Life Giving Information You Need To Know





Please pass this life giving information on to doctors you know.



Dr. Thomas Yadegar is the ICU Director at Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center. He's a pulmonologist, and his California team hasn't lost a single patient to COVID 19. Better yet? They haven't used a single ventilator, either. How?

Dr. Yadegar says that this new coronavirus doesn't just trigger a response to the virus, but it can trigger negative immune system responses too. These auto immune responses can then lead to heart attacks, blood clots, strokes, or more.

His team has learned to look for these signs, specific markers,  EARLY in patients, rather than searching for a quick fix -- or a one-size-fits-all -- approach to treating the virus. All cases differ, and THAT's the key to preventing loss of life.

Please take the time to watch this 17 min video where Dr Thomas Yadegar explains how his group has treated the covid-19 in their ICU and not lost a single patient or used a single ventilator!


How doctors can potentially significantly reduce the number of deaths from Covid-19



We already have medicines for treating cytokine storm syndrome, the immune response that’s killing many who die of Covid-19.    STRATEGIES FOR INHIBITING CYTOKINES

Pass this information along quickly to doctors to save lives.


Some doctors will resist simply because they want a quick fix to the corona virus covid-19 but this is exactly what doctors should not be using or looking for concerning the covid-19 virus.

Knowing that testing all covid-19 patients for cytokine storm symptoms is the KEY to SAVING LIVES!


All Covid-19 patients sick enough for hospitalization should be given a cheap, quick, and readily available serum ferritin blood test.

This test will help indicate if a covid-19 patient needs treatment for a cytokine storm, which is the body's immune system over response to an infection which causes the body to destroy its own organs.


The first thing any covid-19 patient should do or a loved one should do is ASK the doctor if he or she will be givining a  serum ferritin blood test  to check to see if your body's immune system is overreacting to the wuhan, corona, covid-19 virus.

This is a critical initial test to possibey save your life if you are one of the type of people that will have a sudden overreaction response of your immune system to the sars-2 corona virus.

Everyone young and old can have a cytokine storm syndrome that can result in your death.

Even if you are in good health and your immune system is working properly your body can have an over response to the sars-2 corona virus.

If you have an underlying health problem this canmake your body's cytokine storm syndrome much worse.

This is what makes the sars-2 corona virus different.

It kicks off your body's own immune system into a cytokine storm that causes your body to destroy its own organs.

After about 7 days your symptoms can become worse because your body overreacts to the sars-2 corona virus.

This is why some healthy young people get the sars-2 virus and suddenly die.

This is why older people suddenly die, their immune system overreacts and destroys itself.


Please keep this in mind.

Most people's bodies DO NOT OVERREACT when the have been infected with the sars-2 corona virus.

People will have the sars-2 corona virus with differnet  symptoms ranging from no symptoms or some symptoms.

This is also what makes the sars-2 corona virus different.

People's immune systems have different responses to the sars-2 virus.

Every sars-2 patient is differnet as,  ICU DOCTOR Thomas Yadegar : Key to Treating COVID 19 is Realizing There's NO QUICK FIX to Virus, All Cases Differ has said.



THEREFORE each sars-2 corona virus patient must be tested if they have the covid-19 symptoms or are admitted to a hospital. This is critical to saving lives!

(1) Its is also critical that the attending doctor  use a  serum ferritin blood test  to check to see if your body's immune system is overreacting to the wuhan, corona, covid-19 virus.

(2) If this test indicates your body's response to the sars-2 virus will kick off a  cytokine storm it is also critical that you doctor begin to give you medicines that will INHIBIT THE CYTOKINES.


The public is in total fear or the sars-2, covid-19, corona virus because they lack this life giving knowledge that the sars-2 corona virus CAN BE CURED if it is detected by using the serum ferritin blood test. and then treated using STRATEGIES FOR INHIBITING CYTOKINES.




Don't live in fear about the sars-2 corona virus.

On a personal note:  I am a 69 year old man who is not a doctor.

I have been researching information about the sars-2 virus and found information about how it is killing some people and others recover with little sysmptoms.

I go about my daily life NOT wearing a mask of any kind. I don't live in fear about the sars-s corona virus because I have the knowledge that it can be cured and I know what to do if I get the symptoms of the sars-2 corona virus.

I think my immune system is in fairly good shape because I take care of myself and don't get sick very often and when I do I recover in a short time.

Watching the tv and listening to the radio I hear daily statistics about the corona virus deaths and new cases.

I know the CDC has mandated that all doctors code deaths as caused by the sars-2 corona virus even if the patient had other underlying health problems.

This means all of the daily statistics about the sars-2 corona virus death rates are inflated and incorrect.

SO I IGNORE the national and local media hype about corona virus death rates.  (This is FAKE NEWS.)

I also know that wearing a cloth mask does not protect me from the sars-2 corona virus but could possible keep me from giving it to another person if I had the sars-2 corona virus.

If I had symptoms of the sars-2 corona virus I would not go out in public, especially not go out into the public wearing a cloth face mask that is not certified to keep another person from getting the sars-2.

The only mask that is certified to help keep your safe from the sars-2 corona virus is an N95 mask.

A cloth mask as you see most people wear is a useless piece of cloth when it comes to keeping you from getting the sars-2 corona virus and most likely will not keep other safe from infection if I had the sars-2 corona virus myself.

Cloth masks have become a fad of sorts. They come in many differnet types and shapes. People who sell them make sure you are happy with your unique mask that is mostly useless but will make you feel better thinking your are helping yourself or others. A big lie!


If you have an underlyng health condition of course you are more at risk from dying if you get the sars-2 corona virus.

This would be true even if the sars-2 covid-19 virus didn't have the unique ability to kick off your immune system to to overreact and kill you.

Does this mean you should stay at home and avoid the public.  NO!

It means you are aware of you underlying health condition and that you need to take the same precautions you did before to protect yourself.

You don't need the government telling you to do what you all ready are doing.

If you do have an underlying health condition you should consider wearing an N95 mask at times when you think you may need to protect YOURSELF.

Don't every wear a cloth mask to protect yourself, it is useless for that purpose.

Get out into the sunshine and enjoy yourself with your loved ones.





In Review:




If you are healthy with no underlying health conditions there is now NO NEED to self isolate yourself because there is now no critical need for ICU bed space in most hospitals anywhere in the United States.



The initial reason given by the federal goverment CDC was to self isolate to flatten the curve so hospitals were not overwhelmed with sars-2 patients.



Now there is NO reason to self isolate because of this!



If you are worried about getting the sars-2 corna virus don't worry because staying at home won't keep you from getting it later when you decide to come out of your shell.



Initially it was a good idea to self isolate because of all the unknows about the sars-2 virus and the possibliltyof overloading the health system but this is NOT TRUE NOW!



