Medical slang for a severe immune reaction in which the body generates an over production of immune cells and their activating compounds (cytokines) and releases them into the blood too rapidly. A cytokine storm is on the opposite end of the spectrum from an under active response by the immune system.
Treatments during a COVID-19 pandemic may be very different depending on one's body's response, especially since some of the most vulnerable over respond with a cytokine storm or under respond because of a hypo immune disorder. So before taking fish tank cleaner you need to be able to get a professional to tell the difference between a cytokine storm and a hypo immune disorder, and get your medicine prescription from a read medical doctor and pharmacy vs politician-pet store.
A cytokine storm is typically activated by an infection, dysfunctional autoimmune conditions, and/or disease. Symptoms include severe fever, nausea, headache, inflammation (eg rash - redness/swelling), rapid heartbeat, low blood pressure, trouble breathing , and fatigue. In a mild cytokine storm the response may be temporary but a severe storm may cause multiple organ failure.
A severe cytokine storm is also know as hypercytokinemia.

Get the cytokine stormmug. Whip Inflation Now. It was a pin people were encouraged by Gerald R. Ford to wear in the 1970's to discourage runnaway inflation.
Geez, I wonder why Bush hasn't broken open Gerald Ford's surplus WIN buttons, inflation is going to get serious if he doesn't do it soon. It may have taken 15-20 years and a couple recessions but those WIN buttons really did the trick.

Get the WINmug. Fencing is the actions of the go between for a thief and buyer of the thief's stolen goods. The buyer may unwittingly buy stolen goods from a fence in yard sales, flea markets, through classified ads, or other traditional markets. A shrewed form of fencing is when the fencer poses as a fence for stolen goods and sells cheap illegal imitations of name brand goods at high prices under the pretence that they are more expensive legit versions.
Pawn shops are no longer very good for fencing since the persons selling to them are finger printed, and there is strict accounting of all the goods sold.

For many staying woke has created a collective social consciousness that has protected marginalized groups and communities. For a small segment who doesn't have a clue as to what staying woke means, they have devolved into a divisive call-out culture which has created a new form of social divisiveness.
