A new peer reviewed scientific study has suggested that Liberals in Canada are having fewer male babies because they are too traumatised about Donald Trump becoming the US President .
That ’ s right , Orange man is so bad it caused NPC babies to come out all girly .
The study , published in the scientific journal BMJ Open , claims that Trump ’ s election can be associated with a temporary shift in the sex ratio of newborn babies , but only in politically liberal areas , and not in conservative territories .
The author of the study @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the idea for the test from reading about how stressful events , such as 9/11 , had affected the sex ratio of newborns .
“ I felt this apprehension in society that immediately harked back to September 11 , ” Retnakaran , a clinician at Toronto ’ s Mount Sinai Hospital , said , adding “ And that ’ s when the light dawned in my head , and I wondered if [ Trump ’ s election ] could have the same sort of effect on the sex ratio.
” The study analysed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s election , immediately after , and over six months later .
The lowest ratio of boys to girls was recorded in March 2017 , but only in liberal locales of Ontario , and not conservative parts .
“ We were looking for a very specific signal , ” Retnakaran noted , adding “ The stratification we did based on liberal-leaning parts compared to conservative-leaning surprised us because we didn ’ t know if that would be there or not.
” Fertility expert Allan Pacey from the University of Sheffield commented that “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in Ontario .
Maybe they should chill out more.
” Noting that while the study only establishes correlation , not cause , Pacey did concede of Canadian liberals that “ if their stress hormones went up in the same way that people react badly to terrorist attacks , then I can see this mechanism operating.
” So there you have it , something else crazy Liberals can blame on Trump .
Although being responsible for more girls being brought into the world is probably something the President would be very proud of .

A new peer reviewed scientific study has suggested that Liberals in Canada are having fewer male babies because they are too traumatised about Donald Trump becoming the US President.
That’s right, Orange man is so bad it caused NPC babies to come out all girly.
The study, published in the scientific journal BMJ Open, claims that Trump’s election can be associated with a temporary shift in the sex ratio of newborn babies, but only in politically liberal areas, and not in conservative territories.
The author of the study Ravi Retnakaran told Wired that he got the idea for the test from reading about how stressful events, such as 9/11, had affected the sex ratio of newborns.
“I felt this apprehension in society that immediately harked back to September 11,” Retnakaran, a clinician at Toronto’s Mount Sinai Hospital, said, adding “And that’s when the light dawned in my head, and I wondered if [Trump’s election] could have the same sort of effect on the sex ratio.”
The study analysed all births in Ontario before Trump’s election, immediately after, and over six months later. The lowest ratio of boys to girls was recorded in March 2017, but only in liberal locales of Ontario, and not conservative parts.
“We were looking for a very specific signal,” Retnakaran noted, adding “The stratification we did based on liberal-leaning parts compared to conservative-leaning surprised us because we didn’t know if that would be there or not.”
Fertility expert Allan Pacey from the University of Sheffield commented that “Maybe this research says more about liberals in Ontario. Maybe they should chill out more.”
Noting that while the study only establishes correlation, not cause, Pacey did concede of Canadian liberals that “if their stress hormones went up in the same way that people react badly to terrorist attacks, then I can see this mechanism operating.”
So there you have it, something else crazy Liberals can blame on Trump. Although being responsible for more girls being brought into the world is probably something the President would be very proud of.


newswars--2020-03-04--WHO Urges People To Go ‘Cashless’ Because ‘Dirty Banknotes Can Spread The Virus’

It looks like the Chinese started something… Following reports that Beijing had “ quarantined ” dirty cash , the WHO warned on Monday that the virus could survive on banknotes , potentially spreading Covid-19 within communities , and across the world .
To reduce the risk of being infected by money , the NGO advised citizens in countries struggling with outbreaks to favor digital payments when possible , the Daily Telegraph reported .
That the WHO is telling the public to avoid cash is hardly a surprise : research has found that coronaviruses have been found to live on surfaces @ @ @ @ @ @ @ During the statement , a WHO spokesman referenced a Bank of England study claiming that banknotes “ can carry bacteria or viruses ” and urged people to wash their hands .
Other studies have shown that 90 % of US $ 1 bills had bacteria present , and one Swiss study found that viruses had survive on the faces of Swiss francs for days .
The WHO ’ s warnings follow the People ’ s Bank of China last month started disinfecting currency deposited at Chinese banks using ultraviolet light , before quarantining @ @ @ @ @ @ @ them back into circulation .
Mike Adams joins The Alex Jones Show to break down the news of a national emergency in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic .
Brits , and their fellow Europeans , should be increasingly careful as the virus spreads across Europe , the WHO warned , via the Telegraph : “ We know that money changes hands frequently and can pick up all sorts of bacteria and viruses , ” a spokesman told the Telegraph .
“ We would advise people to wash their hands after handling banknotes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ When possible , it would also be advisable to use contactless payments to reduce the risk of transmission.
” Of course , that one of the world ’ s major NGOs is seizing the opportunity to proclaim the virtues of ‘ paperless ’ money is hardly a surprise : the globalist push toward a ‘ cashless society ’ has been underway for years now , having had its biggest successes in Scandinavia .
Sweden has gone virtually “ cashless ” , and in such a short time , they ’ ve already confronted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ digital money .
As we noted previously , here is what happens next : …the virus spreads throughout the US and Europe and governments respond the same way China ’ s government has ; martial law and full blown concentration camp culture .
This would lead to civil war in the US because we are armed and many people will shoot anyone trying to put us into quarantine camps .
Europe is mostly screwed .
The establishment then suggests that paper money be removed from the system because it is a viral spreader @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now .
Magically , we find ourselves in a cashless society in a matter of a year or two ; which is what the globalists have been demanding for years .
Everything goes digital , and thus even local economies become completely centralized as private trade dies .
A viral outbreak is a significant danger to us all , but an even greater threat is the supposed cure .
Trading our economic and social freedom in the name of stopping the coronavirus ?
No matter how deadly the bug , it ’ s @ @ @ @ @

