---I installed UV lighting in my house. My living room is like a tanning bed. I also mix in a blacklight in the evenings just because it looks cool, and it can't hurt.

---I precribed myself 10 Marlboro Reds and 1/3 of Juul Pod daily.

---I use the Keto diet for healthy fats and proteins. Saturdays are my "cheat day" AKA Coney Crate day.

---Im following Hershal Walkers highly touted 1987 workout regime which utilizes pushups and situps only.

---I take 3x the recommended Emergen-C daily. My immune system is basically roided up.

---No fap except on weekends and holidays.

---Ive been listening to a lot of Tool just to pump me for a potential battle with Covid.

---I take 17 baby aspirin a day.

---Im intermediate fasting, my schedule is 23/1.

---If I want to drink alcohol I mix vodka with Green Tea and creatine. I call it "Crea-Tea"

In doing all of this I know I'm ok. But I still wear a mask just to appease the sheep.  If Covid even thinks about coming for me Ill knock that ***** the eff out.

Stay safe, people!!!!

So you will need this

I have found that about 6 to 7 treatments a day keeps the covid away.

Quote:If you really want more info, I can PM you details, but the treatments are much more effective at combating the effect of the virus than the early treatments.  This is also very evident if you look at the reduction in morbidity and mortality.

Over here we are still able to aggressively trace every contact and that has been invaluable for us in our response. We wouldn't have been able to do that without the lockdown we went into which was the reason for my post that you responded to. I am not a doctor, just someone who is concerned about people I know in the US and how things are developing over there. Though it doesn't help when you have a leader who openly states that the reason for high numbers in the US is that you do to much testing so he has asked people to test less

I will pray for your family members BB.

It is a tender subject when it affects you intimately. I had it, but it didn't affect me like my sister who had it for weeks.

I have O positive blood, guess it doesn't affect you as much when you have this type.

We just need to focus on the deaths. I think this is where everything gets lost.

Need to take care of the older people and the people with other health problems to keep the death rate down.

Don't be a Cuomo is all I say. You don't go and put people with covid in old folk homes man.

From no symptoms at all to symptoms of a cold, the flu, acute bronchitis, pneumonia, acute congestive heart failure, gastroenteritis and the severity is from mild to life threatening. I can’t reliably diagnosis someone wth Covid 19 without testing so I’m highly skeptical of someone self diagnosing themselves with Covid 19 in June when cases are spiking, let alone in January when cases were limited.

(06-30-2020, 04:42 PM)oncemoreuntothejimbreech Wrote: Our response has been less than ideal to say the least. If we had been more aggressive with testing, contract tracing, and isolating cases we might have been able to avoid shutting down the economy. We still need to do a better job. Yesterday I called a patient to let her know she was positive and she was at work despite’s being told to self-isolate at home until she received her results. Now all of her close contacts at work need to be tested and should self isolate which can dramatically affect her employer’s business.

Now we’re currently seeing a spike I cases which is going to put the fall sports seasons in jeopardy. There is so much money for the NFL to lose I wasn’t too concerned about the NFL not having a season, but I’m becoming less optimistic by the month.

I had a trip planned for a medical conference in Montana next month which I didn’t think was going to be cancelled when this pandemic first started. But, I was wrong about that. So I think it is too soon to predict what will happen with the NFL’s season. I’m guardedly optimistic, but less so with each passing month. I have a family trip planned for November which I also think is in jeopardy if things continue on their current course.
