Wuhan Coronavirus: Megathread - Got too big

[אΩ+1]

Death causes her thottery to grow.

Of course, how else is she going to share her infected seed?

I've seen people talk about surviving in the event Corona chan decides to fuck your country. Let me contribute to that. Power leveling here but I grew up in a village in India and our village was hit by a tsunami in 2004. While our village wasn't crushed but we had to live with no electricity for about a month. Also no food was going to come into our village for a month due to the roads(or lack thereof). Here's what you need to know:
-Don't expect Mr.Government to save you was corona chan decides to fuck your country, you are on your own
-Potatoes, Onions and carrots are an excellent source of food because of how easy they are to grow.
-If you need to eat meat, kill an animal and eat the flesh furthest from the nearest bone to prevent illness
-Store grains like rice or pasta as they can last up to 30 years if maintained well
-Have a form of protection like a firearm or crowbar
-If you see an animal dead with no wounds, go away
-You need atleast 2200 calories a day and 3.5L of water a day for 1 person
-Get a hamradio to communicate with other survivors
-Do not depend on a car for transportation
-This is a big stretch but see if you can invest in a hydroponic farm as these dont require any soil for plants to grow in
-Do not use shampoo as shampoo typically binds polluntants such as viruses and radiation to your hair. Simply wash your body with water
-Have clean clothes
-Find a source of potable water(river, stream) as water is precious.
That's all I can think of, until then stay safe.

Well, I'd not recommend something that leaves residue for washing with, but getting something that does not would be fine, right?

I do have something that claims to be an alternative to shampoo, that needs less rinsing.

Yes it would be fine

Looks like the theory of buildings being used as quarantine, prison and crematoriums 3 in 1 isn't that far fetched after all ... When they condemn houses and building's entry... Remember China saying "please, the rest of the world must take drastic measures like us for containing the disease"...

Well...

That is an awful lot of fires and incidents, even if the infrastructure in times of need and scarcity can go to shit, there is a reasonable doubt that all of these aren't a coincidence.

"Burned buildings are an accident, they will not be added in coronavirus death toll, they died by fire ! These are just accidents !"

Do not use shampoo as shampoo typically binds polluntants such as viruses and radiation to your hair. Simply wash your body with water

This sounds like a superstition passed around by the 100% scientifically illiterate.

Shampoo does not 'bind' viruses or radiation to anything - shampoo is simply a detergent. Detergent lifts grease and other pollutants from the skin and hair and in laundrey detergents, clothes. Or in dish soap, dishes. It binds to grease and then the rinse washes it all away. We do not argue that washing dirty dishes with only water is safer. For a reason, because it isn't and to do so would be boneheaded.

Washing properly with detergents or soap is the basis of human hygiene. Go back to Semmelweis and think about it. Washing with only water will not effectively remove the germs, either viruses or bacteria from skin or hair, or the built up oils, and such behavior is what leads to food poisoning and disease transfer. Arguing any form of soap or detergent makes the germs stick to you is basically the total opposite of what actually happens.

As for 'radiation' ... very unlikely this is a problem for anyone outside of a major nuclear accident, but if there is radioactive dust/material on your body, the protocol is to wash yourself thoroughly ... with lots of soap/detergent and water.

Forgive me for my ignorance, I did not proof read my post. I meant to say not to use conditioner. It contains cationic surfactants and polymers which pulls hair (scales of your hair protein) down, creating a smooth strand of hair but trapping any particles of contamination inside the scales of your hair protein. Also I never said to not use soap...

 

[Not Really Here]

If this is what really happened I proclaim the Smert Asian stereotype dead.

"Communist Party officials said on Tuesday they found local officials in Wuhan had responded with severe negligence to initial reports of infections of coronavirus and exacerbated the emergency.

The Global Times, a Chinese state propaganda newspaper, quoted a Beijing official at the General Office of the State Council blaming local officials for a particularly embarrassing incident in which Wuhan health workers intended to transfer coronavirus patients from their homes to hospitals – Wuhan officials had told those with symptoms to self-medicate at home for the first month of the outbreak.

