    Hello everybody

    I'm usually more of a lurker than a poster, but i thought this may well worth
    a change of habit

    Hydroxychloroquine seems to really work guys, Professor Didier Raoult from the well renowed IHU Mediterranée infection :

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Didier_Raoult

    Says it really works, Asian countries are already rolling out the treatments associated with another anti bacterian medecine (Azithromycin)

    the results are spectaculars :75% of patients treated with this combination show a viral charge of 0 after 5-6 days of treatment !

    (video in french, auto subs availables even if they're so so)

    Another more wide study should be available next week, but the infamous Salpetrière Hospital from Paris is starting to roll out the treatment, and Sanofi laboratory says they'll give up millions of doses freely.

    Let's not put our expectation too high too early of course, but this seems to be really really promising

    It seems obvious now that certain 'powers,' including whomever pulls the t-RUMP puppet strings, does not want anything to work, even testing, even insanely simple remediation such as preventing the first shipload of virus that was allowed to kickstart the east coast infections way back in the beginning stages of all this, to just walk off the ship. Every official decision I've seen at every level has been utterly stupid. There are only a few exceptions. These poor decisions can no longer be accepted as lack of preparedness. They are calculated. I could see that at every tuirn, but didn't want to say anything to anyone about my suspicions. The same goes for 911. Within minutes it was obvious to me that the events were not what they were supposed to be. They were calculated and not by those who were offically blamed. Oh, but everyone was so traumatized that it took how many years for dissent to finally win over?

    I'm disgusted with the factions who have co-opted the human enterprise. I've been disgusted with them for decades, having seen the inside workings (non-physical workings) of their hopeless parade of death and destruction.

    Now, I've said it.

    And let me add that I also do not like hearing 'excuse me for bad english' from so many wonderful folks who speak with languages that are every much as useful and many much more expressive, than english. You do not have to appologize for your minor typos, Vince. If I were to use French to post you would not even try to read the mess that I would make of it.

    War was the initiative in the first place, and now it appears that all the bungling has been a calculated prelude to war.

    Maybe I could be excused for this outburst since I just woke up from something going on somewhere that involved what seemed like some chinese aristocrat and common citizens attempting to hide from them (in vain). A gun battle ensued, with the guns belonging not to the commoners, but to you know who. I'm sick and tired of guns. I've been killed so many times with guns that I'd take another tsunami any day (killed twice by those so far).

    Nobody would want to experience what I did on the morning of 911. I opened my eyes from that and a minute later turned on NPR to discover that all of those hands reaching out in darkness for someone, anyone, to take their hand and help them, were in fact real people in real circumstances. You could walk across the sky on the fear. It was that thick and substantial. And today 'they' are walking all over fear so as to substantiate it even more. The goal seems to be to make fear so concrete that you could build a road with it. Metaphorically speaking, that is the end goal. Someone or some thing feeds on fear, or what fear engenders. Those bottom feeders will not stand.

    I see the dehumanisation of China has started, officially, by the US government. That's overture to war. They have taken out a few diplomatically parked indictments and thrown them to the people to whoop and snarl over. If they think that makes China feel productively threatened, they are mad, and dangerous.

    What's lacking from this is a sense that they are doing it in their own good time, more a sense that they are late out of the starting blocks. Not good, not clever, not wise.

    And anyway, going to war with China will not restart the supply chain. Reshoring is not a short or mid term solution.

    Thanks Norman (I hope everything's okay for you and yours where you are.)

    The Coming War on China

    This is related but really more with Norman's material posted here rather than with the virus itself.

    John Pilger's extraordinarily brilliant and informative film The Coming War on China made/released about 3-4 years ago now.

    We've had it in the library for quite a while now too, and it comes very highly recommended by me. If you have, or can muster, an hour and fifty minutes time at some point during any given day then please do consider using that by watching this:

    “If a man does not keep pace with [fall into line with] his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.” - Thoreau

    Quote Posted by Sophocles (here)
    Stefan Molyneux has a very interesting talk with Dr Paul Cottrell.

    Dr Cottrell explains the technicalities of coronavirus, how it’s tweaked with HIV (though not the HIV-virus itself as it’s a retrovirus).

