The reaction to the wuflu in the land of Uncle Scam is nothing less than batshit nuts.
You can be a carrier, but non-symptomatic.
But you can only be tested with a prescription, and only after showing symptoms of actual illness.
Ergo, the plague cannot be stopped, because the majority of people actually transmitting it cannot be tested.
Plus, we have no clue as to what the actual transmission rates are.
Testing kits should be an emergency priority.
Chump can order Detroit to build ventilators, but cannot order Pharma to produce cheap and quick test kits like they have in China????
I believe here we may have had it. We have not had any normal colds or flu in 25 years. If we get the sniffles we grab the vitamins/salt/garlic and it always goes away with only minor discomfort in a few days.
This time it lasted two weeks, and for a few hours had an ACE inhibitor cough. Never had before from a cold/flu. Wife had 100F temp, for a few hours also.
It went away, but taking no chances. We are now shut-ins.
And there is no way to even get tested!
(Though I am 'high-risk')

I hear you.
My wife is disabled and has a compromised immune system so me going out shopping means I am in the middle of a sea of danger that I could bring home. Fortunately we are in a remote area and only 9 people have tested positive within a 40 miles of us so it is not going to knock on the door and get us, we'd need to bring it home. Of course that means limited stores to shop in so it is concentrated there.
Temps twice a day - 97.7F for a month now
Wipe down groceries with alcohol wipes before bring in the house
Not much else to do but wait it out.

All is well here.
This farking thing might be a Malthusians wet dream.
Have seen some studies done on SARS, parent of the Wuflu.
1. Every attempt at a vaccine, whether killed virus, or assembled - not only failed, but killed or nearly killed the test animals when exposed a *second* time. Worked fone on the first exposure. Similar to the cat FIPS vaccine that was recalled.
This means a wuflu vaccine may not be possible. It has to do with the way the virus stimulates white blood cells and their cytokines.
2. SARS (and WuFlu) use furin cleavage to bind to the ACE2 receptors on cells. HOWEVER cleaving the spike protein has been shown in SARS to also bind to the CD147 receptor, found on everything from blood cells to brain cells, to the reproductive system. Not yet confirmed in wuflu, but it explains alot of the mysterious symptoms found in both SARS and wuflu. Like infecting tissue without ACE2 sites.
3. While CD147 vectored infection does not allow viral replication in red blood cells, in theory it can mess them up. And explain why quinine derivatives work on restoring blood oxygen receptors. Quinine and zinc protect the hemoglobin molecule.
3. CD147 mediated infections can potentially render both sexes *infertile*. Not much research was done on this issue with SARS, but the potential for future depopulation needs to be explored.
4. Key while blood cells express CD147, and with their nuclear enzymes *can* enable viral reproduction, at least in theory. It is unknown at this time if it can produce a persistent AIDS like syndrome, due to the greatly different structures and CD types used. But it is known that white blood cell counts are greatly decreased by the virus. Unclear as to whether it is due to concentration at inflammatory sites, or simple destruction.
5. Studies have shown that the SARS virus can travel up lung nerve axons as far as the medulla, with most in the brain stem. A sudden inflammation there can cause stroke/sudden death.
6. Inflammatory reactions from SARS have been shown to vastly accelerate foam cell formation (viral interleukin 6 and other cytokines). Foam cells,(that eat LDL cholesterol) are the actual material that plaque on arterial walls is composed of. The stuff of heart attacks.
I cannot but believe that this was designed as a weapon from hell.
But it is still too early to conclude that the biochemistry of *how* this booger *can* work will turn out how the booger *does* work. A simple CBC of infected blood should answer alot of questions, but unfortunately alot of MDs these days dont really know how to read one anymore.
You know things are bad these days when you have to explain to an H1B endocrinologist how to read a thyroid test.
