Anonymous Coward User ID: 78601182 United States 03/12/2020 12:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thank you. I have nothing to gain by posting this. I just want people to be aware and to be prepared for this to happen here. Yes, thanks OP. I read something on Twitter (from a different thread here on GLP I think) from someone over there that confirmed that very thing. What was most unsettling to me personally was to hear that it's impacting people in their 30s and 40s too - not just older people as is commonly claimed. Thanks for the intel - 5 stars from me. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77432258 Hell, it’s not even credible. Is this guy your uncle? . We need real verifiable credible info that can be confirmed by multiple sources. Otherwise it could be a $3.50 or a crisis actor. They are starting to turn up now. When you are afraid of losing your life, you have already lost your life. Don't be afraid. |

The pseudovirus was then used to infect target Huh-7 cells (or ACE2/293 T cells for pseudotyped SARS-CoV) (10 4 per well in 96-well plates) in the presence or absence of the test peptide at the indicated concentration. Twelve hours after infection, culture medium was refreshed and then incubated for an additional 48 hours, followed by washing cells with PBS, lysing cells with lysis reagent (Promega), and transferring the cell lysates to 96-well Costar flat-bottom luminometer plates (Corning Costar) for the detection of relative light units using the Firefly Luciferase Assay Kit (Promega) and an Ultra 384 luminometer (Tecan). [link to jvi.asm.org (secure)] this one shows corona can enter the brain this is not good Human coronaviruses (HCoVs) are recognized respiratory pathogens with neuroinvasive and neurotropic properties in mice and humans. HCoV strain OC43 (HCoV-OC43) can infect and persist in human neural cells and activate neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative mechanisms, suggesting that it could be involved in neurological disease of unknown etiology in humans. [link to www.pnas.org (secure)] Entry of SARS-CoV into human cells begins with binding of the viral spike glycoprotein to the cell surface receptor human angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) (3). Most of the presumed ancestors of SARS-CoV found in bats are unable to bind this receptor (4). Several years ago in China, a bat CoV, WIV1-CoV, was found to bind to human ACE2 and replicate in human cells (1).

Lot's of people in Italy smoke. The common custom in Italy is to greet friends and loved ones with a kiss on both cheeks. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 78265089 United States 03/12/2020 02:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I believe it. I've heard as much myself from various haunts here and there since the lockdown in Italy. It's bad there, just as you say. One doctor said something like 'it would have been better had they just dropped a bomb on us' And there was the post from the nurse yesterday begging the West to wake up, they all thought it was just the flu and were joking about it the very day before their ICUs started filling up. Then melting down the very next day. The Pope literally declared that is ministers or whatever the Catholics call those dudes, go out in the streets to comfort and offer last rites to the dying. To expose themselves to the risk of the virus since...well...you only get one last rite. It's happening there as you say, no hyperbole I believe that. It will take until it's happening here until people believe this unfortunately, such is the way with humans, we're quite silly most of the time in the final analysis. 5 stars. |