It looks like the Chinese started something…
Following reports that Beijing had “quarantined” dirty cash, the WHO warned on Monday that the virus could survive on banknotes, potentially spreading Covid-19 within communities, and across the world. To reduce the risk of being infected by money, the NGO advised citizens in countries struggling with outbreaks to favor digital payments when possible, the Daily Telegraph reported.
That the WHO is telling the public to avoid cash is hardly a surprise: research has found that coronaviruses have been found to live on surfaces for as long as 9 days.
During the statement, a WHO spokesman referenced a Bank of England study claiming that banknotes “can carry bacteria or viruses” and urged people to wash their hands. Other studies have shown that 90% of US $1 bills had bacteria present, and one Swiss study found that viruses had survive on the faces of Swiss francs for days.
The WHO’s warnings follow the People’s Bank of China last month started disinfecting currency deposited at Chinese banks using ultraviolet light, before quarantining the bills for a week before releasing them back into circulation.
Mike Adams joins The Alex Jones Show to break down the news of a national emergency in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
Brits, and their fellow Europeans, should be increasingly careful as the virus spreads across Europe, the WHO warned, via the Telegraph:
“We know that money changes hands frequently and can pick up all sorts of bacteria and viruses,” a spokesman told the Telegraph. “We would advise people to wash their hands after handling banknotes, and avoid touching their face. When possible, it would also be advisable to use contactless payments to reduce the risk of transmission.”
Of course, that one of the world’s major NGOs is seizing the opportunity to proclaim the virtues of ‘paperless’ money is hardly a surprise: the globalist push toward a ‘cashless society’ has been underway for years now, having had its biggest successes in Scandinavia. Sweden has gone virtually “cashless”, and in such a short time, they’ve already confronted the many drawbacks of relying exclusively on digital money.

Super Tuesday: Biden Wins VA, NC, AL, OK, TN, MN, AR, MA; Bernie Wins CA, VT, CO, UT; Bloomberg Wins American Samoa