You may never get the sars-2 virus and if you do you now know it can be cured!



Why stay at home and self isolate?  Why wear a mask that is almost useless? 


Why listen to the mass media telling you information that is not correct?



I ignore the national mass media hype about the sars-2 virus because I know the facts about how it can be cured.


I igonore the local media hype parroting the national fake news media hype about the sars-2 virus.

The national and local news media are not telling you that the sars-s corona virus can be cured if you get it!

DON"T LIVE YOUR ENTIRE LIFE WORRING ABOUT GETTING THE sars-2 corona virus!

Don't be a prisoner of your own self isolation listening to the fake news media hype about the sars-2 corna virus.



I think this is  Real Life Giving and life changing information you should know.

I hope you will pass this life giving information to others.

Thank You











Editor Note


People are dying in ICU's all over the USA because many doctors are not aware of how to properly diagnose and treat a COVID-19 patient in the ICU.

Dr. Thomas Yadegar is the ICU Director at Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center has and is saving lives treating the COVID-19 virus.

A key factor is treating each COVID-19 patient differently because  COVID-19 is different in each patient.

Inflammatory markers in some patients are elevated and these patients suddenly get much worse.

*************************************************


 
All Covid-19 patients sick enough for hospitalization should be given a cheap, quick, and readily available serum ferritin blood test. 


This is a good first screening tool for the possibility of a cytokine storm syndrome in sick patients with high fevers.

Those individuals with cytokine storm syndrome will require treatment of the overly active immune response.  An overactive immune response can be deadly.

With the development of biologic therapies for a variety of rheumatic, oncologic, and other conditions, novel approaches to treating the immune response are now available. 

These highly targeted medicines go after one or a few inflammatory molecules, including cytokines, without the general immune suppression effected by corticosteroids and other relatively non-selective immune suppressants.

Recently, a number of specific anti-cytokine approaches have proven effective in treating a variety of cytokine storm syndromes, including those triggered by viruses. These include drugs targeting interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-6, IL-18, and interferon-gamma.

We must also use all the knowledge at our disposal to treat those patients most at risk of dying – including from Covid-19-induced cytokine storms.




STRATEGIES FOR INHIBITING CYTOKINES





For this to occur, the medical community must first be aware of the possibility, then make the diagnosis, and finally treat infected individuals with overly active immune responses that are harmful, if not fatal, left untreated.

This should help save the lives of those unfortunate individuals at risk of Covid-19 induced cytokine storm syndrome.



*************************************************


They go from needing very little oxygen to the need to be intubated within 6 to 12 hours.

If these patients are treated before they get to the point of needing to be intibated by using the inflammatory markers with anti inflamatory medication, strong immunine suppressive medication, which is counter intuitive, but THAT IS WHAT HAS WORKED FOR THESE PATIENTS!

Acting fast and early is the key to effectively treating a corona virus patient in an ICU.

Early detection and early treatment will save lives!


IF you are an ICU doctor please use this information to treat your ICU COVID-19 patients.


California pulmonologist on how he's identifying and treating extreme COVID-19 cases



A California pulmonologist explained on “Fox & Friends” on Tuesday the protocol he created to help identify and treat the most extreme COVID-19 cases, saying the key is to find these patients and prevent them from going on ventilators. 

The new coronavirus is spread by microscopic droplets from coughs or sneezes and causes mild to moderate symptoms in most. For some, especially older adults and the infirm, it can cause pneumonia and lead to death.

Speaking from Los Angeles on Tuesday, Dr. Tom Yadegar, a specialist in critical care medicine who has been treating COVID-19 patients, said he noticed several patients were deteriorating quickly and needed to be put on ventilators. He said he realized that he had to find out why these patients were experiencing sudden deterioration.

“This happened to me just like it's happened to every other doctor who is taking care of these patients and it was very alarming that I didn't understand what happened,” said Yadegar, medical director of the intensive care unit at Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center.



He said that prompted him to start researching what was happening to those COVID-19 patients. Yadegar explained that through his research he found out that “what was happening is a process called cytokine storm syndrome.”

According to the National Cancer Institute (NCI), cytokine storm, which can occur as a result of infection, autoimmune conditions or diseases, is “a severe immune reaction in which the body releases too many cytokines into the blood too quickly.”

“Cytokines play an important role in normal immune responses, but having a large amount of them released in the body all at once can be harmful,” NCI explained.

On Tuesday, Yadegar explained that “in this syndrome, the immune system is activated – you have intense inflammation and subsequently it leads to patients requiring mechanical ventilation.”

He said once he figured out what the diagnosis was, he started doing more research to try and figure out “how do we look for it in a laboratory value so that we can find it before it happens because when it happens, it's almost too late.”

He added that “it’s very important to find these patients and prevent them from going on ventilators.”

Yadegar said he came up with “a handful of lab tests” that he thought were useful “and we started ordering them on admission when the patients were presenting to the ER [emergency room] and then tracking them every few days and it was a very clear pattern that we learned.”

He noted that it is not the case that every COVID-19 patient that is admitted to the hospital develops cytokine storm syndrome.



“You can predict on presentation who is going to be at risk for it and then if you follow certain markers and their clinical course you can actually tell who is going to develop it and, more importantly, you can intervene to prevent them from getting to that point where they need a ventilator,” Yadegar said.

He said that as people’s immune systems kick in, he has a better result by actually suppressing that person’s immune system, which he said was “pretty counterintuitive.”



DOCTORS PLEASE NOTE THIS:


“For the past few months we have heard about this virus that's killing everyone," he said, "and the way to disarm it is disarm the immune system."

Save lives by knowing when to disarm the immune system in COVID-19 patients.

Know the signs, ie markers, by using lab tests like Dr Yadegar has done.

Contact him if necessary to find out how he has saved lives. All his patients have survived and none have been on ventilators.

High-Risk Medical Errors

Sometimes, a medical error poses little physical risk to a patient, such as getting billed for a procedure that didn’t take place. 

Other times, the consequences are life or death—and those types of high-risk medical errors typically occur in fast-paced, high-pressure environments, such as hospital emergency rooms, hospital intensive care units, and operating rooms in hospitals.

But that doesn’t mean medical errors can’t happen at your care provider’s office or other outpatient settings.

Types of Medical Errors

Now that we’ve defined what counts as a medical error, what are the most common types of medical errors in the United States?
  • Misdiagnosis   (Note This.)
  • Billing errors
  • Incorrect medication/incorrect dosage
  • Incorrectly identifying a patient
  • Surgical errors


Misdiagnosis

Misdiagnosis occurs when a patient with one illness or disease is told they have a different illness or disease.  According to a 2014 study, roughly 12,000,000 Americans are misdiagnosed at outpatient facilities every year.

