Coronavirus infection does not cause a cold with a dripping nose or catarrhal cough, but a dry and dry cough: this is the easiest thing to know.

The virus does not resist heat and dies if exposed to temperatures of 26-27 degrees: therefore often consume hot drinks such as tea, herbal tea and broth during the day, or simply hot water: hot liquids neutralize the virus and it is not difficult to drink them. Avoid drinking ice water or eating ice cubes or snow for those in the mountains (children)!

For those who can do it, expose yourself to the sun!

1. The virus crown is quite large (diameter about 400-500 nanometers), therefore any type of mask can stop it: in normal life, special masks are not needed.

On the other hand, the situation is different for doctors and health professionals who are exposed to heavy virus loads and have to use special equipment.

If an infected person sneezes in front of you, three meters away they will drop the virus on the ground and prevent it from landing on you.

2. When the virus is found on metal surfaces, it survives for about 12 hours. So when you touch metal surfaces such as handles, doors, appliances, supports on trams, etc., wash your hands well and disinfect them carefully.

3. The virus can live nested in clothes and fabrics for about 6/12 hours: normal detergents can kill it. For clothes that cannot be washed every day, if you can expose them to the sun and the virus will die.

How it manifests itself:
1. The virus first installs itself in the throat, causing inflammation and a dry throat sensation: this symptom can last for 3/4 days.
2. the virus travels through the humidity present in the airways, descends into the trachea and installs in the lung, causing pneumonia. This step takes about 5/6 days.
3. Pneumonia occurs with high fever and difficulty breathing, it is not accompanied by the classic cold. But you may have the feeling of drowning. In this case, contact your doctor immediately.

How can you avoid it:
1. Virus transmission occurs mostly by direct contact, touching tissues or materials on which the virus is present: washing hands frequently is essential.

The virus only survives on your hands for about ten minutes, but in ten minutes many things can happen: rub your eyes or scratch your nose for example, and allow the virus to enter your throat ...

So, for your own good and for the good of others, wash your hands very often and disinfect them!
2. You can gargle with a disinfectant solution that eliminates or minimizes the amount of virus that could enter your throat: in doing so, you eliminate it before it goes down into the trachea and then into the lungs.
3. disinfect the PC keyboard and mobile phones

The new coronavirus NCP * may not show signs of infection for many days, * before which it cannot be known if a person is infected. But by the time you have a fever and / or cough and go to the hospital, your lungs are usually already in 50% fibrosis and it's too late!

Taiwanese experts suggest doing a simple check that we can do on our own every morning:

Take a deep breath and hold your breath for more than 10 seconds. If you successfully complete it without coughing, without discomfort, a sense of oppression, etc., this shows that there is no fibrosis in the lungs, indicating essentially no infection.
In such critical times, do this check every morning in a clean air environment!

This is excellent advice from Japanese doctors who treat COVID-19 cases. Everyone should make sure that their mouth and throat are moist, never DRY. Drink a few sips of water at least every 15 minutes. WHY? Even if the virus gets into your mouth ... water or other liquids will sweep it away through the esophagus and into the stomach. Once in the belly ... Gastric acid in the stomach will kill all the virus. If you don't drink enough water more regularly ... the virus can get into your lungs.

That's too much for me to remember.

Telling my children not to eat any snow they find outside. I'll remember that.

Our governor has ordered no groups gathering 250 or over, so our church, as well as all in Michigan that meet that state standard cannot have services. Our pastor has opted for preaching Sunday morning Live stream... Bro. Young in Elk Grove, CA is doing the same...

In your opinion, should they defy the governors mandate?

As for neck hugging, last winter when we were not in this crisis but had a rash of flu and colds running through our church, I stopped hugging for that reason... my protection and theirs. It seemed sensible to me then and now.

And communion from one cup? Not ever! lol

How are you going to be unified without drinking from the same cup.

I have a HUGE problem with Michigan's executive order. First, it's unconstitutional and would be ruled as such if challenged in court. Gov Whitmer has a ban from Monday thru April 5th.

CA did the same thing for the remainder of the month.

At this point, were I a Pastor, I would keep the church open and services as scheduled. I would not close the doors.

I'd encourage the elderly and those who have pre-existing health issues to remain home and broadcast via FB or Youtube.

Religious community has a whole lot of grace in this country when it comes to what they want to do.

This is Rep. Trey Gowdy discussing that here.



As far as dealing with the public with their diseases, being in the streets evangelizing places me in some situations. Let's take the diseased riddled homeless, praying with them, hugging them, sharing my food with them, and being in too close proximity. Then there is all the sweaty shouting Pentecostalish things we do at church. We build p a sweat at times, and all the snot, tears (lots of flowing water pistol tears) Suits, pants not only filled with my sweat, tears, and snot, but everyone elses when they hug me. I remember a story about Saint Francis of Assisi meeting a leper, and how he dealt with it. Also Roman Catholic Don Bosco who dealt with lepers in Colombia. I said all that to say this, I can't avoid all the sneezing, coughing, puking, and touching things which may of previously been touched by sickly people.

Make sure you are responsible, by all means. But, as for me, I can't be dictated to by a government or population who is always focused on the sad story. Every day, every day we have to hear that we are going to take a beating. Thank you sir may I have another? No, I didn't come to the Apostolic One God Pentecostal church to face defeats, or constantly hear bad news, but to live in victory. If God be for us, who will be against us? Paul maps out all the bad things which were happening to him, but he sucked it up. Failure is where we shine, tribulation is our meat and potatoes. We aren't Buddhists who must learn and condition themselves to ascend suffering. We are past all that, we live in the victory of the shout, we are connected to the Champion who overcame the world. He told us to worry about nothing. We are the only hope this world has, and if we are running past them seeking shelter in the Porta John, snuggling up to a warm roll of toilet paper, then where is our light? I have come in contact with super sick people with highly contagious illnesses. They start crying and wanting to hold on to the person who just prayed with them and shared with them the Gospel. They might be weeping pus out of their open sores. But, friend of mine, you do have it race through your mind to not touch them. But while they are crying, or while they are passing from this life, you come in contact with them. Who knows what is out there, but we do know that there is One who will protect us while we are trying to do His work. Jesus knows all about it.

Re: Coronavirus contains HIV genes

Paul said many were weak and sick and many had died because they weren't doing the Lord's Supper properly, with the right attitude toward one another. I guess he didnt get the memo that sharing a cup of wine CAUSES sickness?

Maybe we've got all this backwards?
