The mayor of NYC is antisemitic for trying to stop Orthodox Jew from meeting and practicing their faith. This is a violation of our first amendment rights and freedom of religion.

On present numbers Chinese bat flu is going to kill more Americans than WW2, and more American jews probably.

new thinking posits that coronavirus is a blood-vessel disease.
https://elemental.medium.com/coronaviru … 4032481ab2

SARS-CoV-2 is thought to enter the body through ACE2 receptors present on the surface of cells that line the respiratory tract in the nose and throat. Once in the lungs, the virus appears to move from the alveoli, the air sacs in the lung, into the blood vessels, which are also rich in ACE2 receptors.

“[The virus] enters the lung, it destroys the lung tissue, and people start coughing. The destruction of the lung tissue breaks open some blood vessels,” Mehra explains. “Then it starts to infect endothelial cell after endothelial cell, creates a local immune response, and inflames the endothelium.”

A respiratory virus infecting blood cells and circulating through the body is virtually unheard of. Influenza viruses like H1N1 are not known to do this, and the original SARS virus, a sister coronavirus to the current infection, did not spread past the lung. Other types of viruses, such as Ebola or Dengue, can damage endothelial cells, but they are very different from viruses that typically infect the lungs.

look on the brightside, now when there's inevitably a second peak in midsummer/early fall, jay and his lot can blame it on *checks notes* antifas and leftist terrorists, and not incompetent leadership and mismanagement. it was the protestors who spread it around!

While there are hundreds of billions of people in the Anti-Fa there are only ten people in the Alt-Right.

Also while there are millions of car crashes every year why does the liberal media pick just one to focus on?

The pictures and the videos and the forensics were all doctored anyway, none of the injuries were real either, its part of the liberal conspiracy.

very damning stuff, this.

England is abandoning lockdown and possibly hope of containing a second wave of covid-19. From 1 June schools will open to children other than those of key workers. Outdoor markets and car showrooms will reopen. In two weeks, it will be the turn of all non-essential retailers. This is meant to be a moment of optimism, a green recovery, centred on the health of people and the planet (doi:10.1136/bmj.m2077, doi:10.1136/bmj.m2076), backed by an effective system of testing and contact tracing and possibly informed by a public inquiry (doi:10.1136/bmj.m2052).

Instead, England arrives here in a state of utter confusion (doi:10.1136/bmj.m1785). The public’s confidence in the official lockdown advice is shaken. The covid-19 response is short on testing, uncertain on contact tracing, and reliant on unreliable apps (doi:10.1136/bmj.m2085). Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland are not following England’s lead. The UK has the second highest number of covid-19 deaths of any nation and, by some calculations, the most deaths per capita.

England’s decisions seem rooted in a desire to restart the economy rather than an overabundance of science (doi:10.1136/bmj.m1847, doi:10.1136/bmj.m2045), an important aim except that it may backfire unless properly timed and with the right systems in place. Easing lockdown requires professional as well as public backing, and the decision on schools is opposed by teaching unions concerned about the lack of a proper system of test, trace and isolate.
the UK and US seem equipped with almost uniquely unsuitable governments for the present crisis. a bunch of utter charlatans.

trump has literally stopped talking to fauci.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of NIAID & member of Coronavirus Task Force, tells me he has not spoken or met with President in 2 weeks & his contact w/Trump has become much less frequent. Their last interaction was May 18, during teleconference with the nation’s governors.
quite seriously un-fucking-believable.

In the case of the US it's at least clear that Trump's presidency is seriously revolting to many.

In the UK, it should be reminded that Brexit is still happening as well and that clock too keeps ticking, alongside the other pressing issues.

We're thinking 2020 is bad but 2021 is going to be worse.

Britain has the government it deserves frankly, they voted five times for Brexit, what can you do.

Hopefully American's will be galvanised to get off their arses and vote for the other guy, whoever he is, whatshisname.

Both governments seem uniquely unsuited to anything but coasting along hoping the status quo doesn't change as they help themselves and their friends to the nations wealth.

Will this be the end of privileged morons running everything? I'm not a communist and communism doesn't deliver but we need something.

COVID is still sending a 1000 souls a day to Sheol. Trending down but let's see how the protest affects things. This means there will be at least 60,000 deaths between now and when school reopens if they in fact do. I am not convinced that they will.

i predicted spikes in july with the relaxing of measures, and now with huge protests it seems sadly inevitable.

even places like south korea which had sterling responses are starting to encounter spiralling clusters, 'silent' spreaders, failures of test-&-trace, etc.

if it's actually a blood-vessel disease rather than a respiratory disease as previously thought, the risks are multiplicand to many groups other than the more conventionally 'at risk'. it explains why we've seen strange symptoms/syndromes in children, and also it explains why dementia homes and places like this have been such killing grounds, with strokes and heart attacks very common.

the picture is not good.

Black people are more susceptible to sickle cell disease due to genetics. I wonder if we will find out that that African genetics is one reason why African Americans got hit so hard.

it's like a plot from a very bad dystopian sci-fi. new plague that spreads around the global system along its trade and communication routes, infecting the global immune system, and wiping out the groups that are both essential to and subservient under the same global system: public service workers, front-line staff, transport workers, etc.

then, at the peak of the pandemic, the white ruling class oppressor of said system murders one of the hardest-hit groups in broad daylight, causing weeks of riots and uprisings.

if you scripted this shit and sent it to the sci-fi channel for a daytime tv drama, they'd turn you down for implausibility. c'mon man, don't you think you're cramming a little too much into this one?

Jay's the kind of guy who would be upset at sharing a space with Honduran refugees in the local public school gym shelter.

It was shit for a long time, then it started to get tolerable again and I resigned myself to regrowing the glowing fabio-esque locks I had when I first joined this forum.  Then lockdown rules loosened enough to allow haircuts and 4 months worth of hopes & dreams were cut down and fell upon the floor.
