Helder Ribeiro one of the most intelligent observations I’ve seen online, spot on. In general changing you mind is seen as somehow weak, too many fragile egos & overblown personas around.
He's been scaremongering for months. What a complete nothing-burger. People's lives have been destroyed for something that's less harmful than the flu. You've been fooled.
Dr. Chris Martenson, USA, was saying masks would protect you from the person who had the virus weeks ago. He took a lot of abuse for doing so but stuck to his guns and has received very little recognition. He deserves many thanks from the people who listened to him, much like yourself.
*@pcuimac* how’s gold holding up vs the stock market? Not so foolish all the sudden. Appreciating the value-preservation ability of commodities doesn’t make someone a goldbug. A century ago you could buy a nice suit for 1oz of gold. Today you can still buy a nice suit for 1oz of gold. That’s a fact that causes objective people to consider gold as unusually good at value-preservation. It’s quite difficult to come up with any other way to store value that has that quality and track record. I wish you and yours all the best, cheers!
I agree based on the idea that health care workers are getting sicker because of the "large amounts of the virus" they are being exposed to. Well, then it is reasonable that if you can reduce the amount you are exposed to, your body stands a better chance of fighting it. Masks won't prevent it 100% but it should reduce the exposure.
I 'be been watching Dr John Campbell for quite a while and found his presentation of facts extremely helpful. All in one place and daily updates. As far as I'm concerned Dr Campbell should be Knighted by the Queen for all his hard work, fortitude, love of us humans and his impeccable presentation. He is not a "racist" he is a God fearing human being who cares. 🙏🏻 God Bless you Dr Campbell keep you well and safe, and may we all pull through this nightmare quickly. Be safe, wear masks and gloves, stay home people next two weeks are critical. 🙏🏻❤️🇺🇸🌎🌧❤️👍🏻🙏🏻
He is obviously a brilliant health care professional, displaying a perfect mix of genuine altruism and technically, extremely competent too. I was an NHS Paramedic and I worked in South Wales until I unfortunately was 'Ill health retired' from the Job I loved.. (Every day, I actually looked forward to going to work...how's that as an indicator of Job satisfaction!) All employees of the NHS are 99.9% good, caring individuals who will give their all to help those in need, couple that with someone who is obviously an academic in his 'field' too and you have a winner! Dr John Campbell is a perfect example of this! He should have some sort of Recognition for his devotion to keep the world informed in a objective, scientific yet sensitive manner...after this nightmare is over, and I am sure that, one day it will be...Dr John Campbell OBE....? Anyone agree? let me know and perhaps we could , when the time is right, write to the appropriate people and get a petition or similar started? just a thought....take care and stay safe Word! Nos da! Cymru am byth!
Just wanted to reiterate how very much appreciated you are, Dr. John. I look forward to your videos everyday, they are part of my mental and psychological survival! Thank you for soldiering on, day after day, just for us! Signed, an eternally grateful American .👍
"I've changed my mind on this. I think it's a good idea." There needs to be more people who are willing to look at the evidence and change their minds.
The "models" for how this "virus" spreads are as reliable as the models that claim that world will end in 12 years because of climate changes. That end didn't happen, and neither were those dooms day prophecies true, which claimed that the "virus" would kill millions of people. 90% of these models are based on "unknowns"
Dave Post, might not want to give nurse Campbell too much credit. If the “good Doctor” was honest, he should have told people to wear masks from practically the start. I’ve been saying for months now on this very channel that masks should be worn. Trying to tell people that they need to wear masks, even if they have to make them home made. Warning people that they need to start wearing masks immediately! This “Dr.” Campbell has been REMOVING my comments, sometimes within minutes of me posting. He has been ACTIVELY suppressing information about masks working. I know it wasn’t UA-cam that was removing my comments because I’ve also posted the very same comments on other channels and they weren’t removed. Be aware that this “Dr” also buys into every word uttered from the WHO without question. The WHO is CORRUPT and basically does everything it can to protect China’s interest. The leader of the WHO (Tedros) isn’t even a medical doctor. Tedros is a former Ethiopian politician who acted in a totalitarian fashion and was given a very questionable doctorate. Both my husband and myself work in the medical field and we both knew instinctively that masks were needed when the first reports came out of C19 being spread in aerosols. Anyone who work in the medical field with a lick of sense would have also know it and that includes this “Dr.” Campbell! But they kept their mouths shut because they parroted the WHO. While this nurse Campbell is very good at explaining medical information to the general public, be aware that you should NOT trust him to tell you the full truth. Make sure you look at lots of other sources of information about the pandemic too!
I think you need a standard for everyone because of the seriousness of the virus! Church's all need to close, lock downs and stay at home orders for everyone, wearing masks need to be followed and used by everyone. I don't know how many thousands more people need to die before people get with the program and just get on with it! Rural areas are still effected by infections of this virus, for heaven's sake. I mean how difficult it is to wear a mask?? Less difficult than getting oxygen from a machine to keep you or somebody else alive, that's for certain!!
@@indigoblue4791 it's true, some standards are universal. Physical distancing, washing hands, masks if you can, limiting exposure to other people in any setting. But tell me this. Can you honestly say that it is reasonable to order people to carry papers to allow them out of their front door when the nearest neighbor lives a mile away?
@@indigoblue4791 We all should be strict! But strict in NYC is going to look different from strict in Lost Hat, Montana. We have to use our actual brains for this stuff.
Yes we have been seeing that from Europe for quite a while now, from here it looks like the greatest concentration of dense people is around Washington and New York
@@kevelliott I have no idea if I'm a millennial but I am British. The only other time I've heard that in my nearly 30 years is in Muppets Treasure Island from Fozzie.
why is it happeneing? because he caused many deaths by saying it is just a flu, keep going out? or because he pushed the brexit through and is NOT going the community way, but deciding against Europe and for Trump, to break the peace we had so far...?
The guy is human, personally I consider him a liar and I beleive he puts many people at risk, but...he's human. You can't not hope he pulls through for that fact alone. He is someones son, someones (maybe many peoples!) partner. I guess his pet dog loves him. So as a human then of course i hope he makes it, easily, with no complications. Going forward though i feel there should be a vote of confidence. The guy had the top experts of the science and healthcare fields giving him advice and...he went to a hospital and shook hands with patients then boasted abut it. He does not understand risk. In my mind that makes him unsuitable as a leader.
We need some good news. It's been quite a bummer for long enough. The weather's fine, my garden is growing and I have gotten to witness the miracle of birth over the last two days with my batch of chicks hatching. Momma and babies are doing excellent. So far, we have seven, healthy young ones! I'll take any reason to smile.
Our air quality is a lkt better these days. Thats some good news. There is serious debate, that will take a while to work through the data, that the better air quality may, in the long run, save more lives than Covid19 takes. Lets not go back to sitting in traffkc everh day after this. Lets learn.
Well, he did other videos before this series! But hopefully he will have a more 'official' job with the health ministry in some spokesperson capacity. He is one of the few who will have any credibility when it is done.
@Dr. John Campbell: I have discovered your teaching website, and I love the way you jumped from teaching specialized students on a specific platform to doing this, teaching the wider public about this in simple terms, as soon as this seemed to become a concern. This is real third mission in action. Respect from a fellow teacher/researcher (in a completely different field). Love from Italy. Lockdown saves lives!
"...cruise ships, not CURSE ships, it was a genuine mistake, honest!" Aw we know Dr Campbell, but let's not beat about the bush, we PREFER the mistake. 😂
Dear Dr. John: how I like your honesty and humility when you admit to changing your mind about using masks!!! Also: loved your comments on cats and dogs ;)
Dr. John Campbell, I appreciate your updates immensely. Recently, your videos have been my sole source of updates on the pandemic, most days. That is because you share truthful information and appropriate, useful professional recommendations - never in a sensationalistic way. Thank you for the work that you do. Cheers from Canada.
Thats why I love the Doc!! He mentioned Tony Spell and the level of concern for having church services right now. At the same time he made sure to say a majority of churches are taking advantage of online services. Truth. Love you Dr Campbell! Prayin for you.
I live in the US and have been wearing a mask for several weeks. I don't understand why this hasn't been mandatory since day one. It is just common sense.
I bought ten masks for my sister in the UK from a supplier in Hong Kong, last week (I'm in Australia). Why haven't the health services bought up all the masks on eBay? There is no real shortage, it's a scape goat to get the hospital administration off the hook. It's not as if this 'shortage' wasn't well known about MONTHS ago: www.dailyexaminer.com.au/news/90-tonnes-of-supplies-shipped-to-china/3983282/ Maybe they were intending these masks be sold back to us, but surely the various health departments in the west should have figured out this was coming home to roost? Peak Prosperity was campaigning for mask wearing in January.
It should be noted that the category of “mild” is very very broad. While it includes people who aren’t showing symptoms or barely any symptoms, it also includes people who suffer through 12 days of high fever and misery.
WadmanP thank you! Like Chris Cuomo. He has a live video podcast thing. His description of what he’s going through is intense. 12 days of high fever and the weird dreams/hallucinations that go with it. He’s lost 13 pounds despite his wife cooking massive and delicious meals for him. This isn’t something that will keep a person off work for 3 days. Much longer. 3 weeks or a month.
I'm looking at the definition of mild as being between 1 - 80 as per the 80% it covers. Assess the symptoms and assign a number. The first 20 - 30% can have a variety of symptoms with varying degrees of severity but can tough it out at home just like you would with "normal" flu. 31 - 80% scales everything up. Unfortunately local rules might mean you have no chance of getting tested even if you are at the very top of that range. One problem mentioned is that you can be ill with all of the symptoms but can't tick the box that you have been in known contact with someone who has tested positive.
You have a hypnotic and calming effect on my brain and you have become part of my morning coffee routine. I suspect you have this effect on other people. You’re a wonderful teacher. Thank you for your commitment to us from the bottom of my heart.
Brill John keep em coming I'm a registered nurse myself and I find your videos more informative than our governments info love it and thanks Yul Scotland 🏴
Hello Dr. John From 🇨🇦, Thank you very much for all you Do ! Thinking of Boris your PM & Wishing Him a Speedy Recovery ! Cheers and well wishes from across the Pond !
When I wear a mask it reminds me not to touch my face and to keep my distance. I've been wearing a home made one. 2 bull dog clips tied to each end of a scrap of elastic. Some paper towel or cloth folded concertina style just clips in. I dispose of the cloth carefully when I get home. Thanks for your sane fact sharing. I'm glad Australia seems to be listening so far.
@@icantbebotheredwithnames Out here in the west many of us are using saddle blankets. Maybe Hepa filter is better, but can you actually buy one anywhere? Stores still have swamp cooler filters but I'm not sure that's got a tight enough weave and they tend to fit large.
Been following your channel since January. I was prepared as of early February! Your channel has saved lives!!! I live in Louisiana, testing here is much better accessible than most of US. Antibody test here may truly show a large portion here were asymptomatic. All reading this please be well and safe!!!
Where in Louisiana are you? I’m in West Monroe,, my son just came back with a negative .. it’s crazy how people are at all the grocery stores at one time!!! God Bless you and yours
Interesting how much people love their pets , love them (animals) to be infected . In the past experience the animals give back to humans the germs they got from humans. Like armadillo gives humans back leprosy. People quarantine with their pets in the same bed! So much love!
Like Reese Mogg? I heard he made a healthy profit from Brexit (while sitting in a position that could manipulate the length and direftion of government decisions on the matter - conflict of interest?) and now his investment company advising they can make a killing from this virus? Is that who you mean?
@Jack Hole The one that you're looking in? This from a person touting cheap Chinese solar battery monitors on his home page? ... priceless... you're Dominic Cummings and I claim my fiver.
I'm sorry people are so low as to do that. But KY is still the homeland of the heart! I live now (no, not my birthday) but I'm from Louisville & Berea,
So now, like the communists, you want to force imprisonment - maybe even death? - on christians who exercise their constitutional rights. You do not *_know_* that this virus is worse than any flu. The models for its spread are based 90% on *_unknowns_* and *_assumptions._* And they have until now been *_way off in their predictions._* This is the biggest scam in history. Italy has the oldest population in Europe. It's pretty *_normal_* that you die when you get old. You can also die from the flu, if you has other conditions.
Talked to a friend of mine in northern Italy today and he claimed that the situation is worse than the numbers indicate. Yes the official numbers are down, but more people just die in their homes now, and are not on the statistics because they are not tested after death. He also clamied that testing of people generally was way down from before. If that is correct, the reduction in Italy might be partially artificial.
Anecdotal reports from Intensive care doctors say that 80% of intubated people don't make it. Now if we know that 5-6% of people need icu and we have a fallacy in the number of affected people; do the math yourself. Every single country is spilling bullshit, some more than others. Everything is artificial when there are so many cloudy factors to account. Numbers are down in Italy nonetheless simply because the country has been in lockdown for almost a month now, that's the only reality you can have, because this is the only way you have to stop the virus when you are too late with it and trust me, most of the world is already late with it and doesn't even have the right citizens to deal with it; too many spoiled people around. Biology needs humility and respect, there is no easy way around it.
guglielmo scecspir Real numbers are only down when we starve the virus. In Wuhan, household members were feeding the virus which created another surge during lockdown.
i'm from northern italy, numbers are lowering in % but they are indeed higher that what we're reporting, and we sure had more casualties and also way more people who got past the disease without realizing it.anyway i think number are shet everywhere , we're just misurating the tip of the iceberg. Also the idea of thinking this randomly started all in China in november is shet too, because none of the numbers of a single state around the world sit well with the timeline of the spread. just do the math, every state curve can be tracked down to september , way before the first reported cases, unless you change randomly the r0 in the phases of the spread to fit the datas, as they keep doing. 2017, 2018 and 2019 were all terrible years for influenza, it's possible sarscov2 was already around the globe but less pathogenic and then, through concordant evolution, with the upgrade of this year (polybasic protein cleavage) it has shown his presence to the world.
Thank you, Dr. John, I heard your message loud and clear: USA is in trouble! And it is so strange, Dr. Gupta says wipe down your groceries when you get home and yet the president says...'wear a mask if you want'..God help us.
I see a disturbing number of people who still think this is hyped up/a hoax/due to 5G/etc. We are a mess over here..this is going every bit as miserably as I thought it would. I'm just thankful that the governor of my state has gone above and beyond to protect us, even when everyone thought he was crazy for shutting things down early. Ohio is very fortunate, I hope wherever you are you're surrounded by people taking precautions
It's staggering that a large amount of the American public are still being so ignorant about this pandemic. Initially it was a hoax, now the latest conspiracy theory is that fatalities are due to other conditions but are being reported as covid19 to undermine Trump's campaign. Are people that uneducated and gullible over there? Extremely worrying for America if large amounts of people believe these conspiracy theories over medical experts!?!?
Most of America has been complying with the shelter in place orders. Restaurants, bars, sporting events, shops... have been closed for weeks. Stop dissing your country. We are and have been flattening the curve, educating our children at home, and sewing masks.
Christhorpe Junction that is the mindset that we have (the people in my home) been using. I only go out for food, and I give everyone a wide berth, and everyone gives me a wide birth. Has to be this way. Take care.
I wear a mask around my family and when going out. Basically at all times. I assume I have it always so I do not spread it in the air to my old parents. I can't expect everyone in the family to do that, but I'd at least expect my siblings to wash their fucking hands before touching anything. They don't. No way to know of they carry it, and if they do, they may have it on their hands. Least they can do is wash them before touching things in the kitchen and stuff. They don't. FUCKING retards if my parents die from this I'll never speak to them ever again. Idiots. Selfish idiots
@Angry Hippo You need a meltblow machine to make effective masks. Or are you taking the American govt advice to cover your face with some old underwear while handing all of the medically approved masks that "don't work" (and which the govt is buying up)?
So happy to see you smile when you said you had more encouraging things to say. Dr Campbell you've been a source of sanity throughout so much of this craziness. I really wish heads of state were paying attention to your videos in February.
California took it seriously in 1918 as well San Francisco being the first to enforce quarantine in 1918 compared to the rest of large U.S. cities. History repeats itself!
Hope you can soon monetize these videos- they are so incredibly detailed and right down to the point. Thank you so much for your dedication to covering this topic and undoubtedly saving lives, Doc John!
dr campbell, i do believe tony spell misspoke when he said "his place is the safest place in world"...i do believe he actually meant , "his wallet is the safest thing in the world".
Wonder if he and/or other patients are being given hydroxy-zinc-Zpak. Seems like hospitals in other countries are using these compounds as their 'trials'. Haven't heard anything about UK hospitals using them.
@@bilbowilbo9849 we are trialling false hope. We say stuff the EU, we can build our own ventilators thanks...and then we hold off ordering them and starg prioritising orders by which company owner donated the most to the Tory party. Also, having cut funding and privatised the only profitable sections of our healh service over the last ten years, we decided that a quick clap on the doorstep every Thursday will easily make up for that. So he'lll be fine. Once thjs is over Priti Patel can cast an evil smirk and kick outall those european doctors and nurses. She must hate having to offer them a chance to stay and help without even charging them for thatm privelage? Where the heck is she anyway? Been mia since this al, began. Did she pop off on another clandestine state meeting, kept off book, and is now stuck due to the lockdown?
Yeah the guy is hideous on the inside, but i wish him well nonetheless as I refuse to be a monster like him and wish harm upon others by ignorance We'll let god determine his lifeline May Allah forgive and help us all

