N. Korean officials say that COVID-19 can be beaten in one month

Sources in South Hamyong Province report that those suffering from flu-like symptoms for four days or more are taken to special facilities for observation

North Korean officials are suggesting that the country can “beat COVID-19” over the next month with exhaustive disease control efforts, Daily NK sources have reported.
Throughout North Korea, efforts to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus are taking place alongside the country’s “sanitation period,” which is aimed at beautifying the country and occurs annually in March.
“Disinfection vehicles and officials carrying out disinfection gear are seen all over the place,” a South Hamgyong Province-based source told Daily NK on Mar. 9. “The central authorities have increased the number of disease control workforce to help ease the burden of those already in the field.”
He added that it was “lucky that disinfectant developed by a hospital in Pyongyang is being supplied to disease control officials outside of Pyongyang.”
The source further reported that public buildings are being disinfected every other day and that certain factories are acquiring their own gear to disinfect their facilities.
North Korean state media has boasted that 30,000 disease control workers have been organized throughout the country to take part in disinfection campaigns. Media reports from the country also claim that the authorities are conducting educational sessions for the population about how to deal with the coronavirus.
“The officials at the sessions are saying that there are fewer cases of coronavirus infections in China to give hope to people,” the source said. “They are emphasizing that the next month is very important [for beating back the disease].”
China reported on Mar. 7 that the number of daily new infection cases had fallen below 50 for the first time.
In contrast, sources in Hamhung, a port city in South Hamgyong Province, reported that there is still no comprehensive information about how many infections have occurred in North Korea.
Even people who are suffering from seasonal colds, the flu or even just a fever are being quarantined in their houses, sources said.
Those who suffer from these symptoms for more than four days are reportedly taken to a special facility to be observed by medical staff for one month.
“The families of those who have been quarantined in the facilities must report their own health status to local medical staff,” one source in the city added.
 
2 things.
1-valencia actually suspended las fallas. The end is night, sound the bellfry! No but seriously I think no one expected that one, risk or not las fallas takes a lot of preparation and investment. And it was just a week away. This is gonna hurt (economically) I hope they say they postponed it to a few monts from now 'cause if not more than one's gonna panic for real. EDIT: And just as I said it news corrected they have indeed only been postponed. Fucking lol I think someone musta called them going "you can't actually say that you moron people will panic!" Just kek.

2-here's a video on how to make hand sanitizer out of glicerine (to keep your hands moist) water and 96° alcohol.

We are almost to 1000 cases in the US.

Don't be suprised if we see the numbers really pop off in the next week or so. It has obviously been spreading for weeks and testing has lagged behind.

I'm personally rather worried about the New York lockdown. Full blown quarantines just won't work in the states. Too many stupid and selfish people. Plus way too hard to manage large stretches of areas effectively due to sprawl and crawl. Also, be very careful about people using any hysteria for political gain and/or as a way to erode civil rights.

Shit is about to get real in the next two weeks with the current rates.

I dunno why people are claiming quarantines won't work. First of all they will never shut down the entire country. Just the major cities. Second off all Tyrone and his Gangsta Crip Disciples might try chimping out at your run of the mill cop trying to enforce the quarantine, but when the tanks start rolling into town only the dumbest of the dumb would try to fuck with military hardware. What is with the pessimism on this point? I'm sure at least half a dozen different alphabet soup agencies have been modeling lockdowns and quarantines for fucking decades now. IF there is one thing the federal government can do is oppress a large number of people. And it's not like our military is underfunded. This will be a great pretense to start rolling out and normalizing the coming police state. ♫ Deus Ex theme begins swelling in volume in the background.♫

Speaking of police states; I wonder if we can use all that fancy NSA spy tech for contact tracing....IIRC the Chinese did just that.
 
How come you never update us with how it is going in Iran?
Because the sort of retards who honestly think this thread is a useful source of information are the sort of people who believe propaganda that claims Sh'ia will lick shrines.

