Regarding the safety of CQ: Patients who received high dose CQ had prolonged QTcF > 500 milliseconds on ECG, compared to the low dose CQ group. High dose CQ vs Low dose CQ: 18.9% vs 11.1% in all patients 24.1% vs 3.6% in PCR confirmed #covid19 patients

@dog_feelings By crushing our humans with love we calm them and remove their stress. They then breathe and sweat different chemicals which we can detect and we know that our smushing is working. Also. We get pets. Win win. ❤️

Maybe we’re framing it wrong? By touting ‘opening up America again’, it makes it sound like America is closed. We’re not closed. We’re literally all in hiding. From a virus. That will kill many of us. If it finds us. In a shop. Or on a beach. In NYC. Or Oklahoma. 🥔,🥔.

If we want to save lives, we need to know where the virus is!

What an important life lesson. We may learn something relatively quickly and feel competent. However, it is only more experience that makes us realize the true implications. #NeverTooSmall
