Dr Shiva - inventor of the internet (by his own description).
Also a Doctor of Philosophy, and has no medical qualifications. No doubt he is a very smart guy, but he has no place in discussions about the coronavirus epidemic.
Not to put too fine a point on it, he is full of -----.

Re: Covid-19 no more lethal than FLU
Ayyadurai's undergraduate degree from MIT was in electrical engineering and computer science; he took a master's degree in visual studies from the MIT Media Laboratory on scientific visualization; concurrently, he completed another master's degree in mechanical engineering, also from MIT; and in 2007, he obtained a Ph.D. in biological engineering from MIT in systems biology, with his thesis focusing on modeling the whole cell by integrating molecular pathway models.[17][18][19] In 2007, he was awarded a Fulbright U.S. Student Program grant to study the integration of Siddha, a system of traditional medicine developed in South India, with modern systems biology.[20][17]

I know this doesn’t fit your narrative but here’s a genuine report from a nurse in a UK hospital, I’m afraid I’d rather trust this woman than a prat dressed up as the Joker or you fatbob.

A triage nurse against the absolute crap you’re posting? Yep, every time.

Where did I claim to be so knowledgable, coxo?
However, I will claim to having a reasonably well tuned bullshiit detector ......... and it has been off the scale tonight.

What part of the nurses conversation did you disagree with? That is what I'm interested in.

Re: Covid-19 no more lethal than FLU
Fatbob, your post is ludicrous, please give it up, how many genuine accounts from UK nurses do you want? Just type “uk nurse Covid” into Google, I’m afraid your idiotic clown faced, crap talking narrator doesn’t cut it, at all, nor does your scramble voiced “nurse”.

Re: Covid-19 no more lethal than FLU
A little piece of information, which makes for some interesting thoughts regarding FLU
The common flu virus will infect millions across the globe. It can be easily spread and will especially strike the young and the elderly. But this is not what has been described as the Wuhan virus. The common flu is far deadlier. This is not to downplay the Wuhan coronavirus flu, or to give it its medical name, 2019-nCoV.
The common flu causes up to 5 million cases of severe illness worldwide and kills up to 650,000 people every year, according to the World Health Organization .
So in effect the Covid 19 is NOT more lethal than the flu, however how it kills and the ease of transmission IS the worrying factor , plus many of us have developed what is commonly called the Herd Immunity factor , which mean many will have the FLU but not badly, just anything from sniffles to full blown flu.
It is not yet known HOW this Virus will act , whether we acquire a Herd Immunity like we have with the Common Flu or whether it will act the same way each and every time and general immunity from the severe form is never going to happen.
The scary part is when if infected you are breathing normally then suddenly ( in medical terminology ) you lose the ability to breath normally and consequently you are unable to provide enough oxygen to your body and with that comes the realisation that your body is failing . The common Flu is not like that luckily .

Re: Covid-19 no more lethal than FLU
Yes Bob,
A few on this site think they are the smartest people in the world.
Funny how their only contribution to the current world problem is to post on this website.
I would like to see a list of their qualifications that compare to Ayyadurai's.
But we know that won't happen.
We will only get their usual snide remarks, trying to make us think the're smart.
But we know better.
Mick

Re: Covid-19 no more lethal than FLU
Mick, if someone offers up evidence from a man dressed up a a cartoon figure from Batman what do they expect? You don’t need qualifications to counter an argument about how serious this Covid virus is, all you have to do is go onto Google and see the first hand accounts of whats happening in real life from triage nurses and doctors, I value their opinion far, far more that fatbob or his clownfaced cartoon characters.

Another account from a front line nurse. This isn’t just ordinary flu.

That happens in every hospital, every day, all over the world, for more problems than corona virus.