This thread has no actual use as information. It's just shitposting. The only thing worth saying on this topic is that initial responses were bad, because of the sanctions that the Zionist controlled government of 'America' imposes on Iran and the need to work with the Chinks as a result, and because of the excessive level of democracy. The Leader is starting to take control of important matters, and things are improving to the degree that they can when the puppets of the Zionists are doing 100% of what they can to murder every single Iranian.
It should be interesting to see whether tests are made available to attendees. Will regular CPAC attendees be considered valuable enough to be allowed to test, or is the reason they're emphasising that the carrier was hanging out in the backrooms to avoid needing to offer them tests?
And the answer is.. hell no. They weren't even told about the plaguebearer.

So they could call him a spy?

I don't have any use for his CIA/Saudi sperging but I wouldn't say a fucking thing if I lived in a place like Iran or China.
Nice picture of a drug dealer being hung, you mongaloid.
 
Can you quarantine in your own room? Get yourself a stack of paper plates, a microfridge, toaster, water and a microwave? And get an n-95 respirator for when you have to use the toilet?
I get where you're going with this and I really do appreciate it, but from a bedroom, I'd run out of supplies pretty quickly. If anyone I live with gets infected, the touch-contamination and air contamination isn't something that could be stopped or even circumvented. I've been preparing mentally for this for a long time now and have considered a lot of measures and scenarios. I'm okay with dying if it means separating the world's wheat from the chaff, but there are people who I'm afraid of hurting should that happen.

If/when I get sick, I'm going to wholesale dox myself here in case the military tries to cover up how they (pretty much intentionally) spread it to military families, especially one who self-isolated weeks in advance and who's family they forced to work at the hospital unmasked. FUN FACT: Said family works a job that has been officially confirmed to be one that can be worked from home.

I hope that I will one day be able to look back on this and call myself a drama-queen.
 
EVERYONE is lying about the number of infected.
Hey something occurred to me ....

I am no expert on this but I have a have an idea of how it works .....

Like, when we die you have a primary cause of death and mitigating factors.

For example:

75 year old White female:

Primary cause of death: respiratory failure
Complication of: viral pneumonia
Complication of: influenza virus, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Can someone help me out here? I am probably not doing this any justice.

So when death certificate time comes, and COVID 19 brings about the final end, isn't there some latitude?

For example:
Primary Cause of death: Complications of COVID 19
Secondary: viral pneumonia
Secondary: COPD

OR

Primary cause of death: COPD
secondary: COVID 19

Basically I suspect that stats might not necessarily be lying ....
See what I am asking/trying to express?

Problem is trying to cordon an area too big with too many people inside. The soviets couldn't cordon half of berlin and you think the USA can cordon all of NYC? Nah.

Aside from that, there's too many spread outbreaks at this point. When it was just china it made sense, at this point you can't close all of them without going full italy and quarantining EVERYTHING. Which most countries can't do without a lot of resistance, specially "muh land of duh free" USA.

What spain is doing is talking of "deaths WITH coronavirus" as opposed to deaths BY coronavirus so as to avoid trying to figure out what the primary cause was. I'd say that's the simplest way to avoid lying and what everyone should be doing, but the WHO has repeatedly told us we should be using chinese metric methods, so I'm guessing they've also been pressuring everyone else to lie. Thank fuck the ISCIII is led by sane people.

Even then you do have to take into account all the people that never even bother testing. We are dealing with many sources of bias, so no method will be perfect, this is just the least biased.

'Escape from New York' isn't actually the model for how to quarantine against pandemics.

The primary drive behind China's incredibly successful quarantine programme hasn't been rolls of razor wire. It's been shaming people who may be infected into restricting their exposure, and escalating to the point of forcing them to stay inside their apartments by barring their doors only when absolutely necessary.

You are correct, however, that the selfishness of Ammurricans is a big barrier that will stop the coronavirus or any other epidemic from being contained without serious political change.
 
