    Ya after watching a guy zoom in and out on a small room of old people being looked at by doctors I am convinced. Sign me up for the hysteria. Of course they show old people CDC said 8 out of 10 deaths from this are old people. No shocker there it is the same with basically every other virus.

    there are very very many reasons why its not like typical viruses or the flu.

    but the reasons that are scariest to me as told to me by people I know in research and the health profession as a whole is that, even in some patients that had moderate symptoms and recovered they are seeing reduced lung function of 20-30% even after they are rid of the Virus and negative. the fear is that this Virus is extra strong at attacking lung cellular function, and it is mutating as fast as hell, and by next season or the season after it will have mutated to come back and finish off what it started with the people that got it this year. We don't know that people are building immunity to it, as we have seen subsets of people that A) can't get rid of virus for 40 days and counting now and B) we have people that have seemingly reacquired the virus after recovering and testing negative. In terms of what experts know on this and what they will need to learn they are on page 20 of War and Peace.

    we will get a vaccine quick. I'm sure of it. We've never had a problem that so many of the most intelligent people were focused on with such fervor ever in the history of the universe.

    BUT seeing as how this vaccine will be literally given to BILLIONS of people the trialing needs to be rigorous and thorough and we just have to let that process play out and that will take about at least a year.

    Imagine a scenario where you develop a vaccine and YAY it works! we tested on a group of people and they are now impervious to getting covid19! let's rush this to a bigger population as fast as we can!

    now we are injecting millions of people daily.

    1 or 2 months down the road or maybe a year or two later. We have people start showing extreme kidney damage or liver failure or any shit... its not reversible and in a very short period of time they will now die.

    We've just taking a pandemic and through the soluation created a situation this is 100x or 1000x or 10000000x worse.

    you can't just blindly inject shit into billions of people's bodies and not know what it does to them 6 months later.


    that subject in the trials will need to be closely tracked and monitored and you can't speed up that time.

    The bigger problem than all of this is what happens when we get a vaccine?

    It will take months and months to deploy to everyone.

    health care providers will get it first....but then what?

    do a draft? certain serial numbers get called every week and you are told what day to report and to where? you obviously can't have lines and first come first serve, or you'll have people camping out for weeks and giving out and catching the virus while they do so.

    some people will have to wait months and months to get their vaccine and people are going to riot.


    rolling it out will be hard.

    right now we can't even get enough ventilators for a much much much much smaller population needed, and those things exist! we know how to make them!

    yet we still are super super slow to even supply those.

    how can America hope to give shots to 300 + million when we can't get thousands of ventilators to people that needed them last week

    its gonna create so much anxiety and fear while people wait.

    imagine the moment when they give the people that get to get vaccinated that day or week ahead. The people that don't get it will get increasingly crazy and angry. Lots of domestic violence and possibly antifa type "warriors" rioting in the streets

    chi, you are one of my favorites here but you aren't going to convince me. I just spent a week at a hospital for work as we have a guy that is on his death bed. I asked every person working there about this and everyone said the same thing. The numbers don't back the hysteria and it won't ever back it. The predictions are so outlandish by what we are seeing. I am not going to fight you on this. Hell maybe all of a sudden people will drop like flies and then I will finally be running to buy a hazmat suit but I highly doubt it. Good luck on your bets we can't place because everyone freaked out.

    The virus mutating is what truly scares me. That is why we haven't controlled the flu yet.

    If what happening in NYC is a indication of whats to come nationwide we are in trouble. It may be affecting older folks more deadly, but now they are saying 40% of the people in ICU beds are under 40, so thats not promising, its going to overwhelm the health care system. JMO, but there will be no sports in 2020, short of a miracle, jmo

    who is saying this? you? Like most just saying shit that someone said and repeating the bullshit? Is any reputable place actually reporting this? If they are I haven't seen it. I guess the CDC must have missed this as well.

    You don't know what long term results are on lung function. 20% 30% less lung function now. Okay, what about in 5 months? Who's to say you won't be 100%?

    Nobody knows, that's what's scary.

    Anyone have a good resource for how one can prepare their body? Is it just exercise, eat right, sleep and remain as calm as possible?

    I have lost 30% lung function due to having had 3 lung surgeries since 2016, it only affects my breathing in extreme physical conditions. Stage 4 metastatic kidney cancer, I was given a 15% chance to live 5 years in 2011 and Im now going on 10 years, and will find out this Monday when I have my cancer scans to see if Im still cancer free. Hang in there people we can get through this,jmo

    because your own body's immune response coupled with the damage that the virus does on a cellular level in your lungs has been creating a known condition called Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. This is something that we already know about and we know the outcomes. A number of different things can cause it, like inhaling dangerous toxic chemicals, an accident that causes extreme injury to your thorax and lungs, overdosing on certain classes of drugs, having bad pnemonia for awhile ect.

    so we are now seeing Corona patients develop ARDS.- the diminished lung capacity that I mentioned

    So with the body almost no damage is permanent on cellular levels. Our Bodies are amazing self correcting and healing machines if you take away the cause of damage and give it time and what it needs to repair. (unless its done to cardiac or brain/nervous tissue and some other exceptions) So you are right, they could get better just not in 5 months. its more like 10-15 years with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.

    the problem is that the population that gets this generally will not have 10-15 years to build back to they are just going to be facing seasons an seasons of respiratory illness with a diminished lung capacity.