After weeks of reports of ill patients demanding treatment at hospitals and urging doctors to test them to confirm their condition and being turned away, the Communist Party announced it would take in all patients languishing in their homes at once on Sunday. The result, according to Chinese state media itself, was a disaster:"


>Go home, get really really sick and contagious, then using public transport come infect the hospitals.

A doctor who is 9 months pregnant and has her baby due in 20 days is working in a Wuhan hospital with coronavirus victims. People online are lambasting the hospital for letting her work there.

Righty! Pardon my autism then.

Also I never said to not use soap...

It was the 'wash your body with water' comment that suggested that. Anyway, moving on!

 

[LolNoIPLeaksEvenLMFAO]

Welp prob fine because I’m white, but still out in the country anyways. I like my get away place anyways and the SO takes care of the vegetables and I take care of stockpiling/freezing deer. Already have a big ass gate that even leads up here so if we see someone boom headshot. I know it isn’t an issue yet but fuck it. Didn’t buy btc for silkroad and cash out to not buy a Shit load of land and make the boomers that live close to me think I’m a drug dealer.

also got the still running(can be used for water) and an actual dedicated water purification system that can make 5 gallons a day. Plenty of powdered bleach and about 10k rounds for each gun and I’ve got a lot of fucking guns.
Picked up a shockwave for cheap and mini slugs.Have my dedicated slug gun for hunting, reload station, shitloads of powder and bullets. Honestly not really doing too much different than when we come out here just decided fuck it let’s get out of the city before shit might get bad and we’ve been itching from the country. And have tons of precursors growing/stockpiled for emergency meds (that are legal). Worse case I can throw some poppies in the shine and make some landrum and get fucked up before going back to the city. Fuck I love the country air.

now if only my BFF had the same luxury of coming up early. Oh well. Got the backup coms tested so we’re fine.I really don’t expect anything except for a nice vacation from already being loaded lmfao. Also, anyone looking to reload 6.5 is an amazing round and the fucking box has the reload instructions on it. Seriously better than 300win, 308, and various other rounds. Do have the two 50BMGs just incase, but I wish I got my 500blackout upper sooner.

Call it a prepper bunker but it isn’t it’s fucking paradise being in the country IMO. Even not expecting shit to get bad around here but might as well start everything up. Also I fucking love making all different types of shine. Even have an e100 engine that I run in my truck up here. Welp time to get day drunk and go shooting. thankgod for burger land.

Edit: just bomb China already and do them a favor.

 

[EmuWarsVeteran]

Shit, they already got the masks I ordered. Did get a refund. One observation re China using the PLA to put down any unrest. In 1989 Beijing had to bring in units from distant areas to put Tien-An-Men down. Soviets did the same thing during their time. But what happens when this virus is raging all over the country? Am sure PLA troops will hear from their relatives, who will be in all parts of the country. So the tactic of sending in "foreign" troops to put down local unrest may not work. Could see PLA troops facing sick/hungry people like those in their home areas, refuse to fire, maybe turn guns on their own officers. You know such acts will go viral, no pun intended. Just a thought. Anything can happen, and sometimes things can happen very quickly. Added: Still believe this is man-made. As previously stated, have visited outdoor markets many times when living in Korea, years ago. Thousands of Americans from the nearby US base also would go to the market. Never heard of any respiratory illness transmitted by produce at the market. If so, the base would have immediately put market off-limits until things were cleaned up. US bases all over Korea at that time, and every adjoining town/city had markets. Not aware of any respiratory infections at any of those markets, either. These outdoor markets are a fact of life not just in China, but all over Asia, and many other places in the world.

Markets have always been sources of infection due to the high traffic. In china you have to add poor sanitation to boot. Reason they don't quarantine the product in markets with good sanitation is that the primary source of spread in the market will be the human contact not the product itself. Reason why they don't quarantine it in china is because if they were to follow quarantine protocols with the shit sanitation they've had till now they'd have to burn EVERYTHING.

