British Cell Phone Company in ‘ Early Stages ’ of Providing Location Data to UK Gov ’ t For Coronavirus The British cell phone company O2 has confirmed they are in the “ early stages ” of discussions with the government to provide anonymous location data .
Reports emerged on Thursday evening that the British government had asked O2 , one of the leading cell phone companies in the UK , to provide them with location data to see if people were following the social distancing measures that the government had released in order to tackle the coronavirus .
Some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to pubs or restaurants , and avoiding mass gatherings .
In an email to National File , O2 said that there is nothing in place yet with the government , only “ discussions at early stages , ” and that despite having the capability to provide modelling support , it would only ever relate to mass movements of people , and not individuals .
They claim that this operates completely under GDPR and “ existing privacy legislation.
” Besides zero rating access to NHS and other support websites , we were asked along @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who are working tirelessly to map and control the spread of coronavirus in the UK .
Using our mobile technology , we have the potential to build models that help to predict broadly how the virus might move .
This would in no way be able to identify or map individuals , and operates within strict privacy guidelines .
Many people were astounded that the government would request the data , with one Twitter user calling it a “ breach of privacy and human rights , ” and another comparing the decision to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s book “ 1984 , ” set in a dystopian future United Kingdom .
Alexander Martin , the technology reporter for Sky News , noted that the UK government were only using location data from O2 , and not from any other cell network , as combining multiple datasets would make the project “ high risk processing.
” Martin said that the government intended to use “ aggregated and anonymised data to observe trends in public movements , particularly in London , ” and while there was no “ obvious cause for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ certainly showed there are issues regarding government transparency .
Jim Killock , the director of Open Rights Group , told Sky News that the government “ needs to maintain public trust , which means they must declare what they are doing , under which laws ” : Currently , 143 people have died in the UK from coronavirus , and there have been 3,269 confirmed cases of the illness .

5 Reasons to Doubt China ’ s Claim It Has Stopped Seeing Coronavirus Cases China ’ s report of zero new coronavirus cases sparked celebration across the globe , with some viewing the communist regime ’ s Thursday report as a beacon of hope .
While global efforts to curb the impact of the virus continue , there is reason to doubt China ’ s “ milestone ” claim of no new local coronavirus infections .

There are still cases of people reporting symptoms , but China is reportedly refusing to test them .
One patient in China @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the anti-communist publication the Epoch Times that her condition deteriorated after officials released her from a “ makeshift ” hospital .
The city has since shut temporary hospitals down , a move which coincided with Chinese leader Xi Jinping ’ s Wuhan visit this month .
While Chinese officials claim that the hospitals are no longer in high demand due to the purported decrease in cases , some , such as the patient who spoke to the Epoch Times , said people exhibiting symptoms of the virus are continuing to suffer : Fu @ @ @ @ @ @ @ being released who has not recovered .
After the city announced that all makeshift hospitals would be closed , the Wuhan expo center dispatched a bus to transport patients to quarantine centers .
Patients in severe condition were transferred to hospitals .
Others who were deemed healthy returned home .
Fu said that she spoke with the roughly 20 other patients on the bus .
They similarly had lung damage .
A 36-year-old man who was also at the makeshift hospital where Fu stayed died 36 hours after being discharged , according to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ no new cases to report if the government is closing makeshift hospitals and refusing to see patients .
That could be one way the Chinese government is able to report misleading , albeit blatantly false , numbers and thereby spread false optimism .

Netflix To Cut Traffic Stream To European Networks By 25 % For 30 Days Netflix announced on Thursday afternoon that it will cut traffic to its European networks by 25 % for 30 days to preserve internet functionality amid the coronavirus crisis , following discussions with European Commissioner Thierry Breton .

European Union commissioner Thierry Breton had raised the issue with Netflix CEO Reed Hastings and suggested via Twitter that people at home not stream video in high definition if they can and instead watch in standard definition .
“ Teleworking & streaming help a lot but infrastructures might be in strain , ” Breton tweeted Wednesday .
“ To secure Internet access for all , let ’ s # SwitchToStandard definition when HD is not necessary.
” After additional discussion between Hastings and Commissioner Breton , Netflix said in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ given the extraordinary challenges raised by the coronavirus – Netflix has decided to begin reducing bit rates across all our streams in Europe for 30 days .
We estimate that this will reduce Netflix traffic on European networks by around 25 % while also ensuring a good quality service for our members.

” Netflix did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its various streams would get .
Streaming standard-def movies or TV shows require about one-third the bandwidth of HD video , about one gigabyte for SD video in an hour , compared to 3GB for HD , according to Netflix .