Thank you, Dr. John for your dedication to information. You are priceless. So sorry to hear about PM Boris. I hope he has a full recovery. Love from Texas
Ernest Scribbler I understand you will need to go out to get more food. But the stores are just as packed now as they were when people were buying out the toilet paper.
@@ernestscribbler2294 , order delivery. Protect yourself, and the people inside the grocery store. Some people just cannot stand staying indoors. I have a neighbor that I see goes to the grocery store just about every day with three bags in her hand each time. FFS, do all of your shopping for two weeks at one time. 🙄
In the US, states are responding differently because of different conditions. Example, Wyoming a state of 97.8K square miles has a population density of 6/sq mile. New York state consists of 54.6K square miles has a density of 421/sq mile. So why would people in rural Wyoming "stay at home?"
Density does matter when you can't escape each other in public, it's ANY togetherness THAT does MATTER. Playing Russian Roulette with innocent peoples' lives is the epitome of arrogance and evil and has Karma tied to it. They have a right to trust and live their lives.
A agree. Driving from town to the ranch doesn't expose anyone. It's also pretty much essential if other people want to keep eating. We have to use our brains and adjust to local conditions. Anything we can do that is productive, and healthy, and doesn't increase our exposure, is good. A lockdown doesn't have to be "stay in the safe room." It's all about exposure and driving down that R-0.
The prime minister of Denmark, Mette Frederiksen wants to start sending kids up to 5th grade back to school after Easter. I think it is really a very very bad idea!
Yes it is a crazy idea but we have given up on trying to contain it. But may be we do not have that many infected. We have done around 50.000 tests and out of them were 4647 infected. We have 3082 active cases now. Guess they are trying to get herd immunity among kids, their parents and teachers. It is up to each mayor to decide if time is right to open schools. Hopefully schools will only open where there is little to none spread.
I live in the states, Myrtle Beach South Carolina. Gov. not taking this serious, many businesses still open, I left my job because I'm 66 with a pre-existing condition and my work place isn't essential, and still refuses to close. I appreciate all the work you do putting these videos together for us. Thank you.
Note for John: USA producing anti-body test. Blood vial and test strip versions. Also deploying RNA tests that use the same machine as the StrepThroat test which are deployed already all over the country.
So not to burst your bubble, the Abbott test, "ID NOW" is an Antigen test. You have the virus or not. It is swab based. Antibody testing is either blood spots, dried blood or venous/finger prick. Think diabetes testing. There are numerous firms that have the ELISA based Antibody testing i,e, IgM, IgG, however, ELISA is 96 well plates and the CV ranges 80-90%. Additionally, ELISA is notoriously slow and cumbersome.
Likely they are holding off because detecting that you have had it but are still contagious has limited value, they want a test that shows you had it, are immune and not a carrier-which might not ever happen, we might always be a carrier, or be a carrier for more than a month after symptoms-all these people without symptoms, how long have they had it?
@12MAN NATION I am one person removed from Tacoma by hundreds of times and hundreds of truckers. This is an expected "Black Swan Event" for some of us. It looks like the researchers working out of the Wuhan Lab were too sloppy when dealing with this bat virus both in their lab and in the bat caves.
I had exactly these symptoms in late December last year. I felt as if there was something in my lungs and felt very out of breath walking up stairs and so on. At the time I just considered this a normal virus and so therefore continued on a trip we had planned to Brighton for the New Year. I remember walking up that long steep hill to Brighton station carrying my heavy travel bags and forcing myself really hard to complete the walk brisksly as I felt it would strengthen my lungs and help get over the virus. I must say that this was a different virus to the normal ones I am used to: I was checking the pollution levels at home and also felt so clogged up that I though there may have been some sort of chemical spill from nearby factories releasing irritants. Unfortunatelty, just as everybody who has a similar story right now, I have no idea if this was or wasn't COVID-19 and am sticking to all the suggested precautions. The virus was first identified in late November 2019 so i'm wondering if I was actually one of the first to get it in this country somehow...
@@MB-14 Yet we still don't know for sure. I think though even if it is the case we should still take all the precautions: I have been doing this since January and don't go out much or socialise anyway. Mainly because I'm naturally like that. We need testing, but I think we should still be cautious even after testing until we can get a real handle on how this thing works. Viral load theory would explain why people are getting it worse now as there's more of it around especially Dr's and nursing homes etc. Places where there are a lot of sick people with significant illness.
@@MB-14 In terms of pnuemonia: I know from family experice (my grandad died of it a few years ago) and then my Mum caught it and it almost killed her too. But I would say you would know about it if you have a chest infection to the point of pneumonia: I mean you feel so ill you cannot move much and can only lie down. It's a horrible disease and leaves permanent damage in most cases. Already millions die of pnuemonia every year-something like 400,000 children under the age of 10, and many adults too. Now with COVID-19 that will surely go up massively.
We've been watching Dr. Campbell for a few weeks now. He's truly seeing us through this pandemic with facts, figures and sound advice. We're watching from home, self-isolating ourselves from the rest of the world. He gives words of reason, words of wisdom and words of consciousness to the world. We think Dr. John Campbell deserves a Royal distinction from Queen Elisabeth (if not already) as a true hero for his country, the U.K. and the rest of the world. He cares.
Chris Daniels And there are people think they are so great to have ever made any mistakes when blaming others for theirs Is it our big mistake to cheer for them as our leaders.
Our Government does not care, Period. so people we are doomed, they have us right were they want us. I am praying for the soon catching away of the saints,
@@DerPilotMann In the US people are reporting they are being charged over $1000 by the hospitals just to get pulse checked and be told they have a fever. Many are staying home sick and not going for testing because they can't afford it.
I have carpal tunnel in both hands, and no funds to buy anything at all. I can't make one, and none are for sale right now. I had open heart surgery on December 3, 2019 (Quadruple bypass) and haven't worked since last year this time. I only get food stamps and have to go out to buy food. Of course I had three "colds" from my roommate and her grand daughter. One of those could of been the virus (I recovered very quickly.) but there was no fever or shortness of breath from any. I worry about myself. Not so much death, it just takes weeks to die. If it was fast I wouldn't care as much. Kill me fast, nobody cares that much if I croak.
@@sigma80 There are lots of compassionate people out there. I dont even know you but i feel bad for your situation. Couldnt your roommate get supplies for you? If not you could look into community programs. There might be good people out there willing to help. Maybe contact a local church and ask about volunteers etc. Good luck sigma80.
Those states , have few populations and are mostly rural .Wyoming is huge with less than a million people . They are not going to shut down ranching and farming.
joseph mclennan , especially not this time of year . There’s a tight schedule in farming and ranching. And it’s easy to keep your more vulnerable people protected and to practice safe distance . Plus any farmer or rancher knows how important a sterile environment is and would have knowledge and methods for preventing infection and cross infection. I’d trust their judgement
I'm incredibly proud of California for being as proactive as they have been. The only issue I have is that they didn't do it sooner, but I think it helped that so many large businesses in the bay area reacted over a week before the state did. Still, there's so much happening in the states that just makes me sad for my country.
I keep on hearing that the Captain of the ship was removed because his superiors lost trust in their subordinate therefore he was removed. They fail to realize that even more important is that the rank and file have trust in their superiors... They lost trust in their superiors during the Vietnam war and it was a disaster. The simple fact is that the 'chain of command' failed the Captain and the men and woman aboard that ship and left little room for following the chain of command.
. Exactly . The Captain acted to protect the sailors under his care. He had to have been forced into because of unresponsive higher ups . And did it full well knowing the repercussions but he put the welfare of men and woman under him over his career. My nephew leads the medical unit on the Roosevelt and Captain Crozier has their loyalty and respect
Some (bad) news from my country Romania: we are on lockdown (i.e., we need to have a paper if we get out of the house, stating the reason of our exit) but the situation is overall still pretty bad. Prior to the extension of quarantine for people coming from Western Europe, when only home isolation for 14 days was required, a lot of people were found out of their homes, not respecting the rules - which is probably the main reason we have over 4000 total cases as of today. Thankfully, mandatory institutionalized quarantine was recently extended to anyone returning from Western Europe. This should have been done a month ago, but better late than never! The biggest outbreak (currently over 1200 cases) is currenly in Suceava county and Suceava city, where the hospital acted as the main source of the outbreak, partly due to the lack of PPE and partly due to the sheer incompetence of the doctors working there. The city is in a more restrictive quarantine, i.e. you can't leave the city unless you have a very good reason and there are police checkpoints all around. There are HUGE problems in many other hospitals with spread of COVID-19 (especially in those not specialized in treating infectious diseases), to the point that all hospitals in the country stopped accepting anything but emergencies or COVID-19 patients. There were even cases of infected nurses and doctors in a maternity clinic in Timisoara city (still no news on the results of the tests for the babies). There is a huge lack of testing, our country has received some 200.000 tests from South Korea in late March and we are only receiving another batch of 200.000 in late April. We basically have to compete for tests and equipment with richer European countries (like the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain) and we don't have their bargaining power. We were also supposed to get an order of ventilators, but that fell through, as all European countries want to keep as many as possible for their own citizens. The current plan is to repair a few old ventilators that are currently broken and that were probably going to be discarded. The current lockdown has been extended, because in the absence of tests, staying home is the only thing we can do. Personally I live a in a small town in the countryside, I usually work with my father in our small shop but we had to close down completely, since there are a few worrying reports of cases in neighboring villages.
There has never been any question that masks can help, especially when worn by people who are infected, the issue is wether they contribute a SIGNIFICANT contribution to the spreading situation and here the answer is a categorical NO, the main form of transmission is fomite, the physical transfer of liquid carrying virus passed from the infected to the next 'victim' by actual contact, it is this method that we can interrupt that will suppress the epidemic and controlling ALL the other transmission routes put together will not amount to much. The concept that by some drastic measures we can eliminate this virus before it has found its own way round and out is typical of the idiotic mindset that supposes that we have the resources to 'control' the environment in which we live, we certainly can screw it up quite a lot but whatever the natural laws that apply also apply to us we are in it not on it.
It has been widely reported (Peak Prosperity) that the mild symptoms often turn nasty after persisting for 10 days. It is then that bacterial infection (pneumonia) sets in. Boris reaches day 10, no better, so they whisk him off to ICU and pump him full of antibiotics. Hope their tactics work, hope everyone is lucky enough to receive that level of precautionary treatment.
There's no treatment for viral pneumonia, and the body's immune response also kills infected cells as well as the virus. Too much damage to the lung causes inflammation and lymph leaks into the lungs filling them with liquid (oedema). It is into that lymph that the bacteria opportunistically take advantage of to breed in, and reduce lung function even further. If Boris Johnson is on a respirator, he's in deep trouble. He can still die from the oedema without contracting a bacteria infection. I've had Viral Bronchitis and it's no joke. I ended up in A and E on a nebuliser, struggling for breath. Luckily, a strong dose of ventolin reduced inflammation and opened up my airways. I was home the same day. The fact that Boris is in the ICU means it's serious.
@@beakyturf6336 Of course antibiotics don't generally kill viruses, but I think there's a big problem with bacterial pneumonia co-occurring with covid, and they might help there.
On statistics: Did we ever test everyone from one of the cruiseships that got infected? I'm thinking that a cruise ship with 3-5k ppl on board is a pretty perfect sample to see how many % got what symptoms etc.
@@fearless4371 True, and they were quarantined. Our early one or two cases, I believe came from Lackland AFB, vis a vis the cruise liner. The known infected were separated, and the positive sent to Omaha, NE. Then, as time went on, more began showing symptoms.