The study’s authors concluded that this issue creates a “substantial patient safety risk” and should be addressed. Reducing the chance of patient harm should be a main priority.

Of the 12,000,000 total Americans receiving a misdiagnosis, roughly 50 percent could be seriously harmed by getting the wrong diagnosis.




Bonus Editor Note:


 Most people have no choice but to totally rely on what an ICU doctor is doing to a patient.

If you don't know how a doctor is treating a patient with COVID-19 or are afraid to ask you or your loved one may be added to the misdiagnosis statistic!

Don't be afraid to ask a couple of critical questions such as:

How do you diagnose a COVID-19 patient?

You should be looking for this answer.


Are you looking and know the signs, ie markers, by using lab tests like Dr Yadegar has done?

Are you familiar with the protocols that Dr Yadegar has used to save lives and keep people off of ventilators?

If your doctor says he or she is not aware of DR Yadegar procedures or protocols you maybe talking to a doctor that is not aware of how to properly treat a COVID-19 patient.

The key to saving COVID-19 patients lives is knowing when to disarm the immune system in COVID-19 patients.

Inflammatory markers in some patients are elevated and these patients suddenly get much worse.

They go from needing very little oxygen to the need to be intubated within 6 to 12 hours.

If these patients are treated before they get to the point of needing to be intibated by using the inflammatory markers with anti inflamatory medication, strong immunine suppressive medication, which is counter intuitive, but THAT IS WHAT HAS WORKED FOR THESE PATIENTS!

Acting fast and early is the key to effectively treating a corona virus patient in an ICU.

Early detection and early treatment will save lives!


IF you are an ICU doctor please use this information to treat your ICU COVID-19 patients.

Stanford doctor explains why coronavirus lockdown policies need to end




Stanford doctor explains why coronavirus lockdown policies need to end: Ignore the panic and rely on facts.


Stanford Doctor Says corona virus lockdown policies need to end




Corona virus runs in a 70 day cycle.


Keeping people self isolated is only making the corona virus spread more.


(I  believe the cdc and world health organization are allowing this to happen on purpose with the help of mass media and our useless massive government. Get your head out of your rear mr president.)


There is massive unemployment  numbers compared to the number of people who have had the corona virus and the number of people who have died from the corona virus, which includes FAKE death numbers mandated by the CDC requirement that doctors code ALL cases of deaths as caused by the corona virus even if the person who died had other health problems which could have caused their death.


The daily increasing massive unemployment numbers are real.

The daily increasing corona deaths and reported corona cases are NOT REAL.

Many thousands more have had the corona virus than is being reported.

The fake news media is using "braking corona news" on a daily basis using FAKE corona virus case numbers and FAKE corona virus death rates to deceive the American public into believing in their manufactured FAKE Crisis!

Because these numbers are flashed on your tv screen or reported on the radio in a dynamic daily, hourly fashion it has led to the American public believing we are all in a real crisis caused by the corona virus.


The real crisis is the govenment crackdown on your Constitutional Freedoms through deception of a perceived crisis caused by the corona virus.



NOTE THIS! 



If the flu virus or other unique viruses were reported in past years like the corona virus is being reported  in the mass media this year a manufactured FAKE Crisis could have been created anytime in past.


The fake news media is reporting corona virus data like its a stock market futures report.


They have everybody glued to their screens wanting to know what is happening and what is predicted to happen but it is ALL FAKE NEWS.

Every week the stock market goes up or down according to speculation on the futures markets.

The FAKE CORONA VIRUS FUTURES MARKET is now controlling the US Economy.

The US government is not in control of this fake news media corona virus futures market.

Just like people used to be at the mercy of the futures oil market controlling the up and down price of gas at the gas pump we the American people are now at the mercy and control of the:

FAKE CORONA VIRUS FUTURES MARKET being reported by the FAKE news media and again repeated over and over by the federal, state and local governments.






The corona death toll numbers are inflated by the CDC guidelines for doctors coding the reason for deaths.

Our own govenment is destroying the US economy.

Our own government is telling telling you LIES about the corona virus.

Do not listen to the government telling you to stay at home if you are a person in good health with a good immunity system.

Young people don't need to wear masks and stay home.

Its all a BIG LIE!!!


Stanford Doctor Says corona virus lockdown policies need to end




If you have your head up your rear end like trump does about opening up the US economy go ahead and live your life from your couch.

Stanford doctor explains why coronavirus lockdown policies need to end: Ignore the panic and rely on facts.


He says it's hurting more than it's helping

 

The former chief of neuroradiology at Stanford University said the United States needs to end widespread coronavirus lockdowns and adopt a more targeted approach that both protects the most vulnerable people and builds immunity in the population.


In an op-ed published in The Hill, Dr. Scott Atlas laid out some key facts he believes policymakers are ignoring about the pandemic, and called for leaders to "ignore the panic" when making decisions.

"Tens of thousands of Americans have died, and Americans are now desperate for sensible policymakers who have the courage to ignore the panic and rely on facts," Atlas wrote.

"Leaders must examine accumulated data to see what has actually happened, rather than keep emphasizing hypothetical projections; combine that empirical evidence with fundamental principles of biology established for decades; and then thoughtfully restore the country to function."

Atlas wrote that because the overall mortality rate is increasingly looking to be 0.1%-0.5% based on antibody studies, and because that mortality rate is even lower among healthy adults under the age of 50, it makes no sense to continue requiring all of the population to isolate when such a small percentage of people are in real danger from COVID-19.


Instead, Atlas wrote, states should craft policies that focus on protecting the elderly and those with chronic underlying conditions. Targeting that segment of the population, although it's smaller, will have the greatest impact on minimizing hospitalizations (preventing the health care system from becoming overwhelmed) and reducing deaths.

Mass lockdowns are not only unnecessary, but they are actively delaying the process that must occur in order for things to return to normal, Atlas believes. Without a vaccine or proven treatment, the only way to get past the COVID-19 outbreak is to develop herd immunity.

"In fact, infected people without severe illness are the immediately available vehicle for establishing widespread immunity," Atlas wrote. "By transmitting the virus to others in the low-risk group who then generate antibodies, they block the network of pathways toward the most vulnerable people, ultimately ending the threat. Extending whole-population isolation would directly prevent that widespread immunity from developing."

Atlas also pointed out that people are suffering and dying because hospitals have stopped procedures deemed nonessential, which can prevent the diagnoses of life-threatening illnesses and delay treatment for other conditions.

"The appropriate policy, based on fundamental biology and the evidence already in hand, is to institute a more focused strategy like some outlined in the first place: Strictly protect the known vulnerable, self-isolate the mildly sick and open most workplaces and small businesses with some prudent large-group precautions," Atlas concluded.

