NO,,JC and Chask,,,I ain't talkin bout no girlie pics this time,,altho it might be on my mind some,,,,,,

 Seriously,,,My 5 Sons and granddaughter have started a " chat" group  of sorts on the phones since the wife had the Amputation and has been a good way to keep everybody in the loop when you want to pass on some info without having to text everybody,,,, Works great with my 2 fingered typing,,,,

  Anyway, we been sharing some good info on the coronavirus that either comes from specialists as well as from my older Brother, an ER Dr in Milwaukee, Wi. Maybe I need a disclaimer here but still hopin others  can be helped by some these suggestions. EVERYBODY feel free to chime in with your suggestions as there is power in numbers,,

  My first one will, no doubt, be Shameless's favorite,,and that is to twice a day, gargle with one TBS vinegar in a glass of water, as the researchers have stated the first symtoms have been a sore throat and the virus multiplies in the throat. Just so ole Shameless knows,,I use my favorite,,Apple Cider Vinegar with a glass of water. If you do not care for the ACV, use plain salt and water.

  Another symtom not being publicly stated too much is that many patients in Italy and Germany are experiencing a "No taste or reduced smell" condition, again, because of the virus gaining a foothold in the throat area,,,?

  We have a couple of bottles of Mucus Relief DM, and some Tussin DM which have the Guifenesin ingredient that is suppossed to prevent the virus from attaching itself to the lungs, which results in the increased chest pain and decreased breathing ability. I got the "Equate" brand as all the other was sold out.

  The MOST important one which ya'll hear every day,,is wash your hands every time you think about it, and never touch your face if you have been to town UNTIL you wash your hands a couple of times,!!

  I hope this helps everybody here, and do not mean to be a worry wart or push my agenda on anybody,,,I just likes all of ya'll,,,,,,and wanna be able to shoot the chit after this is all over,,,,,

 

See Joe, I can do it without pictures.

 

I also have a nose sprayer I fill with 100 proof (only 50% alky) and do shots when out in the store (as little as possible). Every little bit helps, and the short slight burn ain't no Biggy.

 

Hang in there everyone.

  Chask,,,,you is something else,,,,, glad to have your "irony quips" here to put some humor where there is so much sufferin goin on,,,,,

 

Oh and by the way,,I just read this on another site that I bother people at,,,,,

  If you want to bump up your immune system fast for a day - lunch to lunch. A 24 hour fast reboots your immune system. Why? As you fast your body uses up more white blood cells. After 24hours your body starts making more NEW white blood cells. NOT medical advice. Just a bit of information.....

  

Sorry Chask,

all I gots to tell Joe is to take his zinc tablets... and maybe some of that Emergen-C too.

other than that, just stay home if you can and be careful on what comes through the door, specially stuff bought and brought through the mail... or delivery.

  And fur dear ol' DJ, heres a wiggly one... LOL

Sorry in advance, I know this aint the forum fer it, but I can't resist!

Teach that critter to fart "impeach fawty fi", and its the spittin image of auntie maxine...

 You Know,,Shameless,,,,,I WAS NOT gonna fess up to this but since you touched on it,,,,,,I really been takin a couple of TBS of the ACV WITH a full glass of water and a TBS of honey for a very refreshing drink in the summertime,,,and it great,,,!!!

 IMAGINE my surprise,,,NO,,my SHOCK the first time I tried to gargle with ACV straight,,!!  CHIT,,,,I like'ed to choke,,I couldn't catch my breath,,thought i was gonna kick the bucket right there,,,,,, I thought,,,chit this is what ole Shameless must of thought when HE tried the pure quill stuff,,,,,! I had NO IDEA is was so friggin salty,,,whooop,,,whooop

 Believe I'm gonna use 1 TBS with some water from now on to gargle,,,,,,,,

I'm still working even though the county I work in was the first in Kansas to be shut down.

30% of the vehicles I get in are pretty nasty to begin with even before this virus thing especially if you have to work on anything on the inside. Hazard pay nasty.

I have a bottle of Purell and wash my hands 15 times a day or more anyway. I take precautions but it will take that one person and that one time I don't. I'm fine, the group I work with are fine.

 Hey Fixer,,,Gosh,I feel for you and all the other people that face those conditions. If, you can find it, make you some "Spray" like for steering wheels, door handles, etc, etc of the vehicles you have to service. The COV.gov suggests a spray made of 12 Oz 91% Isopropyl Alcohol,  2 Tsp Glycerin, 1 TBS Hydrogen Peroxide, 3 Fl Oz Distilled water. Spray all doors, steering wheels, ignitions, gear shifts, chit spray everything,,!!

 Seriously tho, better safe than sorry. Take care, my friend.

 One of the first things they asked my wife when she started Dialysis was,,,,,"Did you ever take any Ibuprofen?" I told em she had but not in last year or so. They ADAMAMETLY told her to STOP taking it and never take any More,!!

  I asked if it was that bad,,Why had the government or FDA stopped the sale of it? The nurse told me,,,The Government KNOWS about it.   WTF,,,???
