia ) vaccine study currently being done on 500 NHS workers in the uk, already seen to work in chimps, looks to be commercially available by september to the UK. Downside like many of the vaccines being trailed is that they can't vaccinate over 60s or those with underlying issues, basically the current group that are dying. Those people will have to survive with treatment of which there are many that are currently showing more than promise, they just don't cure death,many of the virus victims are already terminal. The position being considered if the general population is vaccinated, this will stop the spread to the at risk group or at least not exhaust the health systems, basically the vaccine will only deliver what herd immunity would but in a far more controlled manner. Apparently.
But again where states are managing their hospitals and health systems from positions of potential liability and are not using unapproved treatments for fear of liability, this could go on. Absolute madness.

Japan suicides decline as Covid-19 lockdown causes shift in stress factors

April’s 20% drop compared with a year earlier may be the result of delays to start of school year, less commuting and more time with family

This shutdown will make people reexamine their lives.  Most students and workers put way too much stress on themselves.

How and why does one disease become an endemic, but another disease disappears?

Example: why is the flu year around? But we are hoping for COVID19 to go away?

[prowlermaniac]

It’s not going away, that’s the point.  Thus them pushing vaccination as the saving grace.  We went from flatten the curve to we can’t go out without a cure.  Wake up people, this is bullshit and is 100% agenda driven.   Never has the world shut down for anything with a 1% mortality rate, We shouldn’t be doing it now either.

They will probably never even have a vaccine so they can use every "flare up" as an excuse to lock us down.  There is still no vaccine for the flu just a shot to maybe protect you against certain strains.

[joswift]

where as everybody else has it sorted?

 

[Megalodon]

Is anyone here from France? How tight is their lock down? Are there any tourists in areas like Nice?

[Tapeworm]

No, but I've been there and found them to be twats, on the whole. I crushed it plenty elsewhere but I got zero ass in all of France. I hope they onndyuure la maladee absyurd. Bon shance, twatierie!
