Wuhan Coronavirus: Megathread - Got too big

Not open for further replies.
I remember the cold war. Used to have nightmares sometimes about nuclear attacks imminent and the early warning sirens in my city in times when things boiled a bit over here and there sometimes or the soviet union got erratic in it's last years. One time a group of sirens malfunctioned in my area and went off at night apropos of nothing, that was fun. So much that I'll never forget it. Couldn't even jump on the internet to figure out if they finally did it and ended the world. Only had a pocket radio. Then the various coup attempts in about-to-dissolve soviet union and young russia that were also scary because they brought about a lot of uncertainty. Most here didn't witness this is my guess, even a young russian woman I know never even heard about the latter. It's funny how quickly all that fear was forgotten, while it was dominating minds, arts, and culture back then. My guess it'll go an equal way here until the next super-AIDS, but it really is a joke in comparison and I just wouldn't concern myself as much as some people in this thread do. You can't do anything anyways. If it's hyper-ebola, you're fucked. If it's less than that, it depends on your own luck and certain common sense rules everyone knows about. Everything beyond that is out of your control. What I figured out back then is that if the world ends, a few cans of beans and a bunch of water is not gonna make your life afterwards worthwhile. Might as well not stress out about something like that.
Basically this is a situation of eat drink be merry for tomorrow you shall die.
 
I see lot of you retards are buying masks and gloves and shit. This is purely defensive measure and we all know that the best defence is attack. So attack the virus by ingesting it and defeating it with your immune system - you're now immune, a day walker among the huddling masses - the world is your oyster. Steady revenue from selling your own blood as cure for the virus to desperate infected hordes.
To maximise your chances of surviving the WuFlu, you should try to get infected and cured as soon as possible, before the hospitals have run out of supplies/medical personnel and are full of MRSA and any other secondary ailments arising from all the corpses.
My own patented 7 Step plan for surviving the #Coronavirus Pandemic OC, do not steal.
1) Travel to China
2) Bribe your way into Wuhan
3) Have unprotected sex with infected local prostitutes until the virus takes.
4) Exfiltrate from Wuhan
5) Travel back from China (BONUS: Cough on any assholes you specifically do not like)
6) Get treated by your local rested and well supplied medics
7) PROFIT!

No need to guess how Greta Thunberg would react to that strategy. She'll said her catchphrase "How dare you?". :story:

I would but already had pneumonia twice in 3 years as much as I'd enjoy corona chans kiss. I'm not down for another hospitalization. Why don't you do it?
 
Call me brutal… IF our govt. decided to help people with evacuation, my caveat as a Very Important Govt. Person, (in theory!), would be that they sign off on staying in quarantine in a designated facility for 14 - 18 days. No exceptions, We have quarantine laws we can invoke. ANYBODY being pulled out of China should be required to stay in quarantine.

I knew a British dude some years ago who managed to catch chicken pox on his trip home to the UK from Japan. He developed the spots on the plane, realised only then he was infected and landed with his face covered in them. Tried to keep his head down and his hoodie up and get through immigration/customs. Failed. They took one look at the state of him, took him aside and he spent the next two weeks forcibly detained in a hospital quaratine unit unable to communicate with the rest of the world until he was better and cleared of having some tropical illness. It's good to be a serious country about incoming plague carriers.
 
Bet you five bucks we're never hearing about these labs again, five BSL-4 labs over a fucking flu? They're trying to invent face out of thin air here.
Note that the article was publish in Nov. 2017.
Notice the present of Terri Chu, who made an earlier on this thread crying racism.
This is pure insanity. Any reasonable person throws concerns of "bias and racism" out the window when it comes to their safety and especially the safety of their children.
I intend to avoid all Chinkies until further notice. Fuck them. I'd rather be racist than hacking up blood. I know how racist most Chinese are anyway, they are world leaders in racial stereotyping so they can really and truly fuck off and die on this subject. I mean, if you want to risk your kids to prove how Not A Racist you are, knock yourself out. Darwinism in action.
According to this guy there is fighting in fujian.
Though i'm not sure if the guy in the video is speaking Chinese
I read that the mainland Chinese are become scared of the Hubei people, the Hong Kongers are become scared of mainlanders and the rest of the world is becoming scared of Chinese/East Asian.