An Italian virologist says that the country ’ s attempt not to appear “ racist ” in the early says of the coronavirus outbreak crippled the ability to properly respond to the pandemic .
Professor of Virology and Microbiology at the University of Padova Dr. Giorgio Palù told CNN that measures imposing travel restrictions and border controls were taken too late due to fears over political correctness .
“ There was a proposal to isolate people coming from the epicenter , coming from China , ” Palù told CNN .
“ Then it became seen as racist , but they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Italy is now the hardest hit country in the world in terms of coronavirus deaths , with 3,405 people losing their lives .
The need to minimize potential “ racism ” and “ stigmatization ” in response to the coronavirus was a policy endorsed by the World Health Organization itself on numerous occasions and adopted by the left-wing Italian government .
As we previously highlighted , the Mayor of Florence launched a nationwide campaign at the start of February encouraging Italians to hug Chinese people on the street to “ stem the hatred.

NASA Warns Two Asteroids Could Cause Atmospheric Explosion Over Earth This Week As if 2020 weren ’ t overwhelming enough , in addition to the potential start of World War 3 , the massive fires in Australia , the locust plague in the Middle East and Africa , and the novel coronavirus , we are now dealing with multiple asteroids hurtling towards Earth .
One of the asteroids may even collide with Earth ’ s atmosphere resulting in an atmospheric explosion tonight !
Two asteroids following Earth ’ s intersecting orbit known as 2020 EF and 2020 DP4 are approaching @ @ @ @ @ @ @ NASA indicates the space rocks are big enough to create violent explosions in the atmosphere if they come too close to the Earth .
The asteroids are being closely monitored by NASA ’ s Center for Near-Earth Object Studies ( CNEOS ) .
According to a report by IB Times , CNEOS estimates the 2020 EF asteroid has a diameter of 98 feet , making it a little longer than the distance between baseball diamond bases , with a velocity of 10,000 mph .
CNEOS sates that 2020 EF is what is known @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the object follows a normal orbit that crosses Earth ’ s path .
NASA ’ s orbit diagram for 2020 EF shows the asteroid mimics a very wide orbit around the sun and almost follows the exact same path as Earth .
The good news is NASA states in their diagram that the asteroid will have multiple near-approaches between 2020 EF and our planet—but it won ’ t hit us .
According to NASA , as a result of their size , 2020 EF will most likely not cause an impact event .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ pieces if it enters Earth ’ s atmosphere .
However , it will still cause an explosion in the sky that could be dangerous .
The last asteroid atmospheric explosion took place over the city of Chelyabinsk , Russia , which produced a flash 30 times brighter than the Sun and caused 180 cases of eye pain and 70 cases of temporary flash blindness .
So make sure you don ’ t stare at it with the naked eye , similar to how you shouldn ’ t stare directly at the sun , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
2020 DP4 is coming our way and will cause a similar space spectacle this week on March 22nd at 2:36 p.m EST .
Compared to 2020 EF , 2020 DP4 is much larger in diameter at 180 feet wide and traveling at a faster velocity rate at 18,000 mph according to CNEOS .
While 2020 EF is classified as an Aten asteroid , 2020 DP4 on the other hand belongs to the Apollo family of space rocks .
Although the two asteroids are labeled differently , they are known to intersect Earth @ @ @ @ @ @ @ its way around the Sun .
CNEOS states 2020 EF is expected to fly past the Earth from a distance of 0.04241 astronomical units or approximately 4 million miles .
Meanwhile , 2020 DP4 will approach Earth from a much closer distance which according to CNEOS , is only 0.00901 astronomical units or around 840,000 miles .

Last year , NASA also awarded SpaceX a $ 69 million contract to redirect an asteroid off its intended path under the Double Asteroid Redirection Test ( DART ) program , which uses a technique known as a kinetic impactor .

British pub chain vows to stay open amid coronavirus , but with social distance between drinkers Major British pub chain J.D .
Wetherspoon plans to stay open in defiance of government advice amid the coronavirus pandemic , but has vowed to implement social distancing between drinkers .
U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson has advised the public to avoid pubs and restaurants , but the government has so far stopped short of an enforced lockdown .
The country has now confirmed 2,716 cases of coronavirus , according to Johns Hopkins University .
Wetherspoon Chairman Tim Martin told CNBC that the government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and likened the closure of pubs to the shutting down of Parliament .

