The US is also reporting the pts are younger and sicker.
No doubt since those young dimwits are having covid parties and betting on who gets it first. They should also give odds on which one of them die first too!!!!

Re. Zinc supplements. I went looking for zinc picolinate on internet sites, hoping to help keep Covid at bay, and found that a typical capsule is 50 mg. This is above the recommended tolerable upper intake and there are warnings that extended use of high amounts can lead to copper deficiency. Zinc is also provided by whole milk, cheese, eggs, dark chocolate, beef and other red meats, pumpkin seeds, nuts and other foods and most people get enough in their diet.
https://www.webmd.com/vitamins-and-supplements/supplement-guide-zinc#1
https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements-zinc/art-20366112
https://lpi.oregonstate.edu/mic/minerals/zinc
https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/best-foods-high-in-zinc
The tolerable upper intake level (recommended) is 40 mg, recommended daily amount: 8 mg for women, 11 mg for men.
"Long-term consumption of zinc in excess of the tolerable upper intake level (UL; 40 mg/day for adults) can result in copper deficiency."
So a little caution should be taken.

You’re right about that but Linus Pauling Institute of OSU goes on to say:
“Supplementation with doses of zinc in excess of the UL is effective to reduce the duration of common cold symptoms. The use of zinc at daily doses of 50 to 180 mg for one to two weeks has not resulted in serious side effects. (More information)”
Thanks for bringing that up.

One tablespoon of pumpkin seeds has 1 mg. of zinc.
Here's something interesting- in women, zinc is distributed evenly throughout the body. In men, 80% of the zinc is stored in the prostate. Perhaps men who get prostate problems are low in zinc.
It also prevents hair loss.

But, it didn’t have to be this way. I hope one of these days someone publishes an investigative report on this whole fiasco.

I once saw a study where they placed persons with the flu at various distances from uninfected persons to determine when contamination occurs. They determined that two persons have to be very close to each other because a large enough viral load has to find its way into the other person to infect him. However this virus is much more virulent and spreads more rapidly.

This effectively means there are no active cases in Chapala, correct?

According to these stats, there are no active cases in Chapala.
Please note that there are 10 that are suspicious. I don't know if they are waiting for test results or what.
The other thing is that I suspect any cases that require hospitalization are whisked away to Guadalajara and become one of their stats not ours.

I think the other way round happened CBob. The Dad died in Guad in a hospital and the asymptomatic mother stayed at home so she was counted here.
