China Wuhan Virus Pandemic

[Zachowon]

If you look at the number of cases in the US, and the deaths, and not look at the general US population. One would think there is a problem, then you look at the population of the US and then look at the number of cases and deaths and it is miniscule

Especially when you compare it to the economic damage us freaking out has caused. Sigh I swear politicans must have a mental disorder that compels them to act in a crisis even if doing so will make things worse

Famously, yes.

It's a election year.

One half is completely dedicated to causing as much damage to the country as possible and blame the other half.

And the other half is to worried about being blamed for any deaths that they aren't pushing back against the clearly bad policys in the hope of looking like they really really care about people and won't be tarred and feathered by the people that don't care about reality and will tar and feather them anyway.

It has become impossible for them to come together as Americans. One side made literally everything political and now the other side has to defend everything as political. Neither side can compromise because one side will declare it a triumph over their enemy and the other will be chastised for their defeat.

It's a bad situation when a pandemic is a chance to score political points instead of a time to come together, but here we are...

Famously, yes.

It's somewhat unsettling that we live in an age where Sir Humphrey Appleby would probably do a better job than our current crop of politicians. Careerism, moralising and optics have ruined government.

Actually in show its shown that Humphrey is competent at his job he's just incredibly cynical about it.

Oh yes, he even says "government isn't about morality, it's about stability" or something to that effect. I just think it's rather amusing to consider that, if he were a reality in our age, the consummate civil servant might be the greatest British statesman of the early 21st century. What I wouldn't give for some fucking pragmatism in Westminster.

Iran for a triple but only got credit for a single.

Coronavirus: Iran cover-up of deaths revealed by data leak

Nearly three times more people died than Iran's government admitted, records seen by the BBC show.

Probably not totally Iran's fault. Depending on those testing kits from their Chinese friends probably didn't help any.

Democratic NY City councilman says hydroxychloroquine saved his life, thanks Trump for advocating drug | Blaze Media

Democratic New York City Councilman Paul Vallone thanked President Donald Trump for coronavirus treatment advice, said hydroxychloroquine saved his life during battle with COVID-19.

Bit of good news for you Westerners, I think more Lefties are turning around on Hydroxychloroquine and doing so in public

If even the ones in power give Trump credit, you know somethings may change

Though I’d expect an expectation for government intervention with the drug will mess up the buying and selling and producing it

If they like to live longer they'll take it.

Yeah, hopefully they don’t mess it up by trying to “help” and end up somehow making it extremely expensive AF

Still, wish there was a vaccine rather than just a treatment
