    Responding to MCs link- For what it is worth, Rex’s link would explain that if his link is in fact true. The TLDR version is that we are fighting it wrong. It doesn’t attack the lungs but prevents oxygen from being transported around the body. The Lungs are just typically one of the first casualties we see. Ventilators are prolonging life because we are giving them more oxygen but that’s not fighting it. We have maleria drugs that if taken early enough should actually fight the virus... basically

    That article i posted, along with pretty much everything regarding this virus currently, should be taken more as theroy until we have more evidence, but i did find it very interesting. I also found the source material. But thats a little above my my grade. 



    Essentially what its saying, is that Covid-19 is stripping the Iron from our red blood cells. This causes the cells to be unable to transport oxygen to the organs. This also creates an excess of Iron in our body, which is a bad thing when its not attached to our blood cells. 

    The lungs have three different ways of filtering the iron out of the blood stream, but because there is so much of it, the body is being overwhelmed. Thats possibly why we are seeing people  deal with chest inflammation. 

    Also explains why we are seeing people develop pneumonia in both lungs at identical rates, which apparently never happens with normal pneumonia. 

    Also this may be why our typical treatment for ARDS may not be as successful as when its used on people with ARDS. Symptoms are the same, but Covid-19 appears to be doing different things to the body. 

    Again, that article isnt totally politically correct, but it does look to be backed by some evidence.

    but it was posted more for discussion purposes, than to be taken as absolute fact. I think we have a lot to learn about this thing.

    But on this point...what i posted is Stating that we need to administer it he drugs that work before things get to the point of people needing vents because those vents arent really working, and could be causing some damage.

    Yup. Agree with all your posts today. Nice write ups. And I agree that article might be wrong but it sure was a refreshing read and I liked how it addresses so many questions. I especially liked the pneumonia parts.

    Some old fucking customer wanted something so I told him I’d order it and call him if it came in tomorrow and he was like “ahhhhh you don’t gotta call me I’m in here everyday” kill yourself.

    Soooo half my branch is taking FMLA leave because they have kids which I'm not upset about because what the fuck are you gonna do.

    But this stupid broad who is a teller also took FMLA leave because she is scared of getting the Coronavirus 🙄 for reference, this bitch has been trying to pull this shit since late February and at one point said she thinks she has it (she doesn't)

    I dont understand why my company is giving her the paid FMLA leave because she sure as fuck doesn't qualify for it. So now I'm stuck being a teller bitch instead of doing loans which is what i normally do because this bitch is a lazy fuck

    You guys are geographically a lot easier to contain because it’s an island the size of a state. Plus you’re used to going around doing what people tell ya like a good little imperial colony. You don’t have freedom boners in NZ.

    Also, not every country is reporting the numbers the same way. Here anyone who dies with it is considered a corona death regardless of their other conditions (cancer + corona=corona death) and other places might not be counting those who die with it but had other shit that was gonna get them. (Cancer +corona=cancer death)
    Pass the god damn butter.

    Somebody said something about coughing in the office with the AC blowing and now they are building wood walls and splitting the office into corona cubes.