1:15 p.m. Grand Princess expects to disembark all California passengers today: After confusion this morning, cruise passenger Neil Kran, a Sausalito resident, said the captain announced all California passengers were expected to be off-boarded today. New processing tents were set up outside the ship to speed up the process. Kran remained doubtful, though. “Plans change seemingly at random. We hope for the best but expect the worst,” he told The Chronicle. Some passengers have been calling 911 from their cell phones aboard the ship, Kran said. “Shows how desperate some people must be feeling,” he said.

1:15 p.m. Grand Princess crew members who tested positive not showing symptoms: Nineteen crew members who tested positive for COVID-19 were deemed asymptomatic and have not been disembarked from the ship, Princess Cruises officials said. The crew members were in isolation in their individual cabins Tuesday.

2:44 p.m. Newsom says Grand Princess disembarkment process to see “adjustments”: At a news conference, Gov. Gavin Newsom said the off-boarding process needs to be “stepped up.” The goal is to get 100 people off the ship every hour, but “that’s a work in progress.” He added that officials are trying to keep people safe and healthy. “We’re going to need to see an increase in those processes in order to turn this ship around — we don’t want to see it here for more than a week...any logistical operation with human beings, there’s an element that constantly requires adjustments.”

3:04 p.m. Sacramento County moves from containment to mitigation: People in Sacramento County who have had known contact with a confirmed coronavirus case will no longer be required to quarantine for 14 days, county health officials said. However, those who develop respiratory symptoms should stay home still. This policy comes as Sacramento County officials transition from a containment to mitigation strategy. A state health official said during a press conference with Gov. Gavin Newsom that this was the “appropriate” decision for the county because the 14-day protocol “no longer is effective.” This step will allow officials to use resources more broadly and focus on decreasing exposure and helping the most vulnerable populations.


I forgot to mention that also find it odd that base hospital staff are just today being ordered not to use PPE.
"focus on decreasing exposure and helping the most vulnerable populations" Yeah, I rate your post "optimistic".

EDIT: The live updates page I'm following still hasn't made a peep about the 12 confirmed cases already being kept in the base hospital. Hmmmm...

You guys are missing the forest for the trees. It's not about stopping the spread so much as it is slowing it down. Yes, people will squeeze through, yes people will disobey and chimp out, but most will stay in their homes and do as they are told. Most normies are too afraid/stupid to pirate a movie much less face down the federal government. Although frankly It's probably already too late.

Did you see that one video circulating of those guys licking what looked like a chromed fence/grate inside a shrine? You wouldn't happen to know the actual context of the video?

I would be shocked if it was actually at the site that was claimed in Qom. Sufis do that sort of thing on occasion.
 
These are the people who have lived in a dystopian hellhole their entire lives, and yet they still found the courage to stand up for what's right. Why can't anyone outside of China do the same?
Because of Asian face-saving culture. Asking them to give real non-manipulated numbers and receiving them are two entirely separate things. The entire country could be burning and they will either Baghdad Bob flat out lie and/or find some beaurocrat to assign all the blame to then summarily execute. Pressing them further will only increase the lies and the executioner's workload. It won't get you truthful answers.
 
Yay, our health minister tested positive for Wu Flu!


In a way this could be a good thing. The more high profile people who contract the virus and recover without incident, the harder it is for the media to maintain an apocalyptic narrative.
 
As per the press conference going on right now teleconferencing with a doctor is now covered under Medicaid/Medicare. It's 2020, should have been a thing years ago.

Pfft, you aint seen nothin' yet! By this time next month the government will be subsidizing the teledildonics industry to help keep us all indoors.
Thanks for that. All the recipes I've seen use aloe vera and one of our at risk family members is allergic to aloe vera.
FYI the aloe vera is used as a moisturizer. Worst case scenario buy a small spray bottle and just pour some isopropyl in there and just use that, but keep some moisturizer handy to keep your hands from getting too fucked up.
 
So I’m hearing a lot of chatter this morning and I’m trying to vet a couple possible sources. Here’s what I’m getting for the Seattle area...another possible death at a senior facility in the Ravenna neighborhood as well as one at Boeing. If anyone gets confirmation of either please post back.
I just got my answer on Ravenna.
