    Where’s the part in the vid that talks about America and our progress towards spreading the virus and not giving a damn?

      Some people just stock up on everything Lysol I heard worked best to kill this and lots of sun light. i will always water mask when I go out but when this is over in the winter get less flu.

    90% of deaths are in people over 65. Only 1% of deaths are under 45. Most people who catch it have zero or only mild symptoms. This is NOT a deadly virus. It only kills very old and immunocompromised people. Normal, healthy people have nothing to fear. Lockdown is a foolish overreaction.

      Agreed, but how geared-up are we to cope up incase our loved ones or a neighborhood gets infected? It’s good to stay positive but in reality it’s otherwise

    Judging the way people eat , at least in America with a steady diet of coca cola, mountain dew, Beer, McDonalds and Frozen pizzas, no wonder there is pandemics and health problems. People have no immune systems to fight off anything. Nobody seems to notice this angle.

    The dude looked taken aback by the “bar virus” question. He was like… omg why would you ask such a stupid wuestion

    From this video, I learned that our antibodies don’t necessarily “attack” a virus, they simply “occupy” its time. Our antibodies are like little “decoys” for the virus to fulfill its mission with.
    It makes sense that the randomness of DNA mutations would eventually make a self-replicating strand, of course that’s why we see it today. All the other permutations failed, so we’re not affected by them today. Eureka! Thank you again, CNET

    How can anyone “report” on covid-19 and not talk about how many times the medical community has gotten it wrong or lied to the public? Face-mask not needed, face-mask needed. How is the false reporting of covid cases not exposed to everyone? Why aren’t whistle-blowers encouraged to come forth with evidence (like all the nurses reporting shocking evidence). How does anyone discuss a virus that is laughed at by the vast majority of immune systems and not discuss the importance of strengthening immune systems?
    There is a blatant conflict of interest between western style medicine (who make money from a new virus) and the *real solution* to new viruses like covid-19; that is, getting people more healthy and strengthening immune systems. About 85% of people who get covid-19 don’t even realize it. There is a death rate similar to influenza. For the love of Christ, what is with the *extreme* over-reaction?
    Let’s make the real solution the primary topic of discussion; the strengthening immune systems everywhere.
    BTW, I’m not going near a covid-19 vaccine; especially one that is rushed through the process. If something in a new vaccine is “off” and not realized for a long period of time, can you imagine the mass catastrophe possible. No thank you.

      A vaccine approval is a long task and has to pass numerous tests. You are 99% sure it will work if approved

      If you have any conditions that are bad it could kill you by this time next year we most likley come out of this take vitamin D.

    This video is pure propaganda and junk science. Our best defense is our immune system, that have to be boosted through proper feeding (including plenty of fruits and vegetables), exercise in open air and proper rest. The technology did not help finding vaccines for HIV *that is lingering for over 40 years), and not even for the common cold, while the flu vaccine has a remarcable hit / miss ratio.

    Drink turmeric milk at night
    Take steam
    Gargle with lukewarm salt water
    Eat boiled eggs
    Lemon honey juice
    And whole foods
    It helps in recovery
    My aunt had the covid 18 days ago
    She was positive
    She was admitted
    And these were the foods she consumed
    Along with the 3 tablets given to her by doctors
    In 8 days she recovered fully and brought home
    NOTE: she also had existing health conditions that is DIABETES

    The Folding@Home worldwide distributed computer is now the fastest supercomputer in the world, not the IBM supercomputer mentioned in this video. It is an exaFLOP computer. It now has 5 times as many people running Folding on their computer(s) as before the COVID-19 outbreak. It can utilize PC graphics cards for truly stunning performance on individual PCs. People running Folding can select to only run COVID-19 protein simulations on their computers.

    It’s really eerie looking back at those newspaper clippings from the Mutter Museum and realising how similar they are to the headlines we’ve seen about this 2020 pandemic. But it’s also so remarkable that, unlike 100 years ago, we are using supercomputers to fight the coronavirus and we may be able to transfer immunity. THAT is what excites me the most…

    In fact, the first vaccines may start human trials as early as August-September. And it could expand worldwide by the end of 2020.

    I love how Claire Reilly is flexing her talent muscles in a new way. Claire speaks in a plain relatable way, representing the average person and explains the pandemic in an uncomplicated way. I haven’t seen this much reference to the 1918 pandemic from others. Thank you, Claire. Please, stay healthy!

    Why can’t you call the 1918 pandemic the Spanish Flu????
