When Elon Musk starts to interfere with everything like he did with the Thai cave then I’ll start panicking.

For once, shit education isn't the main cause. It's the idiots who didn't pay attention who are the problem. Only so much you can do about someone who refuses to learn. When I was in school, attempts at goofing off and sneaking whispered conversations in was a constant. These jackasses made things harder for anyone who actually wanted to learn.

Officials announce possible coronavirus outbreak in Washington nursing facility
Officials on Saturday announced a possible outbreak of coronavirus at a nursing facility in Washington State, a serious situation given the risks the virus poses to elderly people.

Over a 100 cases in Germany now. You can't stop it anymore. I guess I'll have to run some errands on Monday just to be on the safe side.

What is it with Berlin and former DDR? There are bound to be some cases, at least in Berlin.

If you want to panic yourself into an early grave, by all means, do. Worrying won't lengthen your life, it'll only shorten it, but I have no relationship to you, so no skin off my nose.
If you'd rather be calm, collected, and prepared, then limit your social interactions, wash your hands, stop touching your face, avoid public restrooms and spaces, and make sure you're stocked up in essentials (food, soap, other toiletries, etc.).
If you do get sick, I would highly advise that you only visit the hospital if you're very ill. They are essentially breeding grounds for all sorts of nasty diseases, partially because of how many ill people contaminate every surface, and partially because there are plenty of health professionals who don't take hygiene seriously. Do you visit the hospital very often due to your conditions? Do you get sick after visiting? If yes to the first question and no to the second, then chances are you're already protecting yourself, or your body, enfeebled though it might be, is doing its job. Age is another factor: there are so many factors to determine if someone lives or someone dies during an outbreak.

Hopefully they’ll be able to confirm what’s going on with rapid testing in a day or so. I don’t think it will end well, though.For once, shit education isn't the main cause.

On today's episode of "The CCP is Fucking Incompetent", the Chinese laboratory that first mapped the genome of COVID-19 has been shut down by the Chinese Government. The reason why: Because they released the information before the CCP did.
The laboratory at the Shanghai Public Health Clinical Centre was ordered to close for “rectification” on January 12, a day after Professor Zhang Yongzhen’s team published the genome sequence on open platforms. It closed temporarily the following day.
The release of the data helped researchers develop test kits for the virus.
“The centre was not given any specific reasons why the laboratory was closed for rectification. [We have submitted] four reports [asking for permission] to reopen but we have not received any replies,” a source with the centre said, requesting anonymity because of the matter’s sensitivity.
“The closure has greatly affected the scientists and their research when they should be racing against the clock to find the means to help put the novel coronavirus outbreak under control,” the source said.

The laboratory is a Level 3 biosafety facility, the second highest level, and passed an annual inspection by the China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment on January 5. It also obtained the required credentials to conduct research on the coronavirus on January 24.
It was not clear whether the closure was related to the publishing of the sequencing data before the authorities.

The closure order was issued by the Shanghai Health Commission. Five telephone calls to officials at the commission seeking comment on the closure were not picked up. A fax sent to the commission requesting comment was not answered.
China’s National Health Commission announced hours after the release by Zhang’s team that it would share the genome sequence with the World Health Organisation. It later emerged that the information had been sent through the officially designated Wuhan Institute of Virology.
Coronavirus: WHO, experts fail to reach consensus on how deadly outbreak should be defined

Zhang’s team isolated and finished the genome sequence of the then-unknown virus on January 5, two days before China’s official announcement that mysterious pneumonia cases in Wuhan were caused by a hitherto unknown coronavirus.
The Shanghai centre reported its discovery to the National Health Commission on the same day and recommended “relevant prevention and control measures” be taken in public places, because the patient from whom the sample was collected had suffered very severe symptoms and the virus resembled a group previously found in bats.

The team made the finding public on January 11 after it saw that the authorities had taken no obvious action to warn the public about the coronavirus.
At the time, the public was told that no new cases had been reported in Wuhan since January 3 and there was no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission.
“It was not about any individual’s achievements. It’s about having biological test kits ready in face of a previously unknown respiratory disease, especially when a large part of the population [was] moving [across the country] during the Lunar New Year holidays,” said a source close to Zhang’s team, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

It shared the data on virological.org, an open platform for discussions, and GenBank, an open-access data repository, and said researchers were welcome to download, share, use and analyse the data.
Within a week of its publication, several companies in China announced that they had developed diagnosis kits for the virus.
The findings by Zhang’s team were published in the scientific journal Nature on February 3. The research said the virus sample was collected from a patient who showed symptoms of fever, dizziness and coughing and was admitted to a Wuhan hospital on December 26.
The Shanghai centre has a long-term cooperation relationship with Wuhan Central Hospital. The patient was identified as a 41-year-old male vendor who worked at the Huanan Wholesale Seafood Market in Wuhan, which was believed to be a key link of infections at the early stage of the outbreak.
The lab’s closure not only affected Zhang’s research but also studies by other scientists since it is an open facility, according to another researcher with knowledge of the matter.
“There have been applications from research institutes and universities to try drugs and compare the effects of different treatment and the development of vaccines, but [all these will have] to be turned down. Closing down the laboratory also affects the studying of the virus,” the researcher said.

- No reason was given for the closure of Shanghai facility, which released information about the virus ahead of authorities
- One source at the laboratory said the closure has hampered scientists’ research when they should be ‘racing against the clock’

Fuck, I just deleted a big huge sperg about the Prophecy of the Popes so I wouldn't get bitchslapped by the mods. Just know that the Prophecy is very likely a piece of shit.
I was worried that the media would hammer home the WE'RE ALL GONNA FUCKING DIE FROM CORONACHAN OMGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111" sperging until the entire fucking country raced to Costco and Walmart and stripped the shelves bare in imitation of those shitty disaster movies that used to be popular. Other posters have said that it's boomers going apeshit, the same generation that remembers The Day After and other 70s and 80s disaster movies where people race to the stores and just knock stuff into their carts willynilly with their arms.
If there is suddenly a massive traffic jam in every big city in America as all the boomertards try to flee to the countryside, you fucking own this motherfucker, CNN et al! Trump already hates your fucking guts, if you fuckers cause a mass panic the God Emperor is gonna haul your asses into court and then lock you away for a VERY FUCKING LONG time.
You wanna create a disaster so you can report on it in order to increase your ad budgets, you should remember a line from one of Glenn Beck's shitty novels: "What they all forgot was, once you unleash pandemonium onto the world you can't just easily whistle it back into the box."

What is it with Berlin and former DDR? There are bound to be some cases, at least in Berlin.
No idea why Berlin has zero cases. I think it's weird, too.
But the former DDR has much lower population density, less industry and isn't as diverse. That could be why.
