Wuhan Coronavirus: Megathread - Got too big

  • 🔧 At about Midnight EST I am going to completely fuck up the site trying to fix something.

I believe the concept of entire states being told to "shelter in place" is not warranted. Am speaking only for the USA.

Does anyone really believe people on farms, outside urban areas, are going to "shelter in place"? I don't. They'll just go live their lives, go to town as needed. Also believe a certain number of people living in cities/suburbs are doing the same.

From where I sit, and I'm in a "shelter in place" state, the thing is very porous. See plenty of people shopping. Plenty of others on "essential" business. Another poster from England mentioned numbers of people going outside to enjoy early spring sunshine.

President Trump says this situation may last 10 or 12 weeks. No, it cannot. Americans aren't Chinese. Americans will mostly put up with it for two or three weeks but after that the resistance will grow quicker than the government can handle it. Looking at the stats, the numbers in the USA are still dwarfed by the "regular" flu.

Believe what's needed is for someone to look at a map of where the largest number of cases are concentrated. Going to be in cities, but just parts of those cities. Believe locking just those areas down should be as effective as locking down entire states.

Some say, "Oh, you can spread it without symptoms." Isn't that why people are asked to do "social distancing"? Believe someone needs to review the illness and death rates by age group. Far as I know the deaths tend to be those over 60, and/or those with other complicating physical conditions. Children and students 0-25 don't seem to be real affected.

Gonna need to get realistic on this real soon. We'll need to accept a certain level of risk in order to continue on without crumping as a nation. Gotta start using some common sense. We need to stop running scared as a nation, which we have been doing at least since 9-11. Not possible to live with all the bad things held at bay. Not realistic to live in fear of every little fucking thing.

If the Americans of the Great Depression and World War II could see today's America, they would laugh at us. They had to deal with much worse things, also things not of their own making. They dealt with it and kept on going. They didn't believe they had the luxury of "sheltering in place" from the problems out there.

Bottom line on this - isolate the hot spots and let everyone else get back to work/school.

Moving to other parts of the world...if you look at a map you now see the red dots of ChiCom virus sprinkled around Africa and Latin America, not to mention Russia. These dots are going to grow in size and number. In many places all that can be done will be to provide the sick person a bed, food, and water or send them home. We will be able to do little or nothing to help. People will need to help each other.

Now that rapid testing has been approved hopefully mass testing and the relief from lockdowns can happen. I also completely agree that I don't see Americans putting up with this past a few weeks.
 
NYC: coronavirus cases confirmed 9664 cases 1/3 of all cases in the USA., 63 dead. 44 and under, no deaths. 70 and older are 35% of cases which require hospitalized.

I was going to go out and pick up an order at Target but I canceled and had them deliver it instead. There were no windows open for fresh food (or any same/next day) delivery Sunday or Monday.
And if you include the inner-most suburbs it gets up to around 40/45 percent!
 
Yes, they list suicide as violent crime or murder for the United States if they use a gun. We have guns so we don't have to put up with a dictatorship.
Read ALL the stats. Only 1 of them is affected by that, the rest aren't. Specially not rape. Also your suicide rate is also off the roof compared with spain https://www.nationmaster.com/nmx/ranking/total-suicide-rates fuck you make most of the civilized world look like it wants to live!

Look I'm not saying there's anything inherently wrong with the country. On the spoiler i mentioned I explained where the polarization came from (imho) and what should be done about it. But you need to accept the polarization exists and is an issue. Before it's too damned late. Because as I explained on that spoiler if you don't fix it soon it can grow into an unstoppable country-breaking force, and as harshly as i critizice you, that's only because i want you to survive and thrive, because I dread what'd happen when someone finally overtakes you. I dare say you're the best world leaders we could have. Xcept for maybe britain.

EDIT:
You don't have niggas

We are the country with the most niggas in europe! Fuck, if you count sand niggas as niggas we were once ruled by them!

EDIT 2: We don't have any niggas of any kind on the government now doe... makes you think.

It's not the strongest position, but it's not necessarily the worst move for him to start a public feud with Trump. Now he can blame Trump for literally anything by saying he is withholding assistance out of spite due to their feud. Perhaps the best move would have been not to be a no-talent ass clown, but you gotta play the hand you're dealt.
He's term-limited anyway. All about that legacy/sticking to his guns now.
 
Sorry if someone already mentionned that clip but the guys of China Uncensored talk of 2nd wave of infections.

There's one Youtuber who isn't agree with what China Uncensored said.
'China Uncensored' is part of 'New Tang Dynasty Television', which is a Falun Gong propaganda outlet like the 'Epoch Times'.

I find it extremely funny when people who blame the CCP for the traditional behavior of Chinese people consider propaganda outlets run by Falun Gong- a sex cult which promotes the rejection of scientific medicine and other kooky pagan ideas- credible.

Which spoiler? The one I responded to was talking about an old guy getting buried?
 
Here's an article on how how Taiwan is handling Coronavirus

And here's what they're doing in Hong Kong

I don't know how the United States would even get started implementing these kinds of things. We can't even get people to voluntarily stay home and watch Netflix when they've tested positive; I can't imagine people lining up voluntarily to let the cops monitor their movements 24/7.

Entirely irrelevant.
You need this-
 

These stay at home orders are so fucking limp. They only declare them so they look like they're doing something productive.
it works though, you'd be surprised how many people aren't willing to break laws, even unenforceable ones. think about every idiot who never looks into this shit. they're the ones staying at home.

FOUR FUCKING TRILLION DOLLARYDOOS

Just this month we spend more than we did on both middle east wars. knowing that, we fought those wars really well and
I had to break the news to a friend of mine today that inflation is coming back in a big way.

(:_(

you think thats bad, just wait for the boomers who survive this saying "why you need to raise the minimum wage again? you just got $15" I'd be surprised if we don't have a $25-30 minimum wage in most parts of the country before this decade is over.

Jesus Bill de Blasio beclowned himself on meet the press today. Shrieking for army intervention. Intervene to do what Bill? Governor Hogan all but called him an idiot lol.

Billy doesn't give a shit, he has less than 2 years left. he already knew at the beginning of the month that the DNC isn't going to help him after he endorsed Bernie. Bills basically just waiting it out, he knew the media would start calling him out after endorsing bernie. Bill was always rather a terrible mayor, but after 20 years of republican rule, he really didn't have to do a damn thing. He's basically like a kid with a trust fund, this is the first time he's not had the mainstream press and public on his side.


At this rate, it is foolish for Cuomo to not use his powers to suspend De Blasio's powers as mayor.

De Blasio has been a figure of absolute destruction when it comes to this pandemic. His actions have literally made everything worse, and even Cuomo agrees.

If Cuomo wants to look like a hero to his constituents, now is the time to do it. Kick De Blasio out on his ass, for crying out loud.
the problem is as bad as De Blasio is, he's the best guy in power in the city right now. unless cuomo wants to bring back bloomberg, taking out Billy means having a whole line of other even worse retards to deal with
 
Now that rapid testing has been approved hopefully mass testing and the relief from lockdowns can happen. I also completely agree that I don't see Americans putting up with this past a few weeks.

And this is why I get the feeling America is going to get quarantined a lot longer than the rest of the world, and with a way higher body count... which the numbers are already supporting as the US is in a marathon race with Italy right now. Because they'd rather kill everyone they come in contact with before sacrificing convenience. How many people still dont even believe this is happening, maybe when dead americans are stacked up like pringles outside their front door? Everyones going on lock so we don't get to that point, hopefully.
