FEDERAL JUDGE HALTS SALE OF INDUSTRIAL BLEACH AS COVID-19 CURE FROM SOUTH FLORIDA CHURCH
Source: Newsweek
A federal judge in Miami issued an order on Friday blocking the sale of an apparent hoax-cure for COVID-19, which the Justice Department says was actually industrial-strength bleach.
Several Southwest Florida residents, through a self-proclaimed religious entity, had been marketing a "Master Mineral Solution" (MMS) on their affiliated websites, stating fanciful claims about its potential applications.
The Genesis II Church of Health & Healing provided that MMS could alleviate COVID-19 through "sacramental dosing." It instructed adults to take six drops of "activated MMS" in a glass of water ever two hours.
"This should wipe it out this flu-like virus that many are being scared with its presence in this world," one of the church's websites said.

The Secret to Germany's COVID-19 Success: Angela Merkel Is a Scientist
Born in West Germany in 1954, Merkel was raised in a small East German town to the north of Berlin. Her father was a Lutheran pastor and a target of surveillance by East Germany’s security service, the Stasi. A brilliant student, Merkel learned early on “not to put herself in the center of things” lest she expose herself or her family to undue scrutiny, according to Stefan Kornelius, her official biographer and the foreign editor of the Süddeutsche Zeitung newspaper. When the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, Merkel, who had by then earned a doctorate in quantum chemistry, was working as a research scientist. Soon after, she left her job to join a new political group that had formed in her neighborhood, thus quietly launching her political career. She rose in German politics and, through sheer smarts and a series of well-timed tactical maneuvers, ascended in 2005 to the chancellery, the head of Germany’s federal government. Her trajectory was dramatic and uncommon—for a woman, for an East German, and for a trained scientist with no background in law or civil service.

Florida nears 20,000 coronavirus cases, including more in Tampa Bay

Pinellas County now has 456 cases and 14 deaths. Pasco County has 160 cases and three deaths. Hillsborough has 759 cases and 17 deaths, including one marked “non-FL resident." Statewide, there are 19,918 COVID-19 cases and 474 people have died of the virus.
About 11 percent of the more than 183,000 coronavirus tests in the state have come back positive. The number of pending tests doesn’t account for those coming from private labs, which make up 90 percent of coronavirus testing.
The state’s death count also excludes non-Florida residents, like snowbirds and visitors. Adding in those positive cases could raise the death toll.

Coronavirus has people calling the police and shaming neighbors on social media
Source: Tampa Bay Times
Hillsborough County deputies arrived at the house in the Lake Magdalene area Friday night to find a crowd of 15 gathered around the wrestling ring in the front yard. Some were wearing costumes.
The deputies explained Florida’s stay-at-home order and the crowd dispersed, apparently before the main event.
People made hundreds of calls to law enforcement agencies across Tampa Bay over the past two weeks to complain about neighbors not following stay-at-home orders, at least as they saw it.
Often the officers arrived to find nothing enforceable going on. Sometimes the offenders had already left, and sometimes there was no offense to begin with. Other times they found clear violations, explained the issue, and people listened. Very few got more than a warning.

This has been an issue in Clearwater. One of our neighbors had a pool party and got flamed on the neighborhood watch. It started a debate with the TP45 nuts.
In Floriduh, nothing is enforced (yet), so I wonder how long it will be before there is gun play.

Fifteen years ago, Florida braced for a pandemic.
Officials knew as early as 2005 that an outbreak could devastate the state and infect much of the population. They wrote reports predicting a crisis remarkably similar to the one playing out now: a virus that could infect more than a million Florida residents.
And they responded in force, bolstering the state health department with resources and specialized workers to combat a potential crisis.
But that operation was dismantled by governors and lawmakers more worried about the bottom line, the Tampa Bay Times has found. They slashed research funding, cut thousands of jobs and ignored gaps in the state’s defense against fast-spreading diseases.

Coronavirus: Potential vaccine generates enough antibodies to fight off virus, first peer-reviewed s
Source: Independent
A potential coronavirus vaccine developed by US scientists has been found to produce antibodies capable of fighting off Covid-19 in the first peer-reviewed study of its kind.
The vaccine, which was tested on mice by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, generated the antibodies in quantities thought to be enough to “neutralise” the virus within two week of injection.
The study’s authors are now to apply to the US Food and Drug Administration for investigational new drug approval ahead of phase one human clinical trials planned to start in the next few months.
The first human trial of a vaccine began at a lab in Seattle last month after a team of US researchers skipped animal testing, which is used to establish effectiveness and safety.
