    EXCLUSIVE: Top pulmonary doctor warns that thousands of Americans who survived COVID-19 but suffered lung damage are a ticking time bomb with a morbidity rate far worse than cancer
    • Dr. Sassan Rafi says that COVID-19 patients diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis after weeks on a ventilator face a shocking morbidity rate
    • Pulmonary fibrosis is a lung disease that occurs when lung tissue is damaged and scarred and is caused by aggressive viruses like COVID-19
    • Dr. Rafi has been studying lung disease for 15 years and says thousands of Americans hospitalized are at risk even after they recover from coronavirus
    • This comes as coronavirus infections across the US have been surging after trending down for over six weeks
    • Dr. Rafi believes his company is close to developing a drug which will stop pulmonary fibrosis in its tracks - even reversing the damage
    • 'It's not just about who is dying acutely from the virus, it's about what's going to come years and years from now, once the virus has gone,' Dr. Rafi said

    The WHO may take the bold stance, due to emerging evidence, that coronavirus MAY spread....through the air.

    BREAKING NEWS: White House tells Congress it is formally withdrawing from the World Health Organization - to fury from Democrats who say the move 'leaves Americans sick' and alone
    • The White House provided formal notification to Congress
    • Trump announced the move amid the pandemic
    • He blasted the WHO for failing to contain the virus and accused it of catering to China and concealing information
    • The nation is on the cusp of 3 million infections and is a leading global hotspot
    • Sen. Robert Menendez blasted the move as part of 'chaotic & incoherent' response
    • The U.S. is the top voluntary contributor to the group

    So this is not a new rule. This is just enforcing an existing regulation. Students with F-1 visa classification (student visa) can only count 3 credits of online classes towards their minimum full time requirement. It has been this way for years. It's a shame an update/exception to this rule isn't being made to accommodate for the pandemic. I have luggage and vehicles of multiple International Students stored at my home for the Summer...I want them to be able to come back..haha.

    Just thinking out loud, what is the driving force behind not making an update or exception to the rule? Is it to force International Students out of the country or is it to turn the tables and put the onus on the universities to open up and have in person classes? There is a lot of potential spin with this.

    Benedict Donald and the Trumpencucks continue in their path of destruction.

    If this is not the marketing department of the Sirius Cybernetics corporation - I do not know what is.

    this is all about that fucker trump trying to deflect blame. Calling it the China Flu or Wuhan Flu hasn't worked. Maybe he can pin it on those evil 'fureigners' from shithole countires in the WHO

    trump has inflicted 70 years of damage on the US in less than 4
