Questioning the Clampdown
Will people lose faith when they find out they are expected to get the virus anyway?
By Holman W. Jenkins, Jr.March 17, 2020:
Experts now agree the virus’s spread can be slowed but not contained. It will take its place among mostly seasonal respiratory infections. After a time, recurrent outbreaks will be moderated by a large number of potential carriers who have immunity from their last infection.
And then we can ask some questions. The cost to Americans of the economic shutdown is vast. What are they getting for their money? Essentially less excess demand for respiratory ventilators and other emergency care than can currently be supplied.
This demand will come largely from the elderly and chronically ill, who would be competing for these resources with the usual large number of old and ill people already suffering from acute respiratory distress as a result of routine flu and cold infections. A silver lining will be fewer cold and flu victims overall thanks to social distancing to fight Covid-19.
Some number of respiratory deaths will be avoided (really delayed since we all die) but we’ll be spending a lot more than we’ve ever been willing to spend before to avoid flu deaths. Eighty-three percent of our economy will be suppressed to relieve pressure on the 17% represented by health care. This will have to last months, not weeks, to modulate the rate at which a critical mass of 330 million get infected and acquire natural immunity.
Will people put up with it once they realize they are still expected to get the virus? Wouldn’t it make more sense to pour resources into isolating the vulnerable rather than isolating everyone? Basically aren’t we really just praying that summer will naturally suppress transmission and get us off the hook of an untenable policy?
But then multiple experiments are under way. China seems to have quashed the spread beyond Hubei province and spared 99.9% of its population from infection—for now. Can China really hold off the virus from being reintroduced or re-exploding during the 18 months it may take for a vaccine to be invented and distributed?
Italy is the test case for being a day late and dollar short in voluntary social distancing—the steps people can take to reduce their risk of contracting and spreading the disease. But Italy may also be the first to emerge from the tunnel, with everyone having had their chance to get sick, and the country being able to get back to work.
Britain is wavering on what seemed a modified, limited Italian strategy. Until Tuesday, it was considering letting its health-care sector absorb as much stress as necessary to avoid a sweeping, draconian shutdown of the economy.
The U.S. may or may not be a test case of a large continental country where hot spots of contagion shock other places into buttoning up and hunkering down, curbing excess local demand for intensive-care beds. But the cost will be astronomical. Essentially we are killing other sectors indefinitely to manage the load on the health-care sector.
Understandably, politicians believe faith in government requires avoiding Italy-like scenes. But turned on its head here is the 50-year-old “QALY” revolution: the idea of measuring the burden of disease and benefit of health care based on “quality-adjusted life year,” typically valued at $50,000 to $150,000. In the present instance, the cost isn’t just medical intervention (e.g., ventilator use) but the cost of an economywide shutdown to limit the number of candidates for ventilation at any one time. I don’t know what the figure is, but the QALY value we are placing on avoiding Italy-like deaths is surely a high multiple of any figure previously considered realistic.
America’s shutdown strategy is interesting because it was not a choice that any one person or authority made. You can’t blame the NBA or Tom Hanks or Congress. Donald Trump is being pilloried for leaning against panic, urging comparisons to the flu, suggesting the stock market is overreacting. Like the bus, another reason to pillory Mr. Trump will come along in five minutes and not one of his critics will engage in soul-searching over whether he might have had a point.
Even the fuss over testing is a bit overdone. Nowhere in the world has there been enough testing to detect most coronavirus cases amid millions of seasonal colds and flu cases. This problem exists in China, Europe and the U.S. A British estimate is that 12 people have the virus for every one found by testing. In any case, testing becomes a tad mootish now if the goal is to isolate even young and healthy people.
There’s a vast gap between people washing their hands, avoiding crowds, shielding the old and using good judgment, and sweeping lockdowns and curfews. Anything government spends now will be a good investment if it prepares the economy quickly to resume its growth and healthy functioning. But there are known unknowns. Elections will be held. Politicians will stake out stands in response to the applause meter, not logic. If I could take out one insurance policy on behalf of the country, it would be this: Joe Biden should immediately name Amy Klobuchar as his running mate so she can step in if the success of his campaign so far is not so rejuvenating of Mr. Biden as it now seems.