Fourteen states , one territory and Democrats abroad are voting in the Super Tuesday presidential primaries , with 1,357 delegates to the Democratic National Convention up for grabs .
The big question remains – How will the coronavirus affect the turnout of millions of voters .
Samantha Power , Susan Rice , James Comey , and John Brennan have now all thrown their support behind Joe Biden for President as the Deep state exposes itself on Super Tuesday .
The Trump campaign puts out a statement : The former VP got 66 % of the black vote .
Bloomberg was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ blow given the time and effort he focused in that state .
100 % expected to clinch his home state .
Mike Bloomberg in 4th behind Warren NBC ’ s Kornacki showing exit polls showing “ a landslide ” for Joe Biden in North Carolina .
He ’ s crushing among African Americans and winning by double digits among white voters too .
“ A decisive victory , we are led to believe , over Tulsi Gabbard… ” says MSNBC ’ s Brian Williams on Bloomberg ’ s win in American Samoa .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ African Americans powering Biden to a big win in Alabama , per MSNBC .
Fox is calling it for Joe – With 413 of 1,948 precincts reporting , Biden 32 % , Sanders 23 % , Bloomberg 17 % , Warren 14 % , Gabbard 2 % .
Biden winning Minnesota is first genuine whoa of the night , apparently after he was endorsed by Amy Klobuchar .
Bernie Sanders carried the state in 2016 .
Fox projects Sanders as the winner , Biden is 4th .
“ They don ’ t call @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Biden says .
Warren finishes 3rd in her home state .
Worth noting the significance of AP feeling confident enough to call Sanders winning California , the state with the largest number of delegates , immediately after polls closed .
Sanders is polling 12 points ahead of Biden in California , according to Real Clear Politics average of polls .
By the way , Donald Trump has a big lead in the race for the Republican presidential nomination .
With 1,276 bound delegates needed to win , Trump has 548 delegates right now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Weld , with 1 .
Biden is screaming ahead of Bernie in the prediction markets… The market is bid on the back of Biden ’ s gains for now… When asked if Mike Bloomberg will drop out tonight , Bloomberg Campaign Manager Kevin Sheekey says , “ absolutely not.
” President Trump has other ideas.. Hillary Clinton tells NPR she doesn ’ t plan to endorse anyone .
“ I am going to say the same thing I ’ ve been saying from the beginning of this vigorous primary contest : I hope @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is most able to beat Donald Trump in the electoral college .
At the end of the day , that is all that matters.
” It appears The DNC have pulled out all the dirty tricks to defeat Bernie… “ Tonight I can tell you with absolute confidence we are going to win the Democratic nomination.
” Trump tweets Warren was the loser of the night , other than Bloomberg , he says… Lots more to come .
The Democratic presidential contenders are poised to face off on Tuesday in one of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so far , with 14 states set to vote and 1,300 delegates up for grabs .
As The Hill reports , Sen. Bernie Sanders ( I-Vt. ) heads into the contests as the front-runner after wins in New Hampshire and Nevada , as well as a virtual tie in Iowa , but former Vice President Joe Biden got a major boost after decisively winning South Carolina .
However , it appears the money is piling into Biden as prediction markets now have him at 54 % chance of getting the nomination ( vs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ % ) … Super Tuesday will also mark the debut of former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg on the ballot .
He will join a race that has significantly winnowed over the past three days with Sen. Amy Klobuchar ( D-Minn. ) , former South Bend , Ind.
, Mayor Pete Buttigieg , and billionaire Tom Steyer all dropping out .
The Primary Voters are considerably more diverse than recent primaries .
Roughly four in 10 voters in today ’ s Democratic presidential primaries are people of color , according to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the 14 Super Tuesday states but today ’ s voters are on the older side – 64 % of today ’ s Democratic voters are 45 or over , including the 29 % of voters who are age 65 or over .
Here are the most crucial states to watch out for on Tuesday , according to The Hill : California is the biggest prize of the evening , with 415 delegates up for grabs .
Sanders is currently the clear favorite to win the Golden State , but Biden has an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ support .
The RealClearPolitics average from the Democratic primary ’ s California polls shows Sanders with a nearly 17 point lead over his rivals , but Biden ’ s support has ticked up in a few recent polls .
A CBS News/YouGov poll released Monday showed Sanders with 31 percent support in the state and Biden at 19 percent support , with Warren at 18 percent .
Biden also stands to benefit in the state if he receives the support of former Buttigieg and Klobuchar voters .
That would give him a better @ @ @ @ @ @ @ threshold in the state , providing him with a share of the delegates even if he does not win the state as a whole .
“ We ’ re no longer dividing the pot between four , five or six people .
We ’ re dividing it between three people , ” said Kelly Dietrich , the founder and head of the National Democratic Training Committee , which trains Democrats to run for public office .
However , it still remains to be seen what influence Bloomberg will have in the state where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on advertising alone .
“ I think he ’ s going to have trouble competing in California , ” Democratic strategist Brad Bannon said .