Dr. Chris Martenson, USA, was saying masks would protect you from the person who had the virus weeks ago. He took a lot of abuse for doing so but stuck to his guns and has received very little recognition. He deserves many thanks from the people who listened to him, much like yourself.
D Loydel , He's been surprisingly accurate. Case case cluster cluster boom!
Yep, but isn't he named Martenson? His channel is Peak Prosperity as is his homepage. He is some kind of Gold bug, but we all have our faults.
*@pcuimac* how’s gold holding up vs the stock market? Not so foolish all the sudden.
Appreciating the value-preservation ability of commodities doesn’t make someone a goldbug. A century ago you could buy a nice suit for 1oz of gold. Today you can still buy a nice suit for 1oz of gold. That’s a fact that causes objective people to consider gold as unusually good at value-preservation. It’s quite difficult to come up with any other way to store value that has that quality and track record.
I wish you and yours all the best, cheers!
The time will tell that he was right
I agree based on the idea that health care workers are getting sicker because of the "large amounts of the virus" they are being exposed to. Well, then it is reasonable that if you can reduce the amount you are exposed to, your body stands a better chance of fighting it. Masks won't prevent it 100% but it should reduce the exposure.
I 'be been watching Dr John Campbell for quite a while and found his presentation of facts extremely helpful. All in one place and daily updates. As far as I'm concerned Dr Campbell should be Knighted by the Queen for all his hard work, fortitude, love of us humans and his impeccable presentation. He is not a "racist" he is a God fearing human being who cares. 🙏🏻 God Bless you Dr Campbell keep you well and safe, and may we all pull through this nightmare quickly. Be safe, wear masks and gloves, stay home people next two weeks are critical. 🙏🏻❤️🇺🇸🌎🌧❤️👍🏻🙏🏻
He is obviously a brilliant health care professional, displaying a perfect mix of genuine altruism and technically, extremely competent too. I was an NHS Paramedic and I worked in South Wales until I unfortunately was 'Ill health retired' from the Job I loved.. (Every day, I actually looked forward to going to work...how's that as an indicator of Job satisfaction!) All employees of the NHS are 99.9% good, caring individuals who will give their all to help those in need, couple that with someone who is obviously an academic in his 'field' too and you have a winner! Dr John Campbell is a perfect example of this! He should have some sort of Recognition for his devotion to keep the world informed in a objective, scientific yet sensitive manner...after this nightmare is over, and I am sure that, one day it will be...Dr John Campbell OBE....? Anyone agree? let me know and perhaps we could , when the time is right, write to the appropriate people and get a petition or similar started? just a thought....take care and stay safe Word! Nos da!

