@Madamski : Thank You, Sister.
I have found a Bill Gates CNN interview video that is not Twitter here: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/bill-gates-on-the-next-few-months-of-the-coronavirus-pandemic-its-bad-news-11607893787
I admit I had not watched it, but now I have. My read of Mr Bill is that he should not play high stakes poker.
He is very pleased with himself numerous times in the interview, with a huge smile that he actually tries to suppress a few times to look appropriately serious. He always smiles when speaking glowingly of his own prior predictions, now come true, and the efforts of his foundation and their allies, and of the failures of the Trump Administration. He is very careful in choosing his words to give them no credit at all. He speaks glowingly of Biden and Fauci and all the big vaccines, and says he will take his shot in public, only when his turn comes. He implies this is a massive, life-saving good, and he wants to be in the same line as the common people. He says things will not be back to normal until 2022, but implies they may be better next summer. Nothing about vitamin-D, though his comments seem to imply that he is taking it into account, summer, and winter, and all.
Again, Gates reads like a fairly open-faced book if you know where he has been coming from for the last 15 years. I read something telling by him, about 15 years ago. He was fascinated with vaccines, including vaccines as birth control. Now he does not say that.

@ Mr House: Nobody who is not in the God-play-group likes people who play god.
It’s a clear threat.
Bill Gates wants to play a very clever god, a smug and pleasant god, who deeply loves himself and invites all of us to do the same. It will be best for all of us.
His obvious point would be that the least painful form of population reduction is birth-reduction.
It’s less bad than war, pestilence, famine and death, but it does not exclude them.

What might I suggest as a counter-offer?
I don’t play god. I don’t eat critters, because I practice non-violence.
I am not a tyrant. I think that we should be past massive slaughter as a means of population control. We are technologically and intellectually able to leave it behind, but we have not yet fully found the societal disposition to leave it behind, not exactly.
What I suggest is our human strong point, distributed problem solving in small groups. Nothing is assured, but it is what we, as a species, do best, and it is what has brought us to the point where we are about to extinct ourselves from success.
Going forward, we will have the already-begun severe and permanent decline in global oil, natural gas and coal, especially the cheap, easy and high quality stuff that the permanent-growth economy needs.
The change in direction has already taken place, but it has been mislabeled as COVID Pandemic.
COVID has destroyed “demand” for the fuel and products that are now in decline, but we do not have to think they are in permanent decline. “Back-to-normal” just keep getting put off until later, while our owners work things out in THEIR smallish groups.
The Davos-crowd, World Economic Forum clan may be as smug and self-satisfied as Mr Gates looks in the video, though it is going less-according-to-plan for many of them. At least they foresee destruction of their nationalist rivals, so they can work out one, big, good solution for all of humanity, and put it into action. It’s a work in progress, but they and their best experts are on it, all over it.
I must disclose that what I advocate is not laid out at all, but the potential strength of it lies in customizing adaptation by specific locations and cultures and groups, like towns and churches and employee-owned -enterprises, for instance. Just everybody does homework in small groups for 30 years. That’s my suggestion.
I’m doing my homework. My health remains good at 62.
The supply lines are breaking globally. Merry Christmas. More and more things are out of stock. Noticed that?
It’s time to invest, not to consume. Invest in what you need to survive, not in New York (if I may be so bold) or Phoenix (I’m now aware of your situation, Sister) , not in an isolated bunker, somewhere.
Risks involve a lot of uncertainty, and an ideal situation in 2-3 years might be terrible in 12-13 years.
We are renting a little half duplex from my Mom, in Austin, where we both work. The weather here won’t kill you, even without utilities. We have paid off the gardening “homestead” in Yoakum, population 6000, with a rail line, and agricultural and oil mixed economy. Oil is shot now. Eagleford shale fracking went black. That’s ok for the moment. What’s next? It’s a 2 hour drive each way. We spend weekends working there, and weekdays working our paid jobs. When will we have to choose one or the other?
The country used a lot less gasoline in the 1970s, and a lot less of everything else.
Recall gas lines?
When will supply-destruction become apparent? With supply destruction as a limiter, you can’t buy what you need, and prices shoot up into hyperinflation. They sure will this time.
Stagflation again; hyper-stag-flation…
Can you learn to grow some of your food. Mainly, it gives you a comprehension of how difficult and uncertain it is, but you also develop skills and expertise. Perspective. Working-knowledge.
Look to how you might survive for a month if the utilities go out. Grocery store utilities will be out, too.
Gas pumps need electricity. Utilities need electricity. Phone systems need electricity.
I’m not being extreme.
The God-play-group will have to sacrifice billions of us, somewhat arbitrarily, I foresee.
The birth-control-surprise cannot work fast enough to deal with the absolute decline that factory farming go though in 10-20 years. You may think my timeline is wrong. It might be. Some failures are bound to come sooner.
Preparing some, physically preparing as much as you can, not just thinking, is better than not preparing.
Do have a sensible, multi-purpose bike, and some spare tunes, tires, grease and tools.
Ride it at least every other day.

