Inside a COVID-19 unit in the southern Brazilian city of Porto Alegre, Dr. Tarsila Vieceli said she is seeing first hand the collapse of the country’s health-care system under the weight of the coronavirus pandemic. Heart attack and car accident victims, she said, aren’t guaranteed an ICU bed and surgeries are being cancelled. There’s a waiting list for ICU beds that are filled with COVID-19 patients that, unlike early in the pandemic, are younger and have no underlying medical conditions. |

"We are obviously a threat to ourselves because the virus is out of control and we break records every single day. But we are also a threat to global public health because we are pretty much a factory of variants,” he said in an interview with CBC News." *carbon20 "factory of variants" bit scares me to death....... most people have no clue about viruses,they watch to much TV where just at the last minute before the bomb blows someone cuts the wire.... there is no magic bullet for this...... "Slow Burn"...... take care all 😷😉 |