    He shows (with words) how coronavirus may have come to be (in a lab).

    He talks about other receptors in addition to the ACE-2 receptor – he fears the virus will get more virulent in the future using other receptors.

    The whole thing (with its waves) will last for 18 – 20 months; plan well.

    35 different strains of the Wuhan virus today (they’re all ‘from the same family’).

    Could the virus have mutated into a more or less virulant version? Like in Italy and Iran. Could it have been an accident? Or was it put there on purpose? (As a bio-weapon.) By whom?

    He speculates about a coming ‘bio-patriot act’ in the US.

    Some of what he’s saying goes over my head but you should check it out as no matter where you come from (almost) I bet this discussion will be of some interest.

    Quote Stefan Molyneux interviews Dr Paul Cottrell about the looming health, financial and economic effects of the #coronavirus pandemic.
    Coronavirus Update: Dr Paul Cottrell: "Prepare NOW for 18 Months!"

    Here's a summary of the most important points raised by Paul Cottrell. (Everything below is courtesy of Natural News, not me.)

    ~~~

    Covered in this interview with Dr. Cottrell:
    • The accelerating economic collapse and what it means for America.
    • Predictions of possible infections and deaths in America, and why our largely unhealthy population is at higher risk than other populations around the world.
    • Preparedness: Why Americans should be prepared with months of food supplies and 20 months of disruptions across society.
    • The “Bio Patriot Act” and coming forced vaccinations.
    • Dr. Cottrell’s nutrients, vitamins and herbs for protecting against viral infections.
    Quotes from Dr. Paul Cottrell: (selected quotes, cropped for length, emphasis added)

    This is much worse than Lehman.

    The banks were already fragile. Now the VIX is an indicator of what risk is building up in the system.

    I really believe that we are in 1929 or worse. Because 1929 it was about fear, about markets. This is a virus that’s shutting down the economy, and the virus doesn’t care about how much money is pumped in by the Federal Reserve. All it cares about is its host.

    It’s important to understand that the virus is going to burn through the United States, and it’s going to last for 18 to 20 months. This is not a four weeks, three month thing. It’s 20 months.

    But because of the health conditions of North Americans, especially in the United States, we’re unhealthy people. Half the population is unhealthy / geriatric, and this is the problem. This virus takes advantage of that.

    165 million Americans are going to be infected with this virus in 20 months. Most of them will have mild cases. One sixth of the ones that are infected will have severe cases.

    25% of them, which is about 6.9 million people, will die from complications of COVID-19. Because of the health situation, and the geriatric component.

    These diseases they have, they can’t take the viral load. Their system is so compromised, they can’t fight the infection.

    That is the virus part of it, then you can just imagine the shut down of the economy as the deaths are happening.

    The economy is going to be shutting down, and the supply chains are going to be shutting down. And you’re going to have 50% unemployment.

    This is going to be worse than the Great Depression, and worse than Lehman. So you’re going to have deaths and the complete destruction of the economy.

    The “bio patriot act” will be instituted, and it will force de-cashing… they don’t want bills, they want all of the money supply in the banking system. You can’t ever take it out. Never have a bank run.

    Social scoring, forced vaccinations, and if you don’t get your vaccine, you can’t get your money out, you don’t get your job, and you can see the totalitarianism that will take place with this bio patriot act rolling out.

    This virus seems to be carrying the Chinese flag, the CCP flag. That we will see, you can see it now, they’ll first start with socialism and then they’ll go to totalitarianism. It’s almost like Atlas Shrugged…

    We’re starting to see people bugging out. I’m afraid we’re going to lose our country. I’m afraid of losing our civil liberties. I’m afraid of this idea of forced vaccinations.

    I do feel this is an opportunity people are using to roll out severe socialism that will lead to totalitarianism.

    We’re probably going to see… you need food. You need to prepare for food. Four weeks is not enough. We’re probably two months or more is what’s needed. The medical system is not going to be able to take care of you.

