I don't know if that deserves two exclamation points. I mean one of the three that will be there will be Taylor.

shitty news on the hydroxychloroquine front...sucks.

 

https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/hydroxychloroquine-coronavirus-treatment-study

Not an official study, but one of the larger to date in the US, hasn't gone through final peer review

There were more deaths among those given hydroxychloroquine versus standard care, researchers reported.

The nationwide study was not a rigorous experiment. But with 368 patients, it’s the largest look so far of hydroxychloroquine with or without the antibiotic azithromycin for COVID-19, which has killed more than 171,000 people as of Tuesday....

....Researchers analyzed medical records of 368 male veterans hospitalized with confirmed coronavirus infection at Veterans Health Administration medical centers who died or were discharged by April 11.

About 28% who were given hydroxychloroquine plus usual care died, versus 11% of those getting routine care alone. About 22% of those getting the drug plus azithromycin died too, but the difference between that group and usual care was not considered large enough to rule out other factors that could have affected survival.

 

Article also highlights Brazil has stopped a study into the drug due to side effects

I think there is a lot of questions with this data.  Who received hydro?  Was it just the gravely sick, or was it everyone who had symptoms?  

Also with the new revelations about the virus.  I think it's going to be vital from this point forward to determine which strain of Rona they had.  This might actually be the most important factor in this whole outbreak.  Because it seems that there are absolutely at least two prevailing strains going around.  The Asian strain and the European strain.  With the European strain being the more deadly of the two.  And the European strain apparently/estimated to be more prevalent on the East Coast, and the Asian Strain being more prevalent on the West Coast.  It could be that the Hydro has a better effect against the Asian strain per China and other Asian countries results, and not against the European strain as per seen in France and possibly this VA study.

In conclusion, we should build a wall along the Mississippi and make the East Coast pay for it.

I dropped some groceries off at my parents on Saturday. Took the canyon back and drove past the Human Bean. Lots of cars lined up. Now I wanna try it.

I'll use the word Karen from now on. Sorry I offended you.

On a side note, if someone is acting like a Karen, they should be called one and held accountable for their posts. Make fun of a dudes policies or get your hair in a bunch that they are not on your team, but making fun of a dude that lost an eye during military duty is pretty low and worth such a moniker.

I haven't ventured beyond Avery, and La Paz in over a month.

It's a good place. Better than Starbucks.

So I love getting coffee out but I don’t get special drinks. Just coffee cream and Splenda. Still a recommend?

I lived right in that area up until recently for 6 years. I've seen probably 5-6 places try to open in that spot. Glad one finally found success. I miss having the dueling Del Tacos near me.

Who else lives in our area? You guys wanna come to our comedy night at the house? We had to cancel in May. We got 70 last year and were expecting 100 this year. Gonna have it when we can

I'm not the right person to ask because I only get special drinks (surprise, surprise). But seeing as they have 4.5 stars on Yelp, I assume their basic coffee is good.

I have no idea what part of MV you live in, but my favorite coffee place in the area is Choco Bean. They make a good cup of regular coffee.

Btw if you call the cops on someone for literally being OUTSIDE you are the ultra Karen and are, in fact, a c*nt.

I’ve been told that using the term “Karen” as a derogative is exactly the same as unleashing the N word.  Why are you doing this ?

[Adam]

Maybe we should just throw a big AW party

SAD!

[UndertheHalo]

I thought it was actually a comedy night.  If it’s an orgy.  Well, then I understand that AIDS might be a problem.

I actually saw the clips of her saying these things on the news. lol 

Also, I don't pay ANY attention to Politifact.com. They're a liberal biased outlet. So I just skipped past everything you posted. Your "Facts" would be thrown out in the court of law if you used them.

Chuck: This source is liberal biased so it's not worth my time.

Also Chuck: *posts something from Tucker Carlson*
