Coronavirus is an umbrella term to describe a family of viruses. SARS-CoV-2 is the technical name for COVID-19. What makes this virus different than other Coronaviruses are the specific symptoms it causes. This includes cytokine storms/inflammation in the lungs, vasculitis, liver damage, and blood clotting.

Your blanket is gonna have to wait, ED won’t stop sending patients and two of my patients are in respiratory distress. There’s lazy in every profession, but don’t think for a second that all healthcare staff are like that.

The mechanism of action is clear: HCQ allows zinc to enter cells and stop virus replication. This has been known. It’s a shame that this drug is so politicized.

I love checking this site, but especially so when there’s a huge and constantly updating news cycle. We’re seriously 2+ days ahead of mainstream outlets on this stuff (the content that they choose to report, that is)

Yes I do. Those who are more vulnerable to COVID always have the option to stay home. The original lockdown was 15 days to slow the spread. It should’ve never gone on this long.

I’m an ICU nurse. I’ve seen patients die from COVID, mostly back in April when there was a surge of critical patients in my area. Thankfully, now the death rate is very low since we know more about treating it in the hospital (look up MATH protocol if you’re interested) and pre-hospital testing is more available. While over 99% live after having COVID, I’ve seen it kill patients. I’m sick of this lockdown too, but don’t pretend the disease hasn’t harmed.

Obama is no longer President. So “was” makes sense here.

Masshole checking in. My wife and I are so sick of these libs. But I’ll tell you, I’ve still seen WAY more Trump signs around my part of the state than Biden signs.
