The media: (writes headlines creating fear and hysteria)

Braineack: "The media is creating fear and hysteria!"

The media: (writes headlines urging calm)

Braineack: "The media isn't being hysterical enough!"

mischaracterizing.

You missed where this was 100% Trump's personal fault for tweeting the same shit. That he is individually responsible for the virus's creation, spread, and his tweets [ that no liberal would ever listen to anyway ] telling us to stay calm and dont paniac are the reason Americans are dying.

You missed the hypocracy.

You missed most the published dates in the image.

and you missed this reference:

after he was blamed for the virus.

stay calm and dont paniac

Cliffs - much of results show pronounced bias based on red/blue leanings(never guess that from following this thread) but, in total, 19% more people approve of Trump than the media. The Media is the only poll subject with more disapproval than approval.

Shocking, huh?

I'm not sure what socialized medicine has to do with not being able to get grocery deliveries.

An Update on the Coronavirus Treatment
Hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin continue to show results for patients.

...Physicians are using two drugs in combination—hydroxychloroquine and
azithromycin, which I’ll abbreviate HC and AZ—to treat patients with
advanced Covid-19 symptoms.

For HC, two bodies of evidence support its potential in treating Covid-19: in
vitro (test tube) studies and initial clinical reports from the field. After the
2002-03 global outbreak of SARS, a coronavirus related to the one that
causes Covid-19, an in vitro study conducted by doctors from the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention identified chloroquine (a relative of HC) as
an attractive option for prevention and treatment. If added before the virus
was introduced, the drug was highly effective in preventing cellular
infection. Even later application markedly inhibited infection. Another
contemporaneous study showed similar results. As for Covid, a Chinese
study published March 9 showed HC has excellent in vitro effects. Other
recent information suggests potential antiviral mechanisms of HC and
chloroquine.

During the initial Chinese outbreak, Wuhan doctors observed that patients with lupus
—a disease for which HC is a common treatment—did not seem to develop
Covid-19. Of 178 hospital patients who tested positive, none had lupus and
none were on HC. None of this Wuhan hospital’s dermatology department’s
80 lupus patients were infected with the novel coronavirus. The Wuhan
doctors hypothesized that this may be due to long-term use of HC. They
treated 20 Covid-19 patients with HC. Their result: “Clinical symptoms
improve significantly in 1 to 2 days. After five days of chest CT examination,
19 cases showed significant absorption improvement.”

Second, consider AZ—the antibiotic marketed as Z-Pak—combined with HC.
The French study showed that 57% of 14 Covid-19 patients receiving HC
without AZ tested negative for the virus on a nasal swab on day six. But
100% of the six patients who received both HC and AZ tested negative on
day six. Compare that with 16 infected patients at another hospital who
didn’t receive either treatment: only 12% tested negative on day six. These
are small samples, but significant.

The authors of the French study last week published the results of an
additional 80 hospitalized patients receiving a combination of HC and AZ.
By day eight of treatment, 93% showed a negative nasopharyngeal swab for
the virus. “This allowed patients to rapidly be discharged from highly
contagious wards with a mean length of stay of five days,” the authors write.

The World Health Organization lists both HC and AZ as essential medicines,
“considered to be the most effective and safe to meet the most important
needs in a health system.” These drugs have been in use for many years—HC
since 1955 and AZ since 1988.

All drugs have side effects, and HC’s overall record is safe. Yes, this is an “off
label” use. But that isn’t unusual, either. One study showed 21% of U.S.
prescriptions were for off-label use.

Oops, opened okay here.
Italy always provides the best imagery. They somehow thought to remove the SkyNews bug from the footage before making the mistake.

CBS News blames 'editing mistake' after footage from Italian hospital appears in report on New York coronavirus crisis

Inquisitive social media users noticed that CBS This Morning aired footage on Wednesday during a report on Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s response to the coronavirus pandemic that looked to be the same as footage from a recent Sky News report about a hospital in Bergamo, Italy.

The footage of the Italy-based hospital was presented as imagery from a hospital in New York, but the same clip was seen during a Sky Newssegment on Italian hospitals and the COVID-19 virus on March 22.

you can't make this shit up

This is one of the new prescriptions I had to pick up today for my girlfriend, not because she's been diagnosed with COVID-19, but she's having an RA flare up.

Tried two more stores, people are still hoarding shit tickets. Going to hit up my local grocery store chain around 2-3 am and try a few different stores to see if we can find some. I don't really understand this panic buy.

The grocery store chain is open 24/7, so I'm hoping to catch one after a restock.

wtf this is my store as of 12:11 ET (keep in mind this is just an end-cap, the entire regular section is fulled with these as well):

3-ply kitten goodness. you cant make this shit-ticket up!


she on humeria? im on a similar ( but way less scary ) biologic but still going out to the store obviously...

Unfortunately, the FDA and insurance companies are trying to stop off-label prescriptions, which is a big mistake. Innovation and Dr's practicing medicine is much better than every single thing having to go through bureaucratic review.

New law now that makes non-prescription items also prove efficacy. Like the caveats stated are not enough for intelligent people to know snake oil from good stuff.

The Evy sunscreen from Sweden cannot be sold here now, even though they are trying to market it. I had to purchase from England. From the maker:

Hello David, Unfortunately we can’t distribute in USA at the moment. FDA and the USA government have implemented GRASE with only a very small amount of sunfilters... we hope the situation would change quite soon
