People will curse God even sky is falling on them. Their hearts are so hardened, they will antagonize Him even while He is destroying them.

Good Point, Aerials,
right out of REV...
11:18.
And the nations were 'angry', and Thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged,
and that Thou should give reward unto Thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear Thy Name,
small and great; and should destroy them which destroy the earth.

sadly, typical-human-nature...

Seems more people are coming around to the fact that this virus is serious and dangerous. Hopefully people won't joke around about it and mock it and take actual precaution, looking at you Rudy Gobert. Also no matter what the conservatives say, they will get mocked, the dems can do and say the exact same yet get praised. Damned if you do, damned if you don't/

Before long folks will be discussing which "seal" from Revelation the coronavirus comes from, right?

to quote above post:
"Just like to mention that this virus is spreading round the world not just in the US. We have it here in the UK as well.
The virus doesn't check your political or religious convictions before it kills you"


The Word of God spreads around the world as well.
The Word of God doesn't check political or religious convictions either.
The Word of God SAYS:

2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

My first comment was not in jest, if that's what folks thought it was. Nor is it conspiracy theory, it's a question about the 7 Seals...……...just saying.

One thing I thought of is that, thus far, the coronavirus is not on a level with the Black Plague. However, if 1/3 of the worlds population ends up being lost from this virus, does it then rise to the level of Revelations?

most of the people are having mild symptoms around 80% some no symptoms at all, so that says the human body is can deal with virus all on its own, so the virus could become something that over time the human immune system combats, it's already combating the virus already in 80% of the people.

if it was a virus that didn't kill people I think the world would be reacting differently but since it's so new and spreads fast creates panic.

for those that live in America we deal with 40,000 gun related deaths so virus or not or if you agree with gun control or not, walking in the streets of America in some places can be far more dangerous than a virus.

I can imagine some people who are not accustom to nightly gun fire and death in the streets might be alittle panic visiting such a place. I can only imagine what other countries that have massive amounts of just pure gun deaths what they go through Brazil seems to be at the top of the list as well like America they probably know also.

When I hear a shoot out a block from my house that kind of brings me back to reality.

so as the word ponders the virus I ponder if the cars that shot at each other will come back done my street and I catch a stray bullet while sleeping that happens quite often in America.

Hmm Alaska was fourth largest murder rate in 2015, I've always thought of Alaska as a peaceful wilderness type of living I guess not.

This virus currently has an overall 3% kill ratio. Serious Yes. But world ending No. This ratio also Varies around the world depending on the capabilities of each nations health system.. The Iranian government and health system for instance has been very incompetent in dealing with this pandemic while Japan seems to be one of the better performers..

With finding that Plaquenil or Hydroxychloroquine helps kill the virus, and Trump allowing it to be used off label, I think this disease will soon be under control.

Plaquenil is over 50 years old. It started as an anti-malarial, now it is mostly used for Rheumatoid Arthritis, as the first med you go on. I was on it for a year. I had no side effects, but it didn't work, my RA was already too strong for it.

I have heard they are ramping up production of the med, plus, it is cheap to make. I'm not worried about supply, I have a stash of it, enough for hubby and I to be on it for 10 days.

All the side effects of Plaquenil are well known. The only issue is making it quickly, and getting it to the worst patients, first, and then to anyone who has been exposed.

Of course, I do believe this discovery is because of God answering his people's prayers!

Thank you Angela53510 for posting this and your research and experience. This is calling us all to believe in God's healing, with or without medical help. We should never turn away medical help that has proven to help with healing. I think divine healing is given in baby steps sometimes. And if a tylenol or other medical aid can help, there is lesser reason to pray for divine intervention. From my life's experience, divine help is not given like fast-food - we have to learn from the experience and see how suffering leads us closer to the Lord, and learn to rely on a closer relationship with Jesus, and the free gift of salvation, calling us to live Christian lives. And how to humbly seek God's help without a spirit of entitlement.

If yoy belong to the group of over 65 ore the group of having any deseases which weaken your immunsystem it is dangerous for you. Almost 80 percent of the population will not get serious sick, ore even recognize that they got the virus. The thing is to protect the other 20%. To have no social contact, meetings is the best way to this.
This has nothing to do with the seals in revealation. But it will change a lot in our future society.

My wife has been on Plaquenil for her RA for about three years. Her rheumatologist requires he to get an eye exam every year. He has been in practice for thirty years, and has only seen one case with side effects.

It is my understanding that Cloroquine Phosphate is normally used as a preventive for malaria. It is my understanding that malaria is caused by a parasite. Early results of its use in treatment of Covid-19 are promising. I would like to know how Covid-19 resembles malaria. Maybe someone here has some info.

Malaria is a parasite, SARS CoV-2 is a virus.

It drug interferes with its ability of the virus to replicate, this learned this from the first SARS breakout.

This drug was used on 25 people and was effective on 75, that is a very small sample size ... so no a lot of real data yet on this drug, so cautious optimism still.