“Pathogenic Priming” is that good thing I have mentioned several times, which happens when a vaccine induces an antibody response which inadvertently makes you sick or kills you when the infectious agent enters the body, and the immune response is activated.
It’s usually detected in animal trials.
This was the problem with all the coronavirus vaccine attempts after SARS. Lab animals died when the vaccine was “successful”.
Pfizer COVID Vaccine Trial Shows Alarming Evidence of Pathogenic Priming in Older Adults

Pfizer COVID Vaccine Trial Shows Alarming Evidence of Pathogenic Priming in Older Adults

​ Another funny thing can happen with 2-dose vaccines, which is what Astra-Zeneca/Oxford discovered when half of a first dose worked better than a whole first dose. What happened was that the immunity induced by the first full dose was directed against the viral vector, meant to enter the human cell and deliver the genetic material. So, the viral vector got destroyed pronto, and the second dose never did mch. When the first dose was accidentally halved in one arm of the trial, it worked better. Russia can help, by letting Astra-Zeneca give one dose of Sputnik-V vaccine, which uses a different viral vector, so the full dose enters cells each time.
That’s science for ya’. Never know what will turn up in carefully run experiments. Gotta’ double and triple check for problems. Takes years.
Both AZ and Russian vaccines are cheap-for-the-world and very similar.​( I’ve got vitamin-D, and ivermectin ready, so not rushed.)

Hydroxychloroquine , zinc and azithromycin was the best combination going in the spring, and was widely used, and people taking Hcq chronically had a very low incidence from COVID, and rare mortality.
Ivermectin seems to be much netter, as information has come in since late spring and early summer, all very favorable.

Georgia Governor, Brian Kemp did not attend the Trump rally after his 19 year old daughter’s 20 year old boyfriend was killed in a fiery inferno right after his car crashed Friday 12/4/20.

Back when I had to hitchhike an hour to work and back near Ft. Hood, Tx in the summer of 1977 I got a fair number of rides from “gay” GIs on the make. I was 19. I put up with a lot of sweet talking, and moved fondling hands away, to get to work. Nothing overtly criminal happened, and it never came to a fight.
I was relieved to get fired for smoking a joint and moved back to Austin, to a different learning opportunity, then college again in the fall.

​SPUTNIK again: (Uh, I read it is the legislature, not the Governor who decides on the electors…)
​ The US president called on the governor to convene a special session of the state legislature after Georgia’s Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger refused to conduct a signature audit of the ballots.
Georgia’s governor, Republican Brian Kemp, has warned state lawmakers that they will not be gathering for a special session to pick the electors who will vote in the upcoming Electoral College for the next US president. Kemp said that such a scenario, which could be undertaken if the ballot-counting results can’t be certified or if the accuracy of the counting is questioned, was “not an option” for Georgia.
https://sputniknews.com/us-elections-2020-news/202012091081410218-georgias-republican-governor-tells-lawmakers-they-wont-be-picking-electors-for-trump/