Dave Post, might not want to give nurse Campbell too much credit. If the “good Doctor” was honest, he should have told people to wear masks from practically the start. I’ve been saying for months now on this very channel that masks should be worn. Trying to tell people that they need to wear masks, even if they have to make them home made. Warning people that they need to start wearing masks immediately! This “Dr.” Campbell has been REMOVING my comments, sometimes within minutes of me posting. He has been ACTIVELY suppressing information about masks working. I know it wasn’t UA-cam that was removing my comments because I’ve also posted the very same comments on other channels and they weren’t removed. Be aware that this “Dr” also buys into every word uttered from the WHO without question. The WHO is CORRUPT and basically does everything it can to protect China’s interest. The leader of the WHO (Tedros) isn’t even a medical doctor. Tedros is a former Ethiopian politician who acted in a totalitarian fashion and was given a very questionable doctorate.
Both my husband and myself work in the medical field and we both knew instinctively that masks were needed when the first reports came out of C19 being spread in aerosols. Anyone who work in the medical field with a lick of sense would have also know it and that includes this “Dr.” Campbell! But they kept their mouths shut because they parroted the WHO.
While this nurse Campbell is very good at explaining medical information to the general public, be aware that you should NOT trust him to tell you the full truth. Make sure you look at lots of other sources of information about the pandemic too!
@@CSWRB Campbell "buys into everything the WHO says without question"?
It's obvious now you have not been watching the channel.
They are parts of the US where you can go down a road and not see anyone for 30 miles. Our population density varies greatly. Sort of like Australia.
Very true. What works for New York City and California is down right stupid in rural areas.
I think you need a standard for everyone because of the seriousness of the virus! Church's all need to close, lock downs and stay at home orders for everyone, wearing masks need to be followed and used by everyone. I don't know how many thousands more people need to die before people get with the program and just get on with it! Rural areas are still effected by infections of this virus, for heaven's sake. I mean how difficult it is to wear a mask?? Less difficult than getting oxygen from a machine to keep you or somebody else alive, that's for certain!!
@@indigoblue4791 it's true, some standards are universal. Physical distancing, washing hands, masks if you can, limiting exposure to other people in any setting. But tell me this. Can you honestly say that it is reasonable to order people to carry papers to allow them out of their front door when the nearest neighbor lives a mile away?