    We’re going to have to go to homeopathic remedies, because you’re not going to be able to get the 21st century health care. You need to have, to try to boost up your immune system, the vitamins, the minerals… what I do. I do multivitamins, vitamin C, zinc, C60, DNA Force (PQQ), CoQ10 and iodine and filtered water. No fluoride, nothing. Stay away from the fluoride.

    If I get sick, I worked with some researchers in Europe. Protease inhibitors. If I get sick, and I can’t get to a doctor, I use forskolin, Relora, calendula, licorice root and birch bark. They’re known to be anti-viral, and there is scientific studies that some of the compounds in these kill coronaviruses in vitro.

    And then the cytokine storm that can be created if you get reinfected, it may cause an overreaction of the immune system, so anti-inflammatories like turmeric, rosemary, those compounds will help calm it. You gotta take a lot of it.

    There are means on the homeopathic realm if you can’t get to a doctor. Get this in your home, for your family, just in case you are sick. The colloidal silver realm, or the nano silver realm will also help to boost immune system, and are known to inactivate pathogens.

    So the government, Homeland Security is going to ABL that makes nanosilver, to buy big purchases of nanosilver, and our military uses nanosilver for wound dressing, for on the field. It kills the pathogens and activates the stem cells for healing quicker. Those are some of the things that you can get in your toolbox.

    No war with China is winable under these circumstances. If there is one, the intended outcome is that "the west" signs the surrender papers handed to them by a PRC General.

    That's always been the criminals' Plan B if we didn't fall for sleep-walking into what they wanted.

    What's our Plan B ?

    According to CNN, the California Governor Gavin Newsom orders the state to stay home effective midnight of 3/19.

    California orders its nearly 40 million residents to stay home to prevent the spread of coronavirus

    (CNN)The nation's most populous state is ordering its nearly 40 million residents to stay home to prevent the spread of the deadly coronavirus.

    Nineteen people have died and more than 900 tested positive for coronavirus in California.

    California Gov. Gavin Newsom's order marks the first statewide mandatory restrictions in the United States to help combat the outbreak. It went into effect at midnight Thursday, meaning Californians should not leave home except for essential things such as food, prescriptions, health care and commuting to jobs considered crucial.

    The restrictions will remain in place until further notice and come a day after Newsom warned that more than half the state is projected to be infected by the virus in two months.

    "This is a moment where we need some straight talk," Newsom told reporters. "As individuals and as a community, we need to do more to meet this moment."

    The order will not be enforced by law enforcement, he added.

    "I don't believe the people of California need to be told through law enforcement that it's appropriate just to home-isolate, protect themselves," Newsom said. "We are confident that the people of the state of California will abide by it and do the right thing."

    Essential services will be open

    Under the order, essential services such as groceries, pharmacies, gas stations, farmers markets, food banks, convenience stores and delivery restaurants will remain open. So will banks, local government offices that provide services and law enforcement agencies.

    Nonessential services such as dine-in restaurants, bars, gyms and convention centers will shut down, the governor said.

    Newsom's order follows his request to President Donald Trump to send a US Navy medical ship to provide more health care options for the state.
    "We project that roughly 56% of our state's population -- 25.5 million people -- will be infected with the virus over an eight-week period," he said in a Wednesday letter to Trump asking him to send the USNS Mercy hospital ship to the Port of Los Angeles for use through September 1.

    California has been helping people returning to the US from overseas and needs the San Diego-based ship to help "decompress" its health care system as infection rates skyrocket, Newsom wrote. He warned that infection rates are doubling every four days in some parts of the state.

    Coronavirus tracking models show its spread in California could require the hospitalization of more than 19,000 people beyond the state's current capacity.
    "If we change our behaviors, that inventory will come down; if we meet this moment, we can truly bend the curve to reduce the need to surge -- to have to go out to have to cobble together all those assets together," Newsom said.
    Officials plan to use dorm rooms at state universities to temporarily house coronavirus patients, along with hospitals that will support containment efforts.

    Social distance is still required

    Even with the order, California residents who take part in essential activities will have to maintain a social distance.
    "Go about the essential patterns of life, but do so by socially distancing themselves from others and do so using a common sense," Newsom said. "Home isolation is not my preferred choice, but it is a necessary one. This is not a permanent state; it is a moment in time."

