Hong Kong virologist claiming coronavirus cover-up tells 'Bill Hemmer Reports': 'We don't have much time' A Hong Kong virologist who fled to the U.S. earlier this year told "Bill Hemmer Reports" in an exclusive interview Monday that lives could have been saved if the Chinese government hadn't censored her work. "This is a huge pandemic we have seen in the world," Yan Li-Meng told host Bill Hemmer. "It's more than anything we've known in human history. So, the timing is very, very important. Yan exclusively told Fox News Digital last week that she believes the Chinese government knew about the novel coronavirus well before acknowledging the outbreak publicly. "I have to hide because I know how they treat whistleblowers, and as a whistleblower here I want to tell the truth of COVID-19 and the origin of the SARS-2 COVID virus," Yan told Fox News Digital. She told Hemmer that Beijing government knew in December that more than 40 citizens had already been infected with the virus and "human-to-human transmissions [were] already [occurring] at that time."
Mondkapjesplicht: De grootste politieke marketing campagne ooit. Met ú als billboard. VOORWOORD: mijn teksten, perspectieven etc. schrijf ik op puur persoonlijke titel, zonder enige relatie tot welke rol, functie of organisatie dan ook. Het staat anderen vrij om naar mijn openbare artikelen te linken of eruit te citeren waarbij ik opmerk dat meningen, gevolgtrekkingen etc. van anderen voor hun eigen rekening zijn en niet noodzakelijkerwijs overeenkomen met mijn visie etc. De oven wordt voorverwarmd. Binnenkort gaat het beslag erin, met de grootste politiek opgelegde ingreep in onze persoonlijke levenssfeer en zelfbeschikking die velen van ons ooit hebben meegemaakt. Als de kookwekker gaat, dan komt de taart eruit: de mondkapjesplicht. Niets hiervan is ‘hogere school marketing’, het zijn slechts fundamentele basisprincipes die voor iedereen goed te begrijpen zijn. Het meerderheidsstandpunt lijkt nog steeds te zijn dat (niet-medische) mondkapjes geen significante bescherming bieden tegen de overdracht van en/of de besmetting met een virus. 1. 2. 2.1 Selective Attention 3.
Facing Your Face Mask Duties – A List of Statewide Orders | Littler Mendelson P.C. Governors and public health officials across the country have implemented stringent measures to help contain the spread of COVID-19, such as safer at home orders. As businesses reopen, face coverings remain popular as a preventative measure. Numerous jurisdictions have encouraged—or mandated—citizens to wear face coverings when out in public, especially when social distancing cannot be maintained effectively. Some directives also obligate employers to provide masks to their employees. This post, current as of December 24, 2020 at 2:00 p.m. (CDT), identifies the jurisdictions where face coverings are recommended or required. Note that this list does not include face covering guidance at the local level. Employers interested in related information may wish to consult our interactive reopening map, as well as our articles identifying return to work protocols and employee health screening guidance.
Chinese virologist: China's government 'intentionally' released COVID-19 The Chinese government intentionally manufactured and released the COVID-19 virus that led to mass shutdowns and deaths across the world, a top virologist and whistleblower told Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Tuesday. Carlson specifically asked Dr. Li-Meng Yan whether she believed the Chinese Communist Party released the virus "on purpose." "Yes, of course, it's intentionally," she responded on "Tucker Carlson Tonight." Yan said more evidence would be released but pointed to her own high-ranking position at a World Health Organization reference lab as a reason to trust her allegation. "I work[ed] in the WHO reference lab, which is the top coronavirus lab in the world, in the University of Hong Kong. "So, together with my experience, I can tell you, this is created in the lab ... and also, it is spread to the world to make such damage." Yan's comments conflicted with the opinion of Dr. In response, her former employer, the University of Hong Kong, criticized her account.
