From a cursory search, I didn't see any mention of transes cooking plastic bag soup. It's fake, rev up those 🗑's

Yesterday was the best day for archiving in the thread so far. Thanks everyone, it's helps a lot for putting the GitHub together!

Fuck Canada for closing their borders:

Oh Shit! forgot this




This is all, I don't know what to say. Everyone is dropping like flies.

Manny Pacquiao said he's "not afraid to die" to help Filipinos during the coronavirus pandemic, according to the Manila Bulletin.


Speaking of Philippines here's a video of a Philippine religious song in English showing the cases of the Coronavirus spread:


I allways question everything and i've saw a few weird videos going around like these :




Has anyone took the time to visit your local hospital yet to report on this weird shit ? Not even asking to enter in them... just look around if there are so much people needing to be tested / treated outside as news says they are "overwhelmed" with waves of patients.... Maybe these are just country side / without a real need for patients right now and just in standby for the waves incoming tho.

Now it got me curious i'm going to check at hospital too tomorrow.



Ok, so apparently these letters went out to UPS drivers in a handful of states today.

Notably ~ "Please keep this letter with you for additional TRAVEL AUTHORIZATION. On page two of this letter, we have provided guidance in the event you are questioned by government authorities."

Also, this was WA Gov. Jay Inslee's press conference today (spoiler: shelter in place announcement).


I just realized I forgot meme and funny news recap so let's get to it.

-In barcelona idiots get infected via orgy. Why do people do this?!

-in madrid, cops detain 2 teens fucking on the streets, the teens explain that with their parents home they haven't been able to even masturbate since the quarantine started and they decided since the streets were empty, well you know, then the teens proceed to try to argue sex is a basic necessity. It didn't work but the cops got a laugh.

-and talking about cops. Seems they're multiclassing into comedian. Here we have another cop monologue
I don't have time to translate everything but best part is when he claims Pikachu sent him a letter to narrate to the kids then proceeds to read it. And I quote: "Pika pi pika pika, pika pika pi. Pi pika pika. And this part is boldened and in quotes, pika pika pi pi." Seeing that come out of a cop car is just beautiful.

-and we also got a text meme proclaiming "reminder than thanks to staying home there's trillions of coronavirus particles that didn't find a host and died on the streets. Gotta count enemy losses to heighten the morale of the troop."

Also, don't eat live fucking rats.



Can't download the video for some reason.
There was something weird with this video. I had to try a couple of different downloaders to grab it.


And Cuomo is sperging now. Yes the Feds have 20,000 vents, but CDC couldn't find them and now they need to be refurbished. And you're complaining they "only" sent 400 yesterday. Nigga, you can't just snap your fingers and make complex equipment magically appear. Do you want shit that works or not?

He's vacillating between shitting the bed today and then in the same sentence talking about how you can hook 2+ people up to one ventilator. If you can hook up multiple people to ventilators and repurpose existing anesthesia equipment, and you already have 5,000, have another 7,000 coming and are going to be getting more, and then doubling up on that, why the fuck should the Feds give NY the entire stockpile!

He's banking on not having multiple peaks at the same time, but the Left Coast is an open air sewer and doesn't have testing sorted out unlike NY, so no one knows whats really going on there. Will King Andrew take responsibility for deaths in CA because he took the very limited testing numbers at face value and then, oops sorry I didn't think it was gonna blow up at the same time! Of course not. But the Feds have to think about that.

Give me the fedora, idgaf but fucking A Cuomo you were doing so good :stress:

Now That's What I Call Music! Has a new album out....


So it's a gag, obviously but a bit of humour helps.

If anyone's never come across them before, Now That's What I Call Music! Is a compilation album that's been popular in the UK for a good 37 years, and 30 years in the USA.

Ole Ralph is talking again, as we are on the subject of local leadership taking the piss


Update from Dr. John

Says loss of sense of smell may well be the first sign of infection, so..
but with scented candles.

Also, confirms that CoV kills fat men.

Sorry if this has been posted already, but I really wanted to share this video about the pandemic:


In another topic, I wished the media would focus more on those who recovered rather than going overboard reporting the numbers of infected and dead people. I still kind of feel that way. However, I am genuinely worried about this pandemic. Especially since my home is in lockdown and quarantine mode and I don't want my mother, who is in her 60s, to potentially get it.