Bill Gates : Countries Could “ Bounce Back In Weeks ” After Coronavirus Lockdown Bill Gates , Microsoft ’ s founder a vocal advocate for global vaccine enforcement has said that the countries who have been in lockdown will “ bounce back ” in weeks .
Hopefully , he ’ s right because Americans are facing what could be a permanent loss of what little freedom we have left in exchange for a false sense of security .
In Wuhan , China , the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak , no new cases were reported in the past 24 hours @ @ @ @ @ @ @ toBloomberg .
That is optimistic news .
However , on the other side of the world , New York ’ s new cases doubled only opening the door for more tyranny and control over people who are begging for the government to take care of them .
What we ’ ve experienced due to this outbreak has been nothing short of disastrous .
The media has people panicking , not preparing , and people are being subjected to the worst types of enslavement by their governments .
Is containing the virus worth every @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more so than we already are ) ?
Bill Gates is actually saying that countries can get back on their feet rather quickly .
In an Ask Me Anything session on Reddit , Gates was asked about how long “ this ” will last , according to a report by CNBC News .
“ If a country does a good job with testing and ‘ shut down ’ then within 6-10 weeks they should see very few cases and be able to open back up , ” he responded .
“ The current @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in rich countries .
With the right actions including the testing and social distancing ( which I call ‘ shut down ’ ) within 2-3 months , the rich countries should have avoided high levels of infection , ” Gates wrote .

Help out your neighbor if you can , even if it ’ s just to give them a roll of toilet paper .

Will Smith bizarrely claims he feels responsible for confusion over coronavirus Hollywood star Will Smith just showed the world how self-centered and desperate to stay relevant he really is by bizarrely claiming that he feels responsible for confusion over the coronavirus pandemic because of his 2007 movie “ I Am Legend.
” Smith was appearing on his family ’ s Facebook chat show Red Table Talk , where they discussed social distancing and other things that are being done to stop the coronavirus .
Things took a truly strange turn when Smith brought up his 13-year-old movie in which he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ catastrophic plague that wipes out most of civilization , ” according to Breitbart News .
Smith actually had the nerve to say that he feels “ responsible for a lot of the misinformation ” that is out there about coronavirus because of this movie .
“ When I was preparing for I Am Legend , my character was a virologist so I had an opportunity in my preparation for the role to go to the CDC and there was a basic foundational comprehension of viruses and viral pathogens that I developed , ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” star said .
“ It really changed my life and how I looked at the world , and there ’ s basic concepts that people do not understand.
” “ So I wanted us to have the opportunity to go through the basics and bring in the experts , ” Smith added .
Thank you sooo much , Will !
What we all need is a Hollywood elitist enlightening the rest of us about the dangers of the coronavirus .
Oh , wait…we actually don ’ t need that at all !
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ narcissistic behavior that makes Hollywood stars so insufferable to the average American .
Smith has lost touch with reality so much so that he actually thinks that Americans are confused about the coronavirus because of a forgotten movie he made thirteen years ago .
Smith isn ’ t the only Hollywood star who is desperately trying to stay relevant in the coronavirus era .
With virtually all Hollywood productions shut down , stars are having to get creative when it comes to finding ways to get attention for themselves in front of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cringe-worthy celebrity sing-a-long of the Beatles song “ Imagine ” came to be .
It is going to be a very looong pandemic if celebrities keep this up .
Why can ’ t they just shush and social distance in silence ?
Haven ’ t we all been through enough ?

‘Ant-man’ star Evangeline Lilly slammed for dismissing coronavirus, refusing to self-isolate—Says she values ‘freedom’

‘ Ant-man ’ star Evangeline Lilly slammed for dismissing coronavirus , refusing to self-isolate—Says she values ‘ freedom ’ Actress Evangeline Lilly of “ Ant-Man ” fame is being slammed this week after she belittled the coronavirus as nothing more than a “ respiratory ” flu and refused to self isolate , saying that she values her “ freedom.
” Lilly took to Instagram earlier this week to post a photo of her morning cup of tea and to boast that she had just dropped her children off at their activities despite calls for American families to stay home due @ @ @ @ @ @ @ my kids off at gymnastics camp .
They all washed their hands before going in .
They are playing and laughing .
# businessasusual , ” wrote Lilly , 40 .
Lilly immediately started receiving backlash for her post , but she was quick to defend herself , telling one fan that though she is living with her sick father , she is prioritizing the freedom to live her life over everything else .
“ I am living with my father at the moment , who has stage four lukemia [ sic ] @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the moment .
I have two young kids , ” Lilly wrote .
“ Some people value their lives over freedom , some people value freedom over their lives .
We all make our choices .
With love and respect .
EL.
” In another comment , Lilly downplayed the virus as simply a “ respiratory flu ” and questioned the way the U.S. government has responded to it .
“ I ’ m having those conversations daily with people in my inner circle and am always considering and reconsidering my position , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wrote .
“ Where we are right now feels a lot too close to Marshall Law for my comfort already , all in the name of a respiratory flu .
It ’ s unnerving.
” “ I think we all need to slow down , take a breath and look at the facts we are being presented with , ” Lilly added in another comment .
“ They do not add up to the all-out , global lockdown , control , pandemonia and insanity we are experiencing .
I hope that people will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are soon .
Sending you loving prayers.
” The actress also appeared to float a conspiracy theory about the timing of this pandemic , writing simply , “ There ’ s something every election year.
” Despite Lilly ’ s lack of concern , the coronavirus is wreaking havoc on the world , with John Hopkins University saying that the number of cases worldwide has surpassed 200,000 .
Governments all over the world have been urging people to stay home and self-isolate in the hopes of getting the virus under control .
Lilly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this pandemic to herself , because now she ’ s exposed herself to the world as a total moron .
More celebrities should take note of this and realize that they might want to think twice before they open their mouths to discuss someone in politics or in the news .