A LOOOOOOOONG time ago (Read: Clinton Administration) the US government supported medical companies having factories in the US so they could operate even at a loss to continue to put out medication. The same with anything else deemed "National Security" like military supplies and the like. Then, it was decided that doing that was stupid. And here we are. US military uniforms and gear made in China, electronics made in Taiwan, medicine made in China. China became the world's manufacturing hub for everything, just so you could buy your lead paint covered asbestos filled toys at Wal-Mart cheap so planned obsolescence and short life before replacement could be the watchword of the day. Just think of how a $5 little add-on saves the screens on most phones, but the companies that make the phones don't add that to make their phones last longer. Ah, well. Do I enjoy my cheap luxuries? Well, duh. But I can live without them. Maybe, boys, it's time. Time to learn how to live without the latest and greatest gadgets. Time to break the Consoomer cycle. Time for Hollywood to have to go back to pandering to the US and Europe instead of the Pollution Goblins. Everyone who was saying the US was Rome about to collapse gets to stare in horror as it's not the US that collapses, but China. Although, I'll be honest: If it hits the shit out the West Coast I'll be the first to volunteer to set up the cratering charges in Snoqualmie Pass. But I'm rambling. Dr. Purr, you're fabulous, baby.

Fuck globalization so much. We really should focus on having at least some factories of everything basic back home. We have a shitton of free space and workforce its not that fucking hard to do! (Except for andorra I guess but honestly the fact that those guys manage to have an economy at all is hilarious to me. The entire god damned country is jusy a village in the middle of the fucking mountains its not even that well connected just how.

