@Lady_FanAccount Check out "Bluest Blues" by Alvin Lee, on which George likewise plays a slide guitar solo. (Alvin kind of ruins the song by playing too long—but George's work is astounding!)
@kkaymccc@Manifest_Lord It's kind of an old-fangled term, but it's definitely legit. Basically it just means foods that come from the bean family. Don't trip off the word choice! Heed the message.
@markkaplan20 The APOE e4 variant is correlated with Alzheimer's (the e3/e4 arrangement puts you at about 4X baseline risk; e4/e4 results in 12X risk). I've not heard (until your series of posts) of an APOE connection to cardiac problems!?
@Sir__Jorge A is still alive because (according to Mark Twain) dead men float face-down; C is still alive bc he's exerting muscular energy to hold onto his book underwater (a wild choice, but there you go). Therefore B is dead—could be that's blood seeping out from underneath his corpse
The virus is called "covert mortality nodavirus" because it kills shrimp without any visible symptoms. The shrimp look fine. Then they're dead. It earned that name in aquaculture farms where entire populations would collapse overnight with zero external warning signs.
Now it's doing something similar in human eyes.
CMNV targets the anterior uveal tract, the middle layer of the eye. It triggers inflammation and sends intraocular pressure through the roof, mimicking glaucoma. Standard antivirals don't work because nobody was testing for an aquatic nodavirus in human eye tissue. Every patient in the study tested negative for herpes, shingles, and every other known ocular virus. Doctors were diagnosing it as idiopathic for years.
The research team in China sequenced fluid directly from patients' eyes and found a 98.96% genetic match to the CMNV strains circulating in farmed shrimp. 70 out of 70 patients tested positive for CMNV antibodies. They infected mice with it and got the same eye symptoms.
71.4% of cases traced back to handling or eating raw seafood. But some cases had no clear seafood exposure at all, which raises the question nobody wants to ask about human-to-human transmission.
The part that should concern everyone outside China: CMNV has been detected in 49 aquatic species across waters in the Americas, Europe, and Asia. The virus is already global. The diagnosis isn't.
@BarDuW60@PaulGoldEagle As other posters have mentioned, the Red Cross will happily tell you your blood type—for the price of a pint of your blood. Plus they'll give you highly processed snacks and a bottle of water 👍🏻
my theory about why the Beatles broke up is that a bands can only stay together when every member is taking the same drugs. but Paul had weed, John had heroin, George had coke, and Ringo had booze. that's not sustainable
@Man_to_manX On YouTube, T. C. Hale says that even though magnesium can have a relaxing effect, it's fundamentally catabolic in its action and should be taken early in the daytime and not before bed. Why should we believe you and not him?
FDA warns consumers about oysters and clams which could be contaminated with norovirus and were sent to nine states, including California, Florida and New York.