KMFDM - Virus
Electric Six - Infected Girls
Church of the Cosmic Skull - Everyone's Going To Die
Accept - Life's A Bitch
Blue Oyster Cult - (Don't Fear) The Reaper
Billy Joel - New York State of Mind

Also, this shows up in my suggested viewing... apologies if it's already been posted earlier today. Tried to check, but this thread grows like a new page every hour.

Should be interesting to see how this ages.

Putin is using Russia's success to glorify himself.


Meanwhile, Russians literally social distance as a lifestyle.

Only "reinfections" ever happened in china. So it's safe to say either they weren't real reinfections or the conditions there are so shit people basically don't have an immune system.
I'd be willing to bet that has more to do with shitty tests that throw false negatives than actual reinfection.
 
Thats a real good fucking question. Doomers and some articles suggest you dont build immunity. But over here in burger land all the public info says if you catch the wu flu and dont actually die and manage to get rid of it then youre fine... So yeah like I said; good fucking question.

there has to be some time of immunity else you'd just die from it, 100% of the time.

Not sure if that's what you wanted, the link is funny.
 
I'm looking forwards to seeing them start testing Americans who aren't showing symptoms. A lot of us have been really weirdly sick over the last three months and we're wondering if we've already had it. If we did, maybe we can start going back to work or something.
That would have to wait for an antibody test, I'm not sure if there even is one.

Apparently golf courses and vineyards are considered essential services in Oklahoma now. Since those are mostly boomer activities I guess I won't complain too much about it.

This whole debacle has informed me that apparently the word 'essential' is very much open to interpretation and basically now means whatever the fuck someone wants it to mean.

Just a random non-specialized opinion for what it is worth ....

From what I have read here and there, influenza viruses, for example, have been documented since ancient times. There are mentions of waves of illnesses that somewhat resemble the flu.

We are born with the accumulation of immunities against crap that is in the human environment, and has been since forever, because our mother's passed their immunities onto their daughters and sons. So babies are NOT born with an immunological blank structure. They build their own immunities, based on what they inherit through the umbilical cord.

For example, when you bring home a newborn, and open the refrigerator near by, there is a massive "poof" of all kinds of molds and bacteria in there. Unless there is some serious issue there, baby should not die in 5 hours from being overgrown with bacteria and mold spores.

So being that this corona virus is so new, we don't have immunities against an entire family of viruses, over long periods of time, that we do against influenza or rhinoviruses, etc.

So I am a bit skeptical about some projected "herd immunity." It is also not the chickenpox, where kids get exposed to it and they are (supposedly) immune thereafter. I think that old-timers and republicans are hoping for a chicken-pox-.like immunity so that life can go on as usual and they won't die, but I am not going to hold my breath ... as long as I am still breathing, of course.

Basically no matter who you are, life is pretty much going to suck in some way, from now on. Brace yourself.

We will cope though. Life will continue, but unless there is some sort of broad immunity that develops, or a vaccine emerges, this condition stands to maim or kill a sizeable percent of the population within the next few years.
 
It won't be a problem if he declares all the cash he receives on his self assessment. Are you implying he might be a tax dodger and it's going to bite him in the arse? That's not unfair, that's karma.
You heartless Tory bastard. What about the burglars? Can't go out robbing houses when everybody's home all day. And the poor shoplifters now that retail stores are closed. They'll starve in the street.

I understand that there will be outliers, but the system needs to be built for the vast majority.

- Live on benefits or grants: housing benefit, sickness benefit other NEET stuff. Your income won't change. You don't need a £1000 a month bonus while the productive parts of society work to fix things.
- Have a non-essential job. Your employer is very unlikely to be sacking you (we were talking about the UK here). Your employer continues to pay you, possibly at reduced rate subsidised by the government.
- Have an essential job. You're out working your arse off to keep us fed and healthy while I kick a ball around the garden. You do not need to be punished for this, even in the differentials. You deserve a bonus.
- Self employed, or recently made unemployed. Emergency supplement based on recent declared income.
- Other fixed income, retirees etc. Your income won't change.

- Drug dealers , buskers, cash in hand dodge pots, the bottom 1% who fall through the cracks. I don't know . Some sort of direct emergency assistance that you register for, and you explain why you don't fit into one of the main 5 categories. Maybe food stamp type stuff. don't really care. You're unlikely to be trying to pay your mortgage or feed a family.

The point of this magic money is to partially replace people's normal income, to keep the mechanics of the economy going. It's not to usher in this magic UBI world where we just like, take all the money from the 1% and then like nobody has to work for corporate fascist bastards.

Giving up on this now, because I've noticed I get narky and MOTI later in the day. Participating in this thread has brought out my inner sperg.