All right, we're looking at serious numbers now. By now, you have to be wondering: What can I do to prepare since the Pollution Goblins pulled a raid on my local supply store and bought all the masks and hand sanitizer and now my poorfag ass is sitting here wondering when it's gonna be my turn to the fuck midget? I adjusted the amount of food/supplies because I forgot to take into account a simple thing: I double up on everything and prepare for worst case scenarios but hope for the best, so my supplies assume that 50% of my supplies will be destroyed in whatever disaster goes down. (This is due to the volcanic ash getting into everything and ruining food stocks because the microfine particles seeped through the older seal types and the earthquake destroying about a third of my stocks the other time. Since then I learned to double-up sealing and make sure the supplies are tied down to the shelves and the shelves are properly secured) First of all, you have to know the 3/3/3 theory. Now, the exact numbers vary, but anything beyond those numbers and either you're in excellent shape with plenty of reserves and have done deprivation training or you're fucked. Three minutes without air Three days without water Three weeks without food Yes, you can survive longer than that without air or water, but not without problems. The second thing is how long your isolation can last. Repeat after Uncle Johnny: Nobody is going to come save you. Nobody is coming to help. You are on your own. So, make sure you have water. Recommended is 2 liters of water a day. You can go shorter if you don't move much, but if you are mobile and active, two is a safe bet.When I was in the Gulf I once had to make a canteen last three days. Spoiler, I drank my own piss on Day Three. Why? Because I wanted to fucking live, just like you do now, so let's avoid having to drink out own piss, shall we, boys? You need 8, 8oz bottles per day. Let's go with: Wal-Mart That's a 40 pack of 16 oz bottles. That gives you 4 per day, for 10 days. You need 3 per person in your family if you go bare bones. (I personally would go 6, but I'm a turbo-sped about this plus you can use it for cooking, which is something EVERYONE seems to forget when doing their water consumption estimates) It's cheap. NOW, you should also take all the 1-gallon tard cum-jugs you have, fill it with water, add a single cap of bleach. Write "NON-POTABLE" on the cartoon. This water is also essential. You should have 2 containers per week per person. This is for bathing, washing clothing, wiping down surfaces, all that good stuff. You can bypass this if you want, but remember, the less strain you put on your immune system the more it can fight Corona-Chan in a battle to the death winner take all royal rumble! I also recommend, if you have the money for it, the following: Lemon Concentrate (Adds flavor to water and can be used in cooking) Mio/Extracts (Flavored water/Popsicles) Lime concentrate (Adds flavor AND avoids scurvy) Coffee (Tastes great AND has caffeine, also a good trade good to soldiers) All right, that takes care of drinking. Believe it or not, I usually have a case of beer in my stocks. Not because I drink, but just in case. I once had the novel experience of being in a flood with two alcoholics who were trapped with us. They went through the DT's, making them useless and worse. The beer in my stocks is to ease them off it rather than cold turkey if it ever happens again. Let's move onto food. Some people have asked: Why FORTY-FIVE POUNDS of rice for 30 days for one person? Well, to be honest: Shit happens. The meal gets burnt. Insects get in it. It gets spilled. Caloric intake requirements increase. Most of all, to be honest, is in case I end up having to shelter more than just myself or my family due to loyalty and obligation to my fellow man. I prepare for the absolute worst and hope for the best, and in my case, the worst is taking care of some of my neighbors who helped me when I needed it. It's the same reason I stock baby formula and diapers for infants (and a pack for premies). I gotta live with myself when it's all over. Anyway, enough maudlin bullshit. Let's get to food. Now, you CAN live off of: Potatoes, butter, tard cum, rice, and a mutivitamin, but you'll be fucking useless for any type of high caloric needs. You might get sick, Corona-Chan might take her dancing fat midget self and rub her ass all over your face, meaning you're trying to keep your metabolic furnace running to burn her out. That's the other reason for lots of water. Anyone with you you're caring for is going to be THIRSTY, and unless you're prepared to go out and filter water from mud-puddles for them (And if you run out of water, you WILL get that thirsty) you're gonna need extra water. Starve a cold (of cold) feed a fever (food and heat). Bare minimum, I'm poor supplies, without Crazy Uncle Johnny's Bonus Math. 8 oz potatoes per day per person 6 oz rice per day per person 1/4 can of tuna-fish per day per person (Share this, don't eat it three days after you opened it) 1/4 can of chicken per day per person (replace tuna with this for variation) 1/8 oz of butter per person per day 1/5 can of vegetable per person per day (Get a bunch of different 50 cents a can vegetables to give you variety) Ranch dressing (1 bottle per week, remember, you're going to calories and dense fatty shit) Ketchup, 1 bottle per week per 3 person. (Trace micronutrients will help) Mustard. 1 bottle per week per 3 person. (Taste, yo. Gotta vary that shit up) 1 Multivitamin per day 1 prenatal vitamin per day Congrats. You'll survive, have enough variation to prevent your guts from atrophying and the micronutrients and all that good shit. Best of all, you can even get it all with food stamps/SNAP if you're REALLY fucking poor, and eat it later. If you have a pet, stock up on their food. Otherwise, you will become their food. Now, you're going to need something. We're assuming 45-60 days of "I'm from the government, I'm not here to help" going down. We'll also need to consider power, water, sewage, cable, internet failing. First of all: Read a book read a book, read a motherfucking book. If you can afford it, a chemical toilet. If not, well, listen close to Crazy Uncle Johnny. First of all, your prep. Decide your "waste storage area". It should b e across the house from food preperation and sleeping area and able to be isolated. If things go bad and the power goes out and your fridge is empty, consider moving the fridge there. Buy a couple bottles of porta-potty treatment fluid. When your faucets start spitting and smelling weird: Fill your bathtub. Start saving that non-potable water. It's going to go out soon. Empty the toilet of water (Put it in your non-potable) and get out your duct tape. Take a plastic garbage bag, tape it to the sides of the toilet with the majority of the bag in the toilet bowl. Close the seat. You can now shit there without causing problems down the line. After taking a shit, pour a quarter to half cup of the treatment fluid into it. Oh, you have to piss? Piss in the goddamn sink, you fucking mong. This is fucking survival. You aren't (hopefully) going to need to reprocess your feces for night-soil use in a garden, so if worse comes to worse you can just close the bag, duct-tape it shut, double-bag it, put it on the back porch or wherever. A field expedient after the power is gone and the fridge is empty is to use the fridge to store these bags. The seal will keep the smell from wrecking you up. Another thing you're going to want is small plastic tubs from Walmart, a clothesline, and clothespins. This will let you hand-wash your clothing and hang it up to dry. Use the old borax style laundry soap, more modern soaps take too much effort to remove from the clothing. Borax and/or baking soda is easier to remove. KEEP CLEAN! IT CAN SAVE YOUR LIFE! Now, YOU shouldn't be leaving your home unless ordered out at gunpoint by the military or raiders and hopefully we aren't looking at a raider scenario. Let's get a little further. I