Again as the EU created an international summit Trump and the US was absent.

If this country needed anymore proof that Trump is now more closely aligned with Russia than our European Allies just look at the efforts to raise over $8 billion for research to form a global alliance to find a v*****e against C****-**.

It was reported that a consortium of world leaders that was headed by the EU of world leaders and international banks to take part in a video conference summit hosted by the EU and raise funds to start a global fund to share scientific data to eliminate this v***s.
Nations around the world attended this video conference.

Absent from participation in the joint conference to share research were you guessed it Russia and Trump they have decided this global alliance is for socialist sissies.

Trump Administration officials are not allowed to even mention this global alliance.

This global initiative is nations around the world to develop and sharing scientific data on research to obtain a v*****e and inoculate the global population to prevent another global p******c.

What this country has is a president that doesn’t understand the health of the entire world wide population is at stake, as well as interconnecting of the global economy. A global race against time is underway but Trump and the Russians are absent.

What Trump has to understand the race to discover a v*****e is not a competition between countries. It’s not the Trump theory of America first but to share scientific data to develop a v*****e, and wipe out this v***s worldwide and prevent it from another wave.

But currently the US and Russia are staying on the sidelines but these nations around the world won’t compromise or slow them down as more nation are signing on daily, Japan Israel along with South Korea have just signed on.

But as usual Trump will sit on the sidelines the same way he did with the test kits. Trump had the opportunity to get a reliable test kit form South Korea, and the WHO on February 10th but Trump said thanks but no thanks we will develop our own. Finally March 10th the US had a kit.

But this nation can be assured if this global alliance finds the v*****e Trump in usual fashion will run to the bully pulpit and take the credit and his i***t base of r****t will screaming praise on Trump.

Can you imagine a global alliance to find a v*****e and eliminate this v***s worldwide. And Trump and Russia refuse to join.

But that’s Trump his intellect doesn’t allow common sense.

US politicians against global consensus
CHINADAILY

On Friday, the World Health Organization reiterated that the novel c****av***s, which caused a major p******c in the world, is "natural in origin".

Frankly speaking, that's not a fresh conclusion. As early as in January, there had been wide consensus among scientists that the novel c****av***s could not possibly have come from man-made sources and that its origin was definitely in nature. A few Indian scientists claimed it might have been "man-made" in origin in their shared paper on the pre-publishing website BioRxiv, but they soon withdrew that paper and apologized for that groundless guess.

Yet some US politicians have insisted on conspiracy theories despite the wide consensus among global scientists. In their tweets, public speeches as well as interviews, they repeatedly called for "investigations" of China. Their conspiracy theories against China are so evident in their words and deeds, that one has to wonder why they harbor so much h**e and bias against China.

At least one thing is certain — namely, that the US politicians involved lack the most basic scientific spirit and knowledge. These are the same politicians who openly mentioned injecting disinfectants to cure the novel c****av***s, after which cases of mistaken exposure to bleach doubled in New York alone;

Who went to a hospital without wearing a mask, and was the only person in a photo doing so;

Who threatened to fire a top scientist even though the latter enjoyed wide popularity and credibility, only because he tried to say something different from what the politicians wanted.

US politicians were so busy blaming others that they had no time to protect Americans from C****-**. By Friday, the number of infections in the US reached 1.13 million, while deaths hit 65,435, topping the world.

Do they mean to make it "America First" in terms of infections? Being elected by US v**ers and supported by US taxpayers, they are tasked with protecting the US people, but now they have failed in doing that.

Better to spare some time and energy on helping their own people and prevent the novel c****av***s from spreading too much further.

Gatsby, The problem is that people that are most effected don't know they are until they become infected. There is a higher mortality rate among older people and people with underlying medical conditions. That doesn't mean that others are not in danger of being k**led by the v***s. The real problem is that people that don't show symptoms may be infected, and will cause another wave of the p******c. That is exactly what happened in the 1918 Spanish flu p******c. This is worse because there is no treatment or v*****e for c***d19. The second and third surge k**led many more people than the first surge of the Spanish flu. I know that a lot of the people are hurting economically, but a second surge of this disease will only cause far more damage to the economy. Recessions and even depressions come and go, but death is forever! As I write this post, over fifty thousand plus Americans have died of this p******c in three months. In a decade of war in Viet Nam, fifty seven thousand Americans died. I wouldn't call this a few people.

WASHINGTON — President Trump’s mention Thursday of treating C****-** with ultraviolet light was part of a rambling digression that included speculation about administering disinfectants to patients, prompting confusion and alarm from medical experts.

The president’s invocation of p***********e — which he claimed on Friday had been a joke intended “sarcastically” to provoke reporters — overshadowed the news from the briefing about evidence, first reported last week by Yahoo News, that ultraviolet light does destroy the c****av***s. Researchers have shown it can be used to disinfect surfaces and k**l v***ses in ambient air in ways that could be used to reduce t***smission in public spaces.

“Continuous very low dose-rate far-UVC light in indoor public locations is a promising, safe and inexpensive tool to reduce the spread of airborne-mediated microbial diseases,” wrote a team of researchers in a 2018 paper published in Scientific Reports.

T***smission of the c****av***s is thought to be more common through particles spread through the air than by contact with hard surfaces, but scientists are still working to understand how the v***s spreads.

Yet if commercially available UV products were to mitigate some of the risk of contracting the c****av***s, that might help ease the t***sition out of a total lockdown. “This approach may help limit seasonal influenza epidemics, t***smission of tuberculosis, as well as major p******cs,” the scientific researchers wrote in 2018.

The key is advances in UV lighting technology, specifically the advent of “far-UVC” lamps, which operate at a wavelength of 222 nanometers, a frequency that doesn’t penetrate skin or the outer layer of the human eye. Previously, disinfecting ultraviolet could not be used in public spaces because the wavelengths used, of 254 nanometers and up, can cause skin cancer and damage the eyes.

By contrast, the 2018 paper found that “far-UVC light cannot penetrate even the outer (non living) layers of human skin or eye” but that “because bacteria and v***ses are of micrometer or smaller dimensions, far-UVC can penetrate and inactivate them.”

David Brenner, director of Columbia University’s Center for Radiological Research, said earlier this week that far-UVC light “can be safely used in occupied public spaces, and it k**ls pathogens in the air before we can breathe them in.”

“Most approaches focus on fighting the v***s once it has gotten into the body. Far-UVC is one of the very few approaches that has the potential to prevent the spread of v***ses before they enter the body,” Brenner said.

A group of researchers at the Center for Radiological Research published a study in 2017 that “tested the hypothesis that there exists a narrow wavelength window in the far-UVC region, from around 200-222 nm, which is significantly harmful to bacteria, but without damaging cells in tissues.”

The study found that far-UVC light k**ls pathogens “without the skin damaging effects associated with conventional germicidal UV exposure.”

Two other studies have examined the impact of far-UV light on skin using mice and found that “222 nm-UVC lamps can be safely used for sterilizing human skin.”

One company, Healthe, is already selling a few different UV light products, including far-UV lights meant to be used in public spaces. One is a downlight that can be installed in the ceiling of an average room. There is also a portal, similar to a metal detector, that claims it “inactivates over 90% of contaminants” if a person stands — arms up — inside the portal for 10 to 12 seconds.

The company says another way to use ultraviolet is to irradiate air as it passes through a sealed unit, like a building air-conditioning system. Since that doesn’t expose people to the rays, it can use different, more powerful wavelengths.
