News Worldwide impact of the novel coronavirus (covid-19)

[Justmehere]

I am reading about the issues with antibody tests in the US. In summary: it's basically a cluster. Some tests coming from China are confusing covid-19 antibodies with those for the common cold. Sigh. And the problems go on and on and on... Prominent scientists have bad news for the White House about coronavirus antibody tests - CNN

Hate to say it but CNN or Fox are not the best places to get your news. Most all are polarized to one political party or the other.

Here are some trials going on in the world.

Well, the jury is still out on that.
Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine: Heart risk concerns mount around use for Covid-19 treatment - CNN

So there are factors that CCP hasn't released, so every facet is complicated by that. This is a comment from a whistle blower Chinese Doctor.

“A few people recovered from the first time by their own immune system, but the meds they use are damaging their heart tissue, and when they get it the second time, the antibody doesn’t help but makes it worse, and they die a sudden death from heart failure,” the doctor said.

He also said that it's not 14 days incubation but 28 challenging what is standard at this time. So that could change the whole game plan.

There are so many moving parts.

Michigan will be in your news feed tomorrow. These whackadoos are gonna protest at the Capital.

Unemployment benefits and stimulus payments are coming through now. I received my stimulus on Friday and my unemployment should start this week.

I went out on Saturday to restock some things. So glad I have little shops near me. Less people and more choices.

I hope you all are safe and healthy!

Folks really don't understand, do they? It's most concerning.

Here are the Italian medicos who are begging the world to take notice of what they are living with right now. Special Report: Coronavirus - Into The Red Zone

At 3.50 he talks about PPEs. At 4.17 he is told not to touch anything. 8.51 the Italian medicos beg the rest of the world to look at what is happening to them & lock their countries down now.

I hope that gives you some relief. There are so many in such difficult positions at this time.

That's great that you have that choice.

Woolworths and Coles haven't started to deliver in our local area yet, to average people, but because of an pre existing condition I got on the Priority Assist, but we found some other places that deliver to our gate.

I hope you all are safe and healthy!

I hope everyone else is safe and healthy as well.

Why do they not have therapist's or mental health counselors in there for the doctors and nurses to talk to? Jesus Christ! This is how we get PTSD! Seeing that much death and not having a way to process it in the moment. Yeah! I hope someone higher up in the hospital sees this video and sees the value of having a therapist or two or three in there for those health care workers to talk to. They do that for cops that had a traumtizing experience. At least, I believe they do. Why not this?

. I received my stimulus on Friday

I just got mine this morning.

I didn't watch the video, but Nhs has set up mental health workers for medical/nursing staff for the covid stuff. We have helplines, and telehealth appointments and R+R drop in hubs in the hospitals, not used any of them so dunno if they're any good. I imagine if the UK has done it other places won't be much behind because we are usually the ones behind :P

She said, in the video, that she had no one to talk to. Then started to name her family off one by one. Its apparent that, at least this nurse in NY, has no therapist or counselor there.

I hope they see the need for them soon!

I haven't watched the video, but I think I heard part of an interview with her on NPR last night. If not this woman, it was another traumatized nurse who had posted a video.

Is there any part of what they are experiencing that we didn't already know was going on? With all of the deaths, coming one after another, 7-800 every day in NY, doesn't the gen pop already at least suspect that there are people dealing with that on a personal, lift the weight of the body level?

I feel for this nurse and I don't criticize anyone for watching or sharing her video, but my god, is this what it takes to get people to understand what is happening to our medical people? There are a lot of folks doing their job, being exposed to traumatic surroundings, with little or no escape. We all know where that goes........

Support a nurse or a doctor or an EMT when you get the chance. This is their wartime.

welcome to the world of the first responder. :( Its only been in the last few years that there has been recognition that first responders (including med staff) can even get ptsd. So the idea of on site therapy help? Ya - way down at the bottom of the list. Hopefully we will wake up to what it is costing those people to save lives.
