China Wuhan Virus Pandemic

[CarlManvers2019]

Best case scenario, the world recovers rapidly, but far more detached from the Chinese economy.

Maybe it also sparks a revolution or a feeling of needing reforms in China too

I am and still hoping that The Sietch is friendlier than what others claimed it to be.

It's basically as friendly as your average small forum. I have no idea what would give people an impression otherwise.

We got a Nurgle cultist here folks.

Which, to be fair, can range from surprisingly so, to not even remotely; depending on various factors. People can be jerks, but it's not a requirement.

Sounds fun it's only war games with the ROK and no one else?

I am in the ROK apart of the combined division. It is the only ones we work with

What’s needed is a subsidy for businesses to retool their factories to make PPE and other pandemic-fighting gear, and shitloads of it. We need it right the heck now.



Honestly, I don’t remember H1N1 shutting down all the factories in China and stalling all of their exports. Something feels very different about all of this.

Well did H1N1 start there?

Iran and Italy seem to be in the new for being the worst hit outside of China. Alot of Tehran's higher-ups getting infected while Italy has been totally locked down from the looks of it.

I work at the TSA and in a year i've found guns, ammo, and knives. Not every airport is lax. Mine try to make the extra effort to do drills, test, and extra-training on our time.

Italy and Iran are going to never recover.

Must be fun being with the TSA

But thats exactly my point, average is not notable.

Renowned Italian Doctor Roberto Stella Dies from Coronavirus

Dead.

Italy and Iran are going to never recover.

Why is Italy so hard hit?

 

[Marduk]

Why is Italy so hard hit?

Late response, poor infrastructure, old population, culture highly conductive to infection spread.

...Greece is screwed.

 

[Zachowon]

Why is Italy so hard hit?

The culture is one of closeness and large gatherings. Older population with bad health. That sorta stuff.

 

[Arch Dornan]

More more.

Actually not yet. The second test hasn't been done.

 

[Scottty]

How soon before the elderly worthies of the US federal legislature start to come down with it?

 

[gral]

More more.

Actually not yet. The second test hasn't been done.

The Brazilian government has officially stated one hour ago that Bolsonaro has tested negative for COVID-19. Press jumped the gun here.

They love to do that. It's their bread and butter.

There was also a pretty big desire for this news being, in fact, true.

Yeah, the leftards of Brazil have no real recourse, so they hope for their opponents to die. Would be delicious karma if they were revealed to be diseased instead.

So minimum time for an FDA approved vaccine is 18 months. DIY Biologists are trying to get around this with questionable legality.

 

[Shipmaster Sane]

Why is Italy so hard hit?

Something like 60% of their population is over 40 and an enormous number of smokers / ex smokers, I'd wager. Public Bidets probably aren't helping things either.

 

[PsihoKekec]

And also absolutely no concept of personal space.