Michigan Gov. Whitmer on Coronavirus: Trump Admin Has Been Too Slow, It’s ‘Mind-Boggling’
By Pam Key, Breitbart, March 2020:
Tuesday on MSNBC, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) criticized the coronavirus outbreak response of President Donald Trump’s administration.
On closing restaurants and bars, Whitmer said, “In order to flatten the curve, we need to be aggressive on the front end. The federal government did not take this seriously early enough, and now it is on us to make sure we’re doing everything we can based on the best facts and science available and that we are always putting the health of our people front and center. It was a tough decision to make, but we know the spread of this virus is dependent on close proximity. This is one of many steps we’re taking in the state of Michigan.”
Host Stephanie Ruhle asked, “Yesterday, The New York Times reported that the president told a group of governors, ‘Don’t wait for the federal government to get respirators and ventilators. Get them for yourself,’ What’s the reaction to that? it’s much different than the federal response during the Ebola.”
Whitmer said, “This has to be all hands on deck. Cutting red tape, moving as quickly as we possibly can, and being aggressive and smart about our reaction. And so to hear the leader of the federal government tell us to work around the federal government because it’s too slow is just —it’s kind of mind-boggling, to be honest. We are pulling out all the stops in Michigan. Businesses here in Michigan that are redoubling their efforts to make sure that we’re able to access all of the kinds of equipment that we need, but we need the federal government to work. We need respirators and ventilators and personal protection equipment. We need more test kits and the resources to process those test kits in a quick, expedited manner.”
Ruhle asked, “Can you get them? Can you get them without federal support?”
Whitmer responded, “No, no. We need federal support. Like I said, we’re pulling out all of the stops and reaching out to our partners in the private sector and we’re going to do everything we can to supplement but it’s not to the exclusion of federal support. We need the federal government to ramp up and get this done.”

pamelagellerreport--2020-03-18--Rep. Jim Banks: ‘Demand Reparations’ from Communist China for Coronavirus

Rep. Jim Banks ( R-IN ) said on Monday that the United States should begin forcing China to “ pay the burden and the cost incurred ” by the U.S. due to the Wuhan coronavirus .
The Indiana lawmaker said during an appearance on Monday ’ s Tucker Carlson Tonight that the U.S. should place the financial burden caused by the Chinese coronavirus on China and floated several ways to do that , including China relieving a “ great amount ” of U.S. debt .
“ We need to start by forcing China to pay the burden and the cost @ @ @ @ @ @ @ due to the coronavirus .
I think there are many ways that we can do that , ” Banks said .
The president could force China to relieve a great amount of American debt .
He could institute tariffs on China and designate the funds from that into a coronavirus victim relief fund to pay the cost incurred on Americans and American taxpayers due to the negligence on China ’ s behalf that ’ s led to the crisis in America today .
“ So by releasing the debt , the U.S. debt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fund that , ” Carlson said , asking Banks if he believes the Trump administration will go in that direction .
“ I hope so , ” Banks said , applauding the “ enormous ” strength Trump demonstrated on trade deals .
“ I have no doubt that President Trump will do everything that he can to hold China accountable for what they ’ ve caused on Americans today , ” he said .
“ I joined @ tuckercarlson last night to discuss how we can begin to demand reparations from Communist # @ @ @ @ @ @ @ strain of # coronavirus , ” Banks said in a tweet that shared his Tucker Carlson Tonight segment : “ By refusing to let CDC come to China and study the new virus , by lying to their citizens and saying the virus wasn ’ t transmitted by person to person contact when they knew the opposite was true , National Security Advisor Robert O ’ Brien has said this cost the world two months in preparation time for this virus , ” Banks said in an exclusive statement to Breitbart News .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Congress will be working with members of the Trump administration to learn the best way to hold them accountable , ” he added .
The virus , which originated in Wuhan , China , has now infected over 189,000 people worldwide .
The number of cases in the United States currently tops 5,100 .

