Man well rip to me, I work in downtown Atlanta and I take the MARTA. Pour me out ones boys.

If the diseases that normally coat MARTA haven't killed you yet, and you haven't caught bubonic plague from the smelly hobo eyeing you from the front of the car, you're probably okay for Corona-Chan. Just remember to not lick anything in the train. Especially not the smelly hobo.
 
i know people will say you're overhyping it, andthats true, but obviously, for the first time in a long ass time (can anyone say the last time this happened?) the supply chain is getting fucked massively, and for the first time in a decade, mass layoffs will happen, and lots of shit is getting canceled. If you remember the job market in 2008-2010, its that again. But happening much quicker. basically its not the end of the West, but its a punch in the stomach or maybe a concussion. And the amount of public events going on from now until May is worrying, For the first time since Trump was alive, there will be shortages in the West, but things will move on. Basically your country will basically be feeling the way you feel when you come down from meth, it feels awful, and you feel like you're dying, but you will survive and move on.

(Unless you're in BRICS in which case you are fucked, or if you have loved ones over 70+)

*Also Trump should be trying to make the market go to shit now, he should only start flooding the market once april hits, he needs the dow to be at its lowest in April, because he can't have two down quarters, the media will be frying his ass. Although using the flu would be a great excuse for a recession)

OK, so I lived long enough to see the twenty first century, and instead of hover cars I get a giant body shield. What a depressing timeline.
It was only a matter of time when the dumb asses start cumming out and spew their marketing Jism out to the public. Sure as shit not going to wear one of these things.

Now the bread pudding I made started with dried up french Bread that was in the fridge and the second picture is the cooked product before adding the Vanilla/Brown Sugar Vodka sauce to it to Carmelized it even further on some of the pans under low heat. I made a non Vodka version of the sauce as well.

Guaranteed to be better than any of what you can get at a restaurants and a whole lot cheaper per serving. Who says you can't eat well during a crisis? Well fuck that shit. If Corona-Chan decides to give me a lap dance I'm going to fuck that Bitch silly.

And do it with style.:smug:

Maybe it's a silly question but how exactly do places like the CDC find out if a virus mutated?
Not an expert, but all microbes are constantly mutating. What I think that report did was get the genome at the Washington state virus sample, compared the mutations with the original Wuhan samples and using known mutation rates, figure out when they have diverged. If I am not mistaken, similar analysis have done for figuring out the relationships between plants and animals, albeit longer, geological times, since obiviously they don't reproduce as fast (e.g. minutes vs years).

But again, not an expert, better check with @Otterly, @EmuWarsVeteran and (if he comes out of his hidy hole) @Secret Asshole .

BTW, Leafland is now asking all people coming from Iran to self-quarantine for 14 days. Because if you quarantine the virus, they win.
 
More people returned from Italy with the coronavirus via airport. Honestly, I don't know this is good or bad at the point. They can get cured/self-quarantine after a visit to the doctor at the risk of further spreading it. Why is just simply staying at the location so hard instead of just selfishly going "I want to be at my home city" and giving innocent people the virus?
 
Were you literally born post 2014? If H1N1 didn't turn the world into an apocalyptic shitshow, if Ebola didn't annihilate the entirety of undeveloped Africa, the Coronavirus won't either.
I remember when Ebolachan starred in her very own pedowood blockbuster because of the hype.
 
This guy sounds like the YouTuber who predicts that Germany's central bank is about to collapse every two weeks. At least Peter Schiff -- the guy who predicted 2008 back in 2006 -- and Stefan Molyneux don't fantasize about details.

Why didn’t our government screen them, quarantine them, test them etc?

There are stories of people returning without being asked where in Italy or south Korea they travelled as of just yesterday. The cdc and government doesn’t care.

I chalk it up to them wanting this to spread.

Maybe I can convince the rats to protect me from the infected on the MARTA.

They are making the person know who was studying abroad in Italy, fly back to the states and "quarantine" at home where he won't be allowed to school for 14 days. That means living with his parents who I seriously doubt will respect the idea of quarantine in any way.

The job market is at saturation and companies aren't imploding like in 2008. The Great Recession was a decade in the making with companies operating on large margins and betting on the subprime mortgage market. There's literally no comparison. Also there's going to be a shortage of some cheap chinesium crap, which will be picked up by other factories as I've stated. The only legitimate shortages we might have to worry about will be drugs like antibiotics, which even in the worst case estimates, shortages won't peak until April and by August supply will be stable again.

Your assertion of shortages not being a thing in the West is totally out of touch. In the 70s and 80s the US nearly ran out of gasoline entirely, and more recently Russia fucking with the gas supply to Europe has caused massive headaches, both of those things are more important to the global and local economies than cheap chinese consumer bullshit.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm actually willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. Thanks to China fucking up and wasting the early days, people were already traveling without knowing and the virus has a 1-2 weeks incubation period. Everywhere is already past the point of trying to find the typoid mary and so on but all we know it's from Wuhan. All we can do is just (self-)quarantine each other but human stupidity will always fuck something up to some extent.