Sen. Ron Johnson is not ruling out the possibility of challenging the Electoral College results in January when Congress is slated to certify the vote.
“I would say it depends on what we found out,” the Wisconsin Republican said to reporters when he was asked about whether he plans on challenging election results, according to The Hill. “The American people need more information. I’m not ready to just close and slam the book on this thing and go ‘OK, let’s walk away from it.'”​ …​
​ ​“Today I gave notice for a hearing for next Wednesday titled ‘Examining Irregularities in the 2020 election,’” the senator said in a statement. “I am mindful that many of the issues that have been raised have been, and will continue to be, appropriately resolved in the courts. But the fact remains that a large percentage of the American public does not view the 2020 election result as legitimate because of apparent irregularities that have not been fully examined. That is not a sustainable state of affairs for our country. The only way to resolve suspicions is with full transparency and public awareness. That will be the goal of the hearing.”

Sidney Powell: CIA, mainstream media, globalists all part of a grand conspiracy to rig elections and defraud We the People
​ ​It’s saddening to know that American elections have been just as rigged as elections in third world countries have been. I’m sure the CIA has been involved in any number of those activities. If not here and other places around the world, it may have been the CIA that created this software and programs to begin with, and then exported them for their own use, only to have it come back to us. It could be that very important, powerful, extremely wealthy people were involved in rigging this election. It’s globalist interests.

Now we learn that not only does the FBI have more than 20,000 pages relevant to the search term, “Seth Rich,” the FBI still has Seth Rich’s laptop computer.

The FBI collects and retains evidence of federal crimes. It also has responsibility for counterintelligence matters. I can understand the FBI collecting Seth Rich’s computer as possible evidence after he was murdered. It would have been entirely appropriate to investigate whether or not Rich was in contact with Wikileaks. The FBI only retains evidence on an active, open case.

But the FBI has insisted for more than four years that it was never involved actively in the investigation of Seth Rich’s murder and that it never opened a case. That lie is now exposed.

Vitamin-D Christmas https://www.johndayblog.com/2020/12/vitamin-d-christmas.html

Firstly, two of my close family members are much improved from COVID today, on ivermectin, zinc and doxycycline treatment.
Secondly, people need to be people, and part of that is getting together to maintain the bonds of kinship at Thanksgiving and Christmas.
This is human identity, not an optional consumer choice. This is core human life.

So far this year I bought over $500 worth of vitamin-D in 5000 unit (125 microgram) dosage and gave it away.
It may have been a lot more than $500. I didn’t keep track.
There was an outbreak of 6 cases among staff at Jenny’s school recently.
She gave away $120 worth of vitamin-D and I prescribed ivermectin, zinc and doxycycline for 3 people as a favor.

Yesterday morning I ordered #200 bottles of #100 capsules each of 5000 unit vitamin-D for $670 to give to anybody and everybody by Christmas.
I gave a bottle to a panhandler I often donate to yesterday morning on my bike commute to work,
I gave another bottle to a school crossing guard who waves at me.
I explained to both guys why to take it every day. I’m out now.
The new vitamin-D should come in next Monday or Tuesday.

It’s a small study, but it helps define vitamin-D dose for hospital inpatients, or anybody who needs to get vitamin-D levels up quickly. 60,000 units per day is 12 of the 5000 unit pills of vitamin D3 that we can buy at the store. That’s the daily dose for about 2 weeks. Most people got into the mid-normal range on this dose and nobody’s level went above the normal range. The people who got vitamin-D cleared the virus sooner, based on repeat testing. Thanks to commenter “Amazed”.

Pierre Kory is a critical care pulmonologist who is completely sick of people dying slowly in his ICUs, because they did not get early treatment for COVID before their lungs and other organs failed.
He is part of Professor Paul Marik MDs large group of academic physicians, “not a politician”, as he has to defend himself.
He points out that no CDC money has gone into investigating existing drugs to treat COVID, only vaccines and novel patented creations like remdesivir, things that will make profits, if we wait long enough.
The data in favor of ivermectin treatment of COVID, prophylactically, and at every stage of illness, is powerful and of high quality. It is ignored by the CDC. (Why?)