He’s absolutely right.

Coronavirus symptoms: what are they and should you see a doctor?
By Vanessa Chalmers Health Reporter For Mailonline, 19 March 2020
The death rate of coronavirus may be half of what world health chiefs expected it to be, according to a study.
International researchers compiled data on coronavirus cases in Wuhan, the Chinese city of 11million people where the deadly disease emerged in December 2019.
They found that, overall, the number of people who died after getting sick with the coronavirus was 1.4 per cent. In comparison, estimations by the World Health Organization in early March said 3.4 per cent of diagnosed patients had died.
And the true figure is likely to be even lower because so many people are believed to be going undiagnosed.
By comparison the death rate of flu is around 0.1 per cent.
Coronavirus patients often don’t know they’re infected – as many as eight out of 10 could have no symptoms in the early stages of an outbreak, according to one study –because they get such mild signs that they don’t think anything of it.
The study, which has not yet been reviewed by scientists, comes as more than 9,300 people around the world have died and more than 224,000 have been confirmed to be ill.
The death rate of coronavirus may be half that initially thought be world health chiefs, according to a study on Wuhan partients. Pictured, masked medical staff talking to a patient at Red Cross Hospital in Wuhan in China’s central Hubei province on March 10
The preliminary findings come as the global death toll of COVID-19 nears 10,000, currently at 9,249, with more than 224,000 infected. A patient suffering from coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is seen in an intensive care unit at the Oglio Po hospital in Cremona, Italy
Death rates may not be directly comparable. For example, the UK’s rate is inflated because it only tests people in hospital, who are more likely to die, so the ratio of confirmed cases to deaths is smaller.
The study, led by Professor Joseph Wu of the University of Hong Kong, was focused on the city of Wuhan, where the first cases of COVID-19 were reported.
Professor Wu and colleagues from Harvard University used published data on 425 early confirmed cases and 41 fatalities in Wuhan.
But they wanted to get a bigger picture of how many people in the city, which is in the Hubei province, had the disease but showed no symptoms.
Hospitals had been overwhelmed in Wuhan and milder cases were unlikely to have been tested.
The team used a range of global data sources to estimate the full number of cases within Wuhan by taking into account the location and timing of cases outside of the area to work out how many people could be expected to have had it.
By studying real-life patients they found the average time from the start of symptoms – a fever or a cough – to death was 19 days, on average. It ranged between 16 and 24 days.
They worked out that the proportion of patients who died was 1.4 per cent, with a possible range from 0.8 per cent to two per cent.

For those aged 15 to 64 years, the average fatality rate was 0.5 per cent, with a reasonable range of between 0.2 per cent and 1.3.
Over 64s had a fatality rate of 2.7 per cent, with low and high estimates of 1.5 per cent and 4.7 per cent.
The findings support what officials have known for a long time – that the elderly are more at risk of death from COVID-19.
However, it is significantly below earlier estimates of two to three per cent death rate which had been predicted by the World Health Organization (WHO).
The WHO released a statement on March 3 that said: ‘Globally, about 3.4 per cent of reported COVID-19 cases have died. By comparison, seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than one per cent of those infected.’
It is also lower than the four per cent death rate which divides deaths in China (3,245) by confirmed cases (80,928).
However, Professor Wu and colleagues said their estimated death rate is still ‘concerning’.
The probability of dying from COVID-19 after developing symptoms was 1.4 per cent, as low as 0.8 per cent and as high as two per cent, the study in China found.

