2 weeks after this post, the UK has recorded 708 deaths today, up from 684 deaths yesterday, 569 deaths on Thursday and 563 deaths on Wednesday. The UK had 56 deaths total when @Mendes4Lyfe posted that message above, now the UK has 4,313 fatalities total (which is 1,000 more than China's total). Their total amount of confirmed cases went from 5,018 on March 21st to 41,908 as of today.
May this be an example to not downplay the seriousness of the coronavirus pandemic around the world.
Please do not feed the troll.
Very important. Thank you, @DaltonCraig007
Just my usual reaction whenever I see Mendes4lyfe popping up.
Sorry. :)>-
Amazing. Great to see these slivers of triumph.
I have some friends who are rejighing their machines to produce masks so I hear some are actually making a pretty nice penny out of this for their troubles...
God bless them, thank you for sharing.
How is Aidan Turner doing? ;)
Was laid off like many others, but both provincially and federally, there are benefits being offered that should keep us afloat while we ride out the pandemic.
Good, thank you. ;)
I have visited Italy three times in the past five years, and every visit has left me eager to return.
I hope that southern Italy will not suffer even more from the virus than Lombardy, since it has a more vulnerable economy and infrastructure.
It is a disease that attacks the lungs hence the issue with the ventilators, so the lung damage contracted with this disease is not likely to go away overnight. The few people I have seen on TV "recovered" from the Corona ordeal after a stay at the IC just said they had some damage to their lungs they hoped would become better with time.
So much for the rumour aspect.
If you follow the FOX news than anything is a rumour. ;)
Yeah, THIS. From what I've read, lung damage will vary, but you need a ventilator, you WILL have it to at least some degree.
I'm cautiously optimistic that a vaccine will have been developed by then, not only for your sake (and I hope you will have a fantastic vacation!) but also for Italy's economy. I'm hoping to go back in 2021 for the Pordenone silent film festival.
Unfortunately I have only one hair tie in my apartment (how it got there I don't know) and the instructions require two, so I'm going to use my scarf as a face cover, even if it makes me look like a bank robber. As long as you're covering your nose and mouth and have tied the covering in position, you have fulfilled the requirements.
KN95 masks after doing research I found are not being shipped to certain country's due to not been previously tested, though the KN95 masks are used in China, they are available in the UK.
Haven't planned that far ahead, but company is always welcome.
What industry are you in @GlamSlam ?
I don't think you're the only one who's being affected financially though.
As far as making a 'pretty nice penny' most countries have a policy that people not be profiteering from this pandemic. We're all in the same boat here. At least most of us are.
That's great, congrats! Nice of you to use it to think of ways you can help others.
Interesting, Most have recovered from the virus and appear to be normal. But we have to wait and see how long it will take to be declared they are completely free from virus, that's why i said it's too soon.
Nevertheless, According to the Leader Board of Hong Kong Hospital, they monitored a group of 12 Covid-19 patients. The result showed that two or three in this group had impaired lung function. The lung functions of those patients declined by 20% to 30% after recovery. Fortunately, this condition can be improved if the patients do lung capacity enhancement exercises regularly.
The US Biotechnology Information Center has carried out some experiments on it, they concluded that there was up to 17 percent of 99 coronavirus patients suffering from Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). If those patients have acute pneumonia, their lungs cannot provide important organs with enough oxygen. When Covid-19 enters the human lungs, it caused inflammation in the lung’s mucous membrane. Then, the mucous from nearby blood vessels enter the alveolar sacs in the lungs, making it harder to breathe. Hence, it takes coronavirus patients about 6 months to 15 years for complete lung recovery after get out of this deadly virus. Still people who have been affected with permanent lung damage are 15-20% .
BTW is there any news channel left who doesn't try to frighten people? :D
That's a fantastic way to act in the face of this pandemic @Birdleson and I feel very lucky to call you a friend.
Selfless acts and a strong attitude are for me something that keeps me going. Little positives go a long way and you my friend are going all out.
My compliments.