Atlas discussed his opposition to the lockdowns and explained why the models used to justify them have been consistently wrong during an interview with BlazeTV's Steve Deace on Thursday.






The tragedy of the COVID-19 pandemic appears to be entering the containment phase.


The tragedy of the COVID-19 pandemic appears to be entering the containment phase. Tens of thousands of Americans have died, and Americans are now desperate for sensible policymakers who have the courage to ignore the panic and rely on facts. Leaders must examine accumulated data to see what has actually happened, rather than keep emphasizing hypothetical projections; combine that empirical evidence with fundamental principles of biology established for decades; and then thoughtfully restore the country to function.


Five key facts are being ignored by those calling for continuing the near-total lockdown.


This includes:

(President Trump/Congress and all those who continue to tell America THE BIG LIE!)


Fact 1: The overwhelming majority of people do not have any significant risk of dying from COVID-19.


The recent Stanford University antibody study now estimates that the fatality rate if infected is likely 0.1 to 0.2 percent, a risk far lower than previous World Health Organization estimates that were 20 to 30 times higher and that motivated isolation policies.

 In New York City, an epicenter of the pandemic with more than one-third of all U.S. deaths, the rate of death for people 18 to 45 years old is 0.01 percent, or 10 per 100,000 in the population. On the other hand, people aged 75 and over have a death rate 80 times that. For people under 18 years old, the rate of death is zero per 100,000.

Of all fatal cases in New York state, two-thirds were in patients over 70 years of age; more than 95 percent were over 50 years of age; and about 90 percent of all fatal cases had an underlying illness. Of 6,570 confirmed COVID-19 deaths fully investigated for underlying conditions to date, 6,520, or 99.2 percent, had an underlying illness.

If you do not already have an underlying chronic condition, your chances of dying are small, regardless of age. And young adults and children in normal health have almost no risk of any serious illness from COVID-19.


Fact 2: Protecting older, at-risk people eliminates hospital overcrowding.


We can learn about hospital utilization from data from New York City, the hotbed of COVID-19 with more than 34,600 hospitalizations to date. For those under 18 years of age, hospitalization from the virus is 0.01 percent, or 11 per 100,000 people; for those 18 to 44 years old, hospitalization is 0.1 percent. Even for people ages 65 to 74, only 1.7 percent were hospitalized. Of 4,103 confirmed COVID-19 patients with symptoms bad enough to seek medical care, Dr. Leora Horwitz of NYU Medical Center concluded "age is far and away the strongest risk factor for hospitalization."

Even early WHO reports noted that 80 percent of all cases were mild, and more recent studies show a far more widespread rate of infection and lower rate of serious illness. Half of all people testing positive for infection have no symptoms at all. The vast majority of younger, otherwise healthy people do not need significant medical care if they catch this infection.



Fact 3: Vital population immunity is prevented by total isolation policies, prolonging the problem.


We know from decades of medical science that infection itself allows people to generate an immune response — antibodies — so that the infection is controlled throughout the population by “herd immunity.” Indeed, that is the main purpose of widespread immunization in other viral diseases — to assist with population immunity.

In this virus, we know that medical care is not even necessary for the vast majority of people who are infected. It is so mild that half of infected people are asymptomatic, shown in early data from the Diamond Princess ship, and then in Iceland and Italy. That has been falsely portrayed as a problem requiring mass isolation.




Editor Note:



(President Trump has relied on the CDC docotrs fauchy and brix to DECEIVE America into believing they can protect themselves by staying at home, wearing a mask, staying 6 feet apart etc. A BIG LIE!!!!!) 


This is exactly what those in the "deep state", people in government and out of government, want you to believe for the purpose of destroying the US economy.


This purpose is to keep Trump from being reelected but most of all to increase the size of the already massive government.


The democrate candidate for president is a sleeze bag senile idiot.

We The People can't rely on the government to help restore the US economy.

We The People can't rely on,  I am sorry to say, is  donald trump to restore the US economy.

WE The People of America can rely on ourselves to restore the US economy.

Our government is out of control and is becoming a dictatorship.

Do Not Listen to president trump and the mass news media lies that tell you to self isolate even though you are a health person with a good immunity system.

You are not at risk of dying.

You most likely will get a virus or have had a virus but there is NO NEED TO SELF ISOLATE. wear a mask and stay 6 feet apart from others.  It is a LIE!)



In fact, infected people without severe illness are the immediately available vehicle for establishing widespread immunity. By transmitting the virus to others in the low-risk group who then generate antibodies, they block the network of pathways toward the most vulnerable people, ultimately ending the threat. Extending whole-population isolation would directly prevent that widespread immunity from developing.


Fact 4: People are dying because other medical care is not getting done due to hypothetical projections.


Critical health care for millions of Americans is being ignored and people are dying to accommodate “potential” COVID-19 patients and for fear of spreading the disease. Most states and many hospitals abruptly stopped “nonessential” procedures and surgery. That prevented diagnoses of life-threatening diseases, like cancer screening, biopsies of tumors now undiscovered and potentially deadly brain aneurysms.

Treatments, including emergency care, for the most serious illnesses were also missed. Cancer patients deferred chemotherapy. An estimated 80 percent of brain surgery cases were skipped. Acute stroke and heart attack patients missed their only chances for treatment, some dying and many now facing permanent disability.


Fact 5: We have a clearly defined population at risk who can be protected with targeted measures.


The overwhelming evidence all over the world consistently shows that a clearly defined group — older people and others with underlying conditions — is more likely to have a serious illness requiring hospitalization and more likely to die from COVID-19.


Knowing that, it is a commonsense, achievable goal to target isolation policy to that group, including strictly monitoring those who interact with them.

Nursing home residents, the highest risk, should be the most straightforward to systematically protect from infected people, given that they already live in confined places with highly restricted entry.




THIS IS WHAT ALL OF AMERICA SHOULD BE DOING NOW!!!!!!




The appropriate policy, based on fundamental biology and the evidence already in hand, is to institute a more focused strategy like some outlined in the first place:


ONE SIZE FITS ALL WILL NEVER WORK! 

This is all the Federal. State And Local Governments know how to do.


__________________________



THIS IS THE ANSWER TO THE MANUFACTURED MEDIA/GOVERMENT FAKE CRISIS


Strictly protect the known vulnerable, self-isolate the mildly sick and open most workplaces and small businesses with some prudent large-group precautions.


****  Follow Governor Brian Kemp's Example In Georgia  ***

This would allow the essential socializing to generate immunity among those with minimal risk of serious consequence, while saving lives, preventing overcrowding of hospitals and limiting the enormous harms compounded by continued total isolation.


Let’s stop underemphasizing empirical evidence while instead doubling down on hypothetical models. Facts matter.


They say you "can't fix stupid" and this is true.