Honestly, this is disheartening, but what else are going to do? Saying "trust the authorities and don't panic" isn't going to cut it.
At least a few private schools in Toronto, (Montessori), with a fair number of Chinese students have made it policy that anyone who travelled to China must provide proof, (in the form of tickets/boarding passes), of their return date & keep their kids home for... I think 17? days. I saw 1 such parent interviewed earlier today. She had no problems with that & seemed to completely understand where that came from.

That's the problem with politicizing & "SJW'ing" every bloody thing under the sun. Reasonable, prudent measures of any sort; especially in the face of a POTENTIAL world-wide major health issue, should never have to pass through a filter of political correctness.
It's just like the big boy Communists, which political ideology and public relation trumps any technical competency and all considerations of reality.

The real sad part is that everything are trying to prevent will become true because of their (in)actions. They wanted to prevent the spread of panic, mistrust and "fake news", but guess what we are getting? They wanted to prevent all the economic loses from quarantines and border closings, but guess what we are getting? They wanted prevent a rise in racism and xenophobia, but guess what we are getting?

I'm too lazy for the first 5 steps. You do it and when you get back you can cough on me and I'll jump straight to step 6.

What the fuck are you on about? The UK lost track of 1,500 tourists from Wuhan. They're not on top of a fucking thing.
 
Caught up with friend who had family in Wuhan, some anecdotal info:
  • Family had left Wuhan weeks early but is still being isolated to their airbnb? room in another province because they came from Wuhan, they get food brought to them and there doesn't seem to be any problems for them given how casually they talked about it.
  • He believes media has really overblown the situation, it's more a problem of stupid people doing stupid stuff regarding the outbreak.
  • Overall, didn't seem that distressed over the outbreak and more frustrated at the whole situation.
I discussed the outbreak with some other people, no real concern about it coming here and doing a lot of damage, more just discussion about how being in China probably sucks and that one person I talked to had a friend about to leave to study abroad in an area near China that has now had their flight cancelled and no real idea for how long.
 
FINALLY heard back from CDC. Came thirty minutes ago.

Here's the text of the email.

Thank you for contacting CDC-INFO.

We hope you find the following information about coronavirus treatment helpful.

There is no specific antiviral treatment recommended for 2019-nCoV infection. People infected with 2019-nCoV should receive supportive care to help relieve symptoms. For severe cases, treatment should include care to support vital organ functions.

People who think they may have been exposed to 2019-nCoV should contact your healthcare provider immediately.

This information can also be found on CDC’s website at URL: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/about/prevention-treatment.html



Well, the question's been asked and answered.

US drug makers are sending antivirals to China to see if and how they work. So people in China and the USA believe there's a chance something will be effective.

U.S. Drugmakers Send Antiviral Drugs To China To Assess Treatment Effectiveness Against Coronavirus
Jan 28, 2020

Wall Street Journal: U.S. Drugmakers Ship Therapies to China, Seeking to Treat Coronavirus
“U.S. drugmakers are shipping antiviral drugs to Chinese health authorities to assess whether the medicines could help contain the explosion of respiratory virus infections sweeping the country. … There are no vaccines or drugs approved anywhere in the world specifically for the new coronavirus, prompting health authorities to explore repurposing untested antivirals in a desperate effort to help contain an outbreak that has been spreading rapidly in China and has appeared in more limited cases overseas…” (Hopkins/McKay, 1/27).

Additional coverage of efforts to find treatments and vaccines for the novel coronavirus is available from Bloomberg and Science.
*blinks* so maybe this outbreak is planned?
