I'm just getting into this but so far he's got it nailed to the wall. He is going to address 5G later. I'll see where he goes with that.
I would not take the swab test for anything. And I don't need a reason. Don't need to look for one, or justify my decision. That's a real time saver. lol. Nor could I be talked out of it. If I have no reason, there's nothing to argue. You can't prove me wrong.
But I'm curious as to WHAT is "NOVEL' about it, as therein lies the funky. (if you ask me)
On pneumonia. They've said it's not a 'disease', it's a set of symptoms. Generally it causes fluid buildup in the lungs. With bacterial pneumonia, antibiotics administered in time and right drug and dosage, will defeat the thing, the 'bug' before you drown.
What THIS makes me think is that the 'novel' aspect sends the immune system into hyper drive causing a cytokine storm, producing way too much by-product (mucus, phlegm) which then overwhelms the lungs, clogs the cilia, blocks the air sacs, and the patient croaks from lack of oxygen.
Hence a ventilator is only just so much help. It may supply the O2 but can't alter the uptake, OR the gas exchange. The problem could be a build up of unexpelled CO2.
But that's only an opinion. Though maintaining a clear airway, even with just a 'cold' is probably a good place to start. (fluids, especially hot fluids, steam showers, epectorants-guaifenesin. Vicks.
And not cough suppresants unless the cough is getting silly. First try cough drops, honey, a swig of something...And actually, if the cough is coming from a scratchy throat-ice chips or breathing cool air!
David's talking about genetic material, which might indicate suseptibility-weakness. I don't know what else it could contribute. From past reading, DNA is a very decently protected aspect of our make up.
Not easily hacked by just introducing something into the body. Normally it has to be extracted, spliced, manipulated, and then put back.
Eh? Maybe some things to watch for.
