    While it was met with approval by experts and health professionals, the lockdown has already proved catastrophic for India’s millions of migrant and daily wage workers, who earn their salary hundreds or sometimes thousands of miles away from home and live a hand-to-mouth existence.

    I have big issues with experts in last months. It is time for people to make all of them responsible.

    A team of Chinese scientists has reportedly developed a novel way to combat the new coronavirus that causes the Covid-19 disease which has killed over 32,000 people globally. According to Global Times, the new weapon is not a drug or a compound but some nanomaterial. "Chinese scientists have developed a new weapon to combat the #coronavirus," the news portal tweeted on Sunday. "They say they have found a nanomaterial that can absorb and deactivate the virus with 96.5-99.9 per cent efficiency," it added. Nanomaterials are used in a variety of manufacturing processes, products and healthcare including paints, filters, insulation and lubricant additives. In healthcare, Nanozymes are nanomaterials with enzyme-like characteristics.

    Virus just showed that we have countries without any freedom

    Freedom does not consist in any dreamt-of independence from natural laws, but in the knowledge of these laws, and in the possibility this gives of systematically making them work towards definite ends. This holds good in relation both to the laws of external nature and to those which govern the bodily and mental existence of men themselves -- two classes of laws which we can separate from each other at most only in thought but not in reality. Freedom of the will therefore means nothing but the capacity to make decisions with knowledge of the subject.

    Freedom therefore consists in the control over ourselves and over external nature, a control founded on knowledge of natural necessity; it is therefore necessarily a product of historical development. The first men who separated themselves from the animal kingdom were in all essentials as unfree as the animals themselves, but each step forward in the field of culture was a step towards freedom.

    With the seizing of the means of production by society production of commodities is done away with, and, simultaneously, the mastery of the product over the producer. Anarchy in social production is replaced by systematic, definite organization. The struggle for individual existence disappears. Then for the first time man, in a certain sense, is finally marked off from the rest of the animal kingdom, and emerges from mere animal conditions of existence into really human ones. The whole sphere of the conditions of life which environ man, and which have hitherto ruled man, now comes under the dominion and control of man who for the first time becomes the real, conscious lord of nature because he has now become master of his own social organization. The laws of his own social action, hitherto standing face to face with man as laws of nature foreign to, and dominating him, will then be used with full understanding, and so mastered by him. Man's own social organization, hitherto confronting him as a necessity imposed by nature and history, now becomes the result of his own free action. The extraneous objective forces that have hitherto governed history pass under the control of man himself. Only from that time will man himself, with full consciousness, make his own history -- only from that time will the social causes set in movement by him have, in the main and in a constantly growing measure, the results intended by him. It is the humanity's leap from the kingdom of necessity to the kingdom of freedom.

    Frederick Engels

    Freedom of the will therefore means nothing but the capacity to make decisions with knowledge of the subject.

    We absolutely do not see this. We see chaos, panic and lot of scammers just looking how to rip someone.

    Virus showed us that all this years capitalism actually moved us back towards medieval times, all under shiny naked clothes of Apple, Google and other similar shits.

    On Ventilators

    Ford’s partnership with GE Healthcare expects to produce 50,000 simplified ventilators by July 8 to help critically ill coronavirus patients. Ford expects to begin production the week of April 20, and to product 1,500 ventilators in April and 12,000 by the end of May. That’s an extremely fast ramp-up for a complex medical device, however it means that the ventilators will not be available in the quantities needed to help hospitals in hard-hit states like New York that expect to face acute shortages in April.

    Ford will rely on a ventilator design from Airon.

    The Airon ventilator, which operates on air pressure without the need for electricity, currently sells for about $7,000, compared with more complex ventilators which go for $20,000 and up.

    Issue is that "operates on air pressure without the need for electricity" sounds nice only for press guys.

    In reality they did not invent perpetum mobile, so it requires special respiratory air supply that hospitals actually do not have in such amount. And mobile new places just fully lack.

    In reality people need electrical autonomous device with build in oxygen concentrator. But it seems like US manufacturing do not have necessary skills and components already.

    Twitter deleted a tweet by Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani in which he quoted conservative influencer Charlie Kirk - who claimed that hydroxychloroquine "in at least three international tests was found 100% effective in treating the coronavirus."

    Nice corporations, they love you. With their strange predatory love.