​Alan Dershowitz is evil pedo-island scum, but he is a live-player.
​Attorney Alan Dershowitz said on Sunday that he believes the Supreme Court may get involved in adjudicating on whether state legislators have the power to pick alternate Electoral College electors who would vote for President Donald Trump if legislatures determine there was voter fraud, even after an initial slate of electors has cast its votes on Dec. 14.
“The unanswered constitutional question is do they have the powers—state legislatures—to pick electors after the voters vote if they conclude that the voters’ count has been in some way been fraudulent or wrong?”
“That is a constitutional question we don’t know the answer to, and the Supreme Court may get to decide that question if a state legislature decides to determine who the electors should be and changes the electors from Biden to Trump – that will be the key constitutional question,” Dershowitz said.

Chief Medical Officer Says Canadians Who Refuse Vaccine Won’t Have “Freedom to Move Around”
Williams acknowledged that “we can’t force someone to take a vaccine,” but when on to explain how people who didn’t take it would have their freedom of mobility severely restricted.
“What we can do is to say sometimes for access or ease of getting into certain settings, if you don’t have vaccination then you’re not allowed into that setting without other protection materials,” said Williams.

Chief Medical Officer Says Canadians Who Refuse Vaccine Won’t Have “Freedom to Move Around”

This is a remarkably intelligent and even-handed look at western political economy since the late 1800s, but the conclusion makes a point.
The COVID-19 pandemic has upset the earlier uneasy coexistence of accepted “truth” and the occasional revolts against it. What was considered a radical economic populist agenda just six months ago has won: Budget constraints are ignored or even not deemed to be constraints anymore. Economies have slowed dramatically due to lockdowns and fear of illness, and the state is now expected to revive them using state funding, debt creation, and welfare programs. Central banks have embarked again on large-scale money creation to push the economy over the deflationary precipice and avoid collapse.
Despite the unprecedented scale of state intervention, the recovery from the novel coronavirus lockdowns is slow and partial. Immense difficulties lie ahead. No wonder, then, that the cultural-political differences have become even more vicious. Nonetheless, we are nowhere near an explosion comparable to the interwar years. This is not 1933. Rather, we are in the fateful last years of the belle epoque, the underlying contradictions of which led to an unexpected eruption of the Great War in 1914. This situation bears an uncanny resemblance to the world described by Thomas Mann in The Magic Mountain—an impending sense of doom, of the end days, combined with an epidemic.
Just as then, we have three major sources of conflict. First, an underlying Great Power competition between China and the US. Second, the unsustainability of the mixed economy in the context of the large increases in debt and aging populations.

A Loss of Direction and the Rise of Populisms

Ellen Brown, Why The Fed Needs Public Banks (Well, the public needs them more…)
The reason the Fed is not well suited to the task is that it is not allowed to make loans directly to Main Street businesses. It must rely on banks to do it, and private banks are currently unable or unwilling to make those loans as needed. But publicly-owned banks would. Several promising public bank bills were recently introduced in Congress that could help resolve this crisis.

What is “winter”? It is not just colder weather, inducing people to stay inside, in unventilated rooms, together. Winter is also (northern hemisphere) the time of minimal solar exposure to human skin, so minimal vitamin-D. Vitamin D is critical for normal immune function, and it is slow to build and slow to decline in human bodies, lagging sun exposure by something like 6 weeks (my educated guess).
Take vitamin-D 5000 units per day. Double that for 1-2 months if you are just starting.

