This thread needs a little comic relief. Only in Canada, eh. The way Canadians deal with things is, uh, a little different. The videos are great...sound on.

Mexico is reporting 20,739 confirmed cases this morning.

Remdesivir seems to be the favorite right now but it is very expensive. I don’t think enough focus has been given to hydroxychloroquine + azythromycine + zinc combination. It has been discarded without proper vetting and it’s only a few dollars a dose. If I was in Mexico that would be my drug of choice. However, with either one, you have to start the medication ASAP after you get a diagnosis. It seems important to have a game plan just in case.

Mexico is reporting 22,088 confirmed cases this morning.

Mexico is reporting 23,471 confirmed cases this morning.

Baaaaaad test kit. What I'm really wondering is how they got blood from Trump, Mitch McConnell and another trump supporter.

So Trump is blaming China for spreading covid19 to US. AMLO should now blame the US for covid19 spread in Mexico.

Mexico is reporting 24,905 confirmed cases this morning.

And then there is this.......

"I will give zero apologies for what I'm about to say because while we're busy working to save people's lives we're also growing really concerned about the conspiracy theory BS that's seeming to become a bigger problem than #covid19. We don't have time while we're working to save lives to also be on social media explaining, with the depth of knowledge most of us have acquired over years and decades, how to understand with scrutiny the science of everything that's happening right now and why the science is so important. So, if you don't know how to keep a #SARSCoV2 patient alive and you're posting your opinion on vaccines, population control, Bill Gates, shutdown hoax, deep state, your personal liberty to go out in public without a mask or whatever bullshit crap fake news is about to come next let me just say this... The heath care professionals I know, including myself, give the SAME high quality heart and soul, brains and brawn, care to the victim and the drunk driver. We WILL fight for your life if you end up on life support whether you got #coronavirus accidentally or because your dumb ass went out to protest the lockdown without a mask. So, have a little respect and know that if you don't know what the fuck you're talking about it's okay to just shut the fuck up right NOW. This is not a joke."

You should post this on TOB. There’s a bunch of morons there who just wont listen.

SHIT!

yeah, and we thought Murder Wasps and CrazyCoons were our problems. Shit indeed.

So its going to be mission impossible to have "a vaccine". (Not sure why MC is a threat to you)

Tyranny is a threat to free speech, ignorance is a threat to exploration, growth and change.

Mexico is reporting 26,025 confirmed cases this morning.

So I suppose Mexico gives out 1100 tests per day and they all come back positive and that is what’s reported

Sadly you are probably correct

Yep......lol.

Yep.

More on this... maybe there's still hope.

Is it a fact that all the tests are being reported as positive or an opinion?  I haven´t seen anything in the news to that effect.  If that is a fact, then the death rate to infections reported is extremely low.

I was just being facetious because the rate should be exponential.by now and it is not following the pattern of other countries.

Then why aren´t the hospitals in Jalisco being overburdened, I´m sure we would be hearing about that.  There are too many people working in those facilities to keep them all quiet.

Not all areas will have the same stats. NOB New York is far different than the rest of the nation. Likewise Michigan and Massachusetts.
