You can see how many cases are in each state in the U.S. You can see how many cases are in each country. You can see how many people have been affected and have recovered. You can compare healthcare systems response, failures and gains.
Soon to come. . . It will track vaccine sucesses. Many countries are implementing vaccine trials currently.

ACE2 is needed to make ***anti-inflammatory Ang (1-7)***….
It is in a probiotic supplement called Probiotic 12 available on Amazon.
COVID-19 has been found in stools.
COVID-19 also binds to other proteins on our cells.
"Flux of the paramyxovirus ***hemagglutinin-neuraminidase glycoprotein*** through the endoplasmic reticulum
activates transcription of the GRP78-BiP gene. (Glucose regulatory protein)"
"COVID-19 spike by the cell-surface GRP78
upon cell stress." (ER stress is down regulated via TUDCA).
TUDCA abolished TG-induced markers of ER stress;*** reduced***calcium efflux, ***induction of Bip/GRP78***, and caspase-12 activation; and subsequently inhibited activation of effector caspases and apoptosis.
TUDCA is a taurine conjugated bile salt.
We make less bile salts as we age. Likely age link to protection from that virus.
I'm on 500mg of TUDCA for asthma.
TUDCA also looks to mimic metarhodopsin II -> transducin alpha
light activtated hodopsin....

Sorry, but again, conspiracy theories are never helpful. Don't believe all the stuff meant to scare you that you read on the internet.
Some of you don't trust the CDC, but this is a good account about how the virus got to us.
Source and Spread of the Virus Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that are common in people and many different species of animals, including camels, cattle, cats, and bats.
Rarely, animal coronaviruses can infect people and then spread between people such as with MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV, and now with this new virus (named SARS-CoV-2).
The SARS-CoV-2 virus is a betacoronavirus, like MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV.
All three of these viruses have their origins in bats. The sequences from U.S. patients are similar to the one that China initially posted, suggesting a likely single, recent emergence of this virus from an animal reservoir.
Early on, many of the patients at the epicenter of the outbreak in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China had some link to a large seafood and live animal market, suggesting animal-to-person spread.
Later, a growing number of patients reportedly did not have exposure to animal markets, indicating person-to-person spread.
Person-to-person spread was subsequently reported outside Hubei and in countries outside China, including in the United States.
Some international destinations now have ongoing community spread with the virus that causes COVID-19, as do some parts of the United States.
Community spread means some people have been infected and it is not known how or where they became exposed. Learn what is known about the spread of this newly emerged coronaviruses.

Which medications are they recommending for surviving the "cytokine storm"?
And note this which will take months or years:
"While randomized trials will be needed to confirm which, if any, of these therapeutics will effectively treat Covid-19-infected patients with cytokine storm syndrome.....,"
" We already have medicines for treating cytokine storm syndrome triggered by viruses With the development of biologic therapies for a variety of rheumatic, oncologic, and other conditions, novel approaches to treating the immune response are now available.
These highly targeted medicines go after one or a few inflammatory molecules, including cytokines, without the general immune suppression effected by corticosteroids and other relatively non-selective immune suppressants.
Recently, a number of specific anti-cytokine approaches have proven effective in treating a variety of cytokine storm syndromes, including those triggered by viruses.
These include drugs targeting interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-6, IL-18, and interferon-gamma.
While randomized trials will be needed to confirm which, if any, of these therapeutics will effectively treat Covid-19-infected patients with cytokine storm syndrome, IL-6 blockade has recently been reported to be in use in China with successful outcomes in some individuals receiving this as part of their treatment.
While working to prevent future outbreaks of deadly coronavirus infections with vaccine development and discovering new or re-purposed anti-viral medicines to treat the virus,
we must also use all the knowledge at our disposal to treat those patients most at risk of dying – including from Covid-19-induced cytokine storms.
For this to occur, the medical community must first be aware of the possibility, then make the diagnosis, and finally treat infected individuals with overly active immune responses that are harmful, if not fatal, left untreated.
This should help save the lives of those unfortunate individuals at risk of Covid-19 induced cytokine storm syndrome. How to survive a cytokine storm."

PS .. It doesn't matter to me where it came from. It doesn't make me any more afraid one way or the other.
Hang in there, everyone!!

Dr. K. video posted on Medical forum of this site has him stating he believes it was made in a lab, but not with the purpose of killing people. There are other reasons people make bugs in labs, for example to support the delivery of medical treatments.
I will likely trust him over the CDC on any medical topic where they both have expressed an opinion.

I think it's from a lab also, but have you seen their open live animal markets? WHOA!!

Again,(no matter what Dr. K. says), the corona virus is carried by bats, passes to other wild animals, some of which are sold in markets - not only in China, but in other countries - where people handle the infected animals and get the virus.
The scary part is that it has to change or mutate to be able to pass from animal to human. That new strain is what is infecting the world.

In 2017, Biosafety scientists and experts WARNED that a SARS-like virus could escape from Wuhan, China.
A report from the Beijing sponsored South China University of Technology concluded " the killer virus probably originated from a laboratory, the Wuhan Institute of Virology."

What you say above can be true. What Dr. K. and others say about it being made in a lab can be true. They both can be true.

Avi, the 17 year old who created this genius public resource site has reported his website has been shut down numerous times but he is able to get it back up and running. It is currently down so I found another resource center for Covid-19 totals. Of course it is no where as good as Avi's.

Every one who dies now has the virus,even if it is from a accident. Cold viruses are covid viruses so get ran over by a train,test positive for once having a cold and walla you died of covid 19.
What the crap? MADDOG

This sounds like some very unreliable news. There are procedures and regulations to be followed when someone dies accidentally, the time of death, cause of death etc. is done by a coroner when needed. Corpses can be tested for many many things, including COVID-19 and those results are listed. So many legal matters are involved, it would be very risky to toss ever accident off as corona virus.
"Should “COVID-19” be reported on the death certificate only with a confirmed test? COVID-19 should be reported on the death certificate for all decedents where the disease caused or is assumed to have caused or contributed to death. Certifiers should include as much detail as possible based on their knowledge of the case, medical records, laboratory testing, etc. If the decedent had other chronic conditions such as COPD or asthma that may have also contributed, these conditions can be reported in Part II. (See attached Guidance for Certifying COVID-19 Deaths)"

Wow, I can't believe a 17-year old boy was able to put together all of this data! That is quite impressive!
Ann-Ohio, thank you for stressing the importance of wearing a mask, washing hands, distancing and doing everything we can to prevent further spread. I agree 100%.
This is a life changing disease on top of one we already know too well. We have to take it very seriously.

Update:
CDC lifts mask mandates for vaccinated people. Only you can decide what’s best for your safety.
Stay current and educated on world-wide infection rates. India currently suffering catastrophic infections. Japan in 4th wave, calling for cancelation of Olympic Games.