Initiatief en Missie - Brandbrief Nederlandse artsen over coronamaatregelen Missie De brandbrieven en petitie op deze site hebben als doel een open en oprecht debat over de aanpak van de COVID-19 uitbraak te stimuleren. Gedurende de piek van de uitbrak was snelle en eenduidige actie nodig om het aantal zieken te beperken en onze zorgverlening toegankelijk te houden. Het Sars-CoV-2 virus was nieuw, er waren geen zekerheden en behoudens ‘expert opnion’ weinig onderzoek om adviezen op te baseren. Wij roepen de medische verenigingen en politici op om deze dialoog meer te faciliteren, op te zoeken en te bewaken. Doelstelling Wij ondersteunen de adviserende rol van het OMT en de mate van beslotenheid die nodig is voor oprechte discussievoering. Wij zijn onafhankelijk, zonder banden met welke groep dan ook.
Ibuprofen tested as a coronavirus treatment Image copyright Getty Images Scientists are running a trial to see if ibuprofen can help hospital patients who are sick with coronavirus. The team from London's Guy's and St Thomas' hospital and King's College believe the drug, which is an anti-inflammatory as well as a painkiller, could treat breathing difficulties. They hope the low-cost treatment can keep patients off ventilators. In the trial, called Liberate, half of the patients will receive ibuprofen in addition to usual care. The trial will use a special formulation of ibuprofen rather than the regular tablets that people might usually buy. Studies in animals suggest it might treat acute respiratory distress syndrome - one of the complications of severe coronavirus. Prof Mitul Mehta, one of the team at King's College London, said: "We need to do a trial to show that the evidence actually matches what we expect to happen."
Variation in False-Negative Rate of Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction–Based SARS-CoV-2 Tests by Time Since Exposure | Annals of Internal Medicine Tests for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) based on reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) are often used to “rule out” infection among high-risk persons, such as exposed inpatients and health care workers. Hence, it is critical to understand how the predictive value changes in relation to time since exposure or symptoms, especially when using the results of these tests to make decisions about whether to stop using personal protective equipment or allow exposed health care workers to return to work. The sensitivity and specificity of PCR-based tests for SARS-CoV-2 are poorly characterized, and the “window period” after acquisition in which testing is most likely to produce false-negative results is not well known. Accurate testing for SARS-CoV-2, followed by appropriate preventive measures, is paramount in the health care setting to prevent both nosocomial and community transmission.

'Mondkapjesplicht mag helemaal niet, ook niet als experiment' Burgemeesters gaven in het Veiligheidsberaad aan te willen experimenteren met maatregelen die het gedrag van mensen beïnvloeden, om zo het coronavirus in te dammen. Het voorschrijven van mondkapjes op drukke plekken is één van die experimenten. 'Aparte wet nodig' Maar dat kan helemaal niet, zegt Voermans tegen RTL Nieuws. Dat het gaat om een experiment en dat de draagplicht alleen van kracht is op bepaalde plekken, maakt daarvoor niet uit. Dat is ook wat de Raad van State afgelopen mei al zei. Waarom het in het openbaar vervoer dan wel mag? 'Mondkapjes-noodwetje' De zogeheten coronawet waarover de afgelopen tijd in de Tweede Kamer is overlegd, zou de mondkapjesplicht wél kunnen regelen, zegt Voermans. De burgemeesters van bijvoorbeeld Amsterdam en Rotterdam denken misschien het via een noodverordening voor elkaar te krijgen. Noodtoestand uitroepen Als je de mondkapjesplicht héél snel zou willen invoeren, kun je in Nederland maar één ding doen: de noodtoestand uitroepen.
10/17/20: Johns Hopkins Researchers Identify Immune System Pathway That May Stop COVID-19 Colorized scanning electron micrograph of a cell (purple) heavily infected with SARS-CoV-2 virus particles (yellow). A recent study by Johns Hopkins Medicine shows that blocking a specific protein in a biological pathway may prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection and keep the virus from misdirecting the immune system against healthy cells and organs. Credit: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health Blocking Immune System Pathway May Stop COVID-19 Infection, Prevent Severe Organ Damage While the world waits eagerly for a safe and effective vaccine to prevent infections from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus behind the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers also are focusing on better understanding how SARS-CoV-2 attacks the body in the search for other means of stopping its devastating impact. The study was published recently in the journal Blood.
