Any proof the death rate during this flu season is abnormally high?

I don't think there is the capacity to test everyone, this is a major flaw in the capitalist system, health needs to be treated as a must for everybody, for society to continue functioning the way we do, the chaos this virus is causing is a clear sign a new approach is necessary moving forward.

Weird ... you know what? Guess who else didn't have the capacity to test everyone - China? Are you going to claim that was also a flaw in a capitalist system?

I'm sure once (if) it hits washington dc the government will change how they are responding to it.

I for one hope that it doesn't spread enough to do that though.

A lot of the government programs that deal with something like this were cut in the last few years.

The older I get, the more I’m learning which foods don’t agree with me. My issue is the blood clotting factor. My mum died at age 41 from a blood clot in the lung - pulmonary embolism. I had the clot in my brain - massive stroke which has caused left side paralysis. It’s hard for me to exercise but I’ve been trying. I take vitamins and really noticed how they helped with my vision. I’ve determined carrots are a super food for me. I know I should eat healthier than I do.

Some sulfur veggies and supplements help to keep blood from clotting, but remember, they can interact with blood thinners so you have to watch it. Onions and garlic help to deter platelets from sticking together, too much is not good though if you are taking meds. Bromelain also does that and so does quercetin to a certain extent. Taurine supplements also help to stop blood clots, taurine is the bodies natural chemistry that stops agglutination and it also brings down some of the high cholesterol markers. But you do not need a lot of this as a supplement, like everything else, consuming certain food chemistry combinations can help. But it is also not heat stable like the proteinase bromelain is. Same with onions, some of the proteinases are not heat stable, but quercetin is. Raw onions are better. Now none of these are miracle cures and sometimes people do still need blood thinners.

The blood type diet is relevant, but there are some ways to lessen the impact of hemagglutination from blood type, I simply need to put onions on my hot dog or hamburger, some people don't need it because of their blood type. And, if a person is born between a O type parent, and an A type, they are type AO or A technically, so they have some protection of the O in eating beef but they are type A blood technically. Not as good as a full O type individual My daughter is an AO, I am an AA My wife is type O If we did not get our genetics done I would not have identified the O markers on my daughter and would not have researched this aspect. So all A's are not equal in blood type. Even though the A is dominant, some protection is still evident for some things.

Thanks for the idea. I have a recipe for chicken soup that is out of this world.
I'll post it on food.

I make some really good chicken soup, to control my epilepsy, and it actually is really good at knocking down viruses and curbing the symptoms from getting overly bad. It also contains a lot of anti-cancer properties. My kids love it when they are sick.

But I would like to see your recipe, it could have some chemistry that I could use to improve it, I have made many tweeks over the last twelve years or so to make it both better tasting and more effective. The original recipe I developed in the seventies, but now it is twice as potent at helping with viruses as it used to be.

I will look forward to checking out your recipe. I will even try making it, not all chicken soup has to be medicinal, my recipe is very potent and calming, you don't want to eat that when you are going skiing or snowmobiling, but afterwards it is great.

Don't worry, this is just a Democrat hoax

This pandemic was all started by the most socialist health system in the world.

Communist China chernobyled this crisis from the start.

This kind of initial cover up is only possible when the health system and the government are one and the same.

Children rates are breaking records.

Overall, hospitalization rates remain similar to this time during recent seasons, but rates among school aged children and young adults are higher at this time than in recent seasons and rates among children 0-4 years old are now the highest CDC has on record at this point in the season, surpassing rates reported during the second wave of the 2009 H1N1 pandemic.

it isn't even to the point where you can say that and whatever happens will have nothing to do with capitalism, or any economic system in place, you can only do so much without a vaccine and even with a vaccine it takes time to produce enough to make a difference, right now it's more about observation and hoping they don't die during their stay.
but it's generally a bad idea to visit a hospital if you want to avoid getting sick, it's better people wait till they're actually sick rather than going to hospital for a check before showing symptoms, even then you should only worry about it if you have a comprised immune system since it has yet to kill people who are relatively healthy or young.

and how have countries fared who have socialized medicine? China for one has socialized medical care, so does South Korea, as well as Japan. which are the three countries with the biggest problem with Wuflu currently. so i t seems socialized medical has done nothing to stop it. and none of them is testing everyone, nor do they have the capacity to do so. so how is that showing "a flaw in the capitalist system"? in fact Britain is saying that they might not even treat some of those most at risk of dying from Wuflu so they can use their limited resources on those that have a better chance of survival.

The England-based medics told the publication that the already struggling health service would 'crumble' under the weight of a large outbreak, one lamenting that their hospital even struggled to contain this winter's seasonal spate of flu and colds.
'If you can imagine the real worst-case scenarios where supply is massively outstripped by demand we would have to refuse to admit many people who would normally get ventilated,' one worried doctor said.
They added that Three Wise Men was developed by The Committee on Ethical Aspects of Pandemic Influenza 'to minimise the harm the pandemic causes,' despite disparities in care levels for sufferers.

Oh yes, once it hits that Washington, response will get ramped up.

So how is it going in China? Just think if China culls the heard 800 million that is less people they need to take care of.

What hoax... Oh the one where they instantly came out and said Trump is causing all this, or the one where they said that due to Trump the US is far from being prepared in anyway, or the one that they suggest Pence failed many times in the past about medical concerns because his religion doesn't believe in any of it and so is the last person who should be in charge of this.. I'm sure we will get 3 more this week.

You’re quite knowledgeable on dietary needs. I take one baby aspirin (81mg) a day for blood thinning. My blood type is A+

I love onions raw or cooked.

This virus is not the flu, the reaction around the world in dealing with this virus tells us that much...ever seen the flu dealt with like this.

Lets just our governments choose a better path, although at the point I'm not confident.

I mean purely in the sense health care should be the top priority not financial gain. Preventative measures could reduce the economic impact this virus will cause.
