I havn´t much knowledge on the pathogens, I think TB remains mostly silent and is found in one 3rd of the world population, for measles there is an vaccine, ebola is very deadly. For sure I agree that there are a lot of pathogens that need urgently to be restricted and the best would be to...

Yes, it is a pretty interesting study, but the result in itself is also not a surprise. In terms of ME I am not sure that this is of any major importance, it could potentially be one predisposition. And I guess, a rather unimportant one. I don´t think that any muscle problem is core, and many...

I have a strange experience. In 2010 I heavily got worse after having changed my diet. For one week I could not lift up things (I had to occasionally lift up at work) of some weight. It felt as if the muscle would not be able to exert its strength. After a week or so I still felt worse, but the...

To me it seems that it´s the elimination strategy that is more academic like. I find it highly unlikely that it should prevail. You would need only one inaccuracy and you had to start again, furthermore, you would need to accurately tighten the borders with quarantine or an 100% accurate test...

In my view the approach is leading to nowhere anyway. I think that they don´t have the right idea of the illness (I think also that some patients might not have the right idea, although it might be more than one disease, of course). As far as I understood other patients from forums, the...

It´s completely welcome. Details are often clue! Sorry for being impatience.

Today so far there are reported 114 new deaths in Sweden. If one divides them by five, one would have to add 23 new deaths to each of the last four days. This doesn´t change the tendency of declining. Tendency of declining is noticeable in many countries, roughly begin of april +/- ten days...

Though when more people are affected, the virus will spread more slowly. E.g. when 15% are immune (for a while), every fourth cannot become a target for the virus anymore. In addition, there is to some extent the possibilty that high initial viral loads will cause a more severe illness...

Sweden´s number of fatal cases are currently declining. Below what is/was forbidden or recommended, and since when. From the Swedish wiki. På folkhälsomyndighetens inrådan har regeringen endast genomfört följande förbudː Icke-medborgares inresor från icke EU/EES-länder stoppas. (17 mars...

For a rough comparison: In Germany every year ~900.000 people die. This makes 2500 a day, if calculated with a population of 80 million. Another number I just came across is 2600 deaths per day. Yesterday 266 people have both, died and been positive for corona (CDC data). This would compare...

An article https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/04/coronavirus-is-only-part-of-the-excess-fatality-mystery.html from the article The following article might make not completely nonsense for judging the situation: https://time.com/5107984/hospitals-handling-burden-flu-patients/ Hospitals...

They use to be. The institute though is not that brilliantly dealing with possibilites, in my view. To have proper facts as much as possible: Streeck et al presented their preliminary results with already a sample size of 509 in a high hit area. 500, I think, is already two times as high as the...

In Germany still everyone goes to work, only some can´t because shops, restaurants and some other things have to be closed. Restaurants though are allowed to sell their food for taking away.

Czechia and Austria are as well on the road. Czechia and Austria with masks (Czechia probably more restrictive than Austria, here only in supermarkets and buses asf. I think), Austria keeps schools closed but wants to reopen some gastronomy, whereas Denmark wants to reopen schools, I don´t...

Doing a last try with this speculation. Transport and Peripheral Bioactivities of Nitrogen Oxides Carried by Red Blood Cell Hemoglobin: Role in Oxygen Delivery Sonveaux et al 2007

NO 2 is, if I remember rightly, physiologically produced to get rid of physiological NO, cf second article here. This might be an avenue, I think. Interaction of Nitrogen Monoxide With Hemoglobin and the Artefactual Production of S-nitroso-hemoglobin Herold 2003, a review Reaction of...

NO 2 in Feb in Europe. In this picture the numbers from France may not fit in. In Spain Madrid was affected first. from facts about covid-19https://swprs.org/a-swiss-doctor-on-covid-19/

re: IL-6 the dose-response association between nitrogen dioxide exposure and serum interleukin-6 concentration Perret et al 2017 abstract conclusion In so far the corona deaths might rather be not of respsiratory origin maybe this could be an explanation for a pattern to be possibly seen...

Case fatality came out 0.37%. I think a case is anybody who tested positive. Mortality was estimated 0.06%; I don´t know how they did it. For Ínfluenza it is done via excess deaths in a given periode (over an average evaluated over a longer periode). If this were done here as well, then it...

I happened to see the live presentation of first results from German study in Gangelt/Heinsberg, an area highly affected. "Covid-19-Cluster-Study", Streeck and others. So far 509 persons from the half of the sample households have been examined for the study. It took ten days. acute infected -...
