I wonder why so many people being exposed to the COVID19 do not fall sick. There is also a mystery with the seasonal allergies to pollen that affects many people but do nothing to others. I believe that many have an antibody from many other vaccines or exposure to elements during life that built up protection in their immune system. Some say that CDS (chlorine dioxide) is effective against the COVID19 virus, the same product used in low concentration in swimming pools, tap water, toothpaste, and others to kill bacteria. Maybe this was the bases for POTUS to suggest the use of it listening to his smart advisors. There is also a theory used by Sweden that the virus is progressively mutating to a weaker strain. This theory seems to be the most credible. The casualties seem not to be much higher in Sweden than Italy or Spain but the economy has not been affected because they did not lock the country up. This is obviously possible because people trust their government, and the maturity of their democracy where corruption is low, respect, and ethics are intrinsic as part of the culture. The theory about vaccines explains why there are different from them for the flu every year. If the virus mutates what was good in the past may not be good for the new strain.
There is a situation that has not been taken into consideration when talking about the importance of protection with masks and hand washing. We have heard that the covid19 is transmitted by droplets with the virus in the saliva thrown by an infected person when breathing and talking. If those droplets stick to the face, lips, nose, and eyes or taken there by touching with contaminated hands, the virus passes to the sinus and throat residing there 4 days before going to the longs. I wonder why there are not treatments for people in quarantine after being exposed to an alleged infected person. If the virus is vulnerable to heat, salt, alcohol, CDS, and perhaps many other safe products it should be advised to have some hot gargle with low-grade alcohol, salty water, water, and baking soda or nasal drops that could stop the virus to progress. Why we do not hear the advice of protection for the eyes as we hear for the mouth and nose if they are also vulnerable? If the virus falls in the eyes and goes down to the through by the lachrymal, wouldn’t the oral treatment work as well? Why not informing that masks need to have special filters because the virus goes through most materials?
The Media instead of suggesting things that are accessible to anyone publishes government decisions of forbidding others that have been developed and show potential.
I read in the NYT that Bill Gates foundation has funded the production of test kits to be distributed to healthy and sick people. The program sought to send test kits to the homes of people both healthy and sick to try to bring the country to the level of testing officials say is necessary before states can begin safely reopening. The program, which had already gone through thousands of tests, found dozens of cases that had been previously undiagnosed was nevertheless rejected by the FDA.
Unquestionably, massive testing is essential to be performed before opening the economy and not having to lock up again due to the resurgence of infection. However, most states have not achieved the amount of 152 per 100,000 people tests, required before reopening the economy with low risk.
Many medical experts believe the numbers of new daily cases of the virus are rising in many places; Governors started lifting these orders, ease restrictions, and slowly restart their economies. Many experts fear that these premature reopening will lead to a second wave of the virus. Already, more than a dozen states across the country have faced lawsuits over their lockdown orders with the excuse of being infringing civil liberties.
Here are the results in Asian Countries besides intensive hand washing and masks usage within two months.
Pandemic up => lock down => stay at home => economy down => employment down => infection in way down => economy up.
Here the results in the US: Courts ruled against lockdown.
Lock down off => economy up => civil liberties up => infection rate up => pandemic back up => unemployment up > economy back down.
Unemployment is 15 percent now and will be higher because the new court’s ruling won't help for the economic recovery in 2020 as a result of incoherent economic measures based on political agendas applied over public health.
It is sad that politic have people making so many mistakes that take away so many lives!
