I thought judging by skin color was a bad thing?
We need more diversity in a possible world ending virus reaction team. Not the most qualified. If we're all going to die then goddammit lets be equal. BTW my state medical adviser is a troon. Very professional though, can't blame her for that.
 
The evolution of this thread is fucking hilarious of people showing up in waves.

First Wave: People following this situation since day 1, Posting lots of ground zero footage and reports on Chinese quarantine and lockdown response with solid scientific information being posted.

Second Wave: Doomsday preppers of all sorts some big some small sharing tips on recipes and what kinda stuff they need to stock up on some even bragging about how they were gonna be the next survivorman hunter with their stockpile of guns and ammo while having little to no experience actually hunting anything outside of KF reaction score. Lots of vids posted about panic buyers. This wave of posters cluttered the fuck out of the thread.

Third Wave The Current One: Lots of new accounts from people whom never posted in this thread talking about the inconvenience of the virus, Super political cock measuring about Trump either doing a good or a bad job. Saddled in-between that there are a few religious nut cases who act concerned about the virus but still go to a crowded church and post bible excerpts complaining when people make fun of their religion.

I miss the first wave days that is where I learned the most and had the more interesting people posting good information now I got to slog through like 50-100 posts every time I log on to get to the good posts in the middle.
i miss early on when you could actually keep up with the thread, now it's fucking impossible.
 

In this latest edition of HELL IS FREEZING OVER 2020!!! TSA will begrudgingly allow you to carry 12 ounces of hand sanitizer on flights.
Amazing how it takes a plague to make these jerkoffs let things go back to how they used to be, if only for a while.

Stephen King must have had his head up his ass at the White House press conference. The Surgeon General is black. Saw two female doctors, one white, one Indian, making presentations.

Anyway, only an utter retard would raise a concern about the makeup of the team. Who gives a fuck, as long as the team is effective? Face it, the WuFlu neither knows nor cares about the race/sex of the person it infects.

I quit reading Stephen King's books long ago.
 
I take it back actually; I blame them for landing themselves here in the first place. Who the fuck goes on a cruise after the Diseased Princess fiasco, much less with the same company? It's their own fault that they're in this mess and it's their fault that they're contaminating the base. I'm starting to low-key hope that their stay here ends in them either starving, dying of WuFlu or rioting and getting a hot lead shower from Security Forces. Just thinking about what they've done makes me genuinely mad on the internet. Between their stupid asses and the exceptional military brass who never cared about containment, I'm probably going to die inside of two months.

Lol calm down

Understandable, because things are happening more and more quickly now. Likely to be that way for a while. I don't try to read every prior post when coming in for the day, maybe a page or two before. All that can really be done.
 
Aren't there manual ventilators? Like those blue bag things. Not that it's piratical but I would think family members would glady volunteer to manually pump there loved ones bag.

Absolutely it's better than nothing! It does need a bit of training, though. And oxygen.

Yesterday I raised the question of a thread for providing advice beyond merely telling people to buy lots of beans or whatever, relating to how one can survive in a pandemic where there basically is no longer a functioning medical system. I think there was only one good, pertinent response relating to positioning one's bed, practicing deep deliberate coughing, etc.

Have you seen the Facebook group, BTW? Please tell me what you think of it. It's linked in my post history a few posts back.

what scares me more than anything is Italy
italy's numbers:
17660 infected
1266 dead
1328 serious
1439 recovered
that's almost the same death to recovered. holy fucking shit, it's basically fucking ebola except it's now spread globally and there's no way to stop it and we're still in the early phase where hospitals and medicine exists. once shit get's really bad the hospitals will be filled and medicine will run out then the deaths will be even higher.

I don't use boomerbook, too political. So I come here the most apolitical place on the internet. But i'll check it out I guess.
