>Take vitamin-D, 5000 units per day if you have been taking it awhile, but 10,000 units/d >until June if you have not been taking it and you are not an outdoorsy nudist
Exactly right,, also
Get brazil nuts, for the selenium, 2 nuts/day, more if sick (don’t go wild)
For me, it is the 2nd go-around, not so severe this time (so far)Spam filter caught me trying to edit???
–continued from above–
OH, I meant to say,, you don’t pee out oil soluble vitamins, like D
So you can take in one dose(/day), body stores and preserves
Certainly better to get vitamins in food BUT pills are
a much LARGER source, want to eat 30 oranges?@VArnold
Yes, 85% sure I got it from pkg, assembled guangdong begin yr,
shipped quickly. Mostly over, less coughing up phlegm,
odd tasting, never tasted that before, more than a month now@V Arnold You are in the tropics, probably get lots? of sun
If you are not too dark skinned, a hour of midday sun gives ~10K iu D
(if not heavily covered with clothing)
For those in more northern climes, your reserves of D are running low
Take at least 5K/day for a week, then 2K/day thereafter even when not sick
More if you get sick, even if you pee some of it out, it’s CHEAP
What’s your life worth?
A useful anti-viral is black elderberry>Therefore, your recommended purchases will only help the seller
You must know very little about nutrition
All that I mentioned will improve immune response,
unless the person is ALREADY adequate in them
(and adequate is uncommon)
Yes, an overdose of Se is quite toxic, don’t overdose
You can overdose vitamin D, eat a polar bear liver
The doses I recommended are not an overdose,
literally could save thousands, I would estimate 1-2% total pop
And BTW others also recommend this
But few will do, stupidity is it’s own reward
And Doctors don’t believe in nutrition, it’s too hard, competiton
So you have to do this on your own, do several web searches,
throw away top and bottom, use your headOK, an update. I am still alive, a month later
(I am 85% sure that I have had nCoV, from something
assembled in guangdong beginning of year, quickly shipped)
So, my guess is that the 9 days viability when dark & cool should be +50%)
The 1st 2 weeks rather unpleasant, much sleep helps
The pneumonia was only minor, I was watching like a hawk,
I do have animal antibiotics if it seemed needed (was not)
Bacterial pneumonia added would be a killer
(since China is rather dirty, I suspect this is a factor there,
_I_ got bacterial pneumonia there (near wuhan actually) 9 yrs ago)
I did take vitamin C & D, I think D (in adequate dose)
will cut mortality to 1/2. Also black elderberry may be helpful,
and iodine, maybe selenium(carefully, don’t overdose Se)
When phlegm started coming up, well it tasted quite odd,
I never have tasted anything like that (only slightly ickky)
Not so much fevers, more chills
Myself* was already adequate with D, so only increased 5000 iu
Most should take 10,000 iu or if sure deficient 20K for a week
So, better get 2 bottle/person if it is usual 1000 iu pills
(* a few yrs ago, I realized that more calcium (4+) would keep
foot and hand (less) cramps away, if I didn’t add D
I would have to double that, more of a problem in late winter,
for obvious reasons)
The horse has left the barn, probably nearly everyone will get it
I have my doubts that it could have been stopped by any effort,
but the blatant incompetence made it inevitable
I also find it ironic that for both ccp AND usa add 2 zeros to the numbers
So the CDC kicked the can down the road for a whole month, to save us panic,
at the cost of at least 1/2 of their credibility,, WHAT A DEAL
Most fortunate for ccp that children are little affected,
nothing more fierce than a mother with sick child and someone to blameWell I wish I wasn’t writing this, the horse has left the barn
So, I bought a pinebookpro (pine64.org), this batch assembled very late 2019
or beginning 2020. Shipped after a few days, received jan 14. Assembled shenzen or
guangdong
After about 8 days I started to get a cold, turned into maybe worst cold I have ever had
And I can see how it is really trying to turn into pneumonia
Now, about 3/4 over, take lots C and D to keep it from pneumonia
Most unpleasant. One point, the virus is somewhat long-lived, 10+ days
Wife and child now having their turnOK, I just had to register re the Gaurdian, well how much credibility does it have?
I’ve had bees, over 40 years now, if you don’t keep on top of the varroa, you won’t have bees
So I guess Ayr should have been watching better, and maybe trying “new” things,,
CHECKING to see how well they work. It’s easy enough to check, takes time
But then, if you save thousands of dollars, maybe time well spent
And, yes my poor bees have ccd (colony collapse), for 12 years now, it’s a real pain.
I’ve lost 70-80 over that time, I’m a small sideliner, max 25 hives, usually less (10-12)
Too old to lug heavy boxes
Up to 80% late fall die off, hard to repopulate from 2 or 3 in spring, don’t get much honey
FWIW, I think ccd is NOT caused by neo-nics, but a nasty virus, like ebola for insects.
The one and only epidemiological study found the best correlation was physical proximity
Don’t get me wrong, chemical use should be minimized wherever possible and feasible,
but absolutely not banned. Most other insecticides are worse
This year, so far, lost 1 in summer and 1 in Sept, there will be a few more.
It’s easy to tell, once you know what it looks like. And yes, I fight the mites hard
A real pain