Florida gov. DeSantis said church considered essential
Thanks you once again Sir Dr. John. You’re my daily source of truth and knowledge during this global crisis. Do take care of yourself ❤️🇨🇦.
I live in the US and have been wearing a mask for several weeks. I don't understand why this hasn't been mandatory since day one. It is just common sense.
As far as I know we are still trying not to wear commercial masks due to creating a shortage for healthcare workers.
I bought ten masks for my sister in the UK from a supplier in Hong Kong, last week (I'm in Australia).
Why haven't the health services bought up all the masks on eBay?
There is no real shortage, it's a scape goat to get the hospital administration off the hook.
It's not as if this 'shortage' wasn't well known about MONTHS ago:
www.dailyexaminer.com.au/news/90-tonnes-of-supplies-shipped-to-china/3983282/
Maybe they were intending these masks be sold back to us, but surely the various health departments in the west should have figured out this was coming home to roost?
Peak Prosperity was campaigning for mask wearing in January.
It should be noted that the category of “mild” is very very broad. While it includes people who aren’t showing symptoms or barely any symptoms, it also includes people who suffer through 12 days of high fever and misery.
exactly this. Mild includes everyone who wouldn't die if they couldn't get a hospital bed.
WadmanP thank you! Like Chris Cuomo. He has a live video podcast thing. His description of what he’s going through is intense. 12 days of high fever and the weird dreams/hallucinations that go with it. He’s lost 13 pounds despite his wife cooking massive and delicious meals for him. This isn’t something that will keep a person off work for 3 days. Much longer. 3 weeks or a month.
Ok but having a fever is very different from kidney/liver failure. So yes.........in the grand scheme of things this IS minor
Patient: how do we know if we have mild symptoms
Doctor: did you die?
Patient: no
Doctor: then you had mild symptoms
Patient: 😩
I'm looking at the definition of mild as being between 1 - 80 as per the 80% it covers. Assess the symptoms and assign a number. The first 20 - 30% can have a variety of symptoms with varying degrees of severity but can tough it out at home just like you would with "normal" flu. 31 - 80% scales everything up. Unfortunately local rules might mean you have no chance of getting tested even if you are at the very top of that range. One problem mentioned is that you can be ill with all of the symptoms but can't tick the box that you have been in known contact with someone who has tested positive.
You have a hypnotic and calming effect on my brain and you have become part of my morning coffee routine. I suspect you have this effect on other people. You’re a wonderful teacher. Thank you for your commitment to us from the bottom of my heart.

