This is what happens when restrictions get lifted too soon

Now, the medical research group Robert Koch Institute has found Germany’s COVID-19 infection rate is back on the rise.

A week ago, the virus was diminishing. The basic reproduction number was 0.65. This means every three sufferers were only infecting another two.

That number has since increased to 1.13, meaning the virus may already be re-surging.


MAY 12, 2020, 9:23 PM
Germany reported 933 new coronavirus cases on Tuesday, nearly three times as many as the day before.



buywell predicts emergency measures will be taken today in Germany


Effectively another lockdown


Should help markets no end

USA markets start the dive after England market closes

buywell believes the next down leg is underway as Investors realize a second wave of Covid is coming inshore as of now

Politicians to be fare have no option but to release lockdown or else soon face rioting on the streets in London Manchester Birmingham Derby Nottingham and Leeds again.

The COE has extended the 80% furlough scheme to do just that , prevent rioting which would present a direct threat to the Government.

They are buying peace on the streets

They are doing it in the Northern Hemisphere so as to peak the second wave with August

Their only option to minimise deaths as temperatures rise

This virus thrives in cold conditions

80p

I was with a physio at the NHS and last Thursday they rang me and just de-registered me from the list as they said the list was getting to long.
So I made an official complaint as thats just fudging the figures.
A Manager has just called me back and she said she will put me back on the list but cannot say when normal physio in hospital will resume, it could be 1 year or even 2 years.
So it just shows you what the NHS is really expecting right there.

See my earlier post that finding treatments may not be so daunting.



The World Health Organization said on Tuesday that some treatments appear to be limiting the severity or length of the Covid-19 respiratory disease and that it was is focusing on learning more about four or five of the most promising ones.

“We do have some treatments that seem to be, in very early studies, limiting the severity or the length of the illness, but we do not have anything that can kill or stop the virus,” spokeswoman Margaret Harris told a virtual briefing, referring to the body’s “solidarity trial” of drugs against the disease.

“We do have potentially positive data coming out but we need to see more data to be 100% confident that we can say this treatment over that one,” she added.

FTSE back over 6000 makes it interesting to watch for a short sell. There are non stop negative headlines worldwide which stock are ignoring. there has to be a 300-400 pt pullback at some point. 6050 - 6100 may tempt me to have a small gamble

COVID-19 is a mutation of the Corona Virus so Hopefully since the corona virus mutates anyhow and we always manage to get a vaccine for that then we will for this strain as well with it being in the same family.
Hiv now has antivirals which slow the virus down so much you live a normal life span these days.
After all its about giving your body the DNA Model of the virus to kill without the body having to take the time in having to work it our for itself and during which time the virus takes hold and can kill you. So in many cases a very similar strain of the virus which do not do anything to you are given like for smallpox you are given the cows version of smallpox which is slightly different and will not harm a human but gives the body the blue print it needs to kill the human strain should it come across it.

This was found out by the coincidence that milking maids never caught smallpox.

So we do not have to kill this virus with anything we just need to have a similar virus which does not kill us to enable our bodies to create the antibody it needs should we come in contact with anyone with it, then our body will kill it before it can get a hold.

This was an interesting thing.
Cancer, when I was 20, I watched a documentary, how a person with cancer had a cancer cell taken and it was injected into a mouse, the mouse then created antibodies which attacked the foreign body thus the antibody was tuned to the DNA structure of the cancer cell, they then took that antibody and injected it into the person, the person immune system could then see a foreign body and created an antibody to kill the mouse antibody and because of the DNA structure it also identified the the cancer cell where an infection and the person immune system then started killing the cancer cells.
curing him of cancer, they said it was still being researched and to bring this to market would take around 20 years, well I watched something on the TV news about 2 years ago that's 28 years ago and its only just starting to raise its head to the public for certain cancers.
Its all very interesting stuff.

The truth is said to be like poison, it can only be safely absorbed in very small amounts.

The truth that the scientific community and Governments across the planet are very slowly acknowledging is that vaccines for zoonotic viruses have been few and far between. No vaccines have ever been created to immunise against BSE, SARS, HIV or MERS, to name but four zoonotic fatal infections.

The likelihood of one being created for Covid-19 is therefore statistically of a low order.

Even a viral infection as commonplace as influenza, which kills millions annually, requires a new vaccine every year because the virus mutates.

Treatments to reduce the severity of the resulting symptoms maybe be less daunting.

so the travel industry is screwed for this year at least, you dare not book a holiday for next year as you dont know who will go bust this year,
pubs, restaurants public transport can only support space for 25% of the people they can hold and that includes planes boats where you have a two weeks quarantine.
your work place can now only hold 25% of its staff who are to work at home if its possible.
and because people are returning to work, the government will get them off their payroll leaving the losses with all the business out there, and this intern provides less tax back to the government which means the working people will be taxed more as well as having a pay cut to support companies over this period.

Watch all the companies that are going to be filing for bankruptcy now,
Bet Thomas Cook's backer that bailed on them is glad now as they would have gone in this climate anyhow.

All the redundancies that are going to happen shortly.

We wont see life return back to normal until there is a vaccine for this thing and that is still possibly a year away.

Round 2 of the fallout is about to begin.

If your unfit or fat or have an underlying problem you had better not listen to the government when they eventually say you can go out, because its not that you wont get this thing, its you will still get this thing but our hospitals are not over saturated, and since there is no cure and they can do nothing more that give you breathing apparatus then only the few people who are on that border line can be helped.
Up to now NHS Staff are only saving 39% of hospitalised people with COVID-19.
So if you end up in hospital there is a 60 percent chance you will die and the government is not stopping us from dying of this there just making sure you will get in a hospital.
