The amazing thing about TexAgs is you can click on some of these posters names and see them saying this was no big deal a month or so ago, and week by week moving the goalposts.


Goalpost have been moved on the panic side as well.

This virus has not changed. The panic around it has made it worse than it really is. It's a new virus, people are going to catch it, and more people will die. Most are going to not have any symptoms or mild symptoms and be fine.

One difference between this and the flu is that Twitter will announce each new infection and each death. It will also blast any outlier like it's about to happen to

Do any of you gents have pulse oximeters? Might be a good way to self diagnose if you come down with allergies, a cold, the flu or coronavirus. I believe I read that coronavirus victims will have o2 sats below 94%

Coronavirus: Hubei city reopens for business, then closes again 30 minutes later

  • Government of Qianjiang says controls on movement of people and traffic to end at 10am on Wednesday, but provincial authorities order them to be reinstated at half past
  • All cities and counties in Hubei have now been given a risk classification and business is slowly returning to normal in some areas

Authorities in a central Chinese city close to the epicentre of the
coronavirus outbreak

have discovered that getting back to normal after weeks of living under lockdown is far from easy.
At 8.30am on Wednesday, the government of Qianjiang which lies about 150km (90 miles) east of Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province said that all restrictions on the movement of people and traffic would be lifted at 10am. They were.

Then, at 10.30am, they were reinstated.

"The city will continue its restrictions on the movement of traffic and residents," the government said, without elaborating.

About two hours later, the Hubei government issued a statement outlining the different restrictions that applied to each city within the province based on their particular situation.


And unfortunately for the people of Qianjiang, despite having the lowest number of confirmed cases of Covid-19 of any city in Hubei, the provincial authority classed it as "high risk" and ruled that all public transport would remain suspended.

It also said that only a handful of businesses in key sectors were permitted to resume their operations.

Socialists think its cruel, but resource allocation based on money is still the most humane system when compared to the blatant age discrimination being adopted by the Italians.
You serious, Clark? This is standard triage practice - where respirators are limited, you help the people that you think will survive with treatment. In this case, the older the person, the less likely survival is.

You'd really rather just let resources go to all of the richest 85-year-olds who can pay but will end up dying anyway? That's humane? Is that part of the prosperity gospel?

You should source such statements.

Also, better to be prepared, than to get caught flatfooted.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Part of Italy's death rate problem is that they're just not treating anybody above 65 OR with lots of comorbidities. (Info not from 4chan, from actual people over there).

They're literally just letting these people die and these are the ones that have a high mortality with treatment.





Still feel that way after what's been posted on this page.

Like I said this morning, this is a big deal. We have the technology to take care of people but we do not have the resources to do it if a lot of people get sick at once.
Oh, BS, hoards of lemmings starting to parrot the media BS.
China can build 120,000sf of hospitals in 10 days.That's baybee steps compared to putting the full 'American Might' behind conquering Kung Flu problem. 'American Might' can blow the doors of anything. AND we have President Trump, a leader that fully believes in the 'American Might'

America will have the GREATEST response, solve the problem and not even need to scratch the surface of deep resources America can throw at Kung Flu.

It's all the other countries that have the technology and the pissant resources for the big fail.

I have 2 grandsons that both live in Ft. Worth. Both work in the same industry. One works for Fidelity the other for Ameritrade.

Fidelity:
No travel. No visitors. Constant communication with employees. Health protocol updates given weekly. Working remotely as possible.

Ameritrade:
No restrictions. Travel encouraged. Meeting with managers today from heavily infected areas. Tornado drill everyone in an enclosed basement, sardine in a can analogy. When concerns voiced mgmt response - we are following CDC guidelines. Wash your hands.

I don't believe in govt. Intervention. Figure common sense and social responsibility will prevail. But looking at the latter response... Damn. At some point there are liability repercussions.

I have a surgeon buddy who works at a hospital in Arkansas. Tells me they had a 30 y/o admitted with ARDS/respiratory failure. Long hospital course. Eventually expired. Family requested autopsy. Path report - ARDS due to, you guessed it, coronavirus. Not tested because lack of "travel hx/exposures." Egregious to me. Innumerable exposed there.

Trump said the administration would restrict "all travel" to the U.S. from Europe, which is reeling from the epidemic, for the next 30 days. The United Kingdom will be exempt from the new limits, which Trump said will go into effect on Friday at midnight.

"These restrictions will be adjusted subject to conditions on the ground," the president said of the European Union travel curbs.

It's not the post I'm referencing. It's his tone on everything.....POTUS just canceled travel to Europe and he'll come back and say it's an overreaction....
