Cell receptors found in the nose,lungs and gut could be the reason why being overweight or a man makes you more at risk of catching coronavirus

Funny that you posted this; I started researching this very thing late last night. I’m not done yet. But...

Children have FEWER ACE2 receptors than adults (7th paragraph) https://www.lsuhsc.edu/newsroom/ACE%20Inhibitors%20and%20Angiotensin%20Receptor%20Blockers%20May%20Increase%20the%20Risk%20of%20Severe%20COVID-19.html

And it also appears that it’s not the fact that ppl are obese, diabetic, have hypertension, or a racial minority alone, alone that makes them susceptible to Covid-19, sure sounds like the common medicines that are prescribed for them are ACE2 culprits: https://www.drugs.com/drug-class/angiotensin-converting-enzyme-inhibitors.html

Finally, if you end up getting it, the inflammation resulting from your immune system fighting it seems like the thing that kills ppl. Q’s 4 & 5: https://www.cleveland.com/news/2020/03/ace2-how-researchers-think-coronavirus-attacks-cells-and-how-it-could-be-stopped.html This inflammation is called a “cytokine storm” and there are many videos on YT about it. Ventilators make inflammation worse, which is why you’re a goner if they put you on one.

The vitamins associated with preventing much of this are 2,000 day Vit C, 4-5000 IU Vit D, and 30 mg zinc (prevents cell replication)

There’s a good twitter feed aggregating covid-19 reports:

But I’m still looking for more info.

medcram has a new video about lung autopsy...pretty much shows Medcram has been right on the ball

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlUFibXtDxQ

brings up NAC

[RummyChick]

I cant remember all the technical aspects so maybe someone can provide them and the article that discussed it.....but basically.....

it is designed to bypass/block one thing your body does to fight disease and lets the cytokine storm part of it run wild

and yes...

it is DESIGNED

not a bat fluke

Starting the first week of January when info from China was scant, I have read many hundreds of SARS-2 and CORONAVIRUS articles. This is by far the best article ever.

[RummyChick]

medcram politely bashing Youtube in the vitamin d video...

they are deleting videos if they dont follow WHO guidelines...

he is politely outraged.

Thanks for posting that link. Very interesting information.

0.3% death rate of the infected. Yes, they keep whipping up the fear.

Testis, not testosterone. ACE2 expression is reasonably mapped out.

ACE2 Tissue Expression.

Losing weight is a good thing. Losing weight while reducing inflammation is even better.

[PA Engineer]

Thanks. One of the better articles written by a journalist on SARS2. Sad on the hit and miss with blood.

Maybe the Chinese re-engineered them to love the fat.

If you wanted to cripple America, that would be the way to do it…..

alright men, back to the jockey shorts and keep it hot in there (I don’t know if that works, but, what else can one say to men afraid their testes might be invaded?)

[neverevergiveup]

Adipose tissue makes a LOT of cytokines. A surprising amount - when stimulated to. This is another potential contributor to Covid deaths - among many. It's all conjecture at this point. All of it.

Testis, not testosterone. ACE2 expression is reasonably mapped out.

Okay. In the battle in the arena of that subject area I am unarmed and defenseless. You can beat me until I am bloody and unconscious. I give up.

I'm going back to politics.

[PA Engineer]

LOL. I just like to share information.

“Paging Black Agnes to the Low T courtesy phone!”

A few days ago, there was an article citing cases showing that men with lower testosterone levels may be more at risk.

Anyway, see the photos in the following. Notice any similarity?