know, this is going to sound over the top, but believe me, it's not. Plastic sheeting time. This isn't just to try to keep Corona-Chan from coming into your frontroom and dancing because it's your turn to fuck the midget. There is going to be all kinds of reason to pull P1 on your own house. The smell is one. Backed up sewage, garbage piling up, and, god forbid, dead bodies. That can carry disease AND smells bad. The second one, is that you might get industrial fires and the like, this will keep fumes and ash from entering your home. So, PLASTIC ME UP, DOCTOR PURR! Many of you live in rentals, so you aren't going to be able to do all of this. You'll skip the nails and move to just duct tape instead, unless you think the banks are going to fail and your landlord will end up taking a turn with Corona-Chan and not make it. First of all, you need NON-PERMEABLE plastic sheeting, at least 8 mil. If it's permeable, you just wasted your time. You can actually buy it at Walmart or the other big box stores. Duct tape Box cutter 1"x1/8" wooden strips Cut the sheeting with an extra three inches per side. Cut your wooden strips to mach the dimensions of your windows and doors + 1/2 inch, that'll give you some buffer. Put up sheeting. Attach to wall with wooden strips. Put duct tape over the wooden strip. (This will give you a field expedient seal). Put second layer over top. Nail down. A new layer of duct tape over those nails. Duct-tape shut the edges. Stand back and admire your work. Congrats! Only 20 more windows to go! For doors, you plan on using, you don't do the bottom as normal. You leave the bottom loose, then cut the plastic from 2" from top all the way through the bottom edge, in 3" wide strips, with an additional layer that is only attached at the top over that. That provides you with the ability to leave your house without too much coming back in. If it gets bad, you CAN build an "airlock" but that requires actual work in building a frame, hooking up a vacuum cleaner or shop-vac, and a lot of plastic. If it worked well enough to keep volcanic dust from getting in the house it'll work just fine for this. All right, you're wondering about how you're going to cook. Buy the old "home on the range" percolating tin coffee pot. Buy 2. Also buy coffee filters, because you can use them to filter water from debris (not chemical contamination) and works good for rainwater. Buy a cast iron skillet or three. Buy a cast iron pot with lid. Buy a camping stove. One that uses either fuel tabs and can also use charcoal/wood. I know a lot of people will suggest natural gas ones. If you've never done this shit and haven't handled natural gas before, just get one that runs on pellets because otherwise you're going to fucking kill yourself and everyone else when you don't do the fucking valve right and everyone chokes to death on propane. That's your bare-bones "I'm poor but goddamn it, I'm gonna make it" prep without all the bells and whistles like "Put your rice in coffee cans and/or twist-top jars you've cleaned out well" and all that. If Corona-Chan has gone exponential on us, and if nobody paid attention to keeping the Pollution Goblins in their own hives, she might be coming to a strip club near you. Besides, it's good to have this shit. Most people have less than 72 hours worth the food in their houses. Funnily enough, that's only for the Middle Class and 1%. Us poor people? We buy all our food for the fucking MONTH at the beginning of the month, so we've got 30+ days of food. And remember, when dealing with Methican Americans, two to the dome and bloody foam. They're notoriously hard to kill. PS: Do yourself and everyone else a favor... Go to the little place where you can get dogtags made. Put the following: Name Birthday Blood Type If you have allergies or take medications, make a second one, a RED one, and list: Allergies LIFE SAVING medications Keep a sealed ziploc bag in your pocket containing a list of your normal medications. Do everyone a favor, including some dipshit like me who wants to help you when I find you passed out in the fucking ditch from hunger with a goddamn dog bite. EDIT TWO: I almost forgot! OK, you have to go out. The infection rate in your area is nearing 10% and who knows how many motherfuckers are wandering around with Corona-Chan's nastiness all over themselves. So you don't want to take any risks for yourself or for the people sheltering with you, and you HAVE To go to the store/FEMA Supply Point/Military Supply Point/Loot houses because everyone's dead. But the Pollution Goblins sent the masks back to China and roving bands of Karens with their husband's credit cards bought all the fucking masks. Great. OK, there's a few things I could go into, full "End of the World, baby!" stuff with full containment suits and one-way masks, but let's bypass that right now. First thing is, wear a raincoat or other plastic covering. If you have to, you can make it out of the same sheeting you covered your windows with. If a fucking inbred 500AD bitch could make pants and a shirt by candle-light, you can make it with double-layered duct tape, fishing line, and plastic sheeting. Sure, you'll look dumb as fuck at the FEMA point, but you'll be the stupid looking motherfucker who doesn't die when some stupid asshole sneezes on your back. Next thing is: Head/neck protection. You can go full "Rubberbandits" and make a headmask out of tape and plastic grocery bags. It looks dumb, but people's spit won't get on you and you'll be the dumb looking motherfucker who ISN'T infected. You can also make yourself a cool looking executioner's hood. You should have goggles. Rubber sealant edges are best, but if you're desperate, foam edges swimming/safety goggles work too. That'll keep ash, pollutants, smoke, debris, and Corona-Chan from raping your eyeballs. Next, your mask. But Johnny, you say, me and Dr. Purr checked everywhere, there aren't any! Well, it's arts and crafts time with Crazy Uncle Johnny. First of all, get some HVAC filters. The big ones. You know, two or three feet high, a foot or two wide, a half-inch thick. Highest rating you can afford/find. If it's gone full Mad Max then pull one from the wall and beat it with your hand till the dust all falls out. Get your handy dandy knife (You better have one, you fucking mong), and carefully cut a piece from it an inch wider on each side than your mouth that covers an inch under your chin to the top of your cheekbones. Take your duct tape and put a 1/4" edging on the front and back of your piece of HVAC filter. Take your non-permeable plastic scraps you have left over from your window projects and cut a piece a half inch bigger than your filter. Slice it from an inch from the sides to a quarter inch from the middle, then a half inch from that to an inch from the edge, so you've got two slices. Do that from 1 inch from the top to one inch from the bottom with 1/2" spaces. Do the same for another piece (I'd put a quarter inch offset, but that's just me). Carefully tape the edges of the filter to the inside of the first piece. Set the second piece on top. Tape together. Now for the part where 80% of people make their mistake. Do NOT put a hole in it for the sidebands. That's fucking dumb. and you've just killed yourself, you fucking tard. Instead, run a piece of duct tape folded in half along the top and the bottom, extending out an inch beyond the plastic. Drill your hole in the ouside, a 1/2 inch from the plastic and the far edge of the tape. You can use dental floss if you have to for your straps. Ta-dah! One field expedient mask. Works for everything from volcanic ash to wildfire ash to excessive smoke/smog. It looks dumb, and it's a bare bone one without the inhale/exhale one-way valve system for advanced arts and crafts, but it works. Come back next week when Crazy Uncle Johnny will teach you to build an airlock decon entryway using plastic sheeting, 2x4's or PVC pipe, duct tape, and garden hose. Eagerly awaiting the "Jesus fucking Christ, old man, what the fuck is wrong with you?" ratings.