Mass media deception, federal, state and local officials who along with President Trump's stunning example of continuing to allow the US economy to be destroying via the CDC, mass media/democrate lies can't be fixed!


What you can do is IGNORE FAKE NEWS/Government Lies about self isolation.

Use Governor Brian Kemp's leadership example in Georgia to Make America Great Again.

3,330 prision inmates in 4 states test positive for corona virus with 96% having NO SYMPTOMS!




In four U.S. state prisons, nearly 3,300 inmates test positive for coronavirus -- 96% without symptoms



When the first cases of the new coronavirus surfaced in Ohio’s prisons, the director in charge felt like she was fighting a ghost.


“We weren’t always able to pinpoint where all the cases were coming from,” said Annette Chambers-Smith, director of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. As the virus spread, they began mass testing.

They started with the Marion Correctional Institution, which houses 2,500 prisoners in north central Ohio, many of them older with pre-existing health conditions. After testing 2,300 inmates for the coronavirus, they were shocked. Of the 2,028 who tested positive, close to 95% had no symptoms.
“It was very surprising,” said Chambers-Smith, who oversees the state’s 28 correctional facilities.

As mass coronavirus testing expands in prisons, large numbers of inmates are showing no symptoms. In four state prison systems — Arkansas, North Carolina, Ohio and Virginia — 96% of 3,277 inmates who tested positive for the coronavirus were asymptomatic, according to interviews with officials and records reviewed by Reuters. That’s out of 4,693 tests that included results on symptoms.

The numbers are the latest evidence to suggest that people who are asymptomatic — contagious but not physically sick — may be driving the spread of the virus, not only in state prisons that house 1.3 million inmates across the country, but also in communities across the globe. The figures also reinforce questions over whether testing of just people suspected of being infected is actually capturing the spread of the virus.

“It adds to the understanding that we have a severe undercount of cases in the U.S.,” said Dr. Leana Wen, adjunct associate professor of emergency medicine at George Washington University, said of the Reuters findings. “The case count is likely much, much higher than we currently know because of the lack of testing and surveillance.”

Some people diagnosed as asymptomatic when tested for the coronavirus, however, may go on to develop symptoms later, according to researchers.



The United States has more people behind bars than any other nation, a total incarcerated population of nearly 2.3 million as of 2017 — nearly half of which is in state prisons. Smaller numbers are locked in federal prisons and local jails, which typically hold people for relatively short periods as they await trial.

State prison systems in Michigan, Tennessee and California have also begun mass testing — checking for coronavirus infections in large numbers of inmates even if they show no sign of illness — but have not provided specific counts of asymptomatic prisoners.

Tennessee said a majority of its positive cases didn’t show symptoms. In Michigan, state authorities said “a good number” of the 620 prisoners who tested positive for the coronavirus were asymptomatic. California’s state prison system would not release counts of asymptomatic prisoners.



VAST UNDERCOUNT

Reuters surveyed all 50 state prison systems. Of the 30 that responded, most are only testing inmates who show symptoms, suggesting they could be vastly undercounting the number infected by the coronavirus.

After a recent spike in cases at the Neuse Correctional Institution in Goldsboro, North Carolina, state correctional officials tested all 723 prisoners last week. Of the 444 who were infected by the virus, 98% were asymptomatic, the state’s department of public safety said. One inmate has died at the prison.

Similarly, mass testing at two Arkansas prisons — the Cummins Unit in the city of Grady and the Community Correction Center in the state capital Little Rock — found 751 infected inmates, almost all of them asymptomatic, the state corrections department said. It did not provide the total number of inmates who were tested.



Arkansas’ prisons have faced contagious disease outbreaks before, such as scabies and chickenpox, but those episodes were easier to manage because inmates showed overt symptoms, said Arkansas Department of Corrections spokeswoman Dina Tyler. “But with this virus, you have no idea because so many are asymptomatic. It makes it very challenging to contain,” she said.
‘24-HOUR TURNAROUND IS CRUCIAL’

Michigan’s Lakeland Correctional Facility houses some of the state’s oldest and most medically frail prisoners. When coronavirus cases surged, the prison saw a spike in infections and deaths. As of April 23, nine Lakeland inmates had died from COVID-19, accounting for a third of the deaths across Michigan’s 29 state prisons.

Nearly half of Lakeland’s 1,400 prisoners suffer from chronic underlying health conditions, according to state data. Many are in wheelchairs, and the minimum-security facility in southern Michigan has its own geriatric unit for its large elderly population.

On Tuesday, the prison tested all 400 inmates in the geriatric ward and plans to test the rest of the facility by the end of the week. Of the 971 tested so far, 642, or about 66%, were positive. A state official declined to disclose how many were asymptomatic.

“We know mass testing is going to make our numbers spike and might make us look bad,” said Chris Gautz, spokesman for the Michigan Department of Corrections. “But I don’t think there’s another prison system in the country that doesn’t have large numbers. They just might not be testing as rigorously as we are.”

All tested inmates are quarantined in their rooms or units pending the test results, which usually come back in a day, he said. “The 24-hour turnaround is crucial” because once an inmate tests negative, they can return to the general population, he said.

 “They’re worse than landlocked cruise ships,” Stern, the corrections expert, said, referring to stranded cruise ships that have been overwhelmed by coronavirus infections.




Editor note



New York City and other large cities like new york are also similar to a stranded cruse ship that is overwhelmed.

There are not just thousands of people in the US that have asymptomatic with NO SYMPTOMS.

There are Millions.

Please note my previous post about the arc labs antibody test for the corona virus.


About the covid-19 antibody test

This test has a disclainer.


HERE IS WHY THE ARC LABS COVID-19 TEST IS USELESS!!!!


"The antibody tests are not able to distinguish whether the antibodies were generated in response to COVID-19 or several other non-SARS-COV-2 corona virus strains such as HKU1, NL63, OC43 or 229E,".

The corona virus is a very common virus. The covid-19 corona virus is a new virus.

SARS-COV-2, HKU1, NL63, OC43 or 229E are also corona viruses that have infected the US population.

Millions of people have the antibodies for SARS-COV-2, HKU1, NL63, OC43 or 229E  corona viruses.

The antibody test CANNOT distinguish between the COVID-19 and all these other previous corona viruses.

So if you get the test and it shows you have antibodies it DOES NOT MEAN YOU HAVE HAD THE COVID-19  WUHAN VIRUS!!!!!


If this is the test they are giving in the prisions their conclusions are also invalid.


In other words their covid-19 test for antibodies that shows inmates with no symptoms is totally invalid because the antibody test is invalid.


So how do they know in a hospital or anywhere that you have the COVID-19 wuhan virus?

It would seem by not relying on any COVID-19 test.

It would seem strickly by observering the symptoms.

The symptoms can be different than the flu or similar to the flu it would seem.

