I know some of you disagree with me when I think this shit is getting way overblown, so I bring a peace offering
Thank you for this. I was starting to doubt we needed this virus. Cuck worried his wife will be uncomfortable camming for her bf while he's at home with coronavirus is peak 🤡 🌎

Did anybody else expect him to start coughing?
 
I called 311 and I'm calling my PCP to let him know but seems tests are being limited to first responders, people seriously ill and those coming from countries with known and widespread outbreaks. The CDC really dropped the ball on testing kits and not just because I have an interest in this but because we don't know how prevalent it is among the general public. In a crowded city like NYC where everyone takes the train and millions pass through hubs like Penn Station, Grand Central and JFK/La Guardia every day it's probably spreading as I'm typing.

Ultimately, we take the world we have, not the one we want to have. Personally, I'm working off the premise that even I don't have the virus, it's best to treat it as though I do and just hunker down in my apartment until the symptoms are gone. If the best they can give me is "not the flu", then I ain't got much else to work with.

But yes, it's probably quite widespread at this point. Then any of this bickering about mortality rates and whatnot will be solved, and most everyone will be happy, I'm sure.
 
Also the fact that the symptoms and what it does to you is up for debate too. Is it true this shit causes cytokine storms?

Apparently, otherwise China would not be testing novel drugs to prevent and stop it.

"China is hoping that some older drugs could stop severe cytokine release syndrome (CRS), or cytokine storms, an overreaction of the immune system which is considered a major factor behind catastrophic organ failure and death in some coronavirus patients. "

 
Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH) Reports 1st Presumptive Case of Coronavirus

Arkansas got their first recently, as well. Provided that this Forrest County man (south MS for reference) does actually have it, this leaves Alabama as the only Southern state without its first reported case.
 
Wuflu made it to Capitol Hill. Sen. Cantwell (WA) staffer tests positive.

Always interesting to see who gets a test and who does not. I guarantee this staffer didn't meet current CDC testing criteria.

It's like we're living in some really shitty ripoff of Deus Ex. Instead of nano-augmentations, genetically engineered attack animals and Ambrosia vaccines only for the connected, it's just smartphones, GMO soy and virus testing kits.

Washington state yet again fucks over america. I can only pray that's where the zombie apocolypse takes a foot hold and wipes them all clean before we napalm the area flat into pure hellscape.