‘For the general public, the overriding concern about uncertainty can breed fear, even panic,’ the authors wrote. Pictured, Workers stand next to coffins and remains of the coronavirus victims, in Bergamo, Italy, 18 March
Professor Wu and colleagues also believe in the worst case scenario, the ‘majority the population will be infected eventually’. Pictured, workers stand next to coffins and remains of the coronavirus victims, in Bergamo, Italy, 18 March
99% OF DEATHS ARE IN THOSE WITH A PRE-EXISTING HEALTH CONDITION 99 per cent of coronavirus deaths in Italy are patients with existing medical problems, a study by the country’s health service has found. Research into 355 deaths found that only three of the victims, 0.8 per cent, had been clear of illnesses before they were infected. Nearly half of them – 48.5 per cent – already had three or even more health conditions before they were diagnosed with Covid-19. Another 25.6 per cent had two other ‘pathologies’, while 25.1 per cent had one.
The research by Italy’s National Institute of Health is consistent with previous findings that people with existing illnesses are more likely to die from coronavirus.
According to the study, the most common of these problems in Italy include high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes.
Some 76.1 per cent of the patients who died of Covid-19 had previously had problems with high arterial blood pressure, the study found.
More than a third – 35.5 per cent – had diabetes, while 33.0 per cent had suffered from ischemic heart disease.
Nearly a quarter, 24.5 per cent, had suffered from atrial fibrillation. Less common examples included dementia and liver disease.
Scientists have not yet established why people with high blood pressure are more vulnerable to the coronavirus.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the U.S. says it needs ‘more data to become available’ to investigate the link properly.

Rep. Dan Lipinski falls in Democratic primary By Politico, March 19th, 2020: Rep. Dan Lipinski, a Chicago congressman known for his staunch opposition to abortion and his votes against Obamacare and same-sex marriage, finally succumbed to a liberal challenger Tuesday in a primary held in the throes of the burgeoning coronavirus pandemic. The eight-term Illinois Democrat fell to businesswoman Marie Newman, who led 47 to 45 percent with nearly all the votes tallied, a resounding victory for the party’s progressive wing, which has struggled so far this year to capitalize on its 2018 success. “I am bursting with pride and gratitude for the amazing coalition that helped bring about much needed change in our district,” Newman wrote in a late-night tweet. She canceled her election-night party as the number of coronavirus cases surged.
Newman, who came within 2,200 votes of ousting Lipinski in 2018, crafted a formidable and well-funded campaign operation for the rematch. Her turnout operation knocked over 100,000 doors and she nabbed early endorsements from nearly every high-profile progressive, including Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.). That support helped Newman tap a groundswell of grassroots donors from around the country. She raised upwards of $1.6 million and was outspending Lipinski by a two-to-one margin on the air. A coalition of women’s groups, including EMILY’s List and NARAL Pro-Choice, funneled $1 million into TV ads to help Newman, but Lipinski was left to fend for himself on the airwaves, a dynamic that made his team nervous heading into the election. In a statement Tuesday night, NARAL President Ilyse Hogue hailed the victory as a “culmination of years of work to unseat an entrenched incumbent.”