This just gets more and more  convoluted and complicated.



UNTIL A VALID COVID-19 ANTIBODY TEST IS AVAILABLE DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY getting the ARC LABS covid-19 test for $75.00 or more!


Don't rely on the arc labs antibody test.

It can give you a false positive and a false sense of knowing you had the covid-19 virus.

This worthless test should not be allowed to be given to anyone.

This is an example of one of many companys who are profiting from the covid-19 panic crisis.



Its just SNAKE OIL in a test, just like the guy who goes from town to town in a wagon that stands up in the wagon holding a bottle of something called,

Georgia Governor Brian Kemp Leads The Way Out Of The Corna Virus Panic Darkness - April 24, 2020





Editor Note


Georgia Governor Brian Kemp Leads The Way Out Of The Corna Virus Panic Darkness - April 24, 2020

I am very disappointed that President Trump Via White House issued guidelines for states to begin to safely reopen our nation’s economy and then said in a news conference he didn't think Governor Brian Kemp should open up the State of Georgia economy.

President Trump is wrong and Governor Kemp is correct.

Now is the time to open up the State of Georgia.

President Trump's leadership in this instance is lacking as he is talking out of both sides of his mouth and saying two different things which sends conflicting information to the American people who continue to be deceived by the mass media and the government that there is a need for everybody to continue to self isolate at home because this will protect them and health care workers.

THIS IS THE BIG LIE!

Read this recent blog post:  Stop the panic and end the total isolation and save lives.

Also read more information about how you are being deceived by the mass media/local media, federal, state and local governments about the corona virus and what you should do.


April 25, 2020 About the covid-19 antibody test


April 21, 2020 Don't listen to fake wuhan virus death predictions from the media

 

The 50 state list below is where people can go to get the latest information about the corona virus in your specific location. 

The fake news media continues to promote the inflated corona virus model predicted death rates along with 24/7 fake news promoting their ratings.

See for yourself the data in your specific state.

There are BIG differences in the covid-19 virus in each state.

For instance New York has the highest rates for many reasons, including  allowing people to be packed into subways, this state was very unprepared to deal with the corona virus because of bad leadership.

The corona virus death rates are not valid because the CDC guidelines require all corona virus cases be labeled as cause of dealth as the corona virus even though  underlying health conditions may have been the actual cause of death.

This CDC is required coding is in all 50 states also. Another big lie that is being promoted by the fake news media, federal, state and local governments!

WHen wille the big lie stop?

 

The BIG LIE about the corona virus continues via the national/local media and federal, state and local governments continues - except for, thank GOD, the State of Georgia and Governor Brian Kemp who should be running for President.

HERE IS TRUE LEADERSHIP BY THE GOVERNOR OF GEORGIA

BRIAN KEMP


Gov. Kemp Updates Georgians on COVID-19 April 20, 2020



"Last week, the White House issued guidelines for states to begin to safely reopen our nation’s economy. We appreciate their leadership and share in the president’s desire to reopen the economy and get Americans back to work. As a small business person for over thirty years, I know the impact of this pandemic on hardworking Georgians in every zip code and every community. With heightened supply and limited demand, crops are rotting and farmers are struggling to keep employees on the payroll. Our small business owners are seeing sales plummet, and the company that they built with blood, sweat, and tears disappear right before them. Contract workers are struggling to put food on the table. Our large businesses, which serve as anchors in many Georgia towns, are scaling back operations, leaving some with reduced hours and others with no job. These are tough moments in our state and nation. I hear the concerns of those I am honored to serve. I see the terrible impact of COVID-19 on public health and the pocketbook.

"Informed by the Coronavirus Task Force and public health officials, 'Opening Up America Again' includes three phases to safely reopen and get folks back to work. To initiate Phase One, a state must meet a series of basic criteria, which can be tailored to reflect specific circumstances for a regional or statewide approach. For weeks now, our state has taken targeted action to prevent, detect, and address the spread of coronavirus by leveraging data and advice from health officials in the public and private sectors. Thanks to this methodical approach and the millions of Georgians who have worked diligently to slow the spread of coronavirus, we are on track to meet the gating criteria for Phase One.

"According to the Department of Public Health, reports of emergency room visits for flu-like illnesses are declining, documented COVID-19 cases have flattened and appear to be declining, and we have seen declining emergency room visits in general. By expanding our hospital bed capacity - including the temporary facility at the Georgia World Congress Center - we have the ability to treat patients without crisis care in hospital settings. Our proactive actions have reduced stress and strain on area hospitals as well as the communities and families that they serve.

"Now, a key component of the gating criteria is testing. For weeks, I have expressed my frustration with the status of testing and committed more resources to expansion. We partnered with the University System of Georgia, partnered with the private sector to offer drive-thru services, and recently empowered public health departments across Georgia to offer testing for all symptomatic individuals. Today we’re taking this effort to the next level by announcing an even broader partnership with the state’s dedicated health sciences university and its health system to double down on our testing capacity and meet the requirements necessary to move forward with the president’s plan.

"As many of you know, Augusta University Health launched a telemedicine app as part of their comprehensive plan to screen, test, and treat Georgia patients through an algorithm designed by experts at the Medical College of Georgia. This app has enhanced public health while reducing exposure for our doctors, nurses, and medical staff. We are encouraging symptomatic Georgians to download the app this week and begin the screening process. Georgians can access the app by visiting AugustaHealth.org or downloading AU Health ExpressCare on your smartphone. You can also call (706) 721-1852. This free app is user-friendly, and through this app, physicians and advanced practice providers from Augusta University Health and the Medical College of Georgia are available to users twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. If you begin to display symptoms consistent with COVID-19 – day or night – you can log onto AU Health’s telemedicine app or call to get screened by a clinician. If you meet criteria for testing, staff will contact you to schedule a test at one of the state’s designated testing locations near your home. Your healthcare information will be securely transmitted to your designated testing site.

"This streamlined process reduces stress on both the patient and testing site workers. Once you arrive for your appointment, you will provide a specimen for testing. From there, we will leverage the power of several key academic institutions in the state to process tests. These include Augusta University, Emory University, Georgia State University, and the Georgia Public Health Lab. In roughly seventy-two hours, you will be able to access your test results via a secure patient portal, and a medical provider will contact you directly if you are positive. The clinician will assist you with enrolling in a self-reporting app by Google named MTX where - with patient consent - the Department of Public Health can use enhanced contact monitoring and tracing.

"Through this partnership, Augusta University will produce testing swabs in the Dental College of Georgia innovation lab. By using the same 3-D printers that have produced face shields for healthcare workers, the innovation lab will create thousands of swabs per day. This capability greatly reduces our dependence on vendors and governmental entities as we boost testing and get Georgians back into the workplace. Under the leadership of President Brooks Keel, CEO Katrina Keefer, Chief Medical Officer Dr. Philip Coule, General Carden, and Dr. Toomey, Augusta University will roll out this app statewide over the course of this week. My office will release more details and timelines soon.

