Sorry if I missed it! Too much COVID stuff on the brain.

Wow, mind-blowing indeed.
I wonder if they tested their oxygen levels or done some CT scans... I know some of those asymptomatic folks on the Diamond Princess cruise ship already had signs of the virus although they had no symptoms at the time... Either way, some will definitely stay asymptomatic with no sign of the virus...
Confused - they are starting a trial on a tuberculosis drug, not a malaria drug.

Texas A&M is starting trials on a Malaria drug that may have some success.

I thought it was a TB vaccine and not a drug..
I meant to type vaccine (and thought I had), sorry.
No Evidence.What is NED?
What is NED?
Just read Pfizer and BioNTech and giving their US test participants doses of their potential Covid19 vaccine. It uses mRNA approach.
If successful, it could be produced in the millions this year and hundreds of millions in 2021.

When some people become infected with the coronavirus, they only develop mild or undetectable cases of COVID-19. Others suffer severe symptoms, fighting to breathe on a ventilator for weeks, if they survive at all.
Despite a concerted global scientific effort, doctors still lack a clear picture of why this is.
Could genetic differences explain the differences we see in symptoms and severity of COVID-19?
From the LA Times today.
"Scientists say a now-dominant strain of the coronavirus appears to be more contagious than original"
The new strain appeared in February in Europe, migrated quickly to the East Coast of the United States and has been the dominant strain across the world since mid-March, the scientists wrote.
In addition to spreading faster, it may make people vulnerable to a second infection after a first bout with the disease, the report warned.

OK, Dick the Butcher, then the lawyers?Perhaps the Media headline writers should be done in first.

CVS Health Corp. executives warned Wednesday of an impending surge in medical problems unrelated to coronavirus, as the pharmacy chain's data suggest Americans are delaying routine health care during the pandemic.
CVS, which owns insurance giant Aetna, says patients in April received fewer new prescriptions, as many have started fewer new treatments and seen doctors less frequently -- a concern especially for patients who have chronic conditions such as diabetes and heart disease, which can lead to costly hospitalizations when not treated consistently.
This should be a surprise.
Emphasis added.

Cuomo says it's 'shocking' most new coronavirus hospitalizations are people who had been staying home
Preliminary data from 100 New York hospitals involving about 1,000 patients "shows that 66% of new admissions were from people who had largely been sheltering at home...nearly 84% of the hospitalized cases were people who were not commuting to work through car services, personal cars, public transit or walking...a majority of those people were either retired or unemployed. Overall, some 73% of the admissions were people over age 51."