prisonplanet--2020-03-20--Profs: Trump is ‘racist’ for calling coronavirus the ‘Chinese Virus’

Profs : Trump is ‘ racist ’ for calling coronavirus the ‘ Chinese Virus ’ With the threat of COVID-19 , the novel Coronavirus , intensifying by the hour , President Donald Trump and his Coronavirus task force are mobilized to halt the ongoing threat , but some professors have decided to focus on Trump ’ s allegedly “ racist ” name for the virus .
On Monday , Trump stated in a tweet , “ the United States will be powerfully supporting those industries , like Airlines and others , that are particularly affected by the Chinese Virus .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ !
” Marie Myung-Ok Lee , instructor and Writer in Residence at the Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race at Columbia University , suggested in a Salon op-ed that coronavirus fears have “ transmogrified into unchecked xenophobia and racism.
” She further suggests that “ Trump-enabled racists @ -ing him on Twitter ” are exacerbating the problem .
Lee suggests that white supremacy and xenophobia are responsible for the fact that Trump and others have dubbed the coronavirus , which originated in Wuhan , China , the “ Chinese Virus.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can be a factor even in the way that we name viruses — such as when the language around it , purportedly objective and scientific , stems from a white-centered , xenophobic perspective.
” “ Trump ’ s overheated rhetoric on migrants and people of color — and ‘ s**thole countries , ’ as he calls much of the world — are absolutely fanning the flames of the racist response to the Coronavirus , ” wrote Lee , adding that “ it is important to recognize that this bias against Asians is nothing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ engine of white supremacist culture and language continually hums underground until something like 2019-nCoV makes it visible.
” In direct response to Trump ’ s tweet , Lee tweeted , “ Anyone who calls # TrumpVirus C-virus [ Chinese-Virus ] is racist but we already knew that.
” “ Trump is literally pushing fear to metastasize into racism — If you think you ’ re a good person , don ’ t let it… ” she added .
Lee is not the only university teacher who holds concern for the president ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Chou was quoted as saying “ the comments made by President Trump intensifies the xenophobia and racism that ’ s become rampant against Asians and Asian Americans globally .
He ’ s fueling fears against Chinese specifically.
” Chou believes that , as a result of the language used by the president , “ people of Asian ancestry across the globe may face collateral damage , ” claiming the President ’ s statements are “ dangerous and erroneously assign blame to people who are as susceptible to the disease as anyone else worldwide.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Turning Point USA chapter at GSU , said the professor does not speak for GSU in condemning Trump .
“ I ’ ve seen a lot of videos disrespecting the president…I find it hypocritical , ” Moore told Campus Reform .
Moore further said that he views the politically-motivated attacks on the president as “ disgusting ” because doing so in a time where there needs to be unity “ shows hypocrisy and malice.
” However , the rhetoric from Chou is not a surprise to Moore , who claims that political tension @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has experienced students and faculty getting “ violent and angry ” with his TPUSA chapter .
He told Campus Reform , “ People scream in our face when posting free market stuff and tabling.
” Moore says he himself has even experienced personal attacks from faculty , claiming that he has “ gotten in trouble for asking questions ” that push back against the left-wing ideas promoted in class .
Moore says that “ the college is indoctrinating students by redefining everything , ” citing marriage , sex , and other social issues @ @ @ @ @ @ @ joined in on both sides of the argument .
Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton tweeted Wednesday that “ the president is turning to racist rhetoric to distract from his failures to take the coronavirus seriously early on… ” Political commentator and host of the Ben Shapiro Show , Ben Shapiro , also added his thoughts : “ It is not only NOT racist to call coronavirus the Chinese virus – a term directly targeting the Chinese government , not Chinese people – it is both accurate and necessary as the Chinese government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s****y government for this.