“ The fact that Joe Biden is a stronger candidate than he was three days ago hurts Bloomberg , who is also in the moderate lane.
” “ Part of Bloomberg ’ s vote strategy was associated with [ Biden ’ s ] weakness , and Biden is now a stronger candidate , ” he said .
The Lone Star State has the second-most delegates up for grabs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the state , but by a much narrower gap than in California .
The RealClearPolitics polling average in Texas ’ s Democratic primary puts Sanders six points ahead of Biden .
Sanders is relying on his strong support among the Latino community in the state after he was propelled to victory in Nevada thanks in large part to Hispanic voters .
A poll conducted by the firm Latino Decisions for Univision and the University of Houston ’ s Center for Mexican American Studies , shows Sanders polling at 31 percent support among @ @ @ @ @ @ @ trailed at 23 and 19 percent , respectively .
The poll was released before South Carolina ’ s primary .
Moe Vela , a Democratic strategist and White House adviser in the Clinton and Obama administrations , said Biden will need to improve his standing among the Hispanic community in order to perform well in states like Texas .
“ As much credit as you have to give Bernie Sanders , I also have to say the vice president ’ s campaign needs to get their act together when it comes to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sits on the board of Transparent Business , told The Hill .
The Bay State could prove to be a death knell for Warren ’ s campaign if she does not perform well .
Despite her high name recognition and endorsements from some of the state ’ s progressive lawmakers , including Sen. Ed Markey ( D-Mass . )
and Rep. Joe Kennedy ( D-Mass . )
, recent polling shows Warren slipping in her home state .
Suffolk University/Boston Globe/WBZ-TV poll released on Saturday shows Warren ’ s fellow New Englander Sanders @ @ @ @ @ @ @ state , while she trailed at 22 percent , within the survey ’ s 4.4-percentage point margin of error .
A WBUR survey released earlier last week showed an even wider gap , with Sanders at 25 percent support and Warren at 17 percent support .
That poll ’ s margin of error was plus or minus 4.9 percentage points .
Warren ’ s performance in New Hampshire could offer some insight into how well she will perform in Massachusetts .
The Granite State is famous for choosing New England candidates , voting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Warren , by contrast , came in fourth in New Hampshire , behind Midwesterners Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar .
“ I think she definitely has to win Massachusetts tomorrow , in part to go out to the next wave of states , ” Bannon said .
[ How ] can you make a plea for votes there when you can ’ t win your own state ?
” Virginia has the fourth largest share of delegates of the Super Tuesday contests and Bloomberg has paid close attention to the state .
Bloomberg @ @ @ @ @ @ @ than any other Super Tuesday state .
The campaign has eight offices across the commonwealth , including in the Republican-leaning strongholds of Danville and Roanoke .
More than 80 Bloomberg staffers are dispersed throughout Virginia .
His campaign cites the need to keep the state blue after the legislature flipped to Democrats in 2019 and points to his heavy investment in advocating for stronger gun control measures in Virginia .
The issue has played a central role in the state ’ s political discourse since the 2007 Virginia Tech shooting .
“ Virginia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the future of the party , you know the moderate , progressive and suburban voters , ” senior Bloomberg adviser Tim O ’ Brien told The Hill .
Bloomberg himself touted his own work in the state ’ s 2019 elections during a get-out-the-vote event in McLean on Saturday .
“ It [ was ] so important to help flip the Virginia legislature blue this fall , and I was glad to help get it done , ” Bloomberg said to a boisterous crowd .
However , a number of recent polls show @ @ @ @ @ @ @ state .
Biden , in particular , could hurt Bloomberg ’ s chances in the state after a big win in South Carolina.Biden was also endorsed by a number of notable Democratic figures in Virginia recently .
Former Gov .
Terry McAuliffe , Sen. Tim Kaine , Rep. Elaine Luria , and Rep. Bobby Scott were all on hand for a Biden rally in Norfolk on Sunday evening where the former vice president received a rock star-like reception .
African American voters make up a large share of the Democratic vote in Alabama @ @ @ @ @ @ @ looking to appeal to a voting group that is widely considered the backbone of the Democratic Party .
Five Thirty-Eight ’ s forecast shows Biden with a 61 percent chance of winning the state .
The former vice president stands to perform well with African American voters after an overwhelming win in South Carolina .
Biden received a warm welcome in Selma on Sunday at an event marking the anniversary of the civil rights march .
“ The moderate African Americans tend to be the majority of the Democratic Party , or at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ strategist Jamal Simmons told The Hill .
“ Older African Americans who tend to be the leadership of these big parties in the states like Alabama , Mississippi , Georgia , they tend to be very pragmatic , if not more moderate .
So that means they ’ re more likely to be Joe Biden voters.
” While Sanders has relied on younger voters of color for support , he and Biden appeared to split the black youth vote in South Carolina , which might not bode well for the progressive senator in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have his over performance with young African-Americans that he had in other places , ” Simmons said , referring to South Carolina .
Who would Trump prefer ?
For now , prediction markets appear confident that whoever it is , Trump will win…

