wishing we were congress |
https://hotair.com/archives/jo...origins-coronavirus/ a representative for the World Health Organization (WHO) told Sky News Thursday that China has refused its requests to participate in that investigation. “We know that some national investigation is happening but at this stage we have not been invited to join,” Dr Gauden Galea said. “WHO is making requests of the health commission and of the authorities,” he said. “The origins of virus are very important, the animal-human interface is extremely important and needs to be studied… Asked by Sky News whether there was a good reason not to include the WHO, Dr Galea replied: “From our point of view, no.” One thing that might help rule out the accidental lab release theory is an examination of records from the lab, but Dr. Galea says China hasn’t allowed access to that information: Dr Galea also told Sky News that the WHO had not been able to investigate logs from the two laboratories working with viruses in Wuhan, the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the Wuhan CDC. “From all available evidence, WHO colleagues in our three-level system are convinced that the origins are in Wuhan and that it is a naturally occurring, not a manufactured, virus,” he said. Nevertheless, according to Dr Galea, the laboratory logs “would need to be part of any full report, any full look at the story of the origins”. China hesitated on saying the virus was transmitting person-to-person, WHO doctors went to China where doctors treating infected patients immediately volunteered that virus had spread to health care workers. The day of that visit was the day China’s government finally acknowledged human-to-human transmission. | |||

Good overview, if a little dramatic to my mind:

Does anyone remember the 'zombie' coronavirus cases in South Korea, where previously infected patients who had come through wound up testing 'positive' for coronavirus again later? Turns out it was just an equipment malfunction.

Of course Whitmer would go to Flint to host her "town hall" presser. The water crisis fiasco in Flint sunk Snyder. Flints population is right up her free stuff for everybody alley. End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

Well, Georgia’s pseudo-stay at home order expired last night at midnight and there was a lot more traffic on the roads today. According to some, Georgian’s are gonna start dropping out like flies. ——————————————— The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Psalm 14:1 | |||

I'm going to throw this out here. I think the Karens sheltering inside are in for a shock. For 15 years I traveled to Japan/Korea/Taiwan for business every two months. In that 15 years I never really had a cold. I would get an occasional mini-cold; tickling throat in the morning, a couple sneezes at lunch, runny nose in the afternoon, gone the next day. FWIW, my wife worked at the ear, nose, and throat clinic at a major medical school and didn't catch a cold during that same period, either. Once I stopped the travel, 6 months later I came down with a nasty cold, and would get one every 6 months until I started traveling again. The viruses are continuing to mutate, but our immune systems are falling further an further behind the mutations. Expect a NASTY summer cold going around. Hopefully you've already been exposed to COVID. | |||

Well, Governor Mills has been hitting the Kool Aid again. Most stores have started turning away customers that aren't wearing masks. If I MUST shop at one of those stores, I WILL be wearing this as well: Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

I see lots of talk about Michigan, but did ya'll see the story out of California? One of their counties (Modoc) is giving Newsom a big middle finger and re-opened today. One of the news stations had one of the county commissioners on for an interview last night and all I could do was smile. https://news.yahoo.com/no-coro...ounty-165302692.html | |||

Interesting hearing Astrazeneca is producing tens of thousands of vaccine doses for a few dollars each. I hope in turns out to be as an effective vaccine and they must think it is. Sounds like they are testing it now. "Practice like you want to play in the game" | |||

Damn Cuomo is treating the whole state like NYC. Here in WNY we have less than 40 cases in the county, last count only 3 deaths and 4 cases still infected, all others have recovered. Still his law makes us wear face coverings, even though the CDC says healthy people should not! We are not NYC here!!! Tomorrow I say enough, I'm going out without face covering, arrest me if you want, but enough is enough! _________________________________________________ "Once abolish the God, and the Government becomes the God." --- G.K.

Same thing in Pennsylvania. I live in Cambria County (rural western part of state) and we're being treated like Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. | |||

https://www.wdrb.com/in-depth/...cvpnz9VzgXPp--i5oxMI Indiana is opening back up staring on Monday-May 4 and expects to be back to full operations by July 4. Meanwhile, across the river in Louisville, we are still on lockdown until at least June 1. Hoosiers should be grateful that the Ohio River is saving them from DemoCrap stupidity. --------------------- LGBFJB "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on, or by imbeciles who really mean it." — Mark Twain “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.” — H.

Johnson and Johnson is working on building manufacturing capacity before human trials even start and their plan is to have 600-800 million doses ready by the time their vaccine is (they hope) approved in early 2021. https://nypost.com/2020/04/15/...cines-by-early-2021/ If it works out, that will be great news - the big risk to J&J is the possibility their vaccine candidate doesn't work out and they end up sitting on hundreds of millions of vials of literal trash they paid a lot of money to produce and now have to dispose of. | |||