And another post I recommend people archive. I also find it hilarious that my aspergery tendencies have served me so well, I literally got all of that prepared just because I'm that kinda lazy OCD bastard who goes for months without going out to buy shit when I get too stressed and can't find free time to do it. I guess when the apocalypse happens autism will become a desirable survival trait. Fucking hilarious.

LOL! I posted many, many pages ago about the Chinese eating just about everything and also about us, Australia, placing our Wuhan evacuees onto Christmas Island, one of our external territories. Christmas Island is home to many different types of crab, in particular, the endemic species 'Gecarcoidea natalis' or 'Christmas Island red crab'. Oh, how I laughed when I came across this article.... View attachment 1141882

So we're sure the chinese are indeed homo sapiens and not some kind of mutant intelligent (enough) locust in a human disguise. Right?

View attachment 1141971 From the linked tweet. I don't suppose anyone wants to make a guess what "exotic" meats those are? I don't even think they know how many asymptomatic cases there are, what with the lack of testing kits and hospitals being overburdened already with thousands of patients. There are probably thousands of asymptomatic infected people out there, still unknowingly spreading the disease in China. Contact tracing is impossible at this point.

Many actually acceptable things have that size (specially birds) but the color of the meat and general lack of hygiene at display is so much more worrying. That shit's probably got contaminated by waifus far more dangerous than best girl corona.

