Having relatives and friends scattered all over the globe, I am getting an overload of input (some on the record and some off the record).

My intention for this thread is for community members from around the world to post first hand stories and/or links to information sources that, for the most part, should be reliable.

In my community, just outside a major southeastern city, 'assets' have been placed. Only because I have friends in both high and low places have I heard about some of this. At this point it is only some basic medical supplies that should be equally distributed anyway in preparation for a natural emergency (hurricane/wildfire/etc.).

I will start with posting a link to a site with current data that seems to come from an aggregate of sources and hope others will do the same as they come across similar sites/pages.

Because of the 'typhoid Mary' spread-ability of this disease, I feel we may be in for a really large spread globally which will impact the global economy and through extension, retail domain prices.

One thing is for sure...things will get worse before they get better.

The Latest: Canada OKs Pfizer vaccine for ages 12 and older

TORONTO — Canada’s health regulator has authorized Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine for ages 12 and older.

Dr. Supriya Sharma, chief medical adviser at Health Canada, on Wednesday confirmed the approval of the vaccine for ages 12 to 15.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration also is expected to authorize Pfizer’s vaccine for the young by next week, setting up shots for many before the beginning of the next school year.

Preliminary results in late March from a Pfizer study of 2,260 U.S. volunteers ages 12 to 15 indicated there were no cases of COVID-19 among fully vaccinated adolescents compared with 18 among those given dummy shots.

Crap?

I thought you liked Medical Doctors and respect their opinions?

I can privately share them with you if you like :)

Too many troll armies here to post them in this thread....I must have an army of compassion around me, not an army of trolls.

India is hiding its Covid crisis – and the whole world will suffer for it

A few years ago, as Narendra Modi came into power, I worked on an investigative report about India hiding its malaria deaths. In traveling from tribal Odisha to the Indian national health ministry in New Delhi, my colleague and I watched thousands of cases disappear: some malaria deaths, first noted in handwritten local health ledgers, never appeared in central government reports; other malaria deaths were magically transformed into deaths of heart attack or fever. The discrepancy was massive: India reported 561 malaria deaths that year. Experts predicted the actual number was as high as 200,000.

Now, with Covid ravaging the country, desperate Indians have taken to Twitter to ask for oxygen cylinders or beg hospitals for an open bed. The crisis has been exacerbated by the government’s concealment of critical information. Between India’s long history of hiding and undercounting illness deaths and its much more recent history of restraining and suppressing the press, Modi’s administration has made it impossible to find accurate information about the virus’s hold in the country. Blocking that information will only hurt millions within the country. It will also stymie global efforts to stop the Covid-19 pandemic, and new variants of the virus, at India’s border.

New Study Estimates More Than 900,000 People Have Died Of COVID-19 In U.S.

A new study estimates that the number of people who have died of COVID-19 in the U.S. is more than 900,000, a number 57% higher than official figures.

Worldwide, the study's authors say, the COVID-19 death count is nearing 7 million, more than double the reported number of 3.24 million.

The analysis comes from researchers at the University of Washington's Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, who looked at excess mortality from March 2020 through May 3, 2021, compared it with what would be expected in a typical nonpandemic year, then adjusted those figures to account for a handful of other pandemic-related factors.

COVID-19 may not have appeared first in China, suggests new genomic study

The severe acute respiratory syndrome COVID-19 was discovered on December 31, 2019 in China. Subsequently, many COVID-19 cases were reported in many other countries. However, some positive COVID-19 samples had been reported earlier than those officially accepted by health authorities in other countries, such as France and Italy. Thus, it is of great importance to determine the place where SARS-CoV-2 was first transmitted to humans.

"Based on the results, we conclude that before the outbreak at Wuhan, China, SARS-CoV-2 most likely has already existed in other countries such as France, India, Netherland, England and United States.”

I live in reality. I'm not in the Covid propaganda cult.

Your signature "Remember: DO NOT EVER FEED A TROLL...use the ignore button if it becomes disruptive. Trolls I currently ignore: 3" definitely has me giggling out load this morning.

I don't feed trolls I share vital info anchored in truth, science and facts.

