This is a non issue. I notice the docs in wazua are nowhere I guess they are busy looking for a vaccine.

But we need home grown solutions fast! On everything, production of vaccines, PPE, respirators etc Even if a vaccine is discovered in America - The American population will be first before they pick where else they would think of going next. I heard Mutahi say they are planning to import more respirators - From where? America is forcing GM to stop producing cars and produce respirators for their hospitals. Ford is working with GE to produce more respirators also. So who will be sending us these respirators?

Mutua is very right, dont just read the heading and run with it listen to what he says

And the UK and Sweden of herd mentality have started seeing that idea crumbling. Faster than the rates in Italy.

Only one method has worked. We know it. We have the data. The rest is conjecture. I don't want to be the guinea pig of an idea when a working one is right there infront of me.

@Alma, the method I am proposing hasn't even been used by the Swedes. They probably haven't figured it out. Plus the Swedes have not frozen the virus.

Again, I haven't excluded the use of tested methods on patients, and the methods to be used are non invasive and a reliable backing of studies already done in different fields.

For example, nanotechnology can describe what we should expect in the behavior of the virus...

One rule in self defense, is keep moving. No country alma, has proven that the siege strategy works. People are frozen in place indefinitely, and soon we might just see even how the siege strategy will crumble.

The challenge with covid is that the so called working solution is not workable in our situation. Let me illustrate.

Imagine farmer Johnson in Missouri has 100 head of cattle. He hears that there is an outbreak of a disease and that it spreads very fast when cattle go out to pasture. The disease will likely affect all his animals. However, 80 of his cows will suffer mild symptoms, maybe not eat for a day or three, but will eventually recover. 20 of his animals will get seriously ill and of these 5 will likely die unless he has sophisticated equipment and a top notch vetinary on hand, in which case he may only lose 3 cows. The remaining 15 sick cows will require advanced care in a special shed and daily cleaning and vitamins. He will have to hire extra people to take care of his 15 sick cows. To minimise the damage to his heard, he has the option of not taking them out to pasture. But then, what will they eat. If they do not eat for 21 days, he will have no herd to talk about. In steps his Govt. Since this is a cattle pandemic, the govt has realised that it has to support the farmers. It advices them to keep their animals in the shed. Meanwhile , the govt will supply hay from the strategic hay reserve to feed the cows for as long as they need to remain in the shed.

Now, contrast this with farmer Githinji in Ngecha. He has 100 cows that he pastures. The disease in Missouri has now reached Ngecha. Everyone is scared for their cattle. He has the option of keeping them in the shed but for how long? Nobody knows! There is talk that the disease could drag on for months. He has heard that giving extra vitamins can be protective but he is not sure. His govt has no strategic hay reserves though it is advicing him to keep his animals in the shed. If he takes them to pasture, he may lose 5 animals, have 15 very sick cows that he will need to take extra care not to lose. However, 80 of his cows will likely survive after a few days of showing symptoms. He can scramble his savings and hire extra help to take care of the 15 sick cows. He has never heard in his locality of a vet who can take care of the 5 very sick cows. He would have to import the vet and the required equipment and in any case, such vets and equipment are already in short supply. He cannot afford them anyway.

How would you advice Farmer Githinji? Should he quarantine his animals and likely lose them to starvation and pneumonia and worms? Shoulld he inject the vitamins and say a prayer, send them off to pasture while preparing a special place for the 15 sick animals that he can atleast try handle on the farm? Should he start looking for a loan and look for the special vet and equipment to handle the 5 cows that get very sick and of which he can only save 2?
