What in God's name is this obsession with toilet paper? We are starting to come out of lockdown and it's a major mistake. The so-called 'lifting of restrictions' is all money driven, nothing else. Stupid.
On a related note, a mountaineer suggested Dexamethasone as an alternative treatment. Makes perfect sense. This drug is used by mountaineers when they start suffering from pulmonary edema - a condition where the lungs fill up with fluid because the body cannot get rid of carbon dioxide due to lack of oxygen at high altitudes. Patients on ventilators at hospitals experience the exact same symptoms. Apparently they have found it particularly useful in patients with advanced C-19. Reduces the fatality rate by a third. It has no effect on people with mild symptoms. And here's the real surprise - it only costs 50p a shot. And it's been on the market for the last 60 years...
I am repeating myself here but this thing isn't going to go away in a hurry. What's needed is an effective vaccine. Pure and simple. And they are not that easy to create, engineer or formulate. Can't understand why all the guru's in this field don't get together and share ideas. But of course big business is standing in the way of that. Too much profit to be made to collaborate with other companies. Again - just money driven.
The stupidity of the human race knows no bounds.
