Gay hygiene is the reason why they are 1000x more likely to die from a virus than a straight person. #inconvenientfact

‘Social Distancing’ may become a way of life for quite a while.

Trump is often described as a ‘germophobe’. I don’t know that I’ve really believed that; but if so, he may have been ahead of his time.

They probably shoved dozens of touching stories of straight couples aside to get to the gay couple.

According to Trump’s briefing today, I think he said that 1000 people in NY have been on this Rx for two days.

Dramatically fewer deaths in NY today.

Getting the doctor’s call at home on Sunday must have produced high anxiety before hearing “he’s ok/off the ventilator”...

Years ago in this situation the ringing of a phone was enough to make your heart stop. Now we have caller ID to add that extra bit of terror. You don't forget those moments.

It sucks. When my daughter was in the hospital for months (she’s okay now) ...every call I got from a doctor or hospital would send me into a mini-panic.

Got to get the gay angle.

Doesn’t bother me at all. Whatever gets the word out.

I don't agree with the way they play the public and spin the story.

This is the politically correct pandemic. The fact that this young patient is gay is relevant. To understand just who is susceptible to develop serious disease or die from this virus requires a dispassionate evaluation of the data. It is necessary to tabulate the race, age, underlying medical conditions, habits, medications used and vaccination history of those who do or don’t become infected, do or don’t become seriously ill, do or don’t die. The CDC and WHO have the data but for reasons best known by them have not made it public.

Dr: Good news! Your partner was taken off the ventilator. The bad news is, he died from Kaposi Sarcoma.

If that doesn’t qualify as an underlying condition, I don’t know what does.

See if you can get this video to play; it just buffers for me...

https://news.sky.com/story/coronavirus-what-x-rays-and-ct-scans-reveal-about-how-covid-19-kills-11955988

“X-ray images and CT scans of coronavirus patients reveal how their lungs are being ravaged by the virus and filled with a sticky mucus that prevents them from inhaling because there is no space for air.

Medical professionals around the world, from front-line staff to research scientists, are beginning to develop a solid understanding of how the novel coronavirus spreads and affects the body.”

The only way to really know if that stuff works is if the left starts banning it, and so far two Governors are trying so to me, it looks like it is working. The left wants this pandemic to go on as long as it possibly can all the way to the election and beyond if Trump wins, so the last thing they want is a cure.

Oh wow she’s still around? Forgot all about her. I remember she got a death threat from a Jihadi and then gave the Jihadi directions to her house so she could blow his brains out LOL

You guys need to stop this foolishness. Years ago my doctor was showing me a good x-ray of my lungs, but there were nickel sized white spots all over my lungs that he didn't even mention. I asked him what were all of those white spots and he said, "oh that?" Don't worry about it. That is just some scaring from a fungus infection you must have had in the past.

I remembered that fungus infection because I had a devil of a time getting the doctor to treat me. He obviously gave me some broad spectrum antibiotic that killed it in spite of not believing my odd symptoms.

The point is that scaring can heal just as the effects of smoking can heal over time.

After 10 years

After 10 years, a person’s chances of developing lung cancer and dying from it are roughly cut in half compared with someone who continues to smoke. The likelihood of developing mouth, throat, or pancreatic cancer has significantly reduced.

After 15 years

After 15 years of having quit smoking, the likelihood of developing coronary heart disease is the equivalent of a non-smoker. Similarly, the risk of developing pancreatic cancer has reduced to the same level as a non-smoker.

Any scaring will in a few months be next to nothing. I'm not a doctor but I can read.