"In addition, the Georgia National Guard will mobilize ten new strike teams to deploy to hotspots and long-term care facilities to administer 1,500 tests per day. Testing expansions through Augusta University and the Guard will complement existing initiatives, including the Department of Public Health’s capacity, Georgia Tech’s CVS testing site, and private labs. As I’ve said before, testing defines the battlefield and informs our long-term strategy. These efforts significantly increase our capacity as we take measured steps forward. Throughout this entire process from creating the Coronavirus Task Force to today, we have relied on data, science, and the advice of healthcare professionals to guide our approach and decision-making. We have been surgical, targeted, and methodical, always putting the health and well-being of our citizens first, and doing our best to protect lives – and livelihoods – in every part of Georgia.

"In the same way that we carefully closed businesses and urged operations to end to mitigate the virus’ spread, today, we are announcing plans to incrementally - and safely - reopen sectors of our economy. To help in the battle against COVID-19, healthcare facilities across Georgia voluntarily paused elective surgeries to reduce equipment and personnel shortages. This selfless act by healthcare leaders enhanced our ability to keep Georgians safe. However, many now find themselves in a difficult financial situation, some losing millions of dollars a day as they sacrifice for the greater good. This is not sustainable long-term for these facilities. Given the recent changes in modeling as it relates to surge capacity and national supply as the needs of other states diminish and following weeks of discussions with hospital leaders and medical providers, I believe Georgia is positioned to secure the necessary personal protective equipment for healthcare facilities to resume elective surgeries deemed essential.

"Hospitals should continue discussions in their regions to ensure that patient safety – and the safety of their workforce – is prioritized. I applaud all of the hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, doctors’ offices, dentists’ offices, physical therapists, and healthcare professionals that answered the call of duty and voluntarily closed their doors. It is impossible for me to adequately express my gratitude. And to all of the Georgians who waited on getting an important procedure to allow us to get on the other side of the curve, thank you. Your sacrifice saved lives.

"Given the favorable data, enhanced testing, and approval of our healthcare professionals, we will allow gyms, fitness centers, bowling alleys, body art studios, barbers, cosmetologists, hair designers, nail care artists, estheticians, their respective schools, and massage therapists to reopen their doors this Friday, April 24, 2020. Unlike other businesses, these entities have been unable to manage inventory, deal with payroll, and take care of administrative items while we shelter in place. This measure allows them to undertake baseline operations that most other businesses in the state have maintained since I issued the shelter-in-place order.

"This measure will apply statewide and will be the operational standard in all jurisdictions. This means local action cannot be taken that is more or less restrictive. Over the next few days, we will continue to closely monitor existing and potential hotspots in our state. I stay in regular contact with local leaders across Georgia, especially those in Dougherty County, to ensure that we are providing adequate support. Right now, in Albany and Dougherty County, we are starting to see improvements. I talk to Commission Chairman Chris Cohilas on a regular basis to see if further action is warranted. Rest assured, if any community needs the state to intervene, we will do so with their input and partnership.

"The next point is an important one. The entities that I am reopening are not reopening for 'business as usual.' Each of these entities will be subject to specific restrictions, including adherence to Minimum Basic Operations, social distancing, and regular sanitation. Minimum Basic Operations includes, but is not limited to, screening workers for fever and respiratory illness, enhancing workplace sanitation, wearing masks and gloves if appropriate, separating workspaces by at least six feet, teleworking where at all possible, and implementing staggered shifts.

"Subject to specific social distancing and sanitation mandates, theaters, private social clubs, and restaurant dine-in services will be allowed to reopen on Monday, April 27. We will release more information in the next few days. Bars, nightclubs, operators of amusement park rides, and live performance venues will remain closed. In the days ahead, we will be evaluating the data and conferring with public health officials to determine the best course of action for those establishments. By taking this measured action, we will get Georgians back to work safely without undermining the progress that we have all made in the battle against COVID-19.

"Today’s announcement is a small step forward and should be treated as such. The shelter in place order is still active and will expire at 11:59 PM on April 30 for most Georgians. We urge everyone to continue to follow CDC and DPH guidance by sheltering in place as often as you can. Limit your travel and limit who goes with you on errands to prevent potential exposure. If possible, wear face masks or cloth coverings when you are in public to slow the spread of coronavirus. For medically fragile and elderly Georgians, make plans to shelter in place at least through May 13 – the date Georgia’s Public Health Emergency expires. Given the heightened risk of adverse consequences from your exposure to coronavirus, this is the recommended – and safest – path forward.

We will release more details as we near the end of the month so medically fragile and elderly Georgians will have adequate time to prepare.

I continue to call on my fellow Georgians to protect our elderly, limit your direct contact, and help them navigate the weeks ahead. We’re helping my mom during this time to ensure that she doesn’t have to go out, and I urge Georgians to do the same for their loved ones if they’re able.

"Do what you can to help those in need. For places of worship, holding in-person services is allowed, but under Phase One guidelines, it must be done in accordance with strict social distancing protocols. I urge faith leaders to continue to help us in this effort and keep their congregations safe by heeding the advice of public health officials. Of course, online, call-in, or drive-in services remain good options for religious institutions.

"While I am encouraged by the data, proud of what we have accomplished, and confident of our plan moving forward, I know that the journey ahead is long. We must remain laser-focused on defeating this virus and keeping Georgians safe. We must find ways to revitalize communities devastated by COVID-19. We must identify opportunities for economic growth and prosperity.

"We will have tough conversations about the budget, state spending, and our priorities and values as a state. Those conversations are underway, and here’s what I know: if we remain united just as we have in this fight against COVID-19, we can overcome the challenges and obstacles ahead. But if we allow politics, partisanship, elections, and egos to divide us during this important inflection point, our entire state will suffer. So, as we begin this process – this measured, deliberate step forward – let’s reaffirm our commitment to each other, to the greater good, and to Georgia’s future.

"I am confident that together, we will emerge victorious from this war. With your help and God’s grace, we will build a safer, stronger, and more prosperous state for our families and generations to come. Thank you, and God Bless. Now, I’ll turn it over to Lieutenant Governor Duncan for brief remarks."

Gov. Kemp Updates Georgians on COVID-19 April 20, 2020

 

 Bonus Editor note:

Mr President you need to take a good look at what Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has done on April 20, 2020 and understand what REAL leadership looks like.

You should follow Governor Brian Kemp's example and use it as a template to open up ALL OF AMERICA NOW.

Get your head out of your butt, before we go into a complete depression and you loose the election because you allowed yourself to listen to those around you that are giving you bad advice about Georgia and the rest of America.

