There really is no middle ground between "it's just the flu bro" and "WE'RE ALL GOING TO FUCKING DIE AND IT'S ALL DRUMPF'S FAULT!!!", is there?
It's probably because people actually have fun being all doomer, while denial is a coping mechanism.

But the end result is the same either way, nobody wants to actually handle the crisis, or I guess crises now.
 
It's bizarre seeing these headlines saying "young person with no health problems dies of coronavirus" then you click on the article and it's a guy who weighed about 300lbs
Reminds me of the wholes "AIDS doesn't discriminate" fiasco in the 80s. In both cases, you have the media deciding that fear-mongering is better than hurting certain people's feelings.
 
Current situation in Sweden:

6000+ confirmed cases. 350 dead.

What we basically have now is a continous "danger zone" consisting of the Stockholm, Sörmland and Östergötland counties. In all of these, more than 1/1000 inhabitants are infected. This area have almost 75% of all deaths so far.

In other parts of the country the situation looks signficantly better.
I hope it gets really bad there. One of my bitch relatives residing in Sweden stole inheritance rightfully mine. Now, if the bitch croaks, I get whatever she has and everything she looted from me. Thank you Corona-Chan!

That german scientist also confirmed the loss of taste/smell symptom through that study. He probably had the biggest test group of them all (in the west) so far. Give me your little rainbows if you prefer doom and gloom but I do think it might not be as infectious as people think. This might also be because I remember a time where some doomers long before that word existed were churning out papers claiming HIV was airborne. Yes, really. I do remember people religiously cleaning dorknobs because they were afraid to catch the AIDS. This is an uncertain time for all of us, and there is a lot of fear. Also, think about one thing - if you were a virologist advising a guy like Trump in how to proceed, would you eer on the side of caution in your estimation or would you give him the idea that it might all not be as bad as it seems backed up by absolutely no data because none is really available yet? Then think about the implications of that.

Germanys reinfection rate has also fallen to one as of Robert Koch Institute today, meaning that the measures taken are working here. If it goes below one reinfections will collapse the same way they blew up.
 
Seems that Walmart is going to try to ban selling "non-essential" items like garden supplies, including seeds. It's April. This will not go over well.

More than that, but apparently just in Vermont. They keep this shit up, gonna be problems. Just a matter of time before people start seriously resisting.



 
Kazakh update: slowdown
Allegedly, we're starting to get less and less new cases in Almaty.
General update:
460 cases, 29 recoveries, no new deaths.
So far, we seem to be handling this surprisingly well, for a post-USSR country.
 
They have to go to the hospital first and get tested. To the hospital which is falling apart because of all the coronavirus cases. In the ER, which, again, is falling apart because its filled to the brim with people about to die and gasping for air. Nigga who going to test them? They also have a long list of at least 45 conditions they won't treat so again, I ask, what the fuck are they even doing there?
Help arrives to lend even a small amount of relief (including expertise/access to the US Navy command structure) to the people on the ground and surprise surprise it isn't good enough for New Yorkers and the media.

"WAAAAAAAH! WHY ISN'T IT MORE HELP!? FUCK YOU!"

Okay fine. Send the ship somewhere else and quit bitching as your city collapses. Federalism is a bitch and the national government doesn't have to help bail out your lazy state government.

Jesus fucking Christ you New Yorkers make it so hard to be sympathetic toward your situation. Someone is trying to help, it isn't what you expected and you complain complain complain. People complained when the US Navy offered the ships, they complained that the ships were going to take too long to arrive, and now that the ships are there you are still complaining. Shut your mouth, you're going to get infected if you keep flapping your jaw.
 
United Nations wants 10% of entire planet’s annual income in fund for coronavirus response

Fuck that you piece of shit, the WHO and the UN Actually let it all happen by mishandling every fucking thing from A to Z and you would want these piece of shit to handle anything ?



At least the article keep it real :


"United Nations and World Health Organization helped to create the pandemic, says expert Steven Mosher, president of the Population Research Institute, noted that the UN’s World Health Organization (WHO) helped to create the pandemic by repeating communist Chinese government’s false propaganda denying the health risks of COVID-19, and said he was against giving them or the UN in general any additional money for the crisis."

The UN and WHO should be considered China's millitary operatives, look at what the UN handled China on a silver plate in south Africa in terms of rare earth these past 50 - 70 years of operation down there and all the report of women and child abuse / rape the UN soldiers have been charged by the past, it's hundred of complaints and a lot of them have gone through and have been proven !

Rate me mad but This is a RACKET on the WORLD as if they weren't part of this shit and shouldn't be , FOR THEIR OWN GOOD doing something for their own safety. THIS IS HOW A MAFIA OPERATES "gimme money and i'll protect you, not like i created the situation you are in.

HOLY SHIT ! FUCK EM !

Talk about giving a shotgun to a toddler to shoot a bee in the dark in front of a row of puppies.

Molon labe.
 
A moment of brevity.

I see Predator, I go "Oh hey, that's nifty,"

I see Guyver, I go "Aw shit mang, good taste."

I see Dorohedoro, I go "Based."


On the topic at hand, my town has been, well, a ghost town lately cuz of the plague. I've been stuffed inside my home for about 4 weeks now, and I'm supposed to be taking online courses soon. Honestly, I think they should just close all the fucking schools for the year and continue when this shit is manageable. I'm stocked up on food, but I already miss the taste of fast food. Seeing A&W and KFC ads on tv just makes me nostalgic for the days when I didn't have to worry about uber-plagues that TOTALLY weren't made by the Chinese, no way!

My parents are doing fine, but my poor mother is starting to crack a bit. She works out a bunch now, and has been SUPER cautious about any groceries that come into the house; we can't even touch them for a few days because the bug might be on it. My dad is doing fine, and surprisingly still has his job, considering all the hubbub. I myself have been fine, considering I don't mind much the fact that I get to do nothing but play vidya and watch movies now. I do talk with my friends online, and so far they've all been doing fine as well.

The Wu-pocalypse so far has been cozy, but I think I can see the cracks forming on the edge.

These clowns have some real nerve that is for sure. How about this, we can give them some cash for their swiss bank accounts if they hand over Tederos and that Canadian Cuck Boy. We will let them loose naked in New York City and play a game to see if they can make it out alive.
 
New York state reports 10,482 new cases of coronavirus and 397 new deaths in morning update, raising total to 102,863 cases and 2,935 dead
that's what, two 9/11s worth now.
 
Stars and Stripes just published this on the Theodore Roosevelt situation.

You know, if the Navy wanted to get rid of the captain for making them look bad, there was so many ways they could have done it that didnt involve...making them look bad. Like jesus, have him report to the CNOs office for a reprimand, wait 6 months to shuffle him off to a desk on shore to await inevitable retirement.

Definitely scratching my head at the decision to just up and relieve him from Duty post haste. It's going to make the investigation into this a shit show. Not a good look for the navy.
 
All the articles i see are bashing herd immunity, but i dont see any other way cases go down.
They're technically right to be bashing it, but I bet they don't understand the reason for all this lockdown and "flatten the curve" stuff. Herd immunity by exposure to an ongoing infection doesn't work; all you do is guarantee that the disease becomes endemic in the population, with periodic epidemics as unexposed populations grow over time. That doesn't matter though, because "herd immunity" isn't actually the goal. It's just better slogan than "slowing the infection rate to a level that prevents the health services being overwhelmed before we get an effective long-term treatment solution".

The only way to guarantee herd immunity to a disease is to vaccinate everyone who can tolerate the vaccine before they catch the disease, which obviously needs a vaccine to exist.
