If this new theory holds true it might ...

... explain the bizarre symtoms of many Covid-19 patients.

'Covid-19 is like a burglar who slips in your unlocked second-floor window and starts to ransack your house. Once inside, though, they don’t just take your stuff — they also throw open all your doors and windows so their accomplices can rush in and help pillage more efficiently.'

That was the alleged reason why you were seeing vids of people flopping over in the streets in China in Jan/Feb. But it's not happening here, someone's lying, and I suspect it's the China/Dem camp.

Agree.

I saw it day before yesterday and made a big post with cliffs:
https://forum.obnoxiousbrutes.com/showt...hp?t=178913201

I don't get why it isn't blowing up more as a story. If there is a treatment already in existence than can keep your lungs from "filling up with stuff like Jello" that seems like a big deal to me.

I thought the idea was to slow the spread of the virus to avoid overwhelming healthcare AND give us time to come up with a treatment/vaccine.

This screams TREATMENTS to me, but the only thing in the media is vaccines.

ETA: Little paranoid thought this morning- one poster in my other thread says this was known a long time ago, but I didn't hear a peep and I've been actively scanning for information.

Have to wonder if after the election we suddenly "discover" this theory and treatment so the virus hysteria drops away.

I know the US isn't everything. So maybe other countries are working on this idea; IDK.

Haven‘t seen it posted already, thanks for the link.

There have been strange symptoms here in Austria (not only in China as a poster suggested). An Austrian doctor e.g. reported a young, perfectly healthy woman with very mild symtoms at first who ended up getting her hand amputated.

Sifting facts from opinions and spin ain't easy. For anything that really matters I suggest you read multiple articles on the same topic; preferably including some from outside the US.

Yeah? How about these facts?https://www.cebm.net/covid-19/global...atality-rates/
Taking account of historical experience, trends in the data, increased number of infections in the population at largest, and potential impact of misclassification of deaths gives a presumed estimate for the COVID-19 IFR somewhere between 0.1% and 0.41%.
I'm honestly amazed you people aren't waking up to the fact that covid-19 has been nothing but mass hysteria and propaganda from start to finish. It's mind-boggling.

Though still an emerging theory, the bradykinin hypothesis
Who the **** wrote this trash? Also, just because you run a model through a supercomputer doesn't make it magically valid, much less coherent. GIGO principle applies at all times.

So you think they purposely put garbage in? And of course proper validation must follow.

No, I'm pointing out this article is written in such a way as to imply that because they used the ORNL supercomputer their hypothesis is more valid that some other one. And the article also keeps calling the hypothesis a theory...just sounds like sensationalist pseudo-journalism, gotta get this out NOW before it can be tested and verified.

I'm honestly amazed you people aren't waking up to the fact that covid-19 has been nothing but mass hysteria and propaganda from start to finish. It's mind-boggling.
It does more than just kill people though. A fair number of those who have had it continue to suffer from some complication.
One study examined the cardiac MRIs of 100 people who had recovered from Covid-19 and compared them to heart images from 100 people who were similar but not infected with the virus. Their average age was 49 and two-thirds of the patients had recovered at home. More than two months later, infected patients were more likely to have troubling cardiac signs than people in the control group: 78 patients showed structural changes to their hearts, 76 had evidence of a biomarker signaling cardiac injury typically found after a heart attack, and 60 had signs of inflammation.

These were relatively young, healthy patients who fell ill in the spring, Valentina Puntmann, who led the MRI study, pointed out in an interview. Many of them had just returned from ski vacations. None of them thought they had anything wrong with their hearts.

“The fact that 78% of ‘recovered’ [patients] had evidence of ongoing heart involvement means that the heart is involved in a majority of patients, even if Covid-19 illness does not scream out with the classical heart symptoms, such as anginal chest pain,” she told STAT. She is a cardiologist at University Hospital Frankfurt. “In my view, the relatively clear onset of Covid-19 illness provides an opportunity to take proactive action and to look for heart involvement early.”

And it is highly contagious; more so than influenza.

Have you been following the reports of various effects doctors have witnessed in their patients? Did you read the article, or even the cliffs I posted?

Yes, it is a theory. It is a theory that seems to fit with what is being reported about patients by the medical community.

ETA: This is potentially really good news. Hymecromone may potentially prevent gelling in the lungs.

No, it's not a theory, it is a hypothesis. It is LITERALLY called the bradykinin hypothesis. Which means it needs to be verified before it's a theory. Didn't you learn anything in school? My God...

Point taken. Due to my career history (scientific assistant at uni, etc.), I‘m kind of used to filtering out the sensationalistic garbage in such articles.

Fair enough. I am not questioning the validity of this research at all, just the fact that it's way too convenient initial tests are being reported as some sort of truth before it even passes the smell test.

Yes, I learned to overlook the imprecise use of language in common parlance.

Okay, it is a hypothesis. And?

Does that detract from the main idea that this study found a potential avenue for treatment?

No, but whoever wrote the article needs to be shot in the head. You might be "overlooking imprecise language" but this isn't a sports article, it's about a scientific study. Precision is paramount.

Your article is basically talking about myocarditis. This isn't an unusual thing after any viral infection and is generally not very dangerous at all. There is also no reason to believe it's long-lasting, that's simply sensationalism.
The same goes for the "long-lasting lung damage". That was a headline based on statements from chinese doctors saying there was lung damage. Of course the media didn't include the part where they said you could train your lung-capacity back up with cardio. Nor the fact that pneumonia cause lung damage in general.

Yup, that's cause coronaviruses cause the common cold. Colds is more infectious than influenza.

This whole thing is a chit show and a joke. They like to claim it isnt political and we should "follow the science" but you cant separate politics when you have laws and executive orders made, tax payer money spent ect.

Then you get selective covering in the news and censorship over what news is allowed to be on social media. Like some retarded contracted out mod at ******** is able to tell the validity of whatever latest medical claim is made on COVID.

The article is saying bradykinin is causing the covid-19 complications. Bradykinin is an inflammatory peptide already known for causing sore throat and general common cold symptoms.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3345041/Bradykinin also gets induced when you have, you guessed it, other coronaviruses or rhinoviruses.

I guess that means they are saying we should treat covid-19 the same way we treat the common cold, which I would actually wholeheartedly agree with.