Talked to a friend of mine in northern Italy today and he claimed that the situation is worse than the numbers indicate. Yes the official numbers are down, but more people just die in their homes now, and are not on the statistics because they are not tested after death. He also clamied that testing of people generally was way down from before. If that is correct, the reduction in Italy might be partially artificial.
Anecdotal reports from Intensive care doctors say that 80% of intubated people don't make it. Now if we know that 5-6% of people need icu and we have a fallacy in the number of affected people; do the math yourself. Every single country is spilling bullshit, some more than others. Everything is artificial when there are so many cloudy factors to account. Numbers are down in Italy nonetheless simply because the country has been in lockdown for almost a month now, that's the only reality you can have, because this is the only way you have to stop the virus when you are too late with it and trust me, most of the world is already late with it and doesn't even have the right citizens to deal with it; too many spoiled people around. Biology needs humility and respect, there is no easy way around it.
@@guglielmoscecspir1053 well said and true.
guglielmo scecspir Real numbers are only down when we starve the virus. In Wuhan, household members were feeding the virus which created another surge during lockdown.
i'm from northern italy, numbers are lowering in % but they are indeed higher that what we're reporting, and we sure had more casualties and also way more people who got past the disease without realizing it.anyway i think number are shet everywhere , we're just misurating the tip of the iceberg.
Also the idea of thinking this randomly started all in China in november is shet too, because none of the numbers of a single state around the world sit well with the timeline of the spread. just do the math, every state curve can be tracked down to september , way before the first reported cases, unless you change randomly the r0 in the phases of the spread to fit the datas, as they keep doing.
2017, 2018 and 2019 were all terrible years for influenza, it's possible sarscov2 was already around the globe but less pathogenic and then, through concordant evolution, with the upgrade of this year (polybasic protein cleavage) it has shown his presence to the world.
Thank you, Dr. John, I heard your message loud and clear: USA is in trouble! And it is so strange, Dr. Gupta says wipe down your groceries when you get home and yet the president says...'wear a mask if you want'..God help us.

It's staggering that a large amount of the American public are still being so ignorant about this pandemic.

James, the answer is yes. Trump even said he loves the uneducated and the idiots eat it up.

Most of America has been complying with the shelter in place orders. Restaurants, bars, sporting events, shops... have been closed for weeks. Stop dissing your country. We are and have been flattening the curve, educating our children at home, and sewing masks.
Best way to deal with this, imagine you’ve got it and then imagine everyone you meet might have it and act accordingly.
Agree. And it may just be true.......
Christhorpe Junction that is the mindset that we have (the people in my home) been using. I only go out for food, and I give everyone a wide berth, and everyone gives me a wide birth. Has to be this way. Take care.
I wear a mask around my family and when going out. Basically at all times. I assume I have it always so I do not spread it in the air to my old parents. I can't expect everyone in the family to do that, but I'd at least expect my siblings to wash their fucking hands before touching anything. They don't. No way to know of they carry it, and if they do, they may have it on their hands. Least they can do is wash them before touching things in the kitchen and stuff. They don't. FUCKING retards if my parents die from this I'll never speak to them ever again. Idiots. Selfish idiots

dr campbell, i do believe tony spell misspoke when he said "his place is the safest place in world"...i do believe he actually meant , "his wallet is the safest thing in the world".
Thank you Dr. John Campbell. Again my best to you, your country, and get well soon PM Boris.
Boris Johnson shifted to the intensive care as his condition worsens. I wish him a speedy recovery.
😯 That's a bit shocking. I'm not a Boris fan, but that's still terrible. I wish him well.
rishabh raj naswa stop treatment and lets see if his heard immunity tactics works on him?
Wonder if he and/or other patients are being given hydroxy-zinc-Zpak. Seems like hospitals in other countries are using these compounds as their 'trials'. Haven't heard anything about UK hospitals using them.
@@bilbowilbo9849 we are trialling false hope.
We say stuff the EU, we can build our own ventilators thanks...and then we hold off ordering them and starg prioritising orders by which company owner donated the most to the Tory party.
Also, having cut funding and privatised the only profitable sections of our healh service over the last ten years, we decided that a quick clap on the doorstep every Thursday will easily make up for that.
So he'lll be fine.
Once thjs is over Priti Patel can cast an evil smirk and kick outall those european doctors and nurses. She must hate having to offer them a chance to stay and help without even charging them for thatm privelage? Where the heck is she anyway? Been mia since this al, began. Did she pop off on another clandestine state meeting, kept off book, and is now stuck due to the lockdown?
Not good. Early data from the UK showed 66% in the ICU patients died.

I wish him well.
Yeah the guy is hideous on the inside, but i wish him well nonetheless as I refuse to be a monster like him and wish harm upon others by ignorance

He’s a very important man. They put him in icu to make sure he recovers well. Even if it was milder he would have been admitted to icu

@@xxxmikeyjock A lady in her 70's was hospitalised with a suspected case of the flu. She then tested positive for the virus March 27th and died March 29th. I don't know if she had links to overseas travel or if she she had other health issues. Condolences to her family and people the world over who have lost loved ones during this pandemic.