pamelagellerreport--2020-03-19--Chloroquine effective against Coronavirus

Sure this Coronavirus pandemic is a misery but I ’ m much more optimistic than most at the moment .
Here ’ s one of the reasons : there ’ s an effective treatment already and it ’ s available and cheap , according to studies .
Chloroquine phosphate , an old-fashioned anti-malarial drug , has shown strong results against COVID-19 infections in South Korea and China .
Here is one , by James M Todaro and Gregory J Rigano , in association with Stanford University School of Medicine and National Academy of Sciences Researchers .
According to the summary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ China report that chloroquine is an effective antiviral therapeutic treatment against Coronavirus Disease 2019 .
Use of chloroquine ( tablets ) is showing favorable outcomes in humans infected with Coronavirus including faster time to recovery and shorter hospital stay .
US CDC research shows that chloroquine also has strong potential as a prophylactic ( preventative ) measure against coronavirus in the lab , while we wait for a vaccine to be developed .
Chloroquine is an inexpensive , globally available drug that has been in widespread human use since 1945 against malaria , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can both prevent and treat malaria .
Chloroquine can both prevent and treat coronavirus in primate cells ( Figure 1 and Figure 2 ) .
According to South Korean and China human treatment guidelines , chloroquine is effective in treating COVID-19 .
Given chloroquine ’ s human safety profile and existence , it can be implemented today in the U.S. , Europe and the rest of the world .
Medical doctors may be reluctant to prescribe chloroquine to treat COVID-19 since it is not FDA approved for this use .
The United States @ @ @ @ @ @ @ authorize and indemnify medical doctors for prescribing chloroquine to treat COVID-19 .
We must explore whether chloroquine can safely serve as a preventative measure prior to infection of COVID-19 to stop further spread of this highly contagious virus .
Here is the second study by Jianjun Gao , Zhenxue Tian , Xu Yang The coronavirus disease 2019 ( COVID-19 ) virus is spreading rapidly , and scientists are endeavoring to discover drugs for its efficacious treatment in China .
Chloroquine phosphate , an old drug for treatment of malaria , is shown to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ COVID-19 associated pneumonia in multicenter clinical trials conducted in China .
The drug is recommended to be included in the next version of the Guidelines for the Prevention , Diagnosis , and Treatment of Pneumonia Caused by COVID-19 issued by the National Health Commission of the People ’ s Republic of China for treatment of COVID-19 infection in larger populations in the future .
Here is the third , in the journal Nature .
It ’ s titled ‘ Remdesivir and chloroquine effectively inhibit the recently emerged novel coronavirus ( 2019-nCoV ) in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and autoimmune disease drug , has recently been reported as a potential broad-spectrum antiviral drug.8,9 Chloroquine is known to block virus infection by increasing endosomal pH required for virus/cell fusion , as well as interfering with the glycosylation of cellular receptors of SARS-CoV.10Our time-of-addition assay demonstrated that chloroquine functioned at both entry , and at post-entry stages of the 2019-nCoV infection in Vero E6 cells ( Fig .
1c , d ) .
Besides its antiviral activity , chloroquine has an immune-modulating activity , which may synergistically enhance its antiviral effect in vivo @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whole body , including lung , after oral administration .
The EC value of chloroquine against the 2019-nCoV in Vero E6 cells was 6.90 μM , which can be clinically achievable as demonstrated in the plasma of rheumatoid arthritis patients who received 500 mg administration.11Chloroquine is a cheap and a safe drug that has been used for more than 70 years and , therefore , it is potentially clinically applicable against the 2019-nCoV .
Essentially it means the end of the nightmare is – or ought to be – much closer than we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many months before a vaccine is available for COVID-19 .
In the meantime , this is a very effective stop-gap solution .
Not only does it make those critically affected by the virus less likely to die ; but it also acts as a prophylactic – that is , it is capable of stopping people from getting the disease in the first place .
The reason that Chloroquine works , I understand from an expert in viral pandemics , is that enables the body to absorb more zinc .
Zinc appears to be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ virus and preventing the ‘ cytokine storm ’ , which is the deadly phase in which the virus tricks the body ’ s immune system into attacking its own healthy tissue , with often fatal consequences .
Why isn ’ t there more excitement about this readily available treatment ?
One possible reason is that chloroquine is a generic drug to which no pharmaceutical company owns the patent .
Big Pharma ’ s money and lobbying power will strive to persuade governments – and markets – that the only viable solution to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the short term this simply isn ’ t true .
Nor is it clear to me that the global economy is going to survive on lockdown for as long as it takes to develop and test that vaccine – which may not even prove effective in any case .
Note that point in the Todaro and Rigano paper about the need for FDA approval .
There is no time to waste .

