Benzene?

I had a teacher during a HAZWOPER class that visited China for an Environmental/Health Safety conference. Pretty high strung OSHA type guy. He told a story he was walking around the conference building between sessions and he smelt benzene and started freaking out looking around for a chemical spill. Turns out the Chinese janitor was cleaning the floor with benzene....



I mean I would laugh but honestly not surprised. I am actually more surprised that they were using something even more dangerous like acrylonitrile or some sort of cyanide compound.
I've seen it Scramjet.
Dude selling food in bags that hold liquid DDT.

Priceless.

Story time: Someone I knew had a doctor die infront of the hospital after eating a melon. HCN poisoning.

Food vendor got the firing squad.

Japan is really hitting the medal count hard. Must be sweeping all of the Judo and Karate weight classes.


So how does infection rate of this novCorona outbreak on this ship compare to typical Norovirus outbreaks on cruise ships?

Japan will be a good one to watch. If the disease spreads rapidly through an advanced disciplined population that is a bad sign.

I think their mortality rate, incubation time and recovery time will be way more reliable than anything coming from the mainland.


Someone go over to the GB and ask BiB how the mood in japan is

34 y.o doctor that first warned about the virus died about 3 weeks after falling ill.

New report says he is in fact still alive but very sick.

He got better..... maybe.


WSJ reporting dead.

On the positive side, if India is about to have an outbreak the number of spam calls I get in a day should drastically reduce.
Got a spam call today. Didn't answer just sent to voicemail. The voicemail said I had to call the number back immediately or face legal action. No who or what or why. Just if I didn't call them immediately back they would take legal action.

Was one of the strangest in a while.

Probably much worse. It's highly infectious. Confined space. Herds of people coming in contact with each other over four to seven days.

US Navy shore leave needs to be canceled throughout the fleet immediately. Sorry sailors.....

As far as Japan goes with the medal count. They are going to rocket ahead other "civilized" nations.

Check out this subway stuffing video and draw your own conclusions.

Over the last two weeks, tech companies working with the W.H.O., have been prominently posting links to W.H.O. content, making falsehoods harder to find in searches or on news streams, and sometimes removing content altogether.

The companies, including Google, Facebook and Twitter, would not provide interviews for this article but did confirm that the work they are doing with the W.H.O. was among their efforts to combat coronavirus misinformation. The companies also are doing work independently of the W.H.O. relationship to help eradicate coronavirus misinformation.


The WHO, getting their obvious false statistics from Communist China, is working with big media to remove any information that may result in "false rumors".

Okay I picked those two as a joke because of how insanely dangerous they both are but wow, I guess nothing should shock me about China.

That guy should have gotten the firing squad for that.

China: 48% men smoke and only 1.9% of women.....



ACE2 protein in the lungs is more prevalent in people who smoke or have a history of smoking.

ACE2 is bad when it comes to the virus.

Work for an Indian owned global company. I'm interested to see how it impacts them over there. I'm supposed to go over sometime around May/June.

Could smog, aka air polution also cause ACE2 formation in the lungs?

So much for that whole "woman shortage" problem, eh?

This epidemic has produced more conspiracy theories than Area 51.

ACE2 being a pathway into the body for this virus is not a conspiracy theory. Its the same with SARS, and thats one of the possible vaccines they have been working on. How SARS interacts with ACE2 proteins.

If you weren't promoting a conspiracy theory, then I'm not sure why you mentioned the proportion of male and female smokers in China.

You realize that the virus develops into pneumonia, right? If you have respiratory problem from smoking and the smog in China, I imagine men are more likely to get the virus without knowing anything else.

Please watch and share. Interesting breakdown of how the infection runs it's course from symptoms to recovery. The headline is a little misleading, he only spends a few seconds on the numbers. The majority is about how the virus runs.

Share it with at least one friend or family member. Use the power of the Aggie network for good.

Knowledge helps quell fears. We can beat this.

**** even if it has nothing to do with the protein entry, most of the deaths are from lack of oxygen.Smoking rips your lungs up, the more efficient your lungs are, the better your chances of survival.

Respond to a point, its lazy to just say "conspiracy theory".

Well, then don't expect people to know that your comments are relating to the video.

If your comments are in a previous message, people are going to assume they aren't related to the video that follows, unless you specifically say otherwise. HTH.

Someone should show this to CNN And Natural News. Actual reporting that's not just designed for clickbait.

IF this turns out to be CV, people are going to **** their pants. I'm going to say it's something more common like bad meth or heroine ODs....

Edit tweet not showing up. 4 homeless found unresponsive in LA county is the story.

I agree it's normal for homeless to have health issues....IF it's CV then people will freak.

Its interesting that BNO had to clarify that they also tweet about other news than just CV....
