YouTube Resistiré 2020 - Video Oficial


Resistiré
Dúo Dinámico

Cuando pierda todas las partidas
Cuando duerma con la soledad
Cuando se me cierren las salidas
Y la noche no me deje en paz

Cuando sienta miedo del silencio
Cuando cueste mantenerme en pie
Cuando se rebelen los recuerdos
Y me pongan contra la pared

Resistiré, erguido frente a todo
Me volveré de hierro para endurecer la piel
Y aunque los vientos de la vida soplen fuerte
Soy como el junco que se dobla
Pero siempre sigue en pie

Resistiré, para seguir viviendo
Soportaré los golpes y jamás me rendiré
Y aunque los sueños se me rompan en pedazos
Resistiré, resistiré

Cuando el mundo pierda toda magia
Cuando mi enemigo sea yo
Cuando me apuñale la nostalgia
Y no reconozca ni mi voz

Cuando me amenace la locura
Cuando en mi moneda salga cruz
Cuando el diablo pase la factura
O si alguna vez me faltas tú

Resistiré, erguido frente a todo
Me volveré de hierro para endurecer la piel
Y aunque los vientos de la vida soplen fuerte
Soy como el junco que se dobla
Pero siempre sigue en pie

Resistiré, para seguir viviendo
Soportaré los golpes y jamás me rendiré
Y aunque los sueños se me rompan en pedazos
Resistiré, resistiré



I will resist
Dúo Dinámico

When I lose all games
When I sleep with loneliness
When the exits are closed to me
And the night won't leave me alone

When I'm afraid of silence
When it's hard to keep me on my feet
When the memories rebel
And put me up against the wall

I will resist, erect in front of everything
I will turn iron to harden my skin
And although the winds of life blow strong
I'm like the reed that bends
But it still stands

I will resist, to continue living
I will take the blows and I will never give up
And even if my dreams are broken into pieces
I will resist, I will resist

When the world loses all magic
When my enemy is me
When nostalgia stabs me
And don't even recognize my voice

When madness threatens me
When my coin comes out cross
When the devil passes the bill
Or if you ever miss me

I will resist, erect in front of everything
I will turn iron to harden my skin
And although the winds of life blow strong
I'm like the reed that bends
But it still stands

I will resist, to continue living
I will take the blows and I will never give up
And even if my dreams are broken into pieces
I will resist, I will resist
Nice! Where are these artists From?

It's not NATO's job to help with this kind of healthcare cases. NATO better spend it's resources where they are the most effective: at it's military.

Also you can bet there are many civilians helping each other out between the countries, so you (Spain) are already receiving help from many other countries that never need to be named for some political gain.

NATO forces are trained and equipped for NBC warfare, and can be very effective with an outbreak like this.

re: " “close” proximity and or eating" infected animals

diseases can transfer from virtually any nonhuman animal to humans

the type of virus, bacterium, protists and etc. and the presence of a "hardened" resting stage determines whether it can transfer by airborne particles, droplets, or ingestion

I dunno if that is what the poster is asking or not. If not, re-post a more specific question and I will try to answer it.

Hello from France,

It appears that in the title of this post, somebody could replace « china » by « world ».

If you carry that idea a little farther:

World wine, world bread, world cuisine, world chambermaid, world chef, world restaurant, world people, world language...

I sense some loss of meaning to me if I don't say "French" above...

So, I reject the thesis.

re: mask 'cleaning'

I would want to ensure that any cleaning method does NOT increase the porosity of the material the mask is made from.

Good Luck.

Nice! Where are these artists From?

From Spain. It is an old hymn from Dúo Dinámico.

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dúo_Dinámico
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dúo_Dinámico

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistiré_(canción_del_Dúo_Dinámico)

[ "Resistiré" is a song made popular by the Dynamic Duo, which appeared on their 1988 album En forma, the second album released by this duo after its reappearance two years earlier with the self-titled album Dúo Dinámica, which was the first recorded for the record label Sony.

Over time, it has become one of the group's best-known songs, undoubtedly the most significant of its last stage, especially after being included in the soundtrack of Pedro Almodóvar's film Tie Me Up! (1990) and chosen as a hymn during the confinement and quarantine by coronavirus in 2020.

"Resistiré" was composed by Manuel de la Calva, one of the members of the Dynamic Duo and was written by Carlos Toro Montoro, a Spanish journalist and composer, creator of more than 1,800 songs, of which an important number have been great successes.1 The song uses samples from Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive... ]

I’m ultimately getting at this.

Hopefully once we get a handle on this, the world can condemn this practice.

China banned wet markets permanently in mid- to late Feb.

IIRC, they banned them earlier but they went underground so reversed the ban with more controls.

To eliminate a practice that goes back many centuries if not millennia is a non-trivial pursuit.

Sure, let's get rid of wild game markets. But A) The article is patently political ("China has no regard for the individual"; "China cannot be trusted") and B) it's a false premise that wet markets are the essential problem or that somehow another culture is to blame for being inferior. (Anybody remember Mad Cow in the très sophistiqué UK?) The problem is evolutionary biology that enables disease vectors to mutate. Alas, that will never change and new diseases are a fact of nature. This is a good place to start: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK114494/

They are equipped to handle NBC warfare in a military scenario on a battlefield.

The equipment NATO uses for NBC warfare is not what hospitals are needing right now. As a hospital doctor the last thing you need is to climb into a full NBC hazmat suit and wear that for the rest of your working day and then also go through all the protocols to keep that suit clean and safe, it's just not practical for use in a civilian hospital.

Even though the press loves to call hospitals with a high load of COVID-19 patients a "battlefield", it is far from a real military battlefield and as such should not be named so.

12.9% of cases in Chicago have been placed in the ICU. Seems high.