    Before Newsom's announcement, other counties in Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area had issued similar mandates. Officials in other states also are struggling to find ways to combat the fast-moving virus to avoid an influx of patients from overstretching medical facilities.

    In New York, where coronavirus has killed 32 people, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said he has no plans to impose a statewide mandate.

    "My job is to make sure that the state has a coordinated plan and it works everywhere," he said this week. "I don't think shelter-in-place really works."

    CNN's Jon Passantino and Alexandra Meeks contributed to this report.

    Sorry. I meant the possible treatment that both Trump and Canada are talking about now? Hydroxychloroquine
    Thanks for the clarification! No, they're totally different things.

    Hydroxychloroquine and Chloroquine are inexpensive, well-known, well-tested antimalarial drugs that have been around for a long time. (Hydroxychloroquine is a little milder.)

    I have MMS here, but it's quite unpleasant to take. And it seems to work better for some people than others, for unknown reasons. But it often really does work, and occasionally miraculously.

    So personally, while I have other remedies on hand, MMS is my okay-so-this-is-an-emergency last-ditch defense.

    Here's a positive view of what's happening. A hopeful one. Let's try to stay in balance and remember we create our realities. We're powerful and should not relinquish the knowledge of that. Affirming messages here.

    This is page 111. Symmetry. Oneness.

    I can confirm that here in Jersey, Channel Isles, the government have announced that all pubs, bars and restaurants will close from tomorrow. The passenger ferries are not carrying anymore passengers as from the 24th March, and I expect the airlines will follow suite soon there-after. We have a population of around 130,000 on an island 9 miles x 5 miles, very densely populated with not much room to 'get away from it all'. We have 12 confirmed cases on island so far. As from today, anyone, no matter where they have travelled from, must self-isolate for 14 days.

    The local populace has been panic-buying for around 10 days now, the shelves in all of the supermarkets have been stripped bare as soon as produce is put on the shelves. There is NO food security on island, they rely on daily shipments for ALL goods. The local government are woeful. They could've locked this place down weeks ago, testing arrivals at the ports, tracking those testing positive, etc, etc. Instead, as per usual, they wait and see what the UK government do and then follow suite. It is an absolute shambles.

    Remember, during World War II, the UK left these islands to fend for themselves, hence, the islands were the only UK territory to be occupied by the German military.


    Wish us luck, I think we are going to need it.

    ETA: Local news on right now...... All pubs and bars not serving food shutting with immediate effect, 6pm, 20th March, 2020.

    Easyjet grounding all flights to island as from Tuesday. Emergency flights only..... Whatever that means.

    Island opening first ever food bank.

    Wow. This is getting really serious, really quickly.

    Coronavirus' death rate found to be lower than World Health Organization estimates

    The coronavirus’ death rate may be lower than the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated, research suggests.

    With the virus virtually unheard of at the start of the year, experts have been racing to uncover how dangerous it really is and the patients most likely to succumb to complications.

    At the beginning of March, the WHO announced the virus had killed 3.4% of patients worldwide, which other experts called a likely “overestimate”.

    To learn more, scientists from The University of Hong Kong looked at the 48,557 confirmed cases that had arisen as of 29 February in the Chinese city Wuhan, where the outbreak emerged.

    They found the average death rate among patients under 30 was 0.3%, rising to 0.5% for those between 30 and 59, and 2.6% for people aged 60 or above.

    Overall, they calculated the fatality rate to be 1.4%.

    Although “promising”, experts have stressed estimating death rates in the midst of an outbreak is “fraught with difficulties”.

    Just read this on BBC website regarding the above case. Does seem a pretty impossible request when you're homeless!:

    https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europ...f-man-51974140

    A homeless man arrested for allegedly failing to self-isolate after arriving on the Isle of Man amid the coronavirus pandemic will not face prosecution, police have said.

    UPDATE on progress of our machine that was ordered from Luohe, China to Idaho via Fedex:

    Dec 11, 2019 -- Ordered the machine through Alibaba. Alibaba then required additional credit card and personal information which was provided. Alibaba continued to refuse to accept the order after numerous attempts to order.

