from the "boo/hiss" crowd,  these experts dont sound very optimistic when discussing immunity and even the potential for a long term anti virus.

This is a very informative read with a positive outlook,  filled with facts and charts to support their conclusions.  Put together by some very well educated medical professionals.  Long but well worth the read.

Thats worth a boo/hiss....

Not that this article completely dispelled the notion, but I had my doubts about herd immunity and Covid-19. I've also read where this mutates much more slowly than influenza - which is not a bad thing. 

Another whole year of this s hit and I'm going to be an even crankier F'er.

Does that make his math and the rest of the information or line of thinking wrong for certain?  I dont agree with the anti vaccer movement,  but it doesnt mean they are wrong about everything they say does it?

Well read the next one,  that logic says we are near a milestone in reaching herd immunity in much of the US .

Back to the hydroxychloroquine  "debate", 


This "debate", has morphed into a weird anti=vaxxer debate....of which...I'm no part of.





"Our analysis shows that using hydroxychloroquine helped saves lives,” said neurosurgeon Dr. Steven Kalkanis, CEO, Henry Ford Medical Group and Senior Vice President and Chief Academic Officer of Henry Ford Health System. “As doctors and scientists, we look to the data for insight. And the data here is clear that there was benefit to using the drug as a treatment for sick, hospitalized patients.”
