Letâs help at-risk professionals and everyday people beat the coronavirus!

Hey there,
Itâs-a-me, your Pandemic Pal, Corona Chum, and Quarantine . . . uhhhh . . . Quixote?
And here we are, socially stranded, steadily sanitized, and slightly stir crazy thanks to The Rona, which isnât merely âanother flu,â as many not-doctors on (delete your) Instagram would have you believe.
But hey, there are some white clouds in the sky, too.Â
For instance . . .
1. Thanks to the cancellation of sports, many men have discovered they live with women and children who seem pretty nice.
2. Weâve discovered how someone eating bat soup in China can cause a worldwide shortage in toilet paper.
3. This may lead to an orgiastic baby boom, and in the 2030s, weâll witness the rise of THE QUARANTEENS.
Ha ha ha, and thatâs not all sweet cheeksâopen your mouth, so I can ladle some more rich, creamy good news into it.
According to a March 19th message from Harvard Health Publishing...
- Most people with COVID-19 recover. Estimates now suggest that 99% of people infected with the virus that causes COVID-19 will recover. Some people have no symptoms at all. And while thousands of people have died, the overall death rate is about 1% (or perhaps even lower), far less than MERS (about 34%), SARS (about 11%), or Ebola (90%), though higher than the average seasonal flu (0.1%).
- Children seem to be infected less often and have milder disease. According to the CDC, the vast majority of infections so far have afflicted adults. And when kids are infected, they tend to have milder disease.Â
- The number of new cases is falling where the outbreak began. During his speech declaring the new coronavirus outbreak a pandemic, the director-general of the WHO pointed out that âChina and the Republic of Korea have significantly declining epidemics.â In fact, Wuhan province (site of the very first cases) has just reported no new local cases for the first time since the outbreak began.Â
- Scientists around the world are making breakthroughs in developing a vaccine. For instance, vaccination trials are already underway at Kaiser Permanente, Israeli scientists are nearing development of their first vaccine, and China is testing five different vaccine options, claiming it could have one ready by next month.
- Many businesses have stepped up to help us through the crisis. The sports world is raising money for stadium employees, Uber Eats is divvying out free delivery to help independent restaurants, professional soccer players are entertaining viewers with a FIFA tournament, and restaurants are doling out free food to those in need, to name just a few out of dozens.
Whatâs more, if we all comply with the requested precautions, we may get to enjoy a tide of positive developments and see a marked shift toward normalcy by the end of next month.
So, letâs just mind our own business for a couple of weeks, and then weâll be able to say we survived the Great Toilet Paper Crisis of 2020 and not . . . something else.
And to help us get there faster, hereâs what Legion will do:
Weâre going to donate 20% of this weekâs profits to the Center for Disaster Philanthropy, which is supporting healthcare workers, quarantined and especially vulnerable individuals, and hygiene promotion activities.
Whatâs more, weâve just put our bestselling health supplements on sale for 15% off, and as thereâs no cap on the donations, the more we sell, the more we give.

Now, whatâs the Center for Disaster Philanthropy up to, youâre wondering?
1. Theyâre providing masks, gowns, gloves and other essential personal protective equipment to essential medical staff who are at increased risk because of their close contact with people who may be infected.
2. Theyâre supporting people unable to go to work, go shopping for necessities, attend social functions or even see their families in some cases.
3. Theyâre increasing access to Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) resources to help limit the spread of all viruses and other infections.
And why did we choose them?
Well, we love what theyâre doing, theyâre small and truly appreciate the help, and they have an outstanding ranking on Charity Navigator (92.22%).
So, if you feel like doing something a little heroic today, please support us in our mission to not only help reform the sports nutrition industry, but also to give at-risk professionals and everyday people the help weâd appreciate if we were in their shoes.

P.S. If you don't need any supplements at the moment, you can still help by sharing this with friends and family! Weâd really appreciate it!
P.P.S. Let's end this on another positive note, shall we? A promising new study has found a drug developed over half a century ago to treat malaria (hydroxychloroquine) may also help cure COVID-19âespecially when combined with an antibiotic.