On the plus side allowing the boat to keep floating and disease spreading around on it will give a good amount of data on the virus and how fast it moves through a population. I would trust these numbers more then China is putting out. Yes I understand its a cruise ship with recirculated air but still its under quarantine and people are mainly stuck in their cabin this isn't looking good.

The boat IS a great source of info. And it pretty much just confirms everything. This spread isn't even that excessive for flu-like viri in cruisers. It really does seem like most of the chinese deaths are due to china much more than due to our favourite yandere.

As I understand it, Gilead has the patents elsewhere but is still patent-pending in China. Some other entity has applied for a patent for the same drug in China, maybe so the CCP has some leverage over Gilead. I assume that communist chicanery will ensure that the Chinese company mass-producing remdesivir will be in the clear from lawsuits. IANAL though, so better legal minds could chime in and give a better look. That said, maybe Gilead and the CCP are already seeing positive results from the drug and the CCP ordered the Chinese company to start mass-producing in preparation. Of course, it's too early to tell if said drug has long-term side effects, but China really hasn't the luxury of time. Chinese lives and the hold of the CCP on China are on the line.

In no country other than china would this even come close to working. Holy fuck the economic backlash if spain did this would break us the fact that the globalists let Xi do it tells me his childslave labor really is cheap.

I'm expecting cryptocurrencies to spike as anyone of means in China tries to smuggle as much wealth out of the area as they can before the house of cards collapses. Then if it gets really bad, I'm expecting crypto to flatline as people realize that internet money is stupid as hell when critical infrastructure is failing. Wuhan is at that part of the fight where it's flashing red and it takes 4x damage from every attack.

I've played enough rebel inc to know where this is going. Should've kept the insurgents trapped in a 4 tile area, but nooo, they let them loose and now everything's on fire. , should've checked the guides by pravus.

Yeah, about that...

They're coming for your bitcoin. Until they find some way to regulate, control, and subvert it.

To be fair, he's right you know. Crypto are basically sustained entirely through goodwill. I mean technically all money is, but a government can be held accountable, (or at least most governments, seems china forgot about that, the crypto creators can't. It's honestly a matter of time before that shit's either regulated or crashes.

Another Australian Broadcasting Corporation article about a racially vilified person of Chinese descent (Student evicted from Perth house due to landlord's fears of coronavirus outbreak). I strongly suspect that, like the man who died in Sydney, the perpetrator of this racial discrimination is also Asian. It’s a room for $86/week cash in hand and most Asian students I know have Asian slumlords. Also most boomers in Australia don’t give a fuck about WuFlu. I’ve looked everywhere and can’t find any info which makes the landlord’s background clear. If anybody finds anything please @ me.

That landlord's letter sounds perfectly reasonable tbh. If I were a landlord and my tennant had gone to china and stopped contact with me after the outbreak I'd have flipped out much harder. Fucking idiot thinks this foto make him look good? I swear some people have had their brain rotten by politics poe's law might as well be real science at this point.

China has their own completely bogus intellectual property law system that is only designed to fuck over any company or individual that isn't Chinese. It's 100% fine to register stolen shit as long as it was stolen from a foreign entity. The rest of the world just enables the culture of complete utter corruption by letting them strip shelves bare of things like baby formula.

See above. I swear that's just asking for sanctions. Lets hope trump slaps the shit out of them once this is over. Finish them while they're down.

I've seen people talk about surviving in the event Corona chan decides to fuck your country. Let me contribute to that. Power leveling here but I grew up in a village in India and our village was hit by a tsunami in 2004. While our village wasn't crushed but we had to live with no electricity for about a month. Also no food was going to come into our village for a month due to the roads(or lack thereof). Here's what you need to know: -Don't expect Mr.Government to save you was corona chan decides to fuck your country, you are on your own -Potatoes, Onions and carrots are an excellent source of food because of how easy they are to grow. -If you need to eat meat, kill an animal and eat the flesh furthest from the nearest bone to prevent illness -Store grains like rice or pasta as they can last up to 30 years if maintained well -Have a form of protection like a firearm or crowbar -If you see an animal dead with no wounds, go away -You need atleast 2200 calories a day and 3.5L of water a day for 1 person -Get a hamradio to communicate with other survivors -Do not depend on a car for transportation -This is a big stretch but see if you can invest in a hydroponic farm as these dont require any soil for plants to grow in -Do not use shampoo as shampoo typically binds polluntants such as viruses and radiation to your hair. Simply wash your body with water -Have clean clothes -Find a source of potable water(river, stream) as water is precious. That's all I can think of, until then stay safe.

