My aunt works at our local Walmart and she said that there was a couple guys in a big box truck going around town buying up all of the TP. Seriously WHAT IN THE FLYING FUCK!  Are people eating it? lol

Just went to town to get a few groceries and everyone is completely sold out of TP and Bread and bottled water and any type of alcohol based Sanitizer including rubbing alcohol which my dad needs for his Diabetes testing. I bought 2 of those big Value packs last week so we're good on TP.

 

If I run out I'll cut up some old bead sheets or go up in the woods and grab a hand full of leaves lol.

This is just total panic by our so-called leaders. Its almost like they are all one-upping each other in how much they do panic on an hourly basis. The winner is the one that panics the most.

Then please explain what is the alternative when it comes to public safety?  If a tsunami was on its way, would you suggest I get my board and shoot those taste waves. ;) 
 

I’m referring to public health, not the silly hoarding bit.. that’s ridiculous.

I suppose its just premature to take overly drastic measures on this scale. Certainly nationally. Are we going to do this every time some new flu makes the rounds? Maybe every year January to March should be considered shutdown season?

Hey Sammy, I think you maybe over estimating that this is a yearly event, though I admit it’s has happened more often of late. 
 

But let me pose to you. We live in a much more urban society specially in the past 20 years. What took distance to spread in the 1918 Spanish Flu outbreak is now literally feet. The rate of spread is a lot easier these days. Also, outbreaks such as these were primarily geographical. Travel was limited then while in today jet age, travel across nations is merely hours away. 

 

My thoughts are as always to error on precaution and safety.

I realize many of you are too fucking lazy to actually read anything that may educate you...but here’s another attempt. Read the link in this tweet.

For you lazy motherfuckers, you can look at the pretty picture above. The straight red line across the bottom of the graph represents our peak ICU bed capacity per 100k people If we surge it to it’s highest potential. We are behind the curve in implementing these mitigation strategies, and they won’t work as well because too many people out there are assholes that don’t GAF. If you are saying to yourself “yeah but it’s only got a mortality rate of like 2%”, that number is 20x the regular flu and also presupposes everyone who needs an ICU bed gets one. If they get full, mortality rate spikes to 10% or higher and we have an outcome similar to or worse than the Spanish Flu Pandemic of 1918. This has become a numbers game of exponential growth. It also means that if the hospital is full of Wuhan Virus patients, there’s no room for any of the usual heart attacks, appendicitis, etc. So then more people start to die from other ailments that they normally wouldn’t die from. See how that works? Additionally, as healthcare workers become infected, and thus must go into isolation, we further decrease our maximum sustainable patient load due to staff shortages...possibly resulting in a death spiral of the healthcare system. It is quite likely we missed our window of opportunity to maximally bend the curve immediately. The Chinese Communist Party is now kicking American journalists out of their country...probably to make it easier to cover up the resurgence of cases they are likely to have now that they are making their people go back to work in their factories. I am expecting even more draconian measures than we have already to be implemented in the near future here in America. Buckle up.

Here is a little story about the Spanish Flu you may want to also read. https://www.history.com/news/spanish-flu-second-wave-resurgence
 

Also, if you think that what’s happening now is causing economic hardship which is outweighed by the deaths that would occur if we did nothing.....you have no fucking clue about economics.

Tron, I think you need to chill out. This latest reply is nothing but personal attacks against anyone that doesn’t agree with you.

You should stop now before you continue to dig a deeper hole.

Sir, 

     At first I was going to ignore this, however your arrogance deserves an answer, your disdain for us fellow idiots shines through loud and clear. Not only are you a medical expert, economics expert and statistical genius, but you are an idiot, and us idiots come here for fun. We do not wish to be spoken to as fools, we treat everything as a joke, it is obvious that your world contains little light or fun, it is a world of gloom and doom, death and destruction. However, thankfully, we too have opinions, they may not be yours, but we have them.

Much agreed even though I and others joke and piss about I'm fairly certain anyone with 2 brain cells can see it's a problem we don't need reminding it's on the news the radio and the Internet practically 24/7 what you don't mention is how companies have gone bust due to the international isolation I myself am twined with a company that mainly makes money from the export of vehicles and items to countries like Poland Lithuania Africa and the such with the EU borders closing as well as other I won't mention brexit as I don't want the arguments on good or bad we are struggling on a day to day basis you don't need to tell us the repercussions of this most of us already live with it day to day also here in the uk the nhs is funded through national insurance and tax payers money which if more companies go bust puts a larger strain on everything as instead of money going in more people go on universal credits or disability which is also tax payer funded if commerce stops in the uk the system runs out of money it's all full circle round here  the evidence everyone's brought forth is much appreciated how ever we are all idiots but we aren't all dumb

 

On a side note both my mother and my missus's mother are immunocomprimised and I swear to god if I got infected or even a slight hint of a cold or cough I wouldn't go near them of my fiancee till I was clear + a week

Hello every body ,

Im from Canada , here is my opinion and self experience about Coronavirus.

I was returning from a 16 days cruise on march 1st , to port of Los Angeles , three days after i was ill , slight fever headaches coughing a lot , and runny nose, two days after , i had to call ambulance to get me to hospital cause of difficulty breathing, bubble sound in my lung , impossible to stay abed or even sit too much coughing .

At my local hospital they isolate me in a special room , and they took special protocol to threat me and test me for different disease including covid-19 and flu .

The personnal of hospital thanked me because i told them all the good information and i didnt get in the emergency wiating area to possible infecting people there.

Thx god everything was negative , but they treated me for infection in the lungs with penicillin for 10 days and i has statex also for helping me sleep and not coughing.

Our government took it seriously and the put lock down mesures to slow down virus spread to insure the system is gonna be able to treat and have enough equipement to cure citizens.

They do not want to loose control like Italy who reacted too late and doctors had to choose who they gonna treat.

Here its easier beacuse everyone as free hospital and all of this. We are still limited by bed availiabilty and breathing equipement.

In US i read that over 35 millions people are not insured (including the illegals) . hope you not loosing control of the spread.

This virus gonna cost a lot of money and gonna put finances of most country to enormous deficits , and i say also lot enterprises gonna run bankrupt hope this not gonna put the world in big recession.

I think we should take this serious and think to save our elders and others with health bad conditon.

I hope 1'll never be responsible to infect another and possibly send im into death .

Take care evrybody.

Mark

Sure it is, it's the only time I'd stoop so low as to buy The Sun newspaper or any of the other crappy tabloids here in the UK ?