Fourteen states, one territory and Democrats abroad are voting in the Super Tuesday presidential primaries, with 1,357 delegates to the Democratic National Convention up for grabs.

The big question remains – How will the coronavirus affect the turnout of millions of voters.
And the results begin:
Biden wins Virginia, North Carolina, Alabama, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Minnesota , Arkansas, Massachusetts
wins Virginia, North Carolina, Alabama, Oklahoma, Tennessee, , Arkansas, Bernie wins Vermont, Colorado, Utah, & California
wins Vermont, Colorado, Utah, & Bloomberg wins American Samoa?
The projected delegate count is:
Samantha Power, Susan Rice, James Comey, and John Brennan have now all thrown their support behind Joe Biden for President as the Deep state exposes itself on Super Tuesday.

The Trump campaign puts out a statement:
“The results only increase the likelihood that no candidate will have enough delegates for a first ballot victory at their convention, which only means more chaos! The media is hyperventilating about Joe Biden but everyone should remember that he is just as terrible a candidate right now as he was a few days ago.” “Even if Bernie is not on November’s ballot, his big government socialist ideas will be because they have become mainstream in today’s Democrat Party. President Trump will wipe the floor with whatever Democrat is unlucky enough to be the nominee.”

The Democratic presidential contenders are poised to face off on Tuesday in one of the most consequential contests of the primary race so far, with 14 states set to vote and 1,300 delegates up for grabs.
As The Hill reports, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) heads into the contests as the front-runner after wins in New Hampshire and Nevada,as well as a virtual tie in Iowa, but former Vice President Joe Biden got a major boost after decisively winning South Carolina.

Here are the most crucial states to watch out for on Tuesday, according to The Hill:
California
California is the biggest prize of the evening, with 415 delegates up for grabs.
Sanders is currently the clear favorite to win the Golden State, but Biden has an opportunity to put a dent in his support. The RealClearPolitics average from the Democratic primary’s California polls shows Sanders with a nearly 17 point lead over his rivals, but Biden’s support has ticked up in a few recent polls. A CBS News/YouGov poll released Monday showed Sanders with 31 percent support in the state and Biden at 19 percent support, with Warren at 18 percent. Biden also stands to benefit in the state if he receives the support of former Buttigieg and Klobuchar voters. That would give him a better chance of reaching the 15 percent viability threshold in the state, providing him with a share of the delegates even if he does not win the state as a whole. “We’re no longer dividing the pot between four, five or six people. We’re dividing it between three people,” said Kelly Dietrich, the founder and head of the National Democratic Training Committee, which trains Democrats to run for public office. However, it still remains to be seen what influence Bloomberg will have in the state where he’s spent $36 million on advertising alone. “I think he’s going to have trouble competing in California,” Democratic strategist Brad Bannon said. “The fact that Joe Biden is a stronger candidate than he was three days ago hurts Bloomberg, who is also in the moderate lane.” “Part of Bloomberg’s vote strategy was associated with [Biden’s] weakness, and Biden is now a stronger candidate,” he said.
Texas
The Lone Star State has the second-most delegates up for grabs, at 228. Sanders is leading in the state, but by a much narrower gap than in California.
The RealClearPolitics polling average in Texas’s Democratic primary puts Sanders six points ahead of Biden. Sanders is relying on his strong support among the Latino community in the state after he was propelled to victory in Nevada thanks in large part to Hispanic voters.

Massachusetts
The Bay State could prove to be a death knell for Warren’s campaign if she does not perform well.
Despite her high name recognition and endorsements from some of the state’s progressive lawmakers, including Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and Rep. Joe Kennedy (D-Mass.), recent polling shows Warren slipping in her home state.

[How] can you make a plea for votes there when you can’t win your own state?”
Virginia
Virginia has the fourth largest share of delegates of the Super Tuesday contests and Bloomberg has paid close attention to the state.
Bloomberg has visited Virginia seven times, more than any other Super Tuesday state. The campaign has eight offices across the commonwealth, including in the Republican-leaning strongholds of Danville and Roanoke. More than 80 Bloomberg staffers are dispersed throughout Virginia. His campaign cites the need to keep the state blue after the legislature flipped to Democrats in 2019 and points to his heavy investment in advocating for stronger gun control measures in Virginia.

Alabama
African American voters make up a large share of the Democratic vote in Alabama, making the state critical for candidates looking to appeal to a voting group that is widely considered the backbone of the Democratic Party.
Five Thirty-Eight’s forecast shows Biden with a 61 percent chance of winning the state. The former vice president stands to perform well with African American voters after an overwhelming win in South Carolina. Biden received a warm welcome in Selma on Sunday at an event marking the anniversary of the civil rights march. “The moderate African Americans tend to be the majority of the Democratic Party, or at least a large part,” Democratic strategist Jamal Simmons told The Hill. “Older African Americans who tend to be the leadership of these big parties in the states like Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, they tend to be very pragmatic, if not more moderate. So that means they’re more likely to be Joe Biden voters.” While Sanders has relied on younger voters of color for support, he and Biden appeared to split the black youth vote in South Carolina, which might not bode well for the progressive senator in Alabama. “Bernie didn’t have his over performance with young African-Americans that he had in other places,” Simmons said, referring to South Carolina.
Who would Trump prefer? For now, prediction markets appear confident that whoever it is, Trump will win…


newswars--2020-03-04--Time To Debunk The Skeptics: COVID-19 Has A Death Rate That Is About 34 Times Higher Than The Flu