    Jan 15, 2020 -- We finally gave up on Alibaba since they made it impossible to order the machine through their website. We had to order directly from Luohe Orange Mechanical Equipment Company using one of their PayPal accounts. Machine was ordered on Jan 15th but we were informed that the company had just gone on the Chinese New Year holiday and would be back to send out our order on February 1.

    Feb. 9, 2020 -- We were informed by the factory sales rep that the factory would not be back to work until the 18th of February due to their "special time" [aka, coronavirus outbreak].

    Feb. 23, 2020 -- We were informed that the factory was back to work and they were putting our order together. We were subsequently informed that they did not have our specified electrical plug in stock and that the factory that made those specific plugs was not yet back to work. We then told them to skip the plug and send it out as is (without the plug which is readily available in the US).

    March 5, 2020 -- The factory sent a picture of the machine in a wooden crate ready to be shipped out.

    March 9, 2020 -- The factory informed us that the machine had been sent out and gave us the Fedex tracking number that showed that the machine was in Dongguan, China.

    March 10, 2020 -- Machine in Guangzhou, China.

    March 11, 2020 -- Machine was flown to Honolulu and awaiting customs clearance but Fedex made it very difficult to get information on what forms and information that customs required.

    March 13, 2020 -- Machine had cleared customs "International shipment release--Import". There were no customs duty charged by the US for our imported machine.

    March 14, 2020 -- Fedex tracking stated that our machine would arrive in Idaho on Monday, March 16th. However, the shipment was delayed in Honolulu. At this point Fedex kept changing the tracking data in contradiction to their previous tracking data and apparently the machine arrived in Oakland, CA ~March 15.

    March 19, 2020 -- Fedex tracking still showing the machine is delayed in Oakland, CA, with no delivery date -- "No scheduled delivery date available at this time."

    The air shipment of our machine was originally only supposed to take 6 days. The interruptions and delays in Fedex services are understandable under the circumstances. The problems with Alibaba not accepting payment in December is not understandable (WTF?)

    ZeroHedge's Cov-19 Update today reported the following from Jeffrey Kleintop:

    Is China a leading indicator for the rest of the world as COVID-19 runs its course?
    *FEDEX SAYS CHINA DEMAND HAS REBOUNDED MORE THAN EXPECTED
    *FEDEX SAYS 90-95% OF LARGE CHINESE MANUFACTURERS BACK OPERATING
    *FEDEX SAYS 65-70% OF SMALL BUSINESSES IN CHINA OPERATING AGAIN
    UPDATE: The machine from Luohe, China finally arrived today, March 20, 2020! It was ordered on Jan 15th but the Chinese holiday and virus situation delayed it. The air freight took two weeks instead of six days.

    Italy 627 deaths in one day, but then Germany has an overall total of 67 deaths with many cases. I understand there are different strains out there but the authorities need to have a dialogue with the public about the causes of this.

    Chris Martenson's update for today:


    Chris links to a report on his website about how to survive lockdown in style. (It's actually called The Home Lockdown Survival Guide: Your all-in-one resource for staying healthy, sane & solvent.)
    Btw, it's well worth while skimming through the comments under any of Chris Martenson's videos, especially the latest ones. Personal reports come in from all over the world with first-hand information you'd never see on CNN or the BBC.

    Coronavirus: Police in Ecuador block runway to stop flights from landing



    A video posted on social media appears to show the extreme lengths one city has gone to to stop aircraft arriving in their city during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    The incident happened in the city of Guayaquil in Ecuador on Wednesday (NZ time) after the government had announced increased border restrictions for the country, but had allowed for flights to arrive to take visitors home, or repatriate local citizens.

    Video from the airport was posted on Twitter by Manuel Ramirez ARFF on Thursday morning (NZ time).
    To view the video: https://twitter.com/ArffManuel/statu...960395265?s=20

    Despite the landings being authorised, staff from the local police and transit authorities entered the airport grounds in government vehicles to stop any aircraft from landing.

    The move surprised airport staff, who were expecting the scheduled arrival of two commercial flights, both of which had to divert to other cities.

    Both airport and government officials have distanced themselves from the alleged rouge activity and have said at this stage they expect regular flights to continue.