I still support you sir but like I said you need to learn fast from the Goovernor Of Georgia!

Like I said get your HEAD OUT OF YOUR BUTT SIR NOW!!!!!!

About the covid-19 antibody test





Editor Note:


Is the corona virus antibody test a good idea?

Is the  covid-19 antibody test accurate?

NO and NO.


A test that some believe could bring an end to the coronavirus lockdown is available in certain cities.

COVID-19 antibody tests are designed to let you know if you've been in contact with the virus in the past, and if your body has developed a possible immunity to it.

Across the world, there's hope that this kind of testing could reopen society and send millions of people back to work with 'immunity badges'.

ARCpoint Labs offers a blood test for COVID-19 antibodies. Its $75.00 and a waste of time.

WHY?

"It tests for the two antibodies which are the response to the COVID-19 virus," said Scott Lambert, president of ARCpoint Labs St. Louis West.

Those antibodies could provide a level of immunity.

"If it acts like other viruses similar to COVID-19, you would typically expect a level of immunity of six months to a year," said Lambert.


Note these 2 key words, "could" and "if".


More than 70 companies are selling these tests now that the FDA has waived its initial review process due to the pandemic.

"It's a little bit concerning to me," said Dr. Alex Garza, Commander of the St. Louis Metropolitan Pandemic Task Force. "You really have to be confident in the accuracy of the test. The only way to do that is to validate it in some place like our lab."


"What we're finding is that everyone wants to make good decisions. There's just no data to help them do it," said Lambert.

Yet, Lambert says the test does have limitations.

HERE IS WHY THE ARC LABS COVID-19 TEST IS USELESS!!!!

"The antibody tests are not able to distinguish whether the antibodies were generated in response to COVID-19 or several other non-SARS-COV-2 coronavirus strains such as HKU1, NL63, OC43 or 229E," said Lambert.

He explains that information is part of the disclaimer element on the Guidelines form patients receive.

_________________________________

* Important Information  ARC LABS DISCLAIMER *

The Antibody test is a serology test which measures the amount of antibodies or proteins present in the blood when the body is responding to a specific infection.

This test hasn’t been reviewed by the FDA.

Negative results don’t rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly in those who have been in contact with the virus.

Follow-up testing with a molecular diagnostic lab should be considered to rule out infection in these individuals.

The second serological test will also not be conclusive, see information below about Serological tests.


Results from antibody testing shouldn’t be used as the sole basis to diagnose or exclude SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Positive results may be due to past or present infection with non-SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus strains, such as coronavirus HKU1, NL63, OC43, or 229E.

While the presence of antibodies doesn't necessarily prevent future infections, they can reduce the severity of future infections of the current COVID-19 strain.


______________________________



Some doctors  worry that since the test is not able to look for Covid-19 antibodies specifically, there could have been several subtypes of coronavirus in circulation which some people may have been exposed too already.

That could give people a false sense of security.

ARCpoint's medical staff says that the presence of the antibodies from another stain may provide a level of protection from the Covid-19 virus.

Here are 2 more key words , "could" and "may".

There are a few types of positive results. You can have one of the antibodies, IgM, which may indicate you're still battling the virus and still contagious.

If you only test positive for the IgG antibody, that could indicate you're over the infection. If you test positive for both IgM and IgG, it is likely you are in the middle stage of infection.

Here again is the word "may".

Here again is the word "if".

Here is another ambiguous  word "likely".


am•big•u•ous ăm-bÄ­g′yoo͞-É™s

  • adj.
    Open to more than one interpretation.
  • adj.
    Doubtful or uncertain.
  • Of doubtful or uncertain nature; wanting clearness or definiteness; difficult to comprehend or distinguish; indistinct; obscure.



So to recap information about the arc labs antibody test for corona virus:

If you get the test the results may, if, likely or could be of some use but don't rely on the $75.00 test because the results are only AMBIGUOUS - doubtful or uncertain or indistinct or obscure.

IN OTHER WORDS   The arc lab corona virus antibody test is TOTALLY USELESS!!!!!

What is uselful is this:

If you have had the covid-19 virus and know for sure you have had it you have built up antibodies to the covid-19 virus.

Additional information.


Serological tests measure the amount of antibodies or proteins present in the blood when the body is responding to a specific infection, like COVID-19.

In other words, the test detects the body’s immune response to the infection caused by the virus rather than detecting the virus itself.

In the early days of an infection when the body’s immune response is still building, antibodies may not be detected.

Here we go again with the key word, "may".

This limits the test’s effectiveness for diagnosing COVID-19 and why it should not be used as the sole basis to diagnose COVID-19.

serological tests for corona virus


Serological tests can play a critical role in the fight against COVID-19 by helping healthcare professionals to identify individuals who have overcome an infection in the past and have developed an immune response.

In the future, this may potentially be used to help determine, together with other clinical data, that such individuals are no longer susceptible to infection and can return to work.

In addition, these test results can aid in determining who may donate a part of their blood called convalescent plasma, which may serve as a possible treatment for those who are seriously ill from COVID-19.

This is why Vice President Mike Pence called on the laboratory community to develop serological tests for COVID-19.

Here are other  AMBIGUOUS words:

"may", "potentially", "possible".

Americans don't trust test results that may potentially or possibly could be of some use etc etc!!!


The FDA isn't helping anything by allowing tests that are UNCERTIFIED!

In March, the FDA issued a policy to allow developers of certain serological tests to begin to market or use their tests once they have performed the appropriate evaluation to determine that their tests are accurate and reliable.

This includes allowing developers to market their tests without prior FDA review if certain conditions outlined in the guidance document are met. The FDA issued this policy to allow early patient access to certain serological tests with the understanding that the FDA has not reviewed and authorized them.

The FDA can also authorize tests for COVID-19 under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). To date, FDA has authorized one EUA for a serological test that is intended for use by clinical laboratories.

Since the FDA issued the policy, over 70 test developers have notified the agency that they have serological tests available for use.

However, some firms are falsely claiming that their serological tests are FDA approved or authorized, or falsely claiming that they can diagnose COVID-19.

The FDA will take appropriate action against firms making false claims or marketing tests that are not accurate and reliable.

Here is another AMBIGUOUS word, "will".


So what does a person do?

If you have an immune system that is not in good condition you need to limit exposure to other people!
 
If you have a healthy immune system and no other underlying health risks you can go out in public and be exposed to potentially, here is another ambiguous word, the corona virus.

If you are healthy and no underlying health conditions don't be afraid to get the corona virus.

Your most likely going to get it anyway.

The younger you are and the better your immune system is the more likely you will have mild corona virus symptoms!

GO OUT AND ENJOY LIFE IF YOU FIT THIS PROFILE!!!!!
