Please ignore the idiot prevent him from hijacking the thread.

There are actually important things happening and we don't need actual news to get drowned out by his ignorant blustering
Prove my statements wrong. Ignorance is to ignore the facts. They don't quarantine their nation and shut down their economic production over a few coughs and sniffs and old people dying, now do they?


Of course not... but that doesn't prove it's a biological weapon. Was the 1918 pandemic a biological weapon? Pandemics are statistically guaranteed to happen every once in a while.

How about you prove that there are a million dead Chinese and half the country is infected?

Holy cow bro...do you have a support system around you? All three of those CEO's had very real, unrelated, reasons for hanging it up.

Given what we "know" about this virus so far, it seems it would have been devastating in 1918. The only advantage they had back the day was travel was much slower, and quarantine easier.

I was referring to the other idiot who was offering to bet people money, but I'm glad you have the self awareness to realize how you sound
Yes, I perfectly realize I sound like an idiot. I hate the fact that I do. I hate the facts. I would rather anything be true than what I post. But the math is the math, and damn that math.

I would love to be wrong. But the numbers out of China keep growing, and now other states are following their pattern.




How do you know that the Corona Virus is a military grade weapon that was released from Wuhan's BSL-4 lab?

Regarding the washington state health department press conference-

They just started testing people themselves today so I guess they got some results back.

Here is story about them beginning testing this am.

The death toll in China alone is over 1,000,000 to date. The infected rate is over 700,000,000.



where are you getting this number? How could anyone hide this number?


He's his own source.

Several of my friends have FB posted a link to a story saying animal testing was done with this virus as they were trying to perfect a virus that would cause a pandemic.


When they were done with the animals, instead of burning them as required, they sold them to people who ate them or kept them as pets.


That seems less crazy than 1 million are dead in China. And CEOs resigned because they know the truth

You shouldn't get your news from Facebook.....

Speaking of knowing stuff. Everyone, and I mean everyone should listen to this podcast.

https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/deep-background-with-noah-feldman/id1460055316?i=1000466938203

It's a short interview with Marc Lipsitch, an epidemiologist at Harvard University, predicts that between 40 to 70 percent of adults in the world will become infected with the coronavirus.

He's actually a professional with a careers worth of experience. Not some random anonymous hack forum poster like the rest of us......

There was an article posted earlier with same guy quoted.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Didn't catch that one. Long day of work today.

He goes into detail on how he came to the 40-70% number w actual modeling. Interesting to say the least.

The number can change with containment strategies but he doesn't see it stopping soon.

Listen for what he says about climate slowing the spread.

Some things got confused. There is an elementary school employee in Oregon that tested positive and then there are 2 cases in WA :
The high school that the presumptive Washington case attends is in Snohomish County (Jackson High). Other WA case (woman with travel history to South Korea) is in King County.

Well, the proof will be when the political and business elites head for their bunkers/islands/mountain retreats.

Anyone have video or audio of this? I've heard on a source other than CNN but can't find.

If he really said it, they need to just tell him to stop talking about anything virus related.....so much fail that can come back to haunt him in November. Downplaying a giant unknown isn't a winning strategy, especially if the unknown can cause widespread negative economic and health effects.


"It's going to disappear. One day it's like a miracle, it will disappear," Trump said at the White House Thursday as the virus marched across Asia and Europe after US officials said the US should brace for severe disruption to everyday life.

I agree with you. He has nothing to gain by seeming to ridicule concern about this virus and a lot to lose. Democrats are definitely politicizing it, but he has to resist getting sucked into this.

Quote:


President Donald Trump accused Democrats of "politicizing" the deadly coronavirus during a campaign rally here on Friday, claiming that the outbreak is "their new hoax" as he continued to downplay the risk in the U.S.
"Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus," Trump said. "They have no clue, they can't even count their votes in Iowa."

"This is their new hoax," Trump continued, adding that attacking the White House's response to the coronavirus had become the Democratic Party's "single talking point."


The word he means is "diversion." The word "hoax" sounds as if he believes the virus is an imaginary threat.

There is enough for me to worry about in terms of economic and health threats to my family and me without watching Trump go out on such a precarious limb.

No doubt what he is referring to is their endless lying such as Trump cut funding to the CDC.

For those who love medical articles, here is something to dig into. I make no comment about the contents of the articles. Everyone can decide for themselves.

Living in Japan, few things to note:

Almost all major museums, stadiums and tourist attractions closed until further notice.

Schools are being closed for the next month at least throughout the country.

I'm in Yokohama and the city is far less busy than usual. Almost everyone wearing masks.
