1. Dr. Jack Wolfson: Guidance from China about Avoiding Corona

Charset:
Forwarding this on:
sharing a clip from a health oriented doctor, Jack Wolfson.
Last evening dining out with friends, one of their uncles, who's graduated with a master's degree and who worked in Shenzhen Hospital (Guangdong Province, China) sent him the following notes on Coronavirus for guidance:
1. If you have a runny nose and sputum, you have a common cold
2. Coronavirus pneumonia is a dry cough with no runny nose.
3. This new virus is not heat-resistant and will be killed by a temperature of just 26/27 degrees. It hates the Sun.
4. If someone sneezes with it, it takes about 10 feet before it drops to the ground and is no longer airborne.
5. If it drops on a metal surface it will live for at least 12 hours - so if you come into contact with any metal surface - wash your hands as soon as you can with a bacterial soap.
6. On fabric it can survive for 6-12 hours. normal laundry detergent will kill it.
7. Drinking warm water is effective for all viruses. Try not to drink liquids with ice.
8. Wash your hands frequently as the virus can only live on your hands for 5-10 minutes, but - a lot can happen during that time - you can rub your eyes, pick your nose unwittingly and so on.
9. You should also gargle as a prevention. A simple solution of salt in warm water will suffice.
10. Can't emphasise enough - drink plenty of water

2. Alex Zephyr: In Suspicion of China about Corona
something seems "rather fishy ! "..........
This is definitely something to think about.
Wuhan to Shanghai = 839 km
Wuhan to Beijing = 1,152km
Wuhan to Milan = 15,000km
Wuhan to NY = 15,000km
The Coronavirus started in Wuhan yet there is no effect of Coronavirus
in nearby Beijing or Shanghai but many deaths in Italy, Iran, European
countries and USA.
All business areas of China are now safe.
America is not just blaming China without a reason.
Even today, India is locked down but all the cities of China are open.
China has also announced the opening of Wuhan from April 08. Not a
single leader in China has tested positive for the deadly Coronavirus.
The virus has ruined many economies around the world. Many have had to
close their borders in an attempt to contain and control the spread of
the Coronavirus. Thousands have lost their lives, millions have now
got this disease, countless people have been locked in their homes and
many countries have placed their citizens on lock down.
The Coronavirus orginated from the city of Wuhan in China and has now
reached every corner of the world, but the virus did not reach China's
capital Beijing and China's Economic Capital Shanghai, located in
close proximity to Wuhan itself.
Today Paris is closed, New York is closed, Berlin is closed, Delhi is
closed, Mumbai is closed, Tokyo is closed, the world's major economic
and political centers are closed, but Beijing and Shanghai are open.
No Coronavirus effect is seen in either cities. There were only a few
cases but the virus had no real effect on Beijing and Shanghai.
Beijing is the city where all the leaders of China live, including
their military leaders. There is no lock down in Beijing.
Shanghai is the city that runs China's economy. It is the economic
capital of China, where all the rich people of China live and run
major industries. There is no lock down here, there is no effect of
the Coronavirus there.
Beijing and Shanghai are the areas adjoining Wuhan. The virus from
Wuhan reached every corner of the world, but the virus did not affect
Beijing and Shanghai.
Another big thing is, that the worldwide share market has fallen by
almost half. In India also the Nifty has gone from 12 thousand to 7
thousand, but the share market of China was at 3000 and just merely
dropped to 2700.
This leaves one to speculate that the Coronavirus is a bio-chemical
weapon of China, which China used to carry out destruction in the
world in order to gain economic supremacy.
China has now put this virus under control, maybe they also have the
antidote/ vaccine that they are not sharing with the world ever or
will do when it is in their best interest to do
Hollywood stars, Australia's Home Minister, Britain's Prime Minister
and Health Minister, Spain's Prime Minister's wife, Canada's Prime
Minister's wife, and Britain's Prince Charles, among others, have
contracted the Coronavirus, but NOT A SINGLE POLITICAL LEADER IN
CHINA, NOT A SINGLE MILITARY COMMANDER in China have tested positive
for Coronavirus.

