... and if you really don't know any more what to believe then of course there's still that stable genius who really knows, at least on the 11th of February. "TRUMP CLAIMS CORONAVIRUS WILL “MIRACULOUSLY” GO AWAY BY APRIL ... “The virus that we’re talking about having to do, a lot of people think that goes away in April, with the heat, as the heat comes in, typically that will go away in April,” ..." www.vanityfair.com/news/2020/02/donald-trump-coronavirus-warm-weatherWritten from a warm climate, uncle 'would i be so lucky' rubl

I saw this on the Beeb yesterday but at the time I was too busy to post on here. www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-51722686Are these idiots completely brainless? If they suspect that the victim had the virus, what steps should they have taken? a/. Get really up close, so that you are practically in their space then try hitting the victim in the hope that you can get some of their body fluids (blood) on yourself. The key here is to get so close and punch the virus back into the victim's body, That'll work.b/. Realize that close contact with a possible infected person would be a very bad move, so keep well away from that person.If there were a God I would probably believe that the virus was sent by the Lord to cull the deadwood, such as the 4 pathetic thugs in the article.

Doctors in Australia are now saying you will get it. It can't be contained. Maybe next week, maybe in 3 years.
I agree with these Australian doctors, eventually we will all get the bug.
I was reading an article on the BBC News website last week which suggests that once the Antivirus (vaccine) has been discovered we will have to wait for it to be fully tested on animals, then human trials will begin and if the vaccine works and poses no threats to humans we will then have to wait for the approval to go through. After that the vaccine will have to be manufactured and distributed worldwide.
In short the article states that in the best case scenario, if they found the vaccine today, it would not be available until around the end of 2021.
If you look at how fast this virus has spread so far, even with all of the quarantines that took place, in the next 18 months we will all have had the virus, it will become impossible to escape from it.
A vaccine that quick could be optimistic. There is a drug for diabetics in human trials for 2 years now that may totally reverse kidney damage. It could be at least another 3 years.

With TRump the truth about the Corona virus is a moving target. Moving from 'there's nothing to worry about, it's like a flu', 'VC Pence is in control', 'it's a Democrat hoax', 'I'm on top of it', 'It's Obama's fault' and now the WHO figures seem false to him. Interesting though the suggestion that 'lots of people have this and it's mild'. dearDonaldTrump simply can't help himself, he'll lying as usual, obfuscating, blaming others. Most surprisingly is that some people still believe him "Trump has a 'hunch' WHO report of 3.4% coronavirus death rate is false On Hannity Wednesday night, President Trump discounted the new report from the World Health Organization saying the global mortality rate of the coronavirus has jumped to 3.4%. Trump’s reason for doing so is that we don’t actually know how many people have it. “Well, I think the 3.4% is really a false number,” Trump said. “Now, this is just my hunch, but based on a lot of conversations with a lot of people that do this, because a lot of people will have this and it’s very mild. They’ll get better very rapidly. They don’t even see a doctor. They don’t even call a doctor. You never hear about those people.”" www.yahoo.com/entertainment/trump-has-a-hunch-who-report-of-coronavirus-death-rate-is-false-082202592.html

Not that I think people here would do such thing, but "Tito's Begs People Not to Make Hand Sanitizer With Its Vodka From no-sew curtains to reed diffusers, DIYs can be great tools for interior design. For health purposes? Not so much. As the novel coronavirus continues to spread, the demand for hand sanitizer is emptying shelves. So, some people have taken to creating their own. And while we admire the ingenuity, one popular recipe—featuring aloe vera and vodka—is...less than effective. After a recipe featuring Tito's vodka made the rounds on social media this week (admittedly, House Beautiful was among several brands to share it), Tito’s is urging customers not to use its vodka to make homemade hand sanitizer." www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/titos-begs-people-not-hand-222300604.html