Thank you, Dr. John for your dedication to information. You are priceless. So sorry to hear about PM Boris. I hope he has a full recovery. Love from Texas
That you Dr. John for your commitment. You are fast being a legend in my house
In my state, it seems the “Stay at home order” means go to any grocery store that is open. 😒
Yeah it seems kind of pointless, but then if you have a mask and stay away from people should be fine
Ernest Scribbler I understand you will need to go out to get more food. But the stores are just as packed now as they were when people were buying out the toilet paper.
Ita the same problem in ny state...people out shopping like nothing is wrong...bring all the kids too! Its a damned joke... No one is staying home!
Same here. 😒
@@ernestscribbler2294 , order delivery. Protect yourself, and the people inside the grocery store. Some people just cannot stand staying indoors. I have a neighbor that I see goes to the grocery store just about every day with three bags in her hand each time. FFS, do all of your shopping for two weeks at one time. 🙄
In the US, states are responding differently because of different conditions. Example, Wyoming a state of 97.8K square miles has a population density of 6/sq mile. New York state consists of 54.6K square miles has a density of 421/sq mile. So why would people in rural Wyoming "stay at home?"
Density does matter when you can't escape each other in public, it's ANY togetherness THAT does MATTER. Playing Russian Roulette with innocent peoples' lives is the epitome of arrogance and evil and has Karma tied to it. They have a right to trust and live their lives.
A agree. Driving from town to the ranch doesn't expose anyone. It's also pretty much essential if other people want to keep eating.
We have to use our brains and adjust to local conditions. Anything we can do that is productive, and healthy, and doesn't increase our exposure, is good.
A lockdown doesn't have to be "stay in the safe room." It's all about exposure and driving down that R-0.
If 50% of those infected have no symptoms it makes it more important that those who feel well wear face masks to reduce viral spread.
The prime minister of Denmark, Mette Frederiksen wants to start sending kids up to 5th grade back to school after Easter. I think it is really a very very bad idea!
Don’t send them back
Sweden thinks the same.
Yes it is a crazy idea but we have given up on trying to contain it. But may be we do not have that many infected. We have done around 50.000 tests and out of them were 4647 infected. We have 3082 active cases now. Guess they are trying to get herd immunity among kids, their parents and teachers. It is up to each mayor to decide if time is right to open schools. Hopefully schools will only open where there is little to none spread.
Stand up don't send them
@@pirjolindqvist7819 stand up and don't let them save your children
I assume that everyone not in my household is asymptomatic. I am very, very cautious.
You are a wise man.
Conversely every one in your house could be asymptomatic
Well according to dr.Campbell, if you r healthy and wearing a mask cannot stop you from getting the virus from sick people around you. Very strange.
As was I, now 10 days with allergy symptoms turning into a cough at night despite voluntary quarantine and social distancing since early March.

These videos keep me sticking to the regiment, stay at home, wash your hands, etc, The good doctor is like our Winston Churchill during the Blitz
I live in the states, Myrtle Beach South Carolina. Gov. not taking this serious, many businesses still open, I left my job because I'm 66 with a pre-existing condition and my work place isn't essential, and still refuses to close.
I appreciate all the work you do putting these videos together for us. Thank you.
Boris Johnson hope you get well soon and everyone else who has it🙏
Note for John: USA producing anti-body test.
Blood vial and test strip versions.
Also deploying RNA tests that use the same machine as the StrepThroat test which are deployed already all over the country.
Lol, another expert
We share what info we have. Can’t trust the media. Please don’t be mean.
So not to burst your bubble, the Abbott test, "ID NOW" is an Antigen test. You have the virus or not. It is swab based. Antibody testing is either blood spots, dried blood or venous/finger prick. Think diabetes testing. There are numerous firms that have the ELISA based Antibody testing i,e, IgM, IgG, however, ELISA is 96 well plates and the CV ranges 80-90%. Additionally, ELISA is notoriously slow and cumbersome.
Likely they are holding off because detecting that you have had it but are still contagious has limited value, they want a test that shows you had it, are immune and not a carrier-which might not ever happen, we might always be a carrier, or be a carrier for more than a month after symptoms-all these people without symptoms, how long have they had it?
Once antibody testing is more available, we need to start getting antibody donors.
Good morning from Washington state USA. Thank you for all you do!
Bellingham WA here
I'm down south by Long Beach WA!
@12MAN NATION I am one person removed from Tacoma by hundreds of times and hundreds of truckers. This is an expected "Black Swan Event" for some of us.
It looks like the researchers working out of the Wuhan Lab were too sloppy when dealing with this bat virus both in their lab and in the bat caves.
I had exactly these symptoms in late December last year. I felt as if there was something in my lungs and felt very out of breath walking up stairs and so on. At the time I just considered this a normal virus and so therefore continued on a trip we had planned to Brighton for the New Year. I remember walking up that long steep hill to Brighton station carrying my heavy travel bags and forcing myself really hard to complete the walk brisksly as I felt it would strengthen my lungs and help get over the virus. I must say that this was a different virus to the normal ones I am used to: I was checking the pollution levels at home and also felt so clogged up that I though there may have been some sort of chemical spill from nearby factories releasing irritants. Unfortunatelty, just as everybody who has a similar story right now, I have no idea if this was or wasn't COVID-19 and am sticking to all the suggested precautions. The virus was first identified in late November 2019 so i'm wondering if I was actually one of the first to get it in this country somehow...
@@MB-14 Yet we still don't know for sure. I think though even if it is the case we should still take all the precautions: I have been doing this since January and don't go out much or socialise anyway. Mainly because I'm naturally like that. We need testing, but I think we should still be cautious even after testing until we can get a real handle on how this thing works. Viral load theory would explain why people are getting it worse now as there's more of it around especially Dr's and nursing homes etc. Places where there are a lot of sick people with significant illness.
@@MB-14 In terms of pnuemonia: I know from family experice (my grandad died of it a few years ago) and then my Mum caught it and it almost killed her too. But I would say you would know about it if you have a chest infection to the point of pneumonia: I mean you feel so ill you cannot move much and can only lie down. It's a horrible disease and leaves permanent damage in most cases. Already millions die of pnuemonia every year-something like 400,000 children under the age of 10, and many adults too. Now with COVID-19 that will surely go up massively.
We've been watching Dr. Campbell for a few weeks now. He's truly seeing us through this pandemic with facts, figures and sound advice. We're watching from home, self-isolating ourselves from the rest of the world. He gives words of reason, words of wisdom and words of consciousness to the world. We think Dr. John Campbell deserves a Royal distinction from Queen Elisabeth (if not already) as a true hero for his country, the U.K. and the rest of the world. He cares.
Love the Brit humour and idiom! Love the U.K. Hope and pray for PM Boris Johnson.

50% display no symptoms - need a reliable antibody test soon!
Even people having mild symptoms, many were unable to get tested while infected.

@@DerPilotMann In the US people are reporting they are being charged over $1000 by the hospitals just to get pulse checked and be told they have a fever. Many are staying home sick and not going for testing because they can't afford it.

@@imhigh0013 probably speading so it wont end.
Lots of American quilters making masks all over US. Masks also remind people to stay away, AND reminds me to keep my hands from my face.

