Really Sweden is just following public health orders of staying at home and keeping distance between people? That's probably why they didn't need to lockdown because they are smart enough to listen to facts. Some countries need to create laws to ensure people are social distancing. Here in Canada, if we didn't have provincial lockdowns and closure of businesses, we probably would have high numbers. We tried the "stay away from people and wash your hands" but not everyone was listening and non-essential businesses aren't going to volunteer to shut down.

I don't know if you're from Ontario but it spread quite a bit by those idiots partying at Laurier and Queens and Western.

Wouldn't be surprised as more people seem more inclined to listen than Americans here, with all the silly bs about freedom.

Also the same Governor that acted like he only knew asymptomatic carriers could infect people 2 weeks ago when he finally instituted a lockdown.

 

[M3J]

I wish Americans actually socially distanced themselves and self-quarantined so businesses could stay open.

While in Brazil, our beloved president just said today he is not a graverdigger to know how many people died yesterday from corona virus. That was his answer when a reporter asked him if he knew that almost 300 people died on a single day.

Exactly. But guess what? He's bringing them back. Because there is not enough doctors in Brazil.

can't be assed to link, but Trump apparently said that injecting/consuming disinfectant might be a good way to combat coronavirus.

This guy really is a dumbass, and his supporters even worse.

Oh you mean this shit? Yea lol

Trump suggests 'injection' of disinfectant to beat coronavirus and 'clean' the lungs

A Homeland Security official, under questioning from reporters, later said federal laboratories are not considering such a treatment option.

OK....? You would think he'd be a little smarter.

Why would he bother to be smart when he knows his supporters aren't?

Because peoples lives and the fate of their economy is on the line.

Did Trump ever even convincingly pretend to care about anyone else but himself/his ratings/his stocks and economy?

I'm sure people already saw this but... some music to fit the mood of the thread:

Can't really argue with that.

I don't think he cares or realizes that, he just wants to look like he's achieving things. The ONLY good thing about this is if it hurts his supporters enough that they can't vote then Trump won't see a second term so soon.

Did Trump ever even convincingly pretend to care about anyone else but himself/his ratings/his stocks and economy?

Yes, during the campaign.

Abstract
Ultraviolet blood irradiation (UBI) was extensively used in the 1940s and 1950s to treat many diseases including septicemia, pneumonia, tuberculosis, arthritis, asthma and even poliomyelitis. The early studies were carried out by several physicians in USA and published in the American Journal of Surgery. However with the development of antibiotics, UBI use declined and it has now been called “the cure that time forgot”. Later studies were mostly performed by Russian workers and in other Eastern countries and the modern view in Western countries is that UBI remains highly controversial.