4. 6 Surprising Facts about Jewish Scotland
by Dr. Yvette Alt Miller
https://www.aish.com/jw/s/6-Surprising-Facts-about-Jewish-Scotland.html
Extracts:
1. Aristocratic Antecedent
One of the earliest Scottish Jews was an aristocratic convert: Lord George Gordon, the youngest son of the third Duke of Gordon. Lord Gordon befriended Jews in the English city of Birmingham, and converted to Judaism sometime in the 1780s, taking the name Yisrael bar Avraham Gordon.
In 1788, Lord Gordon was arrested on charges of defaming Marie Antoinette and sentenced to five years in Newgate Prison. There, he continued his religious observance: he hung a mezuzah on his cell door, ate and drank only kosher food and wine, prayed daily with a tallis and Tefillin, and was allowed to pray with a minyan - ten men - on Shabbat.
At the end of his sentence, the authorities brought Lord Gordon to court, where he was asked to remove his hat and swear to behave lawfully in the future. As a Jew, Lord Gordon refused to remove his head-covering. The testimony of two Orthodox Jews he brought with him to vouch for him in court was disregarded, and Lord Gordon was returned to prison, where he died the following year, age 41.
2. Ellis Island in Glasgow
Most Scottish Jews arrived in the 1890s, when Scottish shipping companies were active in transporting Jewish passengers from Eastern Europe to America. Thousands of passengers were routed through Glasgow and when they arrived, many Jewish immigrants, seeing a vibrant community and a peaceful country, decided to cut their journeys short, settling in Scotland instead of New York. Passengers who were unable to meet the rigorous health standards demanded on Ellis Island also sometimes decided to stay in Scotland, and build their new lives there.
Scotland's Jewish community rose to the challenge of providing for the influx of Eastern European Jews. In 1908, at the peak of Jewish immigration, only 75 received state-funded statutory poor relief in all of Scotland; all other new arrivals had their needs, from housing to health, from education to food, provided by Scotland's many Jewish charities.
3. Inventing Lox
4. Jewish Kilts
5. Kosher Haggis
6. Dwindling numbers and Fear
Despite its proud history and vibrant community, the Jews of Scotland have felt more insecure in recent years. Many younger Jews have left; the community is now estimated at 7,000-8,000, with most Scottish Jews living in Glasgow. Only one Jewish school remains in the entire country.
For years, Scotland was proud that it was the sole European nation never to have experienced violence against its Jewish community. But this security is eroding. As anti-Israel sentiment rises across Scotland, many Scottish Jews report rising levels of anti-Semitism as well.
In 2012, a delegation of Jewish students warned Edinburgh University that campus anti-Zionism had created a 'toxic' atmosphere, leading a number of Jewish students to quit their degrees or transfer elsewhere. Scottish trade unions have been in the forefront of the boycott, divest and sanction group, calling for cutting ties with the Jewish state. In 2013, the Church of Scotland issued a blistering report denying the legitimacy of Zionism and the right of Israel to exist as a Jewish state.
During the recent war in Gaza, anti-Zionist sentiment hit new highs, with local governments in Fife and Glasgow flying Palestinian flags above official buildings. In August 2014, the Scottish Council of Jewish Communities called on national bodies to recognize growing levels of anti-Semitism in the country. "The level of anxiety is unprecedented," said the leader of the Glasgow Jewish Representative Council.

5. Which European country is the safest for the Jews?

Which European country is the safest for the Jews?
Laszla Pal, studied Master of Business Administration Degrees at Corvinus University of Budapest
Answered Nov 24
It is not so easy to define 'safety'. But there was a survey among Jewish communities living in 12 EU countries in 2018, asking the local Jews about concrete problems in their home country. The questions which are closely related to safety had the following results:
Problem: Expressions of hostility towards Jews in the street or other public places
Best countries:
Poland 37%
Hungary 46%
Austria 46%
Worst countries:
France: 91%
Belgium: 81%
Germany: 80%
Problem: Family member a victim of verbal insults or harassment and/or physically attacked because of being Jewish in the past 12 months
Best countries:
Italy 12%
Hungary 14%
Spain 17%
Worst countries:
Belgium 28%
Germany 27%
Poland 25%
Problem: Witnessing other Jews being verbally insulted or harassed and/or physically attacked in the past 12 months
Best countries:
Spain 17%
Italy 19%
France 22%
Worst countries:
Poland 32%
Germany 29%
Belgium 28%
Problem: Worries about becoming a victim of physical attack in the next 12 months because of being Jewish
Best countries:
Hungary 13%
Denmark 18%
UK 20%
Worst countries:
France 58%
Germany 47%
Belgium 41%
Problem: Worries about family member or person close to the respondent becoming a victim of physical attack in the next 12 months because they are Jewish,
Best countries:
Hungary 18%
Italy 27%
Austria 28%
Worst countries:
France 70%
Germany 54%
Belgium 54%
Problem: Experience of antisemitic harassment (at least one out of six forms), in the past 12 months
Best countries:
Hungary 23%
Italy 25%
UK 25%
Worst countries:
Germany 41%
Belgium 39%
Holland 35%

If we try to draw a conclusion from the above figures, we can conclude that the security level in Hungary is probably the highest (5 times in the top 3 out of the 6 questions), followed by Italy, Spain and Austria, and the worst situation is in Germany, Belgium and France.
Again: only Jews (16,500 persons) of 12 EU members were surveyed (but these countries represent over 96 % of the EU�s estimated Jewish population).