prisonplanet--2020-03-20--Wikipedia Debates Whether to Rename Spanish Flu ‘1918 Influenza Pandemic’

Wikipedia is debating whether to rename the Spanish Flu to the “ 1918 Influenza Pandemic , ” a clear reaction to the Chinese Virus/Coronavirus argument .
President Trump has recently taken to referring to the coronavirus outbreak , also known as Covid-19 , as the “ Chinese Virus , ” and has been accused of racism and xenophobia for doing so .
A common response to the leftists accusing him of bigotry is to point out that the Spanish Flu is the most common name for the flu outbreak that took place after the end of the First World War @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is being retconned .
On the Talk page for the “ Spanish Flu ” Wikipedia article , there is a raging debate going on as to whether to rename the page to the “ 1918 Influenza Pandemic.
” Some commentors claimed that the name “ Spanish Flu ” is racist , just as “ Chinese Flu ” is racist , with others swearing that they definitely hadn ’ t referred to the pandemic as the “ Spanish Flu ” before , honest , and one who even claimed that it was a “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ knew the name change was due to the coronavirus : • “ It is well established today that this flu was neither originated nor particularly spread in Spain .
Furthermore , it is also well established that naming pandemias after regions is misleading ( from a mechanistic point of view ) and also stigmatizing .
Why not having then the official name 1918 flu as the primary article name which other names redirect to ?
” • “ The other context I see is that the term ‘ Spanish flu ’ is a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ era trying to apply blame to a culture .
The Spanish–American War was just before this and there was still American intent to blame Spanish for anything bad.
” • “ 1918-19 flu pandemic is a well-used and well-recognised term , very possibly the most-used and the most-recognised term .
I suspect Spanish flu could actually be the less well-known name in the UK ; maybe I ’ m an exception but I don ’ t think I heard the term ‘ Spanish flu ’ for a long time after I knew about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it matters , but I actually knew this in passing as the 1918 pandemic ; I only became aware that it was also called the Spanish flu recently ( during the current COVID-19 pandemic ) .
” • “ Support , for the same reason we should consider renaming towns/rivers with prejudicial names.
” • “ It is simply irresponsible to call this the stigmatic name when alternatives exist and are overwhelmingly used by reliable sources .
We should also include a ‘ Right wing conspiracy theory ’ section that addresses the debunked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is only being changed because of COVID-19 .
I can find us some sources that identify the origin of this conspiracy theory as a bad faith attempt to mask the sinophobia of the Trump administration by comparing it to terms that have been defunct for decades.
” READ MORE : FBI Uses Coronavirus to Shut Down Online Public Records Operation Many other Wikipedia editors knew exactly what was going on however , and fought back : • “ As Wikieditors are trying to literally change the history in this encyclopedia to prevent ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from calling the current crisis the “ Wuhan ” or “ China coronavirus ” epidemic .
An encyclopedia is no place for this retconning nonsense .
Shame on you , and on what you ’ ve done in the coronavirus article .
• “ I have heard this term a couple of times in my life , all of which were in the last week .
Every other time this phenomenon has been referred to it is under the title ‘ Spanish Flu.
’ The concept that this terminology that dates to a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ farce being pushed by people who are interested mostly in politics , not in medicine , history , or medical history.

” • “ This would be a totally pointless move , the pandemic is widely known as the Spanish flu , the only reason this is being proposed is because of modern political controversies , which are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We wouldn ’ t be here if Wuhan coronavirus wasn ’ t in the title of the original name of the article everyone ’ s reading these days .
Changing this article title at this time is dangerous to the entire Wikipedia project : how far will the newspeak project go ?
” • “ Why the sudden interest in moving this now ?
The only reason I can see for the timing is that it is support the Chinese Communist Party propaganda .
The World Health Organisation went along with renaming the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s Republic of China is one of their major donors .
Is wikipedia also bought and paid for ?
” It ’ s not just Wikipedia that is guilty of this .
Leftists and Democrats across the board are attempting to rename the Spanish Flu in a thinly veiled attack at President Trump .
A memo from the Joe Biden campaign referred to the Spanish Flu as “ the 1918 flu pandemic , ” a New York Times columnist said it wasn ’ t “ fair or accurate to call the 1918 pandemic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Washington Examiner reporter said calling it the Spanish Flu was “ racist and foreshadowed American nativism , ” to give just a few examples .
New York Mayor Bill de Blasio also said in a press conference on Tuesday that the coronavirus is “ one part the Great Recession , one part the Great Depression , one part the 1918 flu epidemic.
” The memory-hole efforts by the left will likely only increase in the coming weeks .

prisonplanet--2020-03-20--Why Are So Many People In Italy Dying Of The Coronavirus?