    First death in my city today. Number of infected people raise a lot. I think the isolation in home will continue for long time...

    The US, as of Monday afternoon, had conducted about 287 tests per 100,000 people in the US (with huge variations depending on the county, city and state). This compares to 709 per 100,000 in South Korea and 600 per 100,000 in Italy.

    It is very long way to go. So panic will rise, as US is central for overall plans.

    Our local government pushes Mefloquinum as replacement of Hydroxychloroquine.

    Rationale is quite simple, for required dosage good brand Mefloquinum will cost 50-100x compared to Hydroxychloroquine (at local prices). And as top brands know this - they can be part of grand scam scheme where hundreds of billions will vanish on offshores.

    Jleo....""Right now in Canada and the US., many entrances and exits of apartments, condos and public buildings are being sealed to restrict walking traffic flow to one or two entry points.""....link that shows apartments being restricted ? I don't know about canada...it's got a pathetic govt....but show me that's happening in the USa now. In these times you have to offer more than black ink as proof. pssss....really delete that shxt or give us a link ! It's total bullshit !

    @Vitaliy....Sweden has zero lockdown. Hey I love John Reed's Ten Days. It is chaos out there. I saw an interesting treatment on mex facebook. This doctor puts a hairdryer up to his nose and at the same time sprays down his nose with cold water when it gets too hot. Says the heat kills it. I love mexico. On any city bus you can buy every miracle drug invented in the minds of men ! And every time twitter or facebook deletes something...it goes viral on 10 more channels. Last night a good friend died...not of corona thank god, but another friend got corona flying back to canada. Life is.....give it all you've got. It's time that's valuable, not things or money, or credit. Did the Buddha worry about not having a job ? In a strange way, they're setting us free.

    The Shenzhen-based firm BYD, known principally as a car manufacturer, provided a look inside of its new manufacturing facility, as footage released on Friday shows, where it said it quickly built the machinery needed to produce as many as 5 million masks and 300,000 bottles of hand sanitizer per day.

    translated from Czech

    In the interview, Dr. Peková explained that viruses generally consist of RNA strands that tend to mutate, change, merge and alter, especially in those RNA sections that take care of protein production. In this region of RNA, the changes are so dynamic that the influence of nature is natural and mutations from natural cycles are the most common form of mutation. However, each virus and each of its RNAs has something called a “control room”, a control site that controls mutations in the rest of the RNA. This region of RNA at the very beginning of the helix could be compared to any boot sector on the computer disk from which the operating system itself is booting. Basically, this can be thought of as a BIOS interface. And when biologists look at this piece of RNA, they just don’t go together.

    The novel coronavirus RNA control centre looks like somebody who turned it upside down and it still works perfectly. From the biologist’s point of view, it looks as if, figuratively speaking, someone has invaded the headquarters of this RNA control room, turned it all up there, throwing away all the cabinets and drawers in such a way that it is very hard to believe on the one hand, this process originated accidentally in nature, and on the other hand, that this chaotic and accidental process would not kill the virus.Indeed, the RNA control room itself is the main point of controlling the mutation of the rest of the RNA, and in this case it would mean that we should believe that in nature somehow the inserter and the control room of the virus were rewritten to perfection without destroying the virus function. And that’s why Dr. Pekova believes that novel coronavirus could have originated in the lab, because such fundamental changes in the RNA control room of the virus would naturally not have occurred in the case, without destroying the virus.

    In an interview, Dr. Peková explained that the RNA virus functioned in such a clear way that it caused horror at certain places. Her explanation of what had happened in the RNA control room of this virus had crossed the line of separating incomprehensible information from the general public. She explained to the viewers that there had been massive gene changes and transcripts, insertions (deletions), deletions (deletions), and other complex changes in the magnitude of the RNA Sars-Cov-2 control room, if nature had created it chaotically and randomly, the virus would simply perish because it could not have functioned in an orderly manner.

    Covid-19 Derangement Syndrome: A World Gone Mad

    “Prevention and treatment of cytokine storm: It is recommended to use large doses of vitamin C and unfractionated heparin. Large doses of vitamin C are injected intravenously at a dose of 100 to 200 mg / kg per day. The duration of continuous use is to significantly improve the oxygenation index.”

    China must be using it very extensively because in February they shipped 50 tons of it to Hubei Province, the capital city of which is Wuhan. No wonder turned things around so quickly at the epicenter of the outbreak.