I have carpal tunnel in both hands, and no funds to buy anything at all. I can't make one, and none are for sale right now.
I had open heart surgery on December 3, 2019 (Quadruple bypass) and haven't worked since last year this time. I only get food stamps and have to go out to buy food.
Of course I had three "colds" from my roommate and her grand daughter. One of those could of been the virus (I recovered very quickly.) but there was no fever or shortness of breath from any.
I worry about myself. Not so much death, it just takes weeks to die. If it was fast I wouldn't care as much. Kill me fast, nobody cares that much if I croak.
@@sigma80 There are lots of compassionate people out there. I dont even know you but i feel bad for your situation. Couldnt your roommate get supplies for you? If not you could look into community programs. There might be good people out there willing to help. Maybe contact a local church and ask about volunteers etc. Good luck sigma80.
Those states , have few populations and are mostly rural .Wyoming is huge with less than a million people . They are not going to shut down ranching and farming.
They are the states produce mostly food. For us and livestock, and yes they are mostly rural.
joseph mclennan , especially not this time of year . There’s a tight schedule in farming and ranching. And it’s easy to keep your more vulnerable people protected and to practice safe distance . Plus any farmer or rancher knows how important a sterile environment is and would have knowledge and methods for preventing infection and cross infection. I’d trust their judgement
I would trust this man with my life. No questions asked.

I'm incredibly proud of California for being as proactive as they have been. The only issue I have is that they didn't do it sooner, but I think it helped that so many large businesses in the bay area reacted over a week before the state did. Still, there's so much happening in the states that just makes me sad for my country.
I keep on hearing that the Captain of the ship was removed because his superiors lost trust in their subordinate therefore he was removed. They fail to realize that even more important is that the rank and file have trust in their superiors... They lost trust in their superiors during the Vietnam war and it was a disaster. The simple fact is that the 'chain of command' failed the Captain and the men and woman aboard that ship and left little room for following the chain of command.
his superiors just might be cranks
. Exactly . The Captain acted to protect the sailors under his care. He had to have been forced into because of unresponsive higher ups . And did it full well knowing the repercussions but he put the welfare of men and woman under him over his career. My nephew leads the medical unit on the Roosevelt and Captain Crozier has their loyalty and respect
Dr. I'd just like to thank you for these daily updates. I appreciate and look forward to them.

Than you doctor John for some good news nice to hear a few positive things instead of doom and gloom
Some (bad) news from my country Romania: we are on lockdown (i.e., we need to have a paper if we get out of the house, stating the reason of our exit) but the situation is overall still pretty bad. Prior to the extension of quarantine for people coming from Western Europe, when only home isolation for 14 days was required, a lot of people were found out of their homes, not respecting the rules - which is probably the main reason we have over 4000 total cases as of today. Thankfully, mandatory institutionalized quarantine was recently extended to anyone returning from Western Europe. This should have been done a month ago, but better late than never!
The biggest outbreak (currently over 1200 cases) is currenly in Suceava county and Suceava city, where the hospital acted as the main source of the outbreak, partly due to the lack of PPE and partly due to the sheer incompetence of the doctors working there. The city is in a more restrictive quarantine, i.e. you can't leave the city unless you have a very good reason and there are police checkpoints all around. There are HUGE problems in many other hospitals with spread of COVID-19 (especially in those not specialized in treating infectious diseases), to the point that all hospitals in the country stopped accepting anything but emergencies or COVID-19 patients. There were even cases of infected nurses and doctors in a maternity clinic in Timisoara city (still no news on the results of the tests for the babies). There is a huge lack of testing, our country has received some 200.000 tests from South Korea in late March and we are only receiving another batch of 200.000 in late April. We basically have to compete for tests and equipment with richer European countries (like the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain) and we don't have their bargaining power. We were also supposed to get an order of ventilators, but that fell through, as all European countries want to keep as many as possible for their own citizens. The current plan is to repair a few old ventilators that are currently broken and that were probably going to be discarded. The current lockdown has been extended, because in the absence of tests, staying home is the only thing we can do.
Personally I live a in a small town in the countryside, I usually work with my father in our small shop but we had to close down completely, since there are a few worrying reports of cases in neighboring villages.
Best of results to you & thanks for sharing the info.

"Having said that I would not let a cat lick me". xD
about masks... 2wotds:
"South Korea"....
they work when everyone wears them! 😷😷😷
There has never been any question that masks can help, especially when worn by people who are infected, the issue is wether they contribute a SIGNIFICANT contribution to the spreading situation and here the answer is a categorical NO, the main form of transmission is fomite, the physical transfer of liquid carrying virus passed from the infected to the next 'victim' by actual contact, it is this method that we can interrupt that will suppress the epidemic and controlling ALL the other transmission routes put together will not amount to much. The concept that by some drastic measures we can eliminate this virus before it has found its own way round and out is typical of the idiotic mindset that supposes that we have the resources to 'control' the environment in which we live, we certainly can screw it up quite a lot but whatever the natural laws that apply also apply to us we are in it not on it.

Thank you Dr Campbell 😊. Come on Boris! Come on people of the world 😊 Stay safe people. We can get through this 😊
It has been widely reported (Peak Prosperity) that the mild symptoms often turn nasty after persisting for 10 days.
It is then that bacterial infection (pneumonia) sets in.
Boris reaches day 10, no better, so they whisk him off to ICU and pump him full of antibiotics.
Hope their tactics work, hope everyone is lucky enough to receive that level of precautionary treatment.
There's no treatment for viral pneumonia, and the body's immune response also kills infected cells as well as the virus. Too much damage to the lung causes inflammation and lymph leaks into the lungs filling them with liquid (oedema). It is into that lymph that the bacteria opportunistically take advantage of to breed in, and reduce lung function even further. If Boris Johnson is on a respirator, he's in deep trouble. He can still die from the oedema without contracting a bacteria infection. I've had Viral Bronchitis and it's no joke. I ended up in A and E on a nebuliser, struggling for breath. Luckily, a strong dose of ventolin reduced inflammation and opened up my airways. I was home the same day. The fact that Boris is in the ICU means it's serious.
Boris need to be treated with hydroxychloroquine and remdesivir.
Antibiotics? Who told you that?
@@beakyturf6336 Of course antibiotics don't generally kill viruses, but I think there's a big problem with bacterial pneumonia co-occurring with covid, and they might help there.
@@beakyturf6336 Prevents the bacteria which will try to take advantage of the pneumonia you have.

On statistics: Did we ever test everyone from one of the cruiseships that got infected? I'm thinking that a cruise ship with 3-5k ppl on board is a pretty perfect sample to see how many % got what symptoms etc.
Supposedly the one that was in Texas everyone was tested some were positive but most were negative. Im not sure if its true.
I do too but they did not and now they are back home they have too much exposure to be worth it I think
@@fearless4371 True, and they were quarantined. Our early one or two cases, I believe came from Lackland AFB, vis a vis the cruise liner. The known infected were separated, and the positive sent to Omaha, NE. Then, as time went on, more began showing symptoms.
I don't think so. The Canadian passengers were just kept in quarantine on an army base.
The Diamond Princess nearly 4000 passengers and crew 650 infected 3 deaths of people with comorbidities