Why Are So Many People In Italy Dying Of The Coronavirus ?
One of the great mysteries of this coronavirus pandemic has been the widely varying death rates that we have been witnessing all over the globe .
For example , the death rate in Italy has been many times higher than the death rate in South Korea , and that has greatly puzzled the experts .
Initially I thought that perhaps Italy was dealing with a different strain of the virus than South Korea was , and that may still turn out to be true once we learn more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that I wanted to share with my readers , because it has to do with something that might be in your medicine cabinet right now .
Health authorities in Europe are now warning that ibuprofen may accelerate the multiplication of the virus , and they are instructing everyone not to use it .
On Saturday , the health minister of France sparked headlines all over the globe when he tweeted the following… Unfortunately , many people in Europe have been immediately reaching for ibuprofen once they get the virus because they want something @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pain .
In fact , researchers discovered that most Italians that developed serious complications once they caught the coronavirus had been taking ibuprofen at home… They studied why the disease pathway in Italy is more serious , finding that most patients took ibuprofen at home .
Researchers joined the virus and ibuprofen in the laboratory and came to the conclusion that administering ibuprofen accelerates multiplication of the virus and is related to a more serious course of the disease .
They recommend to avoid ibuprofen and to administer paracetamol , aspirin , diclofenac @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was quoted as saying : “ We have just been sent a medical alert that no one is to use anti-inflammatories ( e.g .
Ibruprofen , Voltarol , naproxen , and others ) for pain or high temperature .
Use paracetamol instead .
There seems to be a link between severe cases of COVID-19 affecting young people with no underlying illnesses and taking anti-inflammatories .
Initial reports started coming from French doctors on Friday .
This has been confirmed by infectious diseases consultants here – there are four young people in ICU in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all were taking anti-inflammatories and there are concerns this has caused a more severe illness.
” This information needs to get out to everyone as quickly as possible , but so far the mainstream media in the United States has been very slow to pick up on this story .
And that is extremely unfortunate , because accurate information could make the difference between life and death in a lot of cases .
On Facebook , a British man named Dan Collins shared what happened when he gave his very young daughter ibuprofen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of you that have children please read If your child has symptoms of corona virus , DO NOT give them ibuprofen Amelia ’ s been unwell since Tuesday , cough , fever , cold .
This morning she came into my room and got into my bed burning hot and not wanting to get up .
Anyone that knows Amelia knows that this isn ’ t like her at all !
Once she ’ s awake she ’ s awake and spends the day bouncing off the walls !
We took her temperature @ @ @ @ @ @ @ every other symptom of corona virus , so called 111 who said they ’ d send out paramedics within 2 hours to check on her We couldn ’ t get calpol anywhere in staple hill yesterday so got nurofen instead thinking nothing of it , within an hour of giving her nurofen she dropped dramatically .
She was panting while trying to breathe , her heart rate was very rapid , she couldn ’ t keep her eyes open , couldn ’ t lift her head up , her body was shaking , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her temperature had risen to 39.4 !
We called back up and they sent out an emergency ambulance , once the paramedics got here they managed to bring her temp and stats down a bit , they ’ re still higher than normal but not dangerous high anymore .
Now she ’ s back on calpol she ’ s back to just being her poorly self .
The paramedics only told us while here that were not to give her ibuprofen !
The paramedic said about self isolating and calling back if her @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I asked if it ’ s just for the 7 days as it ’ s already been 5 days but they said that as she has all symptoms were to keep her isolated until all symptoms are gone .
So please don ’ t give them ibuprofen !
For those that aren ’ t familiar with “ Nurofen ” , the primary active ingredient it contains is ibuprofen .
If we don ’ t get the word out about this , a lot of otherwise mild cases could become very serious , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
In the United Kingdom , one doctor is already warning of a complete and utter national nightmare .
The following comes from an article entitled “ I ’ m a Doctor in Britain .
We ’ re Heading Into the Abyss.
” … Ten days ago , I was asked to see a patient .
I ’ m a respiratory specialist in an intensive-care unit at a hospital in London , so it wasn ’ t surprising that the patient needed a ventilator .
It seemed fairly typical .
But the patient @ @ @ @ @ @ @ our hospital ’ s first case and one of nearly 2,000 people who have so far tested positive in Britain .
I hadn ’ t worn a mask .
Soon I developed a cough .
Though I experienced neither fever nor breathlessness , I was told to self-isolate for 14 days .
That ’ s where I am now , in self-isolation .
And I ’ m not the only one from my hospital .
After just one patient with Covid-19 , a quarter of our junior staff are off with coughs and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ A single case of the coronavirus has wreaked havoc in our hospital .
Of course the U.S. is facing a similar scenario .
In fact , New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio just warned that his city “ will run out of medical supplies ” in just a matter of weeks… And New York City pediatric surgeon Cornelia Griggs just wrote an open letter to the New York Times in which she proclaimed that “ the sky is falling ” , and she ominously warned that we are about to face an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are not ready for… Alarmist is not a word anyone has ever used to describe me before .
I ’ m a board-certified surgeon and critical care specialist who spent much of my training attending to traumas in the emergency room and doing the rounds at Harvard hospitals ’ intensive care units .
I ’ m now in my last four months of training as a pediatric surgeon in New York City .
Part of my job entails waking in the middle of the night to rush to the children ’ s hospital @ @ @ @ @ @ @ life support called ECMO , a service required when a child ’ s lungs are failing even with maximum ventilator support .
Scenarios that mimic end-stage Covid-19 are part of my job .
Panic is not in my vocabulary ; the emotion has been drilled out of me in nine years of training .
This is different .
We are living in a global public health crisis moving at a speed and scale never witnessed by living generations .
The cracks in our medical and financial systems are being splayed open like a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ plays out , life will forever look a little different for all of us .
Anyone that is not taking this outbreak seriously at this point is just being delusional .
One patient that survived the virus says that she constantly felt like she had glass in her lungs , the Washington Post is projecting that 1.1 million Americans could die in a “ worst-case scenario ” , and the virus is now starting to make a big time comeback in countries where it was thought to be contained .
It appears that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ virus for a long time to come , and it is absolutely critical that we get people the information that they desperately need .
Unfortunately , many in the mainstream media appear to be more concerned about what their advertisers will think , and that is extremely unfortunate .

