The German Shepherd owned by a Covid-19 patient is in quarantine, along with another dog from the same home. It is ‘very likely’ the two positive canine cases are examples of human-to-animal transmission, says virologist.

In general, as the disease progressed in severity, digestive symptoms became more pronounced. The authors found that those without digestive symptoms were nearly twice as likely to be cured and discharged than patients with digestive symptoms — 60 percent versus 34.3 percent.

For the victims of coronavirus the median time from the first symptoms to hospitalization is 4 days, and the median time to death is 8 days, according to a report by the Italian National Institute of Health.

We’re still early in this epidemic — up to around 10,000 cases in the United States but, so far, unfortunately, that’s a pattern that we’re seeing: lots of young adults.

The test suggest that humans could be infected by the disease simply carried through the air or on a solid surface, even if direct contact with an infected person does not occur. That finding, if accepted, would come in stark contrast to previous media reports that suggested the virus was not easily transmittable outside of direct human contact.

PREVENTION & HOME TREATMENT
“If 60 grams of sodium ascorbate does not reverse the symptoms given over 3 to 4 hours, then 120 grams in 1000 cc or 180 grams in 1500 cc may be administered. When enough ascorbate is given rapidly enough, it will eliminate the symptoms because the symptoms are mediated by free radicals. If enough electrons are made available through massive doses of ascorbate it will eliminate the symptoms including all the inflammation. It is matter of chemistry, not medicine.” Robert F. Cathcart III, M.D.

Back in 1920, a young physician named Ernst Krebs published an account of his experience with Lomatium in the Bulletin of the Nevada State Board of Health. Krebs had been assigned by the Indian Bureau to the Washoe reservation, and he was there when the Spanish flu hit. (The so-called Spanish flu was an avian strain that killed more than 500,000 Americans, and between 20 and 100 million worldwide):
“…Whether a coincidence or not, there was not a single death in the Washoe tribe from influenza or its complications, although Indians living in other parts of the State where the root did not grow died in numbers. A preparation was prepared and employed in a great many cases among the whites, from the mildest to the most virulent types of influenza, and it proved, among other things, that it is the nearest approach we have today to a specific in epidemic influenza and the accompanying pneumonia. Other physicians were induced to give it a trial, with the same results. It is beyond the experimental stage, as its therapeutic action in this direction is established and beyond any doubt. The cases in which it has been used run into the hundreds. There is probably no therapeutic agent so valuable in the treatment of influenzal pneumonia.”

Iodine, the Universal Pathogen Killer. Though iodine kills most pathogens on the skin within 90 seconds, its use as an antibiotic/antiviral/antifungal has been completely ignored by modern medicine.

The compound ergosterol in chaga, along with related agents, shows anti-inflammatory activity. This may account for why chaga is thought of as a life-extending agent in China, as inflammation is part of every chronic, degenerative disease. This may be an excellent time to try chaga, whose nickname “Mushroom of Immortality” appears to be far more than just a clever slogan.

It takes only a few minutes, but cleaning high-traffic surfaces once a day can make a difference in preventing the spread of infection.

Amy Alton ARNP thinks outside the box to construct what might be an option if a long-term event expends your current supplies of face masks and face shields. In this video, she also gives her thoughts on the importance of improvisation; if an epidemic lasts long enough, you’ll have to make your own supplies.

Haitang is a filmaker in Wuhan, China. He’s documented his wife’s fight against the coronavirus. LiTing is a an ER Nurse in Wuhan and like all the other health care workers, she caught the virus. She’s still in hospital about to be released for quarantine, but amazingly, Haitang remained virus free at Ground Zero. In this video Haitang shares his tips for decontamination. He has earlier videos when his wife was still at home and he was caring for her. If you’re caring for someone who has the coronavirus, please take the time to watch his videos and observe the safety measures he uses. He was lucky that people donated PPE.
