Back to the markit.....a good read

thebullbear.com

The Federal Reserve Bank, as the issuer of the global reserve currency, and its associated global central banks, have unilaterally granted themselves the power to issue any amount of currency. They have declared the power to buy and sell with literally unlimited artificially-created funds in any market at any time for any reason. They have issued the edict that all bankruptcy, all default and all consequence for any misallocation of resources is illegal and null. Any form of speculation and financial engineering, whether in the past, present or future, has been sanctioned and authorized. Those without access to the spigots of central bank liquidity will receive subsistence levels of Universal Basic Income.

There are no more free markets. There is no capitalism. If there is an actor in the markets which can intervene in any way at any time for any reason in any amount without any process of authorization then there are no markets. There is only pure, centralized, fiat power.

None of this could have been accomplished absent a pervasive atmosphere of fear and a population willingly submitting to lockdown. There are no tanks in the streets, but the first UBI checks are in the mail.

Yes I made them keep my mother on Ampicillin. She had a mild pneumonia was COVID positive but never got to ground glass lung on Chest CT She was 87 with anemia from GI bleed from recent Elliquis start. She was actually off Elliquis at time of COVID due to GI bleed She had restrictive lung disease and was 87 The Ampicillin was given not as experimental drug for COVID but for pneumonia. They could have given her any of multiple antibiotics but why not Ampicillin with the chance it blocked the ORF receptor and prevented the formation of a porphyrin ring which then would prevent the hemoglobin from binding to O2 and CO2. Anyhow she did make it. Your theory did get to the front lines. Have not heard further. Such an easy thing to switch the ABT given for preventing a superimposed bacterial infection to Ampicillin or adding in Ampicillin and paying attention to outcome. No experimental protocol neededNo side effect expected. We may never know but my mothers good response impressed many Thanks for the PM alerting me to your findings and yes when my time comes I will take Ampicillin and Ivermictin I will skip hydroxychloraquine.. By the way I am on my 2 nd 14 day quarantine due to close contact to my father and mother. The first was when my father died and my mother got it My mother left the hospital after 10 days and we took her home but after 4 days realized she needed more rehab than she could get at home. She already had the virus so we put her back in rehab. They tested her and she was still positive. I was put back on quarantine when.she was tested and still positive as I was caring for her during the first quarantine I am begging someone to test me so I can get back to work (on my 5 th day) They refuse as I am Asymptomatic. I have been told to lie and say I have symptoms so I can be tested. I cannot do this as I did work for a couple days in between quarantine. If I lied and said I was symptomatic ,which I wasn’t ,it would mean I was working while symptomatic and this would be unethical. Catch 22

Potential coronavirus drug linked to increased risk of heart arrhythmia

A drug that has been touted as a potential therapy against the coronavirus has been linked to an increased risk of cardiac arrhythmia in COVID-19 patients, researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center found.

“The accumulating evidence is that there are limited data to suggest efficacy and there’s growing evidence that suggests toxicity,” Dr. Howard Gold, infectious disease doctor at BIDMC, said of the drug hydroxychloroquine.

Gold and his colleagues published a study in JAMA Cardiology on Friday that suggests patients who received the anti-malarial drug for COVID-19 were at an increased risk of electrical changes to the heart, which can cause arrhythmias and potentially lead to heart attack, stroke, or death.

“It’s one of the reasons why, if the drug is going to be used at all, which I think it is in question at this point, it should only be used in a clinical trial,” said Gold.

The combination of hydroxychloroquine with the antibiotic azithromycin was linked to even greater health risks compared to hydroxychloroquine alone, the research found.

The study evaluated 90 adults with the coronavirus who were hospitalized at BIDMC between March 1 and April 7 and received at least one day of hydroxychloroquine, which can stay in the body for up to three weeks, according to Gold.

Seven of 37 patients who received the drug alone developed an electrical disturbance in the heart taking a longer-than-normal 500 milliseconds or more to discharge and recharge the lower chambers of the heart during each beat.

Three patients had a change of 60 milliseconds or more, and of the 53 patients who also received azithromycin, 21% had delays of 500 milliseconds or more, and 13% experienced a change of 60 milliseconds or more.

Hydroxychloroquine is commonly used to treat patients with inflammatory autoimmune issues such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. Gold said these concerns don’t really apply to people with those types of diseases.

“It’s a different population, and there is some risk in that population but it’s not the same,” said Gold.

The medical community is now turning its focus to a different drug, remdesivir, for the treatment of the coronavirus.

On Friday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration allowed emergency use of that intravenous drug for severe COVID patients who are hospitalized with the disease.

The FDA acted after preliminary results from a government-sponsored study showed that remdesivir shortened the time to recovery by 31%, or about four days on average, for hospitalized COVID-19 patients.
