something is going on in china......either they have cure that is not official or thousands are dying a day.......how is italy losing hundreds(627 today) but the most deaths china had in one day of 150 was weeks ago?......i'm not buying it
i get the point someone made about mass graves would be hard to hide....iran was seen doing that recently.........if any country can make 10 million bodies disappear in middle of night, i'd bet china would have a way

Are you saying you don't trust the Chinese government? Is it because of their past?

A Dutch scientist has created hydroxychloroquine in aerosol form and will be available in the coming weeks. It will instantly reach the lungs, faster alternative to orals.

It's not necessarily the coronavirus, could just be a random bronchitis or something. It does feel very similar to my 2 previous experiences with pneumonia. I felt quite alright both times but I remember having the same distinct dull pain in my mid-upper back that felt like it was radiating from inside my chest. I didn't have a fever during either of those 2 pneumonia cases though. It's mainly the fever that worries me as I rarely ever get it. Honestly don't even remember the last time I had a fever.
I'm taking all the necessary precautions but I'm optimistic this could be just a standard ailment.

For anyone that has kids at home, but no means for home internet, or means to continue paying for internet, there are some companies offering free internet for the time being. Might worth a look ....

Prob more risky to move them out somewhere else when they can just bring in trained staff from elsewhere to come take care of them. Think broad...

i don't see how a country where this started, with a population of 1.4 billion has less deaths than Italy with population of 60 million......yes i know they have tons of masks in their homes for many years now.....yes i know they are not as social of a country as most countries.......yes i know they claim that they are back to work but still practicing social distancing(which we will have to do for 12 months)..... ..i also know they have cities with millions of people.....they have govt that restricts their freedoms so much, they live in fear.........
no way they have less deaths than Italy......is it millions? god i hope not......
i recall they recently kicked out american reporters out the country? whats going on in china!!!!

Sharp increase in Moscow pneumonia cases fuels fears over coronavirus statistics
MOSCOW (Reuters) - A reported sharp increase in pneumonia cases in the Russian capital and contradictory information around the issue is fuelling fears about the accuracy of official coronavirus data which remains much lower than many European countries.
Russia, which has a population of 144 million, has reported just 199 coronavirus cases and some doctors have questioned how far the official data reflects reality, given what they say is the patchy nature and quality of testing.
A sharp spike in pneumonia cases in Moscow, Russia’s biggest transport hub and a city with a population of around 13 million, has further raised doubts.
“I have a feeling they (the authorities) are lying to us,” said Anastasia Vasilyeva, head of Russia’s Doctor’s Alliance trade union.
