Some really good info from Johns Hopkins:
* The virus is not a living organism, but a protein molecule (DNA) covered by a protective layer of lipid (fat), which, when absorbed by the cells of the ocular, nasal or buccal mucosa, changes their genetic code. (mutation) and convert them into aggressor and multiplier cells.
* Since the virus is not a living organism but a protein molecule, it is not killed, but decays on its own. The disintegration time depends on the temperature, humidity and type of material where it lies.
* The virus is very fragile; the only thing that protects it is a thin outer layer of fat. That is why any soap or detergent is the best remedy, because the foam CUTS the FAT (that is why you have to rub so much: for 20 seconds or more, to make a lot of foam).
By dissolving the fat layer, the protein molecule disperses and breaks down on its own.
* HEAT melts fat; this is why it is so good to use water above 25 degrees Celsius for washing hands, clothes and everything. In addition, hot water makes more foam and that makes it even more useful.
* Alcohol or any mixture with alcohol over 65% DISSOLVES ANY FAT, especially the external lipid layer of the virus.
* Any mix with 1 part bleach and 5 parts water directly dissolves the protein, breaks it down from the inside.
* Oxygenated water helps long after soap, alcohol and chlorine, because peroxide dissolves the virus protein, but you have to use it pure and it hurts your skin.
* NO BACTERICIDE OR ANTIBIOTIC SERVES. The virus is not a living organism like bacteria; antibodies cannot kill what is not alive.
* NEVER shake used or unused clothing, sheets or cloth. While it is glued to a porous surface, it is very inert and disintegrates only
-between 3 hours (fabric and porous),
-4 hours (copper and wood)
-24 hours (cardboard),
- 42 hours (metal) and
-72 hours (plastic).
But if you shake it or use a feather duster, the virus molecules float in the air for up to 3 hours, and can lodge in your nose.
* The virus molecules remain very stable in external cold, or artificial as air conditioners in houses and cars.
They also need moisture to stay stable, and especially darkness. Therefore, dehumidified, dry, warm and bright environments will degrade it faster.
* UV LIGHT on any object that may contain it breaks down the virus protein. For example, to disinfect and reuse a mask is perfect. Be careful, it also breaks down collagen (which is protein) in the skin.
* The virus CANNOT go through healthy skin.
* Vinegar is NOT useful because it does not break down the protective layer of fat.
* NO SPIRITS, NOR VODKA, serve. The strongest vodka is 40% alcohol, and you need 65%.
* LISTERINE IF IT SERVES! It is 65% alcohol.
* The more confined the space, the more concentration of the virus there can be. The more open or naturally ventilated, the less.
* You have to wash your hands before and after touching mucosa, food, locks, knobs, switches, remote control, cell phone, watches, computers, desks, TV, etc. And when using the bathroom.
* You have to HUMIDIFY HANDS DRY from so much washing them, because the molecules can hide in the micro cracks. The thicker the moisturizer, the better.
* Also keep your NAILS SHORT so that the virus does not hide there.

They better be careful. This country is known to start a civil war over people selling to a foreign country because they're willing to pay more. And that was only cotton. 😅

In all seriousness though. That's fucked up. Such is the ugly side of capitalism I guess.

If the DPA were to be invoked would it stop this shit?

The thing to remember about alcohol: In order to innoculate the virus, the alcohol has to dry off your skin. Touching your face / eyes / nose with alcohol wet hands could transfer virus. So let the hand santizer dry before touching other stuff.
 
Just a quick update on my daughter who was tested positive with the coronavirus....she is in isolation and seems to be a bit better...her symptoms have been...no taste or smell...terrible headaches, but no fever...has bad nausea...hope this helps others....also friends...if you feel symptoms, do not...and I repeat do not trust your hospital....check in with your health department as many of the hospitals are not following guidelines from ODH....stay safe through these times!!!!

Is she taking hydroxychloroquine, if you don't mind my asking? I hope your daughter gets well soon.

Good news. Those are the exact symptoms plus fever that my niece and her boyfriend experienced in Colorado. They were not tested and made a full recovery without treatment.

I have some friends that went skiing in Colorado in late January, came home got sick with all the symptoms. They said it was rough, but they recovered with no treatment.

Well a lot of good yada yada and political yada yada but the fact remains we don't have a NATIONAL PLAN - to fight the covid 19 - we need to have a unified NATIONAL PLAN - many leading doctors calling for a national plan

I haven’t saw one country that seems to have a plan.. Ideas yeah,but a plan no. Way to many Indians and Chiefs.

Take it for what it's worth...

The following is a 2010 document from the 'Rockefeller Foundation' that may prove to be at the very least, interesting.

You can search on the internet for the original source if you'd like, however for ease purposes, I went ahead and shared it on my web link that can be either viewed online and/or downloaded.

Pay close attention to page 18 and beyond - https://view.publitas.com/wildlifeohio/rockefeller-foundation/

F.Y.I. - I posted the 'Event - 201' in case no one was aware of a mock/exercise of a virus pandemic event that occurred as recently as October 2019 that is quite similar to the current crisis.
