How long does it take to work anyways? For people with moderate symptoms, will it make them recover faster?
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

I'm not a doctor, but I have one conjecture. Yes, it's worth it on all costs to give this to people who would otherwise die. But they may be worried to give it to everyone effected. Lets say, R'L, half of US's 330 million people contract the virus and are given the drug, and we later learn that it causes Alzheimer's or cancer ch'v or something of that nature, it could have a much more tragic effect, whereas otherwise most people would've just gotten better.
No one worries about that. It's been used for years and known to be safe.

Do you understand a drug could be safe to treat one condition does not mean it is safe for another condition?

This drug is around for many years... so the side effect stats are already there

This is the reason it was approved so quickly (with limited use) without any studies for corona patients.
Still needs to be determined how people with corona react to it.

Can an American Transit via a Schengen country to connect to a flight to the UK? I have the same question about transiting via Canada.

Where do you see that it was approved?

id love to hear some takes on this

Young and healthy people are flooding the ICUs. They’re also infecting doctors and nurses, older people and unhealthy people. Yes we can tell the elderly to stay away. But it’s not enough. No one is allowed to get sick from any illness right now, due to overwhelmed ICUs. HCPs live at home and have children, and will get infected at a sickening pace due to the lack of foresight. Perhaps they infect the most vulnerable, the elderly and the sick, by the time symptoms show it’s already too late. Welcome to LifeCare in Kirkland WA on a national level.

Over 80k confirmed cases
https://covid19info.live/

Italy, Iran, South Korea all on their way to be China 2.0.

Interesting to look back at this a month later. Italy (322 cases on 2/25) and Iran turned out to be devastating while South Korea (977 cases) is already in a S curve, showing that they effectively have it contained. The difference an effective response can make.

Video going around on Whatsapp of a building being welded shut. Can't confirm veracity, I don't understand Farsi.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I created a site for all financial assistance available during this difficult time. This is for both individuals and businesses (geared primarily to NYC/NYS, but has other stuff as well)

Please share with as many people as possible, so we can help each other out during this crisis!
