Liquid Breathing As Coronavirus ARDS Cure

#Covid19 miracle cure. You are welcome. #liquidBreathing #perfluoroCarbon #Abyss.  

[Yes, you still need a #ventilator to help you breath. But patients do not need #sedation / #anesthesia. And the perfluorocarbon helps wash out all the #pneumonia gunk from your lungs.]

And this is also safer for the #medicalProvider's, because you have less #droplet's. #Coronavirus

Casualties of the Great Restoration

Summary: 1. The #Obama'ite [and #Clintonite] Washington #mandarin's are now cutting out the original #BidenCampaign crew in all of the cool jobs. The campaign crew stuck with Biden "[...] When all of the young cool operatives were flocking to #Beto and Bernie and Warren." So they are upset. Althouse: "The real trick will be Phase 2 — leaving #Biden behind. He's not cool."

2. #Progressive's are upset at Biden, too, for freezing out #Bernie and #ElizabethWarren.

3. #BLM is still waiting for some love from Biden, too.

Analysis: And the #DemocratEstablishment strikes again. When you elect an #Establishment candidate, this is what you get.

Of course the #DemocratParty platform is plenty Progressive-Adjacent already, but they still care about #WallStreet more than their base. To wit, Janet Yellen. No #DebtJubilee this time.

#TrueBeliever's always get purged after a Revolution, at some point. (Granted the Chinese Red Guards had a good run.) This is because #ideologicalPurity gets in the way of getting stuff done, inevitably. This 2020 election was not exactly a revolution, but the #moderate's really used the Progressives to muscle out the #Deplorables this time. So now is the time for the Moderates to toss the Progressives to the curb.

The Moderates will learn, soon enough, that nobody likes them anymore. They and Wall Street are what is holding America back.

Nagorno-Karabakh Quick Lessons.

Summary: #NagornoKarabakh

1. People are reviewing the 2nd Nagorno Karabakh War. And are concluding that Russia won at the expense of Armenia. #CdrSalamander pushes back against the ones clamoring for NATO/US Caucasus involvement. Cdr Salamander: So What Happened With Azerbaijan and Armenia.

2. Supposed secondary source reporting on the lessons of the war. Why Armenia seemingly did not react to patent opportunities. #theSaker. The Saker: The Karabakh War is Over, The Crisis is Not. What comes Next. [FB says #Unz . Com is #badThink. You was warned.]

Analysis: Everybody is looking at the 2nd NK war for lessons on a middle-intensity conflict. Perhaps the ubiquitous drone footage promises more than was the case.

Veterans Day 2020

They shall not grow old,

As we that are left grow old.  

They don't kill the children anymore.   Another appropriate clip to the current time.

Coronavirus and Political Hypocrisy 20201109

Summary: Philadelphia health commissioner [but not the mayor] is asking the celebrating-in-the-streets people to get tested for #Covid19 because of their close proximity to crowds.

Analysis: The mayors are probably all in the streets gladhanding people, too. #PartyOfScience #BedrockScience.

People say we have a #STEM shortage. [Thankfully no more #STEAM recently.] Yet people keep not majoring in STEM, or not working hard on their arithmetics. [Yes, all y'all on the calculators.] And then, of course, city councilmen are not STEM, almost all the time, let alone at higher levels. #Rhetorics do not match reality in America.

And of course any move to cut the arts to pay for more STEM brings out all the concerned parents, in some parts of the country. [Paper and pencil for arithmetic worksheets are cheap, of course.]

Oh, and of course, no plan for the police to actually arrest or cite any of the #mask-not-wearing people for violating #socialDistancing ordinances. Because, of course, #civilLiberties for me, but not for thee.

Pregnancy Medical News

Summary: 1. A Tennessee longitudinal study #CANDLE showed temporal correlation between maternal #VitaminD level and subsequent children's #IQ at ages 4-6. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2020-11-vitamin-d-pregnancy-linked-child.html h/t InstaPundit

2. Vitamin D level during age 0-1 #infant correlates with #bodyWeight #obesity later on. https://pjmedia.com/instapundit/411017/

Analysis: Is there nothing it can't do.

Caveat first that childhood IQ does not correlate well with adult IQ.

We generally do not think of Vitamin D as having anything to do with the neural system. So this study is very interesting. Perhaps the IQ effect comes from the #immuneSystem effects / #allergy's. Or the supposed effect on cell #differentiation.

Given that skin #melanin level correlates with Vitamin D deficiency in America, perhaps this explains some of the IQ #achievementGap. But given the noisy signal of childhood IQ, it is likely the adult effect is low.

We see here too that allergies, a known effect of Vitamin D deficiency, correlates with obesity.

Coronavirus News 20201105

Summary: 1. #Covid19-related #myocarditis only happened to 1.4-7.2% of 277 #kungFlu dead bodies. Most likely patients do not get myocarditis directly from Coronavirus, but rather the associated complications or #comorbidities. And this risk is likely low for most patients. https://www.upi.com/Health_News/2020/11/04/Heart-inflammation-from-COVID-19-less-common-than-thought/4441604499783 h/t InstaPundit

2. Long term #lung damage mechanism. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2020-11-covid-lung-persistence-abnormal-cells.html

3. Some people recover much faster from Covid19 than most people. This population confirmed existence. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2020-11-uncovers-subset-covid-patients-recover.html

Analysis: Some people were really freaked out by the potential heart damage. Even though they themselves do not ever utilize their full #cardiovascular capacity. Or they were worried for their teenage athletes. Even though American teenagers are fatter than ever.

Rejoice, for that risk is negligible.

Some people are always looking for things to get freaked out by.
