My DIL works at Kaiser. This was her day today:
Just want to put this out there.. seeing all these post on Covid19 and stimulus package.... what everyone isnt seeing is the people that are coming in sick... the people that are afraid because their loved ones are in the hospital and they cannot be with them..
Today I had to stand at the door with a mask and gloves on that will give little to no protection.. I had people yelling at me.. trying to run me down to get through the door... I watched loved ones kiss their family good bye as they let them walk up to surgery alone... I stood with a woman as she cried at the door that her mother was upstairs dying and I could not let her in... she said she just needed to see her mother before she passed and I waited with her until her sister came down so she could go up... one person at a time... people dying with one family member in the room with them while their other family members wait outside... this is the hard stuff... not the stimulus check... not the debate of finding a vaccine.

Just postulating as I'm not a clinician but it is possible that GI symptoms are larger part of systemic infection as opposed to just lung involvement, secondary organ infection etc and so are are more susceptible to sepsis are further lowering of blood oxygen. Many of those dying from respiratory issues are dying from heart failure and a lack of oxygenation to the rest of the body.
Generally speaking to ingesting some cofveve , oral immunizations are less effective vs. intranasal/pulmonary or more traditional routes of delivery I.M. etc, otherwise a vaccine dropper would be much easier to apply to a larger % of the population.Move upside and let the man go through...

The Covid-19 aid/stimulus bill (CARES Act) just passed. What's in it?
The House finally signed the Senate's bill today, and President Trump signed it into law right away...
...after smacking down one Republican grandstander for threatening to hold it up, just as hard as he smacked down Nancy Pelosi for delaying it all week with demands for "green" energy and nationwide ballot harvesting.
What's in it?
What's Inside The Senate's $2 Trillion Coronavirus Aid Package
https://www.npr.org/2020/03/26/82145...us-aid-package
A pretty good short summary. Here's the first graphic, which confirms what I said before: unlike TARP, which went entirely to rich bankers, the benefits of CARES primarily go to individuals, small businesses, and public health. (There is plenty of pork, primarily in the "Education" and "State and local governments" sections. Remember, I'm grading on the curve of previous efforts )

Yeah - I asked some specialist doctors if the gi symptoms some patients are getting are from an actual infiltration of the digestive system by the virus or is it just, in some people, a systemic reaction by the immune system as it goes on full DEFCON alert from the lung infection - no reply yet. Perhaps in my discussions with them I’m their “spats”.
If I was given the option of 2 weeks of diarrhea and then immunity or roll the dice on being on a ventilator I choose diarrhea. I already have the TP!

Chinese Rat Flu
My older brother, a pulmonologist in Columbus OH, said the other day they had the first case in his hospital where they lost a patient (suspected COVID 19 but test results were pending) and they had to turn the family away because they were also symptomatic. They have exceptions to the current no-visitors rule for end-of-life situations but only if they aren’t symptomatic. Of all the choices critical care doctors have to make in all this, these will be among the toughest.

Ah yes, this would support my cruise ship theory of hypertransmission. ~3500 morans in close quarters all working the AYCE buffet. ~1500 toilets all working on flushing that digested buffet over indulgence. An avg cabin is 8'x8'? and the toilet takes up about 1/4 of it? Don't look now Ricky, but that's a tidal wave of shit and we're about to be swamped.
Cruises were shitty before this.

Yeah, I definitely stand corrected on my weeks ago attitude of what's the big deal, it's outdoors and I'll be wearing gloves (I never did get up to ski, as it turns out, not since January). The Colorado Rockies hotspot seems to have had a lot to do with a skier who went to northern Italy, and then Vail and one other place. And now we read this about Sun Valley and other places.
Maybe California/Nevada can consider itself blessed that it was such a shitty snow season, between New Years and about a day before widespread resort closures. Might have been worse right now in CA cities if there was more of a feeding frenzy at Tahoe resorts in Jan-Feb and early March.
