Interesting interview...
http://www.sectual.com/thread-5047-post-...#pid107821
I just wanted to make the point that HIV is biosafety level 3.
Whatever escaped from the Wuhan lab is biosafety level 4.

It's because people are staying home rather than seeking medical attention...
Dying at home and possibly never confirmed to be infected in the first place.
Therefore they don't count them.
After all, this is what the line at the hospital looks like...

And some people would have to walk miles to get there...
Who's gonna be walking miles when they're literally dying?
This is why they're not being counted.
Three percent of confirmed cases. If they report 100 people were infected, we should expect 3 deaths to be reported. They obviously wouldn't report unknown infections or deaths.
Imagine what a 3% mortality rate means.
Let's say there are 7 billion people on earth, and all of them are exposed. That's a possibility, since everyone infected will spread the disease before they show symptoms. Even if they don't get sick, they'll be carriers.
That's 210,000,000 dead. More than the Spanish flu or the bubonic plague. More than the population of some large countries.
Fuck.

Fuck.
Yeah and to think it couldn't happen would be...
Foolish.
We want to believe that everything will stay the same, nothing will change, we'll get to tick along and do what we like doing for the rest of our lives, but alas...
Even as far as we are into this situation, it has become very clear that society is held together by a very thin and ever unraveling thread.
This guy is talking about containment in one province of China when there are already multiple epicenters all over China? Give me a break. China is fucked.
America has a few advantages over China.
We have better hygiene habits.
We have better food safety procedures.
Our doctors have access to adequate protective gear.
Americans (except for CNN journalists and other sociopaths) are more civic-minded, thus less likely to knowingly transmit a disease.
Still, I wouldn't be complacent about it.
Or maybe China isn't fucked. They have a huge population. A few million deaths won't put a dent in it. They don't value human life anyway. Maybe they're hoping to kill off a few million to thin the herd.

Quote:1. Dr. Harvard Ding: According to data from a Wuhan hospital, 29% of the 138 confirmed patients with new crown virus infection were medical staff, and 12.3% of ordinary patients were infected with the virus in the hospital.

Quote:2. A total of 41.3% of confirmed patients were infected at the hospital!
Think of the long queues and crowded waiting rooms in hospitals everywhere ...

Sounds like BS, how could they know that? Interesting nonetheless.

Yeah, there will be more starvation deaths in China. Probably the same in every country.
Because there will be fewer farmers to grow food and raise beef, pork, and poultry, and fewer butchers to slice, dice, and package it up.
There will be fewer technicians people to keep the electricity, gas, water, and Internet turned on.
There will be fewer trained people to mine coal, and fewer oilmen to drill for oil and refine it into fuel.
There will be fewer factory workers to make things we need, fewer truckers to haul it to the stores, and fewer store associates to stock it and ring it up.
Europe was fucked for decades after the plague because there weren't enough people to do all of the work necessary to keep society functioning.
Even if you and your loved ones don't get sick, life will be harsh for awhile.

It's hard to believe that the people who gave the world the Tao Te Ching are
also the same people that brought us hardcore communism and live a cold-hearted
fuck-your-neighbor-before-they-fuck-you mindset. Somewhere in there, they truly
lost their way.

Not long ago it was half that. I wonder just how devastating the real numbers are?

The Chinese didn't invent communism. It was invented by a German Jew named Karl Marx. The Soviet Union was the first country to adopt communism. The Soviet mindset was pretty much the same as in modern day China.
Marx was a right sack of dogshit. He didn't bathe and rarely held a paying job. He freeloaded off of his friend Friedrich Engels for 20 years while he fucked around writing his brilliant masterpiece.
Yes, a filthy bum who never did an honest day's work considered himself qualified to school the world about capital and economics. Just like the little masked shitbag communists running around terrorizing American cities today.

Sounds promising
(Hangzhou has 9.8 million people. It's 350 miles from Wuhan.)

That's nothing short of infuriating.
Their reasons for taking away those medicines are such bullshit.
PEOPLE CAN'T GET IN TO SEE A FUCKING DOCTOR, THE HOSPITALS ARE SWAMPED!
They're turning people AWAY!
Fucking outrageous.
They're either confiscating all the meds because THEY NEED THEM, or they just WANT these people to DIE.

@npr
tonight is reporting that every new case of #coronavirus on the ship from here on out will reset the 14-day #quarantine clock.

Quote:The coronavirus quarantine that's kept some 3,700 people aboard a cruise ship in Japan is currently set to expire on Feb. 19 — but that date will be reset every time a new case is confirmed on the ship, a WHO official says.

So all of these ships in quarantine will be reseting their 14 days EVERY TIME SOMEONE IS CONFIRMED.
How is that NOT a living nightmare??
There IS a nightmare tone to this timeline, y'all.
It's most certainly not constant, and the rule of existence is duality...
There's always good and bad...
But I am just saying, the BAD on this timeline seems to be extreme.
And the good, perhaps its own extreme.
But I am specifically addressing the seemingly nightmarish aspect of it.
