    The peak comes well before active case linear charts show a decline and well before new case linear charts show a flattened shape. ----Well before---.

    You said "we are now on the downside of the crisis" in Spain, and saying Spain has peaked. If the peak comes well before active cases show a decline, how is it you are so sure Spain has peaked? Please enlighten us with your wisdom.

    I really, really hope this is the "cure" - but I'm wondering how many doctors are actually doing this? Anyone have some stats?

    Plasma from recovered victims being infused into sick patients, is now being implemented worldwide. This treatment's usage continues to grow each day.

    On Tuesday morning, the controversial and experimental coronavirus treatment program being run by a Hasidic doctor who claimed he had kept more than 500 symptomatic patients out of the hospital was shut down.

    Just fucking weird.

    On Monday evening, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo released an executive order that effectively ended pharmacists’ ability to prescribe hydroxychloroquine for use in treating Covid-19, and prohibited any experimental use of the drug outside of state-approved clinical trials. On Tuesday morning, at a press conference, he said that New York hospitals would begin using the drug that day, after Trump had encouraged him to try hydroxychloroquine on patients already admitted to hospitals

    What I think is becoming more and more apparent to right-thinking folks is that The Left is intent on trying to block The Administration from having any success. The Left is acting in a political manner, while The President is acting on the best interests of all Americans, no matter their politics. The Left wants more people to die.

    New Oxford study suggests millions of people may have already built up coronavirus immunity


    A model predicting the progression of the novel coronavirus pandemic produced by researchers at Imperial College London set off alarms across the world and was a major factor in several governments' decisions to lock things down. But a new model from Oxford University is challenging its accuracy, the Financial Times reports.

    The Oxford research suggests the pandemic is in a later stage than previously thought and estimates the virus has already infected at least millions of people worldwide. In the United Kingdom, which the study focuses on, half the population would have already been infected. If accurate, that would mean transmission began around mid-January and the vast majority of cases presented mild or no symptoms.

    The head of the study, professor Sunetra Gupta, an Oxford theoretical epidemiologist, said she still supports the U.K.'s decision to shut down the country to suppress the virus even if her research winds up being proven correct. But she also doesn't appear to be a big fan of the work done by the Imperial College team. "I am surprised that there has been such unqualified acceptance of the Imperial model," she said.