Calls Increase for MSM to Stop Airing Trump Live : ‘ You Will Get People Killed ’ Calls are increasing for cable networks to stop airing President Donald Trump ’ s press conferences live as critics believe Trump is turning White House news briefings into virtual campaign rallies that can “ get people killed ” with lies about the Coronavirus crisis .
The pressure only increased after Trump ’ s Friday briefing .
The Atlantic ’ s James Fallows believes the attention-starved Trump is turning the press conferences into “ virtual campaign ” rallies and Trump would actually lose interest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not cover the briefings live .
“ Also , as a practical matter , if the briefings were no longer covered live , Trump would lose interest in attending himself , ” Fallows argues .

Coronavirus is devastating Italy , but one town says its testing regime is containing the outbreak COVID-19 has killed more people in Italy than any other country .
The death toll is now higher than China ’ s , and the number of infections continues to grow .

Italy ’ s Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte imposed a nationwide lockdown @ @ @ @ @ @ @ collapse of the system ” .
But one small town in the country ’ s north says it is doing surprisingly well .

prisonplanet--2020-03-21--Israel Debates ‘Total Suspension Of Individual Freedom’ In Knesset Intel Hearing

Is this where we ’ re all headed ?
Will the “ Israeli model ” soon be the reality across the West amid the coronavirus pandemic ?
After Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced last Saturday that authorities will tap the country ’ s ‘ counter-terror ’ technology and systems to combat the “ invisible enemy ” of Covid-19 , Israeli media is now reporting the government is actually considering the “ total suspension of individual freedom ” — as a new Haaretz headline reads .
Israel ’ s public health services chief is now urging just that : Sigal Sadetsky @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Secret Services this week that “ A lockdown and personal monitoring of people , and a total halt to personal freedoms ” is urgently necessary .
The public health chief ’ s alarming remarks raised eyebrows among lawmakers in the emergency session .
When pressed on what the “ halt to personal freedoms ” would entail , she emphasized that going beyond a mere curfew was needed – in short a total lockdown on a national level .
Haaretz reports : Consider too this shocking exchange between an Israeli lawmaker and health services @ @ @ @ @ @ @ concedes that the state needs to be given totalitarian powers like China in order to combat the pandemic : Ashkenazi then asked : “ When did they start it , and how effective was it ?
” Sadetsky : “ It ’ s about when you start and how strenuously you apply it , because the fact that it was all collapsing there … there was no doubt about it .
Everyone will do the same .
How do we see it ?
They will do it after the collapse and then they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : “ Lockdown ?
” Sadetsky : “ A lockdown , while personally monitoring people and placing a total suspension on individual freedom.
” MK Yair Lapid ( Kahol Lavan ) tried several times to point out that China is not a democratic country and , therefore , its situation is different to Israel ’ s .
The health officials did not respond directly , but reiterated that both the timing and strength of the response were critical , and therefore there was scope to approve the extreme measures .
Ashkenazi noted that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ affect a great many people , because they wouldn ’ t only be applied to those infected but also those who were in their proximity .
Bar Siman Tov confirmed this .
So what ’ s being proposed is far beyond merely applying to those quarantined or believed exposures , but broadly and bluntly across communities , cities , and towns .
Previously an opposition party leader from Meretz party , Nitzan Horowitz , pushed back against Netanyahu ’ s plans for blanket counter-terror measures employed in the crisis , noting that tracking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ means are liable to result in a severe violation of privacy and basic civil liberties.
” Meanwhile , former US special forces soldier and now journalist Jack Murphy recently put it more bluntly and articulated what everyone ’ s thinking : As we said before , this “ 1984 scenario ” is likely soon to come to your country , and a neighborhood near you — if not already .