COVID-19 is an extremely deadly virus , and nobody should be trying to downplay the severity of this outbreak .
By now , you have probably heard a lot of people try to convince you that COVID-19 is not that dangerous because the flu has killed far more people this winter .
And that is true .
But what they aren ’ t telling you is that the death rate from the flu is extremely low .
Tens of thousands of Americans die from the flu each year , but if this coronavirus spreads all over the planet the death @ @ @ @ @ @ @ millions .
This coronavirus outbreak is likely only in the very early stages , and if it becomes as widespread as the flu , it will become a public health crisis unlike anything we have ever faced in modern times .
After taking a look at the numbers , hopefully you will understand what I am trying to say .
The W.H.O .
continues it ’ s concern for policing language instead of containing the coronavirus pandemic .
On Tuesday , the World Health Organization announced that the global death rate for COVID-19 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ feeling that number will continue to go up , but for the purposes of this article let ’ s assume that number if accurate .
As for the flu , the CDC says that there will be between 32 million and 45 million illnesses in the United States during this flu season , and somewhere between 18,000 and 46,000 deaths .
That means that the death rate from the flu this year will be about one-tenth of one percent .
So can we please stop with the comparisons between COVID-19 and the flu @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more deadly , and experts are warning that up to 70 percent of the global population could ultimately catch the virus .
If that happens , we will see a death toll in the tens of millions at a minimum .
Here in the United States , the death rate is running well above 3.4 percent so far .
Out of 118 confirmed cases , nine victims have died so far… I have a feeling that the death rate in the U.S. will go down once we start testing more people , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , coronavirus clusters are starting to pop up all over the nation .
For example , the number of victims in Santa Clara County has now risen to 11… Over on the east coast , a newly confirmed case in New York City is making headlines .
Authorities are telling us that it is a “ community spread case ” , and this particular victim just happens to be a lawyer with a firm in midtown Manhattan… Before he was finally diagnosed , was he spreading the virus to countless others in midtown @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the coming days .
As I discussed yesterday , the U.S. has been much slower than other nations to conduct widespread testing for the virus , and it looks like that was a major mistake .
Down in South Florida , one woman was recently told by her doctor that she probably has COVID-19 , but officials refused to test her for it… In what may be the first case of coronavirus in South Florida , a woman who recently returned home from Italy says she was told by doctors at Jackson @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has COVID-19 , but that they are unable to verify it because state and federal officials refused to conduct the necessary tests to confirm it .
“ The doctor himself told me that , you know , he thinks that the results of my [ preliminary ] tests mean that I most likely have the COVID-19 , but that the Department of Health did not want to pursue it further , ” said the woman , who requested that her name not be used to protect her privacy .
“ It was either @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that decided not to further pursue the inquiry .
But I was basically told that it is most likely that I have this virus and that I should self-quarantine.
” As Dr. Matt McCarthy has said , this refusal to test probable patients is a national scandal .
There is no excuse for this sort of negligence , and it has the potential to create all sorts of problems .
At this point , fear is spreading like wildfire all over the nation .
Due to concerns about COVID-19 , Twitter is asking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ work from home ” … Other companies are taking similar steps , and this will inevitably slow down the economy .
But this could be just the beginning .
If you can believe it , one NBA owner is actually saying that the NBA could eventually “ ban fans ” from games if things get bad enough… I hope we don ’ t get there either .
Because once we start banning public gatherings , we won ’ t be able to go back to normal until this pandemic is over .
And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ long time .
The Spanish Flu pandemic lasted for three years and killed tens of millions of people .
If what we are facing is similar , then all of our lives are about to change in a major way .
Sadly , some people are saying that if they get the virus they will actually purposely go into large crowds to try to spread it .
Here is one example… How sick in the head do you have to be to say something like that ?
We live at a time when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it is only going to get worse as time rolls along .
Hopefully by now most of my readers understand that we need to take COVID-19 very seriously .
This isn ’ t anything like the flu .
This is an extremely deadly virus that has the potential to kill millions of Americans .
Let us continue to keep praying that this outbreak will eventually subside , but let us also continue to brace ourselves for a worst case scenario .

COVID-19 is an extremely deadly virus, and nobody should be trying to downplay the severity of this outbreak.
By now, you have probably heard a lot of people try to convince you that COVID-19 is not that dangerous because the flu has killed far more people this winter.
And that is true. But what they aren’t telling you is that the death rate from the flu is extremely low.