“It’s the vitamin-D, stupid​!​”​ (Take 5000 units per day long term if you weigh over 100#. Double that dose for a couple of months if just starting.)​
Conclusions The previous studies, reporting a vitamin D blood level impact, compared COVID-19 severity between different patients populations and so can hardly discriminate whether the vitamin D blood level is a real factor of covid-19 severity or only a marker of another weakness being the primary severity factor. In contrary, the date of the boost is an intrapopulation observation and can thus only be triggered by a parameter globally affecting the population, i.e. the sun UV daily dose decreases. This result evidences that low vitamin blood D level is a contributing factor of COVID-19 severity.

​ ​Former national security adviser Michael Flynn promoted a petition Tuesday calling on President Donald Trump to temporarily suspend the U.S. Constitution, declare martial law and order the military to oversee a national re-vote for the 2020 presidential election. The petition, published Tuesday by the Ohio-based non-profit group We The People Convention, said there was “no peaceful way left to preserve our Union” following President-elect Joe Biden’s electoral victory and urged Trump to exercise his “extraordinary authority” to avert a second civil war.
“Limited Martial Law is clearly a better option than Civil War!” a letter accompanying the petition states.

​ ​But even though big Army and U.S. Army Special Operations Command have told Military Times that there was no such attack, or loss of life, retired Air Force Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney is sticking by his claims. They became so widely distributed on social media that numerous accounts on Twitter falsely claimed that five soldiers killed in a Sinai helicopter crash were really killed in the firefight with the CIA.

Michael Flynn endorses martial law and national re-vote for president

​This is not yet confirmed, but holds with Trump’s talk the other night, “most important ever”.
​According to multiple senior administration officials, the president intends to invoke the “tremendous powers” of the act to remove illegal immigrants from the country.
The Insurrection Act, passed by Congress in 1807, allows the president to deploy National Guard and U.S. military troops to combat “rebellion” against the United States of America. The Act has been invoked by other presidents to quell violent uprisings such as the L.A. Riots.

Vitamin-D is useful… silence…

I have been trying for 3 weeks to get the lab we send SARS-CoV-2 tests out to to give us information about their cycle thresholds, and if we can request a certain threshold, like 25 PCR amplification cycles…
crickets…

The big issue with any new vaccine is that we do not know the human cost to benefit ratio yet. From what I see so far, there are some nasty side effects and not much benefit, no reduction in hospitalizations, in healthy young people, those who are not much at risk, to begin with.
This looks like an expensive way to get side effects. See how Obama does…
Wait a year. Choose the lesser poison…

Thanks for the reply, Dr D,
As much as I agree that the everything fraud is important, i think that a war between CIA and DIA is significant. Warring warlords are important.
Is it real?
Gmail still won’t let my send the bcc to 180 folks who usually get it. The last time it did this to me was when I tried to send the first story I found about Frankfurt last week.
Google’s AI doesn’t like the Dark Winter story, either.
I still keep gmail, because I’m my own censorship litmus test while I do, and we were original beta-testers for it, almost 16 years ago.

[John Day]

Regarding with problems testing for SARS-CoV-2…
There are so many problems and they keep changing.
People have a binary-choice mentality, so a test with a sliding false-positivity rate, and a false-negative tendency if the specimen is collected wrong will be treated as a positive or a negative.
In July, in Austin, we had up to a 15 day delay in test results. That is a huge problem with testing.
Our public health clinic bought an expensive Abbot machine to run rapid test, almost a month ago, test kits to follow… but there are no test kits for us, none, a $250k Ferrari and no gasoline.
If we had the test kits, we would have rapid results with a low false positive rate, and a lowish sensitivity, which happen to pick up the level of viral antigen that infectious noses have.
Again, I’ll assert that they don’t want us to deal with this, because we need to be frustrated and distracted while they (our owners) work their problems out, so we can all move forward into the global reset. When they ship everybody therapeutic doses of vitamin-D, I’ll know they have come to an agreement of some kind.

​Samo Burja has a revised manuscript posted of his Great Founder Theory o​f human institutions. Institutions are how we get most big projects done, and the effective ones are designed by their founder to accomplish specific tasks, and to stay on task despite individual humans being what they are, A few of these actually manage to stay on task after the Great Founder passes away, though it is rare for that to actually persist for long.
American representative government was a really strong and sustained effort to create an enduring institution, and it’s founders had no delusions about the long term prospects of their combined efforts.

