    I trust local guys who appear on local sports radio less than almost all other sources. With exception of the University of Minnesota epidemiologist.
    I wouldn't pin my hopes to it, either. The doc was basically saying it was a "here goes nothing" approach if one decided to try it.
    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

      Yeah, and that’s bad advice until there’s any evidence of it working

        But, would it HARM the patient? If not, then why not try it? It's like playing sports with a "major contusion." Again, not pinning any hopes, but at this point, worth a shot.

            Note in the article: "overdoses." That's a very important word.

                Lol. The rich are ****ing themselves and their communities. Likely spreading the virus even further.
                I live on an island with a sizable population of rich summer people (like 8000 square foot “cottages” they spend a month or two a year in). These people are coming up from New York. Our hospital is tiny and just had its first positive diagnosis.

                  No whoosh.

                  I have a Monster energy drink every morning in lieu of coffee. If I have 5 of those, that is NOT good. That's the angle I'm coming from.

                    All those should be hail marys until there is scientific evidence that it actually works.

                      And that was what I was saying that the doctor said. If it doesn't harm the patient, but it might help, give it a try.

Finally, instead of being a 'lone voice calling out in the darkness' and begging people to be serious the narrative has shifted to almost all people doing what will help. They might argue about the science but the social pressure is in the right direction.

                        Over the last few weeks I have been so grateful for these threads as a little puddle of sanity, where people 'get it' and understand what we are in for. It is a very lonely place to have everyone telling you that you're seeding panic, over reacting, challenging facts for [fill in the blank], etc.

                        So. Thanks, folks. You are the bees knees!

                        Plus these threads are gold. So many different walks of life, jobs, etc makes it well rounded.
                        Thank you for your posts.

                        You are the bees knees, I believe.

                              In fairness we've got more people than all but what, 3 or 4 countries in the world? Id expect us to pass all European countries in absolute terms even if were handled this competently.

                              The per capita rates are what matters.

                                Bingo.

                                As with the increased cases. I bet if we were able to test everyone in America...that rate would skyrocket even more than it has been. It's not necessarily NEW cases, it's just cases we've found out about, if you get my drift.