This coronavirus outbreak is likely only in the very early stages, and if it becomes as widespread as the flu, it will become a public health crisis unlike anything we have ever faced in modern times.
After taking a look at the numbers, hopefully you will understand what I am trying to say.
The W.H.O. continues it’s concern for policing language instead of containing the coronavirus pandemic.
On Tuesday, the World Health Organization announced that the global death rate for COVID-19 is now 3.4 percent…
World health officials said Tuesday the case fatality rate for COVID-19 is 3.4% globally, higher than previous estimates of about 2%. “Globally, about 3.4% of reported COVID-19 cases have died,” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said during a press briefing at the agency’s headquarters in Geneva. In comparison, seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than 1% of those infected, he said.
I have a feeling that number will continue to go up, but for the purposes of this article let’s assume that number if accurate.
As for the flu, the CDC says that there will be between 32 million and 45 million illnesses in the United States during this flu season, and somewhere between 18,000 and 46,000 deaths.
That means that the death rate from the flu this year will be about one-tenth of one percent.
So can we please stop with the comparisons between COVID-19 and the flu?
COVID-19 is at least 34 times more deadly, and experts are warning that up to 70 percent of the global population could ultimately catch the virus.
If that happens, we will see a death toll in the tens of millions at a minimum.
Here in the United States, the death rate is running well above 3.4 percent so far. Out of 118 confirmed cases, nine victims have died so far…
The eighth and ninth persons confirmed to have died in the U.S. from the coronavirus lived in Washington state, just like the previous seven victims. Washington accounts for 27 of the 118 cases so far reported in the U.S., and state officials said 231 people are under public health supervision.
I have a feeling that the death rate in the U.S. will go down once we start testing more people, but we will see.
At this point, coronavirus clusters are starting to pop up all over the nation. For example, the number of victims in Santa Clara County has now risen to 11…
Santa Clara County announces 2 new cases of COVID-19 Total now 11.
Over on the east coast, a newly confirmed case in New York City is making headlines. Authorities are telling us that it is a “community spread case”, and this particular victim just happens to be a lawyer with a firm in midtown Manhattan…
The latest coronavirus case in New York City is a 50-year-old lawyer who resides in Westchester County, about 20 miles north of New York City, and is a partner at a firm based in midtown Manhattan, multiple sources confirmed to Business Insider. The office building is in the vicinity of Grand Central Terminal, which sees about 750,000 daily commuters.
Before he was finally diagnosed, was he spreading the virus to countless others in midtown Manhattan?
We shall see what happens in the coming days.
As I discussed yesterday, the U.S. has been much slower than other nations to conduct widespread testing for the virus, and it looks like that was a major mistake.
Down in South Florida, one woman was recently told by her doctor that she probably has COVID-19, but officials refused to test her for it…
In what may be the first case of coronavirus in South Florida, a woman who recently returned home from Italy says she was told by doctors at Jackson Memorial Hospital that she “likely” has COVID-19, but that they are unable to verify it because state and federal officials refused to conduct the necessary tests to confirm it. “The doctor himself told me that, you know, he thinks that the results of my [preliminary] tests mean that I most likely have the COVID-19, but that the Department of Health did not want to pursue it further,” said the woman, who requested that her name not be used to protect her privacy. “It was either the Department of Health or the CDC that decided not to further pursue the inquiry. But I was basically told that it is most likely that I have this virus and that I should self-quarantine.”
As Dr. Matt McCarthy has said, this refusal to test probable patients is a national scandal. There is no excuse for this sort of negligence, and it has the potential to create all sorts of problems.
At this point, fear is spreading like wildfire all over the nation. Due to concerns about COVID-19, Twitter is asking “its entire workforce” to “work from home”…
Twitter is asking its entire workforce of 5,000 people to work from home, part of its effort to keep employees safe and prevent the spread of the coronavirus. The company said working from home was mandatory for its workers in Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea, where there are higher rates of the COVID-19 disease.
Other companies are taking similar steps, and this will inevitably slow down the economy.
But this could be just the beginning. If you can believe it, one NBA owner is actually saying that the NBA could eventually “ban fans” from games if things get bad enough…
Marc Lasry, co-owner of the NBA’s Milwaukee Bucks, told CNBC on Tuesday that sporting events could possibly ban fans if the coronavirus outbreak worsens. “If you’re going to do it to basketball, you’re going to do it to baseball,” Lasry said on “Fast Money.” “I hope we don’t get there.”
I hope we don’t get there either.
Because once we start banning public gatherings, we won’t be able to go back to normal until this pandemic is over.
And sometimes pandemics can last for a very long time. The Spanish Flu pandemic lasted for three years and killed tens of millions of people. If what we are facing is similar, then all of our lives are about to change in a major way.
Sadly, some people are saying that if they get the virus they will actually purposely go into large crowds to try to spread it. Here is one example…
Denver Councilwoman Candi CdeBaca is getting major blowback over a controversial tweet sent on Friday. CdeBaca quoted a tweet that said, “For the record, if I do get the coronavirus I’m attending every MAGA rally I can.”
How sick in the head do you have to be to say something like that?
We live at a time when hearts are growing very cold, and it is only going to get worse as time rolls along.
Hopefully by now most of my readers understand that we need to take COVID-19 very seriously.
This isn’t anything like the flu. This is an extremely deadly virus that has the potential to kill millions of Americans.
Let us continue to keep praying that this outbreak will eventually subside, but let us also continue to brace ourselves for a worst case scenario.