More related rumor (Recall that General Michael Flynn was Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, not too long ago.)
​ ​For the first time since being pardoned by President Donald Trump, Gen. Michael Flynn sat down for an interview to discuss how America is going through “a crucible of history.” Joining the conversation was Gen. Thomas McInerney, who dropped the bombshell that Trump, if he is to abide by the oath he swore, has no choice but to refuse concession to Joe Biden in this fraudulent election…
​ ​According to Gen. McInerney, Barack Obama is the ringleader behind the HAMMER and Scorecard cyber weapons that were used against the United States to thwart the election against Trump. The program itself was developed by former CIA analyst Denis Montgomery.
​ ​These two and many other deep state coup coordinators also recruited the entire U.S. media, including Fox News, to participate in this attempted overthrow of the Republic and our Constitution. All of them, along with Big Tech, participated in the sham election narrative declaring Trump to be the “loser,” and Biden the “winner.”
​ ​Even though the Electoral College is schedule to meet on Dec. 14 to vote in accordance with state certifications, this is moot, according to Gen. McInerney. Trump has no obligation to leave the White House until every last fact surrounding election theft is analyzed and dealt with, including the vote count anomalies that were “caused by fraudulent electronic manipulation of targeted voting machines.”
​ ​The fact that five of the biggest battleground states all stopped counting ballots at roughly the same time on election night is also something that needs to be addressed because this is when HAMMER and Scorecard, along with Dominion Voting Systems, launched their mathematically impossibly algorithms to skew the count for Biden.

​The Digital Iron Curtain Descends, Alastair Crooke
​ ​What is a ‘digital Iron Curtain’? It is when Big Digital, as Professor Michael Rectenwald terms these western Tech Goliaths, become ‘governmentalities’, using a word originally coined by Michel Foucault to refer to the means by which the ‘governed’ (i.e. ‘we the people’) assimilate, and reflect outwardly, a mental attitude desired by the élites: “One might point to masking and social distancing as instances of what Foucault meant by his notion of governmentality”, Rectenwald suggests.
​ ​And what is that desired ‘mentality’? It is to embrace the transfiguration of American and European identity and way-of-life. The presumptive U.S. President Elect, the European élites, and top ‘woke’ élites moreover, are publicly committed to such “transformation”: “Now we take Georgia, then we change the world,” (Chuck Schumer, Senate Minority Leader, declared, celebrating Joe Biden’s ‘victory’)​…
​ With the advent of Silicon Valley ideology’s ubiquitous ‘reach’, the diktat can be achieved through weaponising ‘Truth’ via AI, to achieve a ‘machine learning fairness’ that reflects only the values of the coming revolution – and through AI ‘learning’ mounting that version of binary ‘truth’, up and against an adversarial ‘non-truth’ (its polar opposite). How this inter-penetration came about is through a mix of early CIA start-up funding; connections and contracts with state agencies, particularly relating to defence; and in support for propaganda campaigns in service to ‘governmentalist’ narratives.
​ ​These U.S. Tech platforms have, for some time, become effectively fused into the ‘Blue State’ – particularly in the realms of intelligence and defence – to the extent that these CEOs no longer see themselves as state ‘partners’ or contractors, but rather, as some higher élite leadership, precisely shaping and directing the future of the U.S. Their objective however, is to advance beyond the American ‘sphere’, to a notion that such an élite oligarchy eventually would be directing a future ‘planetary governance’.

That worked. I’ll try the stuff I posted already about the weird NSA vs CIA battle.

All I could find this morning about this rumor was a 26 minute podcast talk show, which is all hearsay, and ploddingly slow, but I did other internet searches while it played. It asserts that Army Special Forces raided a CIA-held Dominion voting server in Frankfurt, Germany, killing one CIA contractor, whose death was then transposed to Somalia. Multiple Special Forces commandos died, and their deaths were transposed to a chopper crash in the Sinai. It also asserts that Gina Haspel was at the server site, was superficially wounded, was arrested and taken to Guantanamo, and has copped a plea in return for cooperating. That’s most of it. You can listen if you want. It plods. It’s the rumor.

