As history has demonstrated , once certain freedoms are gone they can be exceedingly difficult to get back .

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

OPINION ( Michael Snyder ) – 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 .
But another potential factor @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 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… “ The taking of anti-inflammatories [ ibuprofen , cortisone … ] could be a factor in aggravating the infection .
In case of fever , take paracetamol @ @ @ @ @ @ @ drugs , ask your doctor ’ s advice.
” Unfortunately , many people in Europe have been immediately reaching for ibuprofen once they get the virus because they want something that will help them deal with the 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 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ accelerates the 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 .
Consultant Pediatrician in London John Greenwood 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 .

That picture already looks different this week .