More shocking leaked footage published by the BBC shows bodies piling up at a local morgue in Qom , said to be victims of the country ’ s spiraling coronavirus outbreak .

newswars--2020-03-04--Leftists Angry At Trump Donating Salary To Coronavirus Fight

President Trump donated his fourth quarter salary to the Department of Health and Human Services this week in an effort to help fight the Coronavirus , but leftists are angry about it because… Orange man bad .
The donation of $ 100,000 is part of Trump ’ s promise to never take any salary while he is President .
He has previously given away his salary to the Surgeon General ’ s office , border enforcement , and Veterans ’ Affairs , to name but a few .
The move was no where near good enough for leftists though , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( an obvious starting point ) : This guy was furious that the Orange man ’ s salary would only pay for 50 coronavirus tests : Presumably he has donated more money ?
This one called it a ‘ drop in the bucket ’ and got angry about Trump owning property : In an important counterpoint , these leftists want to know how “ we ” get back money Trump has spent on golfing : This one flat out denied that Trump is donating anything .
The proof ?
The check is dated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thought Trump could do something before announcing it ?
And this one repeated a fake narrative spread by Democrats that Trump defunded pandemic response : In reality , Trump is pushing pharmaceutical companies to accelerate a vaccine for the coronavirus , and working closely with the CDC to contain the outbreak .
In addition , Trump presided over enhanced border controls and blocking flights from infected areas weeks ago , while Democrats did nothing :

The move was no where near good enough for leftists though, who immediately compared the move to Hitler (an obvious starting point):
Hitler never took a salary. Now show his tax returns and document the millions he’s rinsed the tax payer for in terms of staying at his own properties, golf carts, and security for Eric. — Mike P Williams (@Mike_P_Williams) March 3, 2020

This pays for tests for less than 50 people. — Akilah Hughes (@AkilahObviously) March 3, 2020
Presumably he has donated more money?
This one called it a ‘drop in the bucket’ and got angry about Trump owning property:

Cool now do all of Trump’s golf trips using taxpayer funds. — Brian Tyler Cohen (@briantylercohen) March 3, 2020

Who’d have thought Trump could do something before announcing it?
And this one repeated a fake narrative spread by Democrats that Trump defunded pandemic response:

Food for our bugs
Most people are familiar with probiotics, friendly bacteria present in fermented foods like yogurt and sauerkraut. More recently, scientists have taken an interest in prebiotics — dietary compounds that humans cannot digest but serve as nourishment for our microbiome, or the trillions of bacteria residing within us. While not all fibers are prebiotics, many fibrous foods like leeks, artichokes, onions and certain whole grains are rich in them.
For the study, the researchers started adolescent male rats on either standard chow or chow infused with prebiotics and tracked an array of physiological measures before and after the rats were stressed.

Theirs was higher in dozens of them, including fatty acids, sugars and steroids which may, via gut-brain signaling pathways, influence behavior. The rats’ metabolome also looked different after stress.
For instance, the rats on the standard chow diet saw dramatic spikes in allopregnanolone precursor and Ketone Steroid, potentially sleep-disrupting metabolites, while those on the prebiotic diet saw no such spike.
“Our results reveal novel signals that come from gut microbes that may modulate stress physiology and sleep,” said Fleshner.
In search of a better sleeping pill
While prebiotic dietary fiber is certainly healthy, it’s uncertain whether just loading up on foods rich in it can promote sleep. The rats were fed very high doses of four specific prebiotics, including: galactooligosaccharides, which are present in lentils and cabbage; polydextrose (PDX) an FDA-approved food additive often used as a sweetener; lactoferrin, found in breast milk; and milk fat globular protein, abundant in dairy products.
“You’d probably have to eat a whole lot of lentils and cabbage to see any effect,” said Thompson.
Prebiotic supplements already abound on natural food store shelves. But Fleshner said it’s too soon to say whether a supplement or drug containing such compounds would be safe and effective for everyone. Depending on what their microbial make-up is, different people might respond differently.

Young children from low-income homes whose mothers reported frequent use of toxic chemicals such as household cleaners were more likely to show delays in language development by age 2 , a new study found .
In addition , the children scored lower on a test of cognitive development .

newswars--2020-03-04--Mars rover snaps its highest-resolution panorama yet

NASA ’ s Curiosity rover has captured its highest-resolution panorama yet of the Martian surface .
Composed of more than 1,000 images taken during the 2019 Thanksgiving holiday and carefully assembled over the ensuing months , the composite contains 1.8 billion pixels of Martian landscape .
The rover ’ s Mast Camera , or Mastcam , used its telephoto lens to produce the panorama ; meanwhile , it relied on its medium-angle lens to produce a lower-resolution , nearly 650-million-pixel panorama that includes the rover ’ s deck and robotic arm .
Both panoramas showcase “ Glen Torridon , ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sharp that Curiosity is exploring .
They were taken between Nov. 24 and Dec. 1 , when the mission team was out for the Thanksgiving holiday .
Sitting still with few tasks to do while awaiting the team to return and provide its next commands , the rover had a rare chance to image its surroundings from the same vantage point several days in a row .