RT (Russian) has this story, and there are many more stories about nuts-and-bolts ballot stuffing voter fraud at the state and local levels.
Arizona State House Representative Mark Finchem said on Monday he had seen enough evidence (witnesses to “truckloads of ballots all week”) at the impromptu hearings he had chaired into allegations by President Donald Trump’s campaign team of electoral fraud, and that the Republican majority in the state legislature should not appoint electors for Democratic candidate Joe Biden.
“We are clawing our electoral college votes back, we will not release them,” Finchem said. “That’s what I’m calling our colleagues in both the House and the Senate to do, exercise our plenary authority under the U.S. Constitution.”

This paper asserts that almost 90% of morbidity and mortality from COVID-19 may be due to vitamin-D deficiency. Thanks Ilargi.
https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/12/12/3642/htm

Taking 5000 units per day vitamin D3 is a good baseline. If you have never taken it, then taking twice that much per day for 2 months is a good idea to get your level up into the normal range. If you weigh over 100 kg, you could even take 3 X 5000 units per day for a couple of months. It is diffused into fat. 40,000 units is equal to 1 little milligram of vitamin D. 400 units (USRDA) is indistinguishable from nothing.

SARS-CoV-2 infection begins in the nasopharynx, and most people, about 80%, especially young, healthy people, contain it there, with the innate immune system.
I’m not sure if it can/does cause fever when only in the nasopharynx. I am inclined to consider fever a sign that it has gotten into the system, like lungs, gut and bloodstream.

Once the virus is in the systemic circulation it does unique things, especially where ACE-2 receptors are expressed. It binds to these (and also cholesterol receptors, but weaker), gains entry to cells and begins replicating. This virus can heavily infect cells without destroying them, very heavily and this is unusual. It also suppresses the cellular expression of marker protein that guide the immune system to destroy infected cells. HIV does this same trick.

ACE-2 receptors are expressed in respiratory mucosa and epithelium, arteries and arterioles, in the gut, and in heart muscle cells, cardiomyocytes, where there is evidence that it can induce permanent changes that make cellular contraction quite dysfunctional. These are permanent cells, like brain cells. They are not replaceable.

Some people of any age get long term fatigue, aches, weakness and shortness of breath on exertion, even after fairly mild illness. Nobody wants to be in this group. This has made me have a lower threshold for treating with antivirals.
I feel like any patient with a fever, lung or gut symptoms who wants treatment will get it prescribed from me.

There has been a good case for treatment with hydroxychloroquine + zinc, but there is now a better case to treat with ivermectin, zinc and (or not) doxycycline.
Any antiviral treatment will work better to reduce morbidity when it is given sooner, reducing viral spread and systemic viral loads.

I am currently treating with ivermectin at 200 micrograms per kilogram per dose (1 mg per 11# body weight) on days 1, 3, 5 and 7, but stopping if all symptoms have resolved except mild nasal symptoms like loss of smell.
There is also a good case for taking: Zinc (any form) 50 mg 3 times per day, vitamin-C 1000 mg 3 times per day, NAC 600 mg 3 times per day, higher dose vitamin-D 5000 units 3 times per day, and doxycycline 100 mg twice per day during the treatment course.
Quercetin can also be taken, at divided doses in the range of 200 mg per day to 600 mg per day. It helps zinc enter infected (and other) cells, which is also what HCQ seems to do.

Only ivermectin and doxycycline are prescription drugs. The doxycycline might be considered optional at this point.
Other options are included in this medical guide to treatment with “MATH Plus” and “MASK Plus” protocols: https://www.evms.edu/media/evms_public/departments/internal_medicine/EVMS_Critical_Care_COVID-19_Protocol.pdf
