Washington Death Trip
(By *American Zen*'s Mike Flannigan, on loan from Ari.) “*We’ve got to reopen, and when we do, the coronavirus is gonna spread faster*.”- Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) “LIBERATE VIRGINIA, and save your great 2nd Amendment. It is under siege!”- "President" Donald Trump *A*t times, it alternately seems when one watches a zombie movie or TV show that the writers and directors are either warning us about trends and destinies to which we seem hellbound or the manifestation to just, to paraphrase President Barack Obama, "accelerate the endgame."

Are Elected County Sheriffs America’s Last Hope to Fight Medical Tyranny? Some Sheriffs Refusing to Enforce Stay at Home Orders, Siding with Constitutional Rights
Every county in the U.S. elects a sheriff to oversee law enforcement within that county. As elected officials, County Sheriffs take an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America, and protect the constitutional rights of their constituents, even if it means standing up to Federal agents and others who would seek to violate the rights of their constituents within their counties. Most all other law enforcement departments and administrators in the U.S. are appointed, not elected. The County Sheriff is the exception. One of the largest Constitutional Sheriffs assoc... more »

Why It's so Difficult to Predict the Next Virus, Ebola or Flu Outbreak
*C. Brandon Ogbunu, Randall Harp, Samuel V. Scarpino* *Public Health, World* [image: Reuters] There are limits to what scientists can do to predict the next viral outbreak. A two-year-old boy in rural Guinea died of Ebola in December 2014. Over the next two years, almost 30,000 people in West Africa would be infected with the Ebola virus. Why, unlike the previous 17 Ebola outbreaks, did this one grow so large, so quickly? What, if anything, can be done to prevent future outbreaks?

How We Are Still Searching for an Effective Flu Vaccine
*Ian Setliff, Amyn Murji* *Public Health, World* [image: Reuters] Producing an effective annual flu shot relies on accurately predicting which flu strains are most likely to infect the population in any given season.

China Claims Its New 'Meter Wave Radar' Is The Perfect Counter To Stealth Aircraft

The F-35 has been used in minor conflicts like Syria, operating against second-string or non-existent air defenses. But stealth – or anti-stealth – will only be proven in a conflict between powers that possess advanced aircraft, radars and anti-aircraft missiles. In addition, it also functions as a fire control radar that can guide missiles toward s... more »

On Tuesday, March 17, 1970, Charles Woodruff Yost, America’s ambassador to the United Nations, entered the international body’s headquarters building on the far east side of Midtown Manhattan.

Editor's Note
Travelling back to Montreal today to check up on the house, pick up the mail, etc.. Blogging will return later today. *Update 18:45 EST:* After spending almost a month in the woods, it was surreal to leave the chalet and drive back into Montreal (it's a two hour drive). First thing I noticed was that gas is cheap (a third off from the usual price), and with the exception of a lot of police cars, there was little if any traffic on the highway. When I got to the suburb where I live, I saw a lot of line-ups in front of the supermarkets and pharmacies. Physical distancing is clearly enf... more »

Letter From Berlin: The Moment Has Come For A Global Ceasefire
Against the backdrop of the widening corona pandemic, we support the efforts of the United Nations Secretary-General to reach a global ceasefire. An idea that is now supported by at least 70 countries. At the same time, we agree with the demands of numerous governments and organizations for the end of the sanctions policy, which now affects almost a third of humanity. Venezuela, Cuba, Syria, Nicaragua, Iran, Palestine, Yemen, North Korea and Zimbabwe were already severely affected by the sanctions before the pandemic, and the situation has now deteriorated even further. But other ... more »

How China Broke The Chain Of Infection
On March 31, 2020, a group of scientists from around the world—from Oxford University to Beijing Normal University—published an important paper in Science. This paper—“An Investigation of Transmission Control Measures During the First 50 Days of the COVID-19 Epidemic in China”—proposes that if the Chinese government had not initiated the lockdown of Wuhan and the national emergency response, then there would have been 744,000 additional confirmed COVID-19 cases outside Wuhan. “Control measures taken in China,” the authors argue, “potentially hold lesso[n]s for other countries aroun... more »
What Does U.N. Secretary General’s Call For Ceasefire Mean For Countries In Conflict?
United Nations (March 25, 2020) - Conflict experts are concerned the global ceasefire called for by the United Nations amid the coronavirus outbreak may not work and could lead to a rise in violence.

UK Moves To Drop Huawei As 5G Vendor
*NYPost:* *UK moves to drop Huawei as 5G vendor, citing China coronavirus transparency * The UK is moving to drop Huawei as a vendor for the country’s 5G cellphone network in a major blow to Communist China over poor coronavirus transparency. Prime Minister Boris Johnson, now recovering from COVID-19, gave the Chinese company a role in 5G infrastructure this year, squashing opposition last month by 24 votes in the 650-seat House of Commons. But now, concern about the Chinese Communist Party’s inaccurate reporting on the coronavirus has lawmakers crafting plans for a retreat. *Rea... more »

SVT visar Bortom det synliga – filmen om Hilma af Klint. Kan ses på SVT play i ännu ett halvår. Å ena sidan, väldigt vackra bilder. Mycket konst. Vackert filmat. Å andra sidan, det evinnerliga tjatet om kvinnliga konstnärers ofördelaktiga villkor och om hur Hilma af Klint minsann var först, som abstrakt konstnär, men aldrig … Continue reading 2020.04.18: Hilma igen →
BWorld 429, Treatment innovation vs. politics of envy
* My article in BusinessWorld, April 16, 2020. In an address to the nation last Monday, April 13, about government policies to fight the China virus, a.k.a. SARS-COV2 which causes COVID-19, President Rodrigo R. Duterte said that a new treatment, an “antibody” has been developed by a giant pharmaceutical company. Problem is that “we are on the last ladder. Ang mauna niyan ‘yung mga mayayaman” (the first to benefit are the rich). We take this statement by the President to make the following arguments. One, there are many new treatments and new vaccines being developed by many compan... more »