Indians Run for the Exits, Taking COVID Risks With Them

As India logs another 400,000 new infections in a 24-hour period, efforts
to contain the worsening crisis have failed and now everyone from middle- class Indians to migrant workers are getting out as fast as they can.

Private jets, often used primarily by Bollywood glitterati and business moguls who left weeks ago, are now being booked by the middle class who are spending their live savings to save their lives.

But it is those without a life savings to spend who are spreading the deadly virus to neighboring countries. Thousands of migrant workers escaping the country have now turned neighboring Nepal into the next hell.

What about Flu? What happened to the "annual" 291,000 to 646,000 who passed from Flu every other year?

per the CDC: (https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2017/p1213-flu-death-estimate.html)

"According to new estimates published today, between 291,000 and 646,000 people worldwide die from seasonal influenza-related respiratory illnesses each year, higher than a previous estimate of 250,000 to 500,000 and based on a robust, multinational survey.) **this is their 2017 report.

I honestly had no idea, until just now, that 2018 - 2019 the US was in in a similar situation due to influenza. Check out the the quote from the report below & link to the full report - it breaks out by region & countries as well/.


This is interesting, the WHO 2018-2019 report on Flu (file:///D:/WINDOWS%20PROGRAM%20FILES/WER9432-en-fr.pdf) link to report download.


"In the USA, mortality associated with pneumonia and influenza at all ages exceeded the epidemic threshold for 10 weeks.

The mortality rate peaked at nearly 8% in both late February and mid-March, a lower rate than in the previous 4 seasons. The cumulative number of paediatric deaths associated with influenza (116) was similar to those in previous seasons, except in 2017–2018 (187). The age group 5–11 years had the highest percentage (36%) of influenza-associated paediatric deaths, as in previous seasons. Just over half the children for whom a medical history was available had an underlying medical condition. One third of children who died from influenza (for whom vaccination status was known and who were eligible for vaccination) had received at least one influenza vaccine before the onset of illness.In both Canada and the USA, the WHO Pandemic Severity Assessment method11 was used to compare the transmissibility of ILI during the season with that in previous years"

I can hear Gomer Pyle now....


The CDC for the first time acknowledges that the coronavirus is airborne

  • The CDC acknowledged that the coronavirus is airborne in updated guidance.
  • The new guidance specifies that the coronavirus can be spread through inhalation of respiratory droplets containing the virus.
  • Previously, CDC guidance stated that most infections were transmitted through "close contact, not airborne transmission."

Well that is puzzling? Up until now - they, the CDC, have been saying it was not airborne? Does anyone remember being told dont worry it's not contagious through breathing air with no mask?

Why would they have been recommending masks all along if they had no idea it was airborne? Why would they have issued social distancing recommendations & more importantly masks- if they had no idea (Until Just Today) that it's airborne.

This is the problem - wrapped up: There are too many half truths, PR like messaging rather than medical facts, Censoring of opposing views, TV stars/talking heads, & Politics that are interfering with the medical system, the patient doctor (trust) relationship, & worldwide common sense. When views are punished, ignored & worst of all censored - they open the door for lies, mistrust, & fear to take over.

Everyone needs to disconnect from the media & research actual data available to you on the CDC, WHO, etc.. - see what is going on & understand the data - you dont need a tv news actor to read from a script & tell you what you should know, understand, & make decisions about.

You disconnect first. Wasnt idea of wearing a mask to prevent covid from spreading it further than without. Cause the droplets land on things, less chance of droplets spreading like when you sneeze, when wearing a mask. Yes to many half truths, we dont need a tv actor telling us what we should know. We have people like you and Compassion to do the acting. Pull the plug on your modem now

@MasterOfMyDomains - I am not interested in a hateful attack from you on something you have clearly misread, taken incorrectly, or didnt bother to read completely - then changed/misused my context of & try to pretend you have some intellectual moral ground. I have offered no opinion that I asked you to accept, read or agree with. I try to contribute with information that seems helpful to me. Thats why I always link sources, because I know what I say is my opinion - I dont want to force any opinion on anyone - so I always link my info sources.

I wish you all the best, but please dont use my info out of context & keep your condescending tone to yourself - it makes you seem less intelligent than I am sure you are.
