And as a final shitpost, I encourage people to read about how loving utterly metal the immune system is, and just how inconceivable it is that it's so effective. It's a machine to win a genetic arms race in a week where the opponent has been preparing for generations.

it sure sucks rear end when your immune system decides it wants to cause a ruckus when there's no threat tho

Sounds like his was an early-ish case, before others realized what they were dealing with, and was likely worsened by his work. Healthcare professionals are often at significantly elevated risk from the diseases they're working to treat, just look at how the doctor that discovered SARS also died of SARS.


What this post makes me think of is how much CO2 is currently not being pumped into the air by all those idle factories. At this rate the Wuhan coronavirus might buy human civilization another year or two.

They posted yesterday that no one will he allowed off the ship until Feb 19th at the earliest and now this.

There was a goon on the ship that docked in New York yesterday and they let everyone off but did remove some passengers by ambulance.

I’m not really sure why they didn’t confirm cases before letting people off but what do I know.

I thought you were supposed to toss the water from the first soak when reconstituting dry beans because it'll make you sick?

if this is because of kidney bean lectin cooking at a high enough temp (greater than boiling).

the danger is that if you cook them at below boiling the toxicity gets worse, so make sure the beans get hot enough
