State, local and primary elections in Wisconsin must proceed, the state supreme court said after ruling that the governor lacks authority to postpone them – which he tried to do earlier, citing the coronavirus crisis. The court handed the 4-2 ruling on Monday afternoon, after the Republican majority in the state legislature complained that Governor Tony Evers overstepped his powers by ordering the April 7 primary […]

(Natural News) As densely populated cities like New York City and Madrid suffer significant losses from coronavirus, people are increasingly heading for more remote areas to help reduce their odds of catching the deadly illness. Data provided by Redfin shows that daily searches for rural properties were 125 percent higher during the first three weeks of March, with searches spiking by 364 percent over the previous […]
(Natural News) Experts have repeatedly told us that the best way to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus is to avoid physical distance with sick people. But that’s pretty difficult to achieve in modern society, where more than half the world’s population lives in urban areas, using public transport, eating in the same restaurants, drinking together in pubs, and interacting in a myriad other ways […]
(Natural News) Under an emergency declaration issued by Delaware Governor John Carney, Delaware law enforcement officers were given the power to stop vehicles driving in the state solely for bearing tags from another state. After pulling over the vehicle, police can ask questions regarding the driver’s recent travels. They will also be told that they must either return immediately to their home state or carry out […]
Stories of human tragedy abound during the Covid-19 pandemic, but in its hunger for tearjerking moments, CBS has thrown the rulebook out the window and spread some viral “fake news.” In a clip aired on Sunday but filmed a week earlier, nurse Imaris Vera bursts into tears and describes how she quit her job after “none of the nurses” in a dedicated coronavirus unit were wearing […]
(Natural News) The rapidly spreading coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a viral respiratory infection that causes flu-like symptoms. Despite the growing number of cases worldwide, the disease itself is not particularly fatal, especially given a functioning immune system and a lack of underlying conditions. Experts suggest that the disease can cause severe, life-threatening symptoms especially given immunocompromised individuals and preexisting respiratory and cardiovascular conditions. Fortunately, it appears […]
Submitted by Lawrence Sellin, Let’s be clear, although there have been many attempts to do so by scientists worldwide, so far, no one knows the origin of CoVid-19, the coronavirus strain responsible for the global pandemic. CoVid-19 has several unique features such as high-affinity human angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) receptor binding, a furin (polybasic) cleavage site and certain “open reading frame” derived proteins, all of which come […]
(Natural News) Until even just a few days ago there were still many people in this country and around the world who stubbornly insisted that the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, was no more dangerous than the flu. They argued that governments were hyping the whole thing up and making people hysterical for no good reason. With each passing day, however, as desperate doctors beg people to stay […]
(Natural News) If you’re an experienced prepper, you probably finished setting up your gear and a survival stockpile as early as December 2019 when word started spreading about a disease called coronavirus (COVID-19). Now, as the world continues to struggle because of this fast-spreading disease, even non-preppers may be inspired to start prepping to get ready for the coronavirus pandemic. To the uninitiated, prepping may be just […]
(Natural News) These are troubled times and citizens are practicing social distancing to prevent the further spread of coronavirus (COVID-19). But once your supplies dwindle down, you need to leave the house to replenish your stocks, meaning you (and your groceries) would be exposed to all types of bacteria and viruses. Do you know how to properly decontaminate your purchases before entering your front door? To […]
(Natural News) When President Trump last year referred to a coming “perfect storm” without any context, bewildered reporters asked him about the meaning of this mysterious reference, to which Trump left them hanging in suspense. Now we’re in the year 2020 facing an unprecedented global pandemic, and rapidly coming into view is the ominous prospect of mass starvation due to a potential food supply collapse. Because […]
(Natural News) Is 5G to partially blame for coronavirus deaths? Can 5G cause the blood that’s circulating in your body to be unable to carry oxygen? What’s especially horrifying about the critical care of coronavirus patients is that they aren’t suffering from “viral pneumonia,” but rather from an inability to absorb or carry oxygen in the blood. This has been confirmed by NYC ICU emergency physician […]

(Natural News) Fears about 5G radiation towers inducing or exacerbating the symptoms associated with the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) are driving some people to light the technology on fire in acts of protest. In Birmingham, England, for instance, a 5G mast that went up in flames the other day was captured on video as it burnt to a crisp. Similar burnings have also occurred in Liverpool, Melling, […]
It will likely surprise no one to learn that a wild conspiracy theory linking the novel coronavirus pandemic to 5G wireless networks has its roots in, among other places, QAnon. Unfortunately, it seems some celebrities and influencers have nonetheless taken the bait—and some British citizens have begun to burn down cell towers. Scientists have debunked the notion that any link exists between the coronavirus pandemic and […]
(Natural News) Because of a patchwork of reporting requirements and regulations regarding the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), the actual number of Americans killed by the disease is far higher than the “official” count, experts believe. As reported by The New York Times on Sunday: More than 9,400 people with the coronavirus have been reported to have died in this country as of this weekend, but hospital officials, […]

Norway has called for more aid to support the struggling economy of the occupied Palestinian territories in the face of the coronavirus crisis, Haaretz has reported. The Palestinian Authority estimates that it needs $120 million to respond to the pandemic, but Norway’s Foreign Minister Ine Eriksen Søreide expects the needs to grow as the measures already taken to prevent the spread hit the Palestinian economy and […]
As prompted by Trump’s optimistic speech on Sunday evening in which the president said he saw signs the pandemic is beginning to level off, which came after a sharp drop in the latest number of NY corona cases, an optimistic mood of trader euphoria that the peak of the coronavirus pandemic is behind us helped boost stocks around the globe, and sent US equity futures as […]
(Natural News) Following suspicions that the coronavirus outbreak began due to the consumption of exotic meat, Shenzhen, a city in southern China with over 12 million people – and shares a border with Hong Kong – becomes the first Chinese city to ban the sale and consumption of dog and cat meat. This new law will come into force on May 1 of this year. While […]

(Natural News) People infected with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can spread the disease even before they show symptoms, says a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Published in this week’s Morbidity and Mortality Report (MMWR), it revealed how people infected with the coronavirus can transmit the disease one to three days before the onset of symptoms, making them “presymptomatic carriers.” The report also […]
(Natural News) Based on guidance from the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the White House is expected to issue a new policy recommendation this week urging all Americans to wear face masks whenever they go out in public. Because it makes some people feel safer amid this crisis, covering one’s mouth with some kind of cloth is the official government “remedy” for […]
Last week, John Oliver returned for a stripped-down, social distancing-friendly version of Last Week Tonight following a brief hiatus due to the ongoing novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. There, he verbally undressed Trump over his “failed” response to the crisis and introduced his audience to some seriously bizarre/hilarious rat erotica. On Sunday night, Oliver returned to his bluish void of a set where he aimed his ire […]