Someone else pointed out the shampoo thing. As for the rest, totally true. Check out city farms/vertical farms protocols for agrarian preparation if you want. Shouldn't be needed unless the supply chain goes to shit but it can also be fun to do and cheaper than market stuff so honestly while I don't do it myself I would recomend those that can and know enough about agriculture do it. It's about damned time we stop depending so much on the supply chain for basic needs. Even when its robust for now.

Forgive me for my ignorance, I did not proof read my post. I meant to say not to use conditioner. It contains cationic surfactants and polymers which pulls hair (scales of your hair protein) down, creating a smooth strand of hair but trapping any particles of contamination inside the scales of your hair protein. Also I never said to not use soap...

Can confirm conditioners, creams and other bollocks can get things dirtier and in the case of a disease be dangerous. Honestly you shouldn't be using that shit to begin with. I know I lack a lot of knowledge about human societal standards and what is considered "atractive" due to the aforementioned spergery, but the fact that people use cosmetics like those will always be something I just find stupid. No amount of societal status should be prioritized over health, hygiene and not having to scrub makeup and hair shit from your pillow and if you're so empty inside that you need that shit to have worth then I am sorry for you and that's the most insulting thing I could say considering how pathetic I am.

(Double post due to character limit, wtf didn't know that was a thing.)

No, it happened today.

Today's numbers are around 130 or so - still high ofc, but within a margin of error for China, that huge spike, that drew attention was for 1300-1400 readings spike some days ago.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention about the god damned vaccine!

This is why I said there's a strong luck component. I can show you when I'm back home a study I saw recently about an attempt to make vaccines for a virus for porcine viral pneumonia. They designed 2 of them. Made a study trying both (on different pigs of course) result? Both total failures. Said virus has yet to be properly vaccinated even though the germans have been fighting it (for economic reasons, no danger to humans) for a while now and all we got is a "vaccine" that doesn't stop infection on the micro levfl, only manages to prepare the organism enough to stop macroscopic symptoms and stop the spread. (And therefore vaccinated pigs are counted as infected and not sold as such since they can't be distinguished)

That's the issue, you're stabing in the dark with this shit. If you get it right first time you fix it in no time. Chances of that are basically 0 though, so statistically it takes a while to get one that works.

This. Cryptocurrency's been around for a few years now, but don't believe it will be in widespread use until some major country (USA, UK, EU, Japan) declares it legal tender.

Not even Venezuela is suicidal enough to fall on that sword. Keep in mind that they already tried making their own worthless crypto before and they still haven't declared bitcoin legal tender despite it being their only viable currency they can use.

I like my get away place anyways and the SO takes care of the vegetables and I take care of stockpiling/freezing deer. Already have a big ass gate that even leads up here so if we see someone boom headshot.

I am so fucking jealous of you right now.

Got the backup coms tested so we’re fine.I really don’t expect anything except for a nice vacation from already being loaded lmfao.

What do you do for a living? I want some of that.

I've always wondered if it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a national cryptocurrency, which would be precious metal backed, and adjusted to stay as flat as possible, and then have regional physical currency. If regional governments acted like tards financially, it wouldn't effect the overall economy that much.

You basically just described national debt really.

A doctor who is 9 months pregnant and has her baby due in 20 days is working in a Wuhan hospital with coronavirus victims. People online are lambasting the hospital for letting her work there.

[pull over dat ass too fat]

Are there primary schools closing due to illness around you guys? I'm not sure how common it is for this to happen around this time of year or if it's also occurring in many areas, since google is region-biased.

Also, about to go to the doc again today for bronchitis/chest symptoms worsening, persistent fever and antibiotics not doing shit. Wish me luck my paranoid brethren.
