Which is actually funnier since the actual Compendium entry for rhino horn is for curing fever, poisoning, and 'devil posession' heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolby 712 Posted March 26, 2020 #1986 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Regarding Chloroquine: In absence of a universal medicine, doctors all over the world are using different combinations to treat the patients. Chloroquine is a known drug for Malaria. Some doctors claimed that it was effective in Covid-19 as well. Trump was irresponsible in declaring it as a sure cure without enough clinical trials. We need to give people hope that a vaccine or atleast an effective treatment is around the corner but Trump should not have named the drug.

But yeah, in that case also not enough tests have been made to deem that the medicine is beneficial. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agger 1,591 Posted March 26, 2020 #1988 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Denmark is finally preparing to do more testing. Up to 5000 a day is expected. Yesterday just below 16.000 had been tested. So expect the Danish numbers to move up the next week or so. The numbers of people hospitalized is still growing also in the ICUs where the last couple of days has seen a significant growth at aout 25 %. Hope it won't stay at that rate. Then it will get rough in a week or so. up and down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,557 Posted March 26, 2020 #1989 Share Posted March 26, 2020 About testing in the Netherlands: it's still very limited due to very limited resources. They're especially in need of a certain kind of liquid used for the tests. Laboratories can quite easily create this mix if they have the 'recipe', but the Swiss manufacturer of the testing machines (pharmaceutical giant Roche) is refusing to share said recipe and can't deliver enough. They can't use those of different manufacturers, because when using machines and equipment of manufacturer A, you need the other stuff of manufacturer A as well.