Left-Wing Journos Whine About Doctor-Advised Social Distancing , Say It Causes ‘ White Nationalism ’ As the global economy and the lives of working class families are upended and threatened by the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic , left-wing media and antifascist propagandists are trying to convince people that the real threat is not the virus or societal upheaval , but “ white nationalism.
” Rolling Stone , the publication that peddled and later retracted the publicly debunked Duke lacrosse team and Emma “ Mattress Girl ” Sulkowicz fake rape stories , decided to publish an article on Wednesday titled “ How @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in White Nationalism.
” Social distancing is the practice of nonpharmaceutical control actions that are integral to slowing the spread of contagious disease , such as staying home and away from close proximity to other people .
Social distancing has been universally recommended by epidemiologists and doctors as the most effective method to contain the pandemic and save the lives of those most vulnerable , but Rolling Stone appears to be concerned that social distancing could lead to a rise in wrongthink and unfashionable opinions .
In the article – which relies heavily @ @ @ @ @ @ @ legally embattled fringe-left Southern Poverty Law Center – writer EJ Dickson says , “ Anti-extremism experts are ‘ quite concerned ’ about hateful rhetoric spiking in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic — not just because of a rise in anti-Asian sentiment related to the virus , but also due to people in self-quarantine being more exposed to extremist movements online.
” As the numbers of hospitalizations and level of public unrest grows by the day , Rolling Stone focuses on “ anti-Semitic sentiment ” that it claims is “ widespread in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ also references “ conspiracy theories about COVID-19 ’ s origin centering on Jewish philanthropist George Soros ” and concerns “ about the impact the COVID-19 pandemic would have on hate groups ’ ability to recruit and radicalize new members.
” Since being published earlier this week , the Rolling Stone piece was shared on Twitter by antifa accounts and verified left-wing journalist accounts .
Doctors have warned that countersignalling the need for social distancing could lead to a much more dangerous virus scenario , such as that seen in Italy and Spain .

Americans are split on whether to trust news media with information regarding the coronavirus outbreak , according to a new poll .
As Statista ’ s Willem Roper notes , a joint poll conducted by NPR , PBS NewsHour and Marist , shows that 47 percent of U.S. adults responded by saying “ not very much ” or “ not at all ” when asked how much they trusted news media with coronavirus information .
This poll also included questions asking how much Americans trusted President Donald Trump , with 60 percent saying they didn ’ t trust him with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ experts , with 13 percent saying they had little to no trust .
Unsurprisingly , Americans views on the news media were split along partisan lines .
For Democrats , only 33 percent said they had little to no trust in the news media .
Republicans , however , responded at a substantial 60 percent on their lack of confidence in the news media handling coronavirus information .
Independents were equally high in their skepticism at 47 percent .

China Orders Citizens To Stop Working At US News Outlets In Beijing China has escalated its war on US news outlets – ordering at least seven Chinese nationals in Beijing to stop working for American news outlets , according to the Committee to Protect Journalists .
Those ordered dismissed include employees for the New York Times , Voice of America and two other outlets , according to the report .

New York Health Officials Told Residents to Congregate in Huge Crowds in “ Defiance ” of Coronavirus Back in February , health officials in New York told residents to congregate in huge crowds in “ defiance ” of coronavirus , a move that could have exposed thousands of people to COVID-19 .
New York City Health Commissioner Oxiris Barbot posted a tweet on February 9 urging citizens to flock to Chinatown in large numbers to celebrate the lunar new year while suggesting that advice to avoid crowds was “ misinformation.
” “ Today our city is celebrating the # LunarNewYear @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tradition with a rich history in our city .
I want to remind everyone to enjoy the parade and not change any plans due to misinformation spreading about # coronavirus , ” she wrote .
On the same day , Mark D. Levine , Chair of New York City Council health committee , lauded how “ huge crowds gathering in NYC ’ s Chinatown ” was a “ powerful show of defiance of # coronavirus scare , ” tweeting four images of large groups of people gathered to celebrate the occasion .
