    Nobody I talk to at work or anyone else seems to think going and forming crowds is a good idea, and just think the numbers will keep rising. More traffic now. People are still wearing masks, but I live in an area with lots of universities and young professionals who would do that. 

    My GF and i left Somerville in early march. Sorry to hear that the numbers are still going up.

    Thanks. Seen the autopsy thing. Is an interesting view.

    So the gist is that the guy from that other vid thinks he found a way to cure covid-19. He's describing a process to cure the disease, right? 

    Not sure I'd consider that a reason for vaccines not being needed. Or rather, I'm sure that's not the right conclusion to draw from that vid. 

    Not a cure, but maybe a way to take the severity out of the disease.

    I'm not sure either, but a little spark of hope is nice in these times.

    So the summary why we might not have to wait for a vaccine is....

    seriously people, this doesn't need to be difficult. remember einstein? 

    • “If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.”

    edit: not interested in following a course when i'm only interested in the summary.

    Okay, let me try. There are chemical processes in the body that process O2 and the foods we're eating. There are certain conditions and genetic predispositions that can lead to a off balance in that system, so that when it's attack by covid (via ACE2 receptors, which are part of that system) collapses faster and much harder. The collapse leads to a wide range of symptoms but it seems that the most severe is actually a thrombosis in the arteries that connect heart and lungs, that causes a heavy under-saturation of o2 in the blood and blood clots moving through the body damaging organs.

    He now thinks that NAC - N-Acethyl-L-Cystein could help to re-balance that system and also act against the thrombosis because it also has proven to work as a blood thinner in clinical tests. He then goes through a lot of papers to support his theory.

    More about the thrombosis findings is talked about in this video...

    so, in other words, there is no gist. ok thanks O_o

    There kinda is, but he uses like 10 videos to explain the basics so you be half way able to understand what he's talking about. But there is also no solution, just a hypothesis. He also introduces a lot of papers.

    whats the gist of that vid, btw. it started out with those chemistry blabla without a clear conclusion. couldn't be arsed to sit out the technical arguments before coming to the actual conclusion. anyone presenting their conclusions this way, isn't used to communicating science more broadly, imo.

    This is a series for med students. They don't need that. Watch the whole thing if you wanna dig deeper.

    In Europe, a lot of Countries are starting to ease the lockdown measures as new cases decrease.
    Business owners welcome this, they want to make (more) money.
    People seem to be fed up with the lockdown.

    Governments should decide how many (sick, poor, elderly, and innocent) humans (=citizens) are worth the sacrifice.
    What can governments tolerate? What can the people tolerate? What can hyper-capitalists tolerate? It's a triumvirate.

    Smaller second wave incoming in about 1-2 weeks.
    Question is not if it will come, but when and how bad it will be.
    We will be slightly better prepared because most medical equipment is present.

    Immunity against covid-19 is still something we are not sure about.
    Covid-19-waves might be an ongoing thing for the foreseeable future.
    Maybe face-masks, distancing and hand-washing will be permanent.
    Mass-vaccination is still some time away.
    Hope the virus doesn't mutate too hard.

    Let's see how things enfold...

    Could be that we don't need a vaccine.

     

    I have personal reason to believe that he's on the right track. That was the last thing i tried before covid loosened its grip on me. (Just an opinion.)
