Karu päivä Ruotsissa. Jotain tiukennuksiakin tekivät sitten, ainakin suositusten.
 
Some of the richest firms in the business world — private equity companies and venture capitalists — are lobbying for their piece of the coronavirus bailout.

Groups representing the firms are urging the Trump administration to let businesses that they own apply for $350 billion in small business loans that Congress unleashed last week.

The lobbying campaign is getting some traction — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says it's a critical issue for Silicon Valley startups — but it's running into fierce resistance from finance industry watchdogs, who warn it could be a giveaway to wealthy investors.

The Trump administration is encouraging regulators to allow a decades-old flu drug to be administered as a possible coronavirus treatment, despite career officials’ concerns about the risks and limited evidence that the drug would work as a coronavirus treatment, according to three officials with knowledge of the deliberations and internal documents reviewed by POLITICO.

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has championed the drug, Avigan, as a possible treatment, and clinical trials are now getting underway in Japan. Chinese scientists also have touted the drug, produced by Japan-based Fujifilm, as a potential coronavirus treatment, but global regulators and U.S. researchers have long expressed concern about the drug’s risks, such as birth defects, and have warned that the Chinese data is insufficient.

However, President Donald Trump has embraced a series of unproven drugs as possible coronavirus cures, saying that he has a hunch about anti-malaria drugs that the Food and Drug Administration rushed to authorize for emergency use this week despite scant evidence. Trump also has repeatedly discussed his efforts to encourage FDA approvals of drugs and devices this month, challenging FDA's long-held stance as an apolitical, science-driven agency.

Imagine New York City now, except with hundreds of thousands of federal workers tasked with running the nation’s response to coronavirus living there.

That's where government officials and health experts across the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area fear the region is heading. The pandemic has gone easier on the capital than some other major metro areas, but it is about to hit hard, they say.

And the scenario could have dangerous repercussions for the country, stifling the national response by federal employees on the front lines of fighting the virus.

“A major outbreak among our critical federal workforce could be catastrophic, crippling the national response,” warned Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, who with others expressed growing fears that the region could look like New York by Easter.

NHS staff are making improvised masks out of snorkels, buying kit from hardware stores and using school science goggles to protect themselves in anticipation of a rise in coronavirus cases, it has emerged.
Doctors and nurses said they were being forced to improvise as they worried about access to appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
A consultant anaesthetist working in south-east England reported buying 60 snorkels to adapt into respirator masks. “Various other places are doing the same,” the doctor told the Guardian. “One trust has ordered 500 and teamed up with companies who are (3D) printing the adapters.”
Samantha Batt-Rawden, the president of Doctors Association UK, said: “It is unacceptable that ongoing shortages in personal protective equipment (PPE) have led to this desperate situation. We have heard from numerous frontline NHS doctors who have been forced to improvise as they simply don’t have access to appropriate kit.
“Many doctors have told us they have also had to buy their own respirator masks from hardware stores, while others have reached out to schools and laboratories for protective glasses. Some have approached 3D printing companies to have batches of visors made. In the wake of the tragic death of three frontline NHS doctors, it is now vital the government act to protect the frontline.”
PPE used by doctors treating contagious patients includes visors, gowns, gloves and masks with varying levels of protection. The most sought-after is a FFP3 mask, with the highest safety levels, but they are in short supply globally.

The anaesthetist said that while his department had not yet run out of equipment, they were devising improvised models in anticipation of a rise in patients. He said there was no official guidance for the use of snorkels but Italian doctors had shown it was possible.

“The snorkel masks have been adapted for use as non-invasive ventilators by Italian anaesthetists. They published their design including 3D-printed adapters to connect oxygen tubing to the snorkel breathing tube,” he said.

“This adapted connection can alternatively be used to attach a heat moisture exchanging (HME) filter used worldwide to protect tubing and ventilators from patients’ exhaled gases. These HMEs are in plentiful supply. You now have PPE combining a full-face visor with filtered air, cleanable, reusable and resource-efficient.”