Sure this Coronavirus pandemic is a misery but I’m much more optimistic than most at the moment. Here’s one of the reasons: there’s an effective treatment already and it’s available and cheap, according to studies.
Chloroquine phosphate, an old-fashioned anti-malarial drug, has shown strong results against COVID-19 infections in South Korea and China.
As Anthony Watts notes here there have been at least three studies demonstrating its efficacy against the Coronavirus.
Here is one, by James M Todaro and Gregory J Rigano, in association with Stanford University School of Medicine and National Academy of Sciences Researchers.
According to the summary:
Recent guidelines from South Korea and China report that chloroquine is an effective antiviral therapeutic treatment against Coronavirus Disease 2019. Use of chloroquine (tablets) is showing favorable outcomes in humans infected with Coronavirus including faster time to recovery and shorter hospital stay. US CDC research shows that chloroquine also has strong potential as a prophylactic (preventative) measure against coronavirus in the lab, while we wait for a vaccine to be developed. Chloroquine is an inexpensive, globally available drug that has been in widespread human use since 1945 against malaria, autoimmune and various other conditions.
It concludes:
Chloroquine can both prevent and treat malaria. Chloroquine can both prevent and treat coronavirus in primate cells (Figure 1 and Figure 2). According to South Korean and China human treatment guidelines, chloroquine is effective in treating COVID-19. Given chloroquine’s human safety profile and existence, it can be implemented today in the U.S., Europe and the rest of the world. Medical doctors may be reluctant to prescribe chloroquine to treat COVID-19 since it is not FDA approved for this use. The United States of America and other countries should immediately authorize and indemnify medical doctors for prescribing chloroquine to treat COVID-19. We must explore whether chloroquine can safely serve as a preventative measure prior to infection of COVID-19 to stop further spread of this highly contagious virus.
Here is the second study by Jianjun Gao, Zhenxue Tian, Xu Yang

It doesn’t matter if the wish is aimed at a First Lady, or a doctor, a teacher, a policewoman. It is despicable. He deserves no platform. https://t.co/uTr5RVZSTX — Joe Concha (@JoeConchaTV) March 19, 2020 Wilson later tried to walk back his comments and claim he wasn’t actually wishing “coronavirus” on the FLOTUS and you’re “stupid” if you thought he was. “ANYONE who thought I was wishing COVID on Melania is fuckwit. You know full well it was a riff on “BeBest” and it’s utter failure in the face of her husband’s continued role as Global Troll in Chief and National Bully. That said, fap to your fake-ass outrage all you like.”

NYC to begin releasing inmates amid coronavirus outbreak
By Julia Marsh and Ben Feuerherd, NY Post, March 18, 2020 | 7:04pm | Updated
Mayor Bill de Blasio plans to release “vulnerable” inmates from city jails to prevent the spread of the coronavirus pandemic into local lockups, he said Wednesday.
“In the next 48 hours, we will identify any inmates who need to be brought out because of either their own health conditions — if they have any pre-existing conditions, etc. — or because the charges were minor and we think it’s appropriate to bring them out in this context,” de Blasio said on WCBS radio Wednesday evening.
“That said, we still need our criminal justice system to function,” he added.
The announcement comes as a correction officer and an inmate both tested positive for the deadly illness in the past day.
The Correction Officers Benevolent Association union has called for new masks to protect its members and for all new detainees to be housed in facilities other than Rikers Island amid the outbreak.
Some city officials, including Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, have pushed for the city to begin releasing prisoners who are over 50 years old and at a low risk for reoffending.
The city Board of Correction, which oversees the jails, said in a statement Tuesday that the Big Apple needs to follow the lead of Los Angeles and Ohio authorities, who have already started to release inmates to try to prevent the spread of the potentially deadly contagion. That would include not just suspects awaiting trial but inmates serving sentences of less than a year.
“The City must begin this process now,” the BOC said. “The City’s jails have particular challenges to preventing disease transmissions on a normal day and even more so during a public health crisis.”

“Never let a crisis go to waste.” That famous quote has become a hard rule in the left’s playbook and they use it to the point of abusing it. It doesn’t matter what it is, be it the loss of innocent life at the hands of a madman or a pandemic that started in a foreign country and now threatens ours.
The media has been working overtime to see to it that the Wuhan virus pandemic that has swept the globe is a consistent weight on Trump’s presidency. Be it telling flat-out lies about Trump’s actions or declaring Trump racist for calling the virus by the very name the leftist mainstream media had been calling it for weeks, the left is out to make the Coronavirus a sickness that infects the Trump presidency as it infects the American citizenry, hurting its citizens by health or by economic means.

This is horrible news for Democrats who were hoping that the Coronavirus could be used as a tool to hurt Trump, especially going into 2020.

If it gets worse and the economy tanks, as it will if many major cities continue down the authoritarian course that they are, then it truly will hurt Trump.
