I have been a Distributor since 1993 and then the General Manager of Australasia Corp Ltd in New Zealand. Company changed into the hands of Nutrimetics and since 2009 this Canadian mineral supplements has not been commercially available.
I recently found quite a few cases stored in a shed in Auckland New Zealand, the oldest with a best before date of May 2002.
Customers continue to search for this mineral supplements from Canada and are enjoying this very rare vintage. As we are running out I am trying to keep it a secret but it is not going very well.
What is coronavirus?
According to the WHO, coronaviruses are a family of viruses that cause illnesses ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and the Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS).
These viruses were originally transmitted between animals and people. SARS, for instance, was transmitted from civet cats to humans while MERS moved to humans from a type of camel.
Several known coronaviruses are circulating in animals that have not yet infected humans.
The name coronavirus comes from the Latin word corona, meaning crown or halo. Under an electron microscope, the image of the virus looks like a solar corona.
The novel coronavirus, identified by Chinese authorities on January 7 and since named COVID-19, is a new strain that had not been previously identified in humans. Little is known about it, although human-to-human transmission has been confirmed.