At one practice in Devon, a patient has been using a 3D printer to make masks for doctors. “We have not been issued with sufficient kit, so a patient has been making it. That should not be the case,” the practice manager said.

“He just prints using a 3D printer. He has taken it up a scale and is now providing a number of hospitals. It is a full-face visor on a plastic headband and it goes around the head, protecting the whole front of the face,” the manager said.

Another doctor said something similar was happening at their trust as 3D printing partners worked to help adapt snorkels. “I think our hospital has plenty of PPE. We have just been tinkering as a proof of concept in the scenario we run out,” they said.

Elsewhere, doctors have raised concerns about ill-fitting masks. One said: “We have only this week started being fit-tested for FFP3 masks. This is supposed to be a requirement. Usually only one type will actually fit. This means there’s been around two to three weeks minimum that staff have been dealing with possible Covid-19 patients without fitting masks because we weren’t fit-tested.

“Today I was informed by one of our healthcare staff that we have around 60-70 masks left. That’s it. When I asked a senior what happened after that, they couldn’t tell me. I don’t blame them. They’re doing the best they can just like the rest of us. We are all risking our lives because our government covered up reports that said we were woefully underprepared for a pandemic years ago. We are using eye protection now that’s been donated by schools and DIY shops. That’s pathetic.”

The Guardian has previously reported that schools across England were being asked to donate science goggles to the NHS.

Meanwhile, the public is being urged to stop panic-buying breathing aids during the outbreak. Intus Healthcare, which specialises in sleep disorders and sells continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines to help with breathing, said there had been a huge increase in people trying to buy its products.

“Unfortunately, a lot of people are buying them out of panic rather than medical necessity, due to the news about ventilator shortages. We are being overwhelmed by these additional orders and are finding it difficult to help those with genuine medical conditions,” said Tim Barker, of Intus Healthcare.

He added: “It is vital that people understand that CPAP machines, ventilators, are medical devices and cannot be supplied unless authorised by a medical professional. They should not be being purchased ‘just in case’ without any formal diagnosis of a relevant medical condition. The orders cannot be fulfilled and they delay other, valid orders.”

An NHS spokesperson said: “The Department of Health and Social Care
has secured millions more items of personal protective equipment for
us, which the army is helping get to frontline staff across the NHS
with every hospital and ambulance trust, family doctors and community
pharmacy having received a delivery.

“The personal protective equipment sent out to NHS staff is certified
by HSE as safe and appropriate.”

 
Ruotsissa voi tulla myös vallan uusjakoa, kun kaikki korona-vainajat on haudattu.
Ja uusia ruotsalaisia voidaan taas vastaanottaa. Vanhainkodeista tulee pienillä muutostöillä vokkeja. Isot telkkarit, rukoustilat, biljardipöydät jne.. Ja tottakai yksityistiloja jos sikäläiset siiderivalaat pääsevät vierailulle.
 
Onkos korona rauhoittanut ruotsin lähiöt, kun ei pariin viikkoon ole näkynyt ammuskelu tai käsikranaatti uutisointia?
Ei ole rauhoittunut. Uutiskynnys vain ei ole joka puolella ylittynyt.

Scientists in Australia have begun testing two potential coronavirus vaccines in "milestone" lab trials.

The vaccines, made by Oxford University and US company Inovio Pharmaceutical, have been cleared for animal testing by the World Health Organization.

Australia's national science agency will assess if the vaccines work, and if they would be safe for humans.

The first human trial took place in the US last month, but skipped a stage of animal testing.

There are several other vaccine developments occurring around the world at the moment at extraordinary speed.

Shenzhen has become the first Chinese city to ban the sale and consumption of dog and cat meat.

It comes after the coronavirus outbreak was linked to wildlife meat, prompting Chinese authorities to ban the trade and consumption of wild animals.

The top doctor at Rikers Island said the coronavirus-hit New York jail is a “public health disaster unfolding before our eyes” as he warned of the rapidly rising number of infections in the city’s jails.

In just 12 days, Ross MacDonald, the jail’s chief physician, said confirmed cases at Rikers had soared from one to nearly 200.
