Wuhan Coronavirus: Megathread - Got too big

[EmuWarsVeteran]

Everything is fine when prime ministers cancel their schedules one week ahead of the country's parliamentary election in Bratislava, Slovakia, February 20, 2020

Slovak PM Pellegrini cancels schedule due to illness

Slovak Prime Minister Peter Pellegrini canceled his agenda because of sudden ill...

www.reuters.com

“Prime Minister Peter Pellegrini was hospitalized yesterday night due to acute upper respiratory tract infection accompanied with high temperature. Due to his condition, he is cancelling his entire schedule temporarily,” Pellegrini’s office said in a statement."

Is this serious enough yet for europe to close all it's fucking borders, please ?

Ceuta and Melilla have been enduring the entrance of radical islamic terrorists through morocco since they exist. Europe keeps warning spain if it closes that border it will endure heavy sanctions, even when it is known a specific terrorist org is planning an attack.

No. This is not enough for Merkel and Sarkosy to care.

 

[Not Really Here]

Has anyone published Corona-chan's real death rate? I've read anywhere from 2% to 20%.

No, but for what it's worth the Johns Hopkins Dashboard-
https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6

Currently has 79,551 active cases and 27,807 closed cases.
Of the 27,807 closed cases 2,626 died.
So for now, (assuming the Chinese numbers are accurate) the mortality rate is close to 10%.
Unknown just how many have been infected or died in those sealed buildings in China.

Seventh death in Italy:

Coronavirus in Italia, sei vittime e oltre 200 contagi

L’Italia è il terzo Paese al mondo per numero di contagi. La Commissione Europea: «Lodiamo le autorità per la loro azione rapida ed efficiente»

www.corriere.it

An 80 yo brought last Thurday to the hospital for a heart attack, just when patient one was also in the process of being hospitalized. He was first in ICU and then moved to Milan at Sacco hospital once tested positive.
Corona-chan got him in three and a half day.

I will probably post a better link once the news got its own article, instead of the 'hour-by-hour" general update.

EDIT:

it says: Death of woman from Crema denied.
The retractin comes from the Region of Lombardy: in the past hours the news of a woman from Crema dying at the hospital in Brescia had begun circulating.
This was the alleged 6th death. So six deaths for now, the last one being the heart attack guy.

Seems like someone is dying of this in Italy every few minutes now

So, in this age of Globalization, businesses operate on razor-thin profit margins. This is why we've been seeing a retail apocalypse, basic costs of overhead are too much for many stores. Sears was the largest private real estate owner, their physical assets have become a liability.

Now we see a bad flu is enough to knock down our most financially successful corporation. There's many things about the coronavirus response that have disappointed me, but this is probably the greatest. China's frailty is our own.

I haven't been following as close due to work as much but iirc so far everyone dead in Italy has been elderly? And most already had other petsistant illnesses?

Was the very sick 36 year old from Italy?

I feel for this guy though imagine already having a shitty time from a heart attack and then catching Corona. Didn't stand a chance.

Is this serious enough yet for europe to close all it's fucking borders, please ?

Lol are you serious? That's some real racism and xenophobia I'm seeing. Yikes. We need to fight this virus with love by opening all borders and doing everything possible to keep our slave labor working. The elites need more currency to roll DMT soaked blunts with.

If the economy collapses from this, they won't blame the fragile system and the greed that created it. They'll find some way to blame Trump, Brexit, and "sinister" right-wing populism. Bonus points if Chocolate Jesus and/or Mike Obama pop up to say this is what happens when you don't have hope and embrace change.

Wait, does this mean it doesn't just kill Chinese people and wasn't engineered to stop the Hong Kong color-controlled revolution?

I tried to verify with sources but couldn't find any yet, but word on the street is that the U.S. is about to send 3 to 5 billion dollars to China to keep them afloat.

Yes, if there's one thing China lacks, it's US debt. I'm sure they would be ever so grateful for another tiny fraction of what they already own.

Seeing as how they hemorrhage money literally every day, that debt would be both a drop in the bucket and boon to their shrinking economy.

China doesn't already hold more than $1.1 trillion in US debt? Understood, makes perfect logical sense.

Residents of the small commune of Rozzano outside Milan lined up at grocery store. Driven by fears of the rapidly-spreading coronavirus, Italians in the Lombardy region have begun stockpiling food and basic necessities, leaving shops in a post-apocalyptic-looking state.
