Coronavirus

[El Correcto]

Washington Post posted this today. Fake newwwwwwws. LOL

Video description: “Over the past month, many Fox News anchors and personalities have gone from doubting the seriousness of the coronavirus pandemic to calling it a public health crisis.”

More of an economic crisis than a public health.

At the end of the day you can’t sink the world’s economy over a mild flu that 80% of the population is going to experience very minor symptoms if at all.

thats the insanity of what we're doing . nicely said

What would be wrong with expanding the unemployment insurance benefits to include the bar owners and others forced out of work. Increase the benefit levels to cover cobra payments and eliminate the waiting period so people can get paid ASAP. Would this stress the states too greatly? I do not need the money and would rather see my neighbors in need receive it.

sounds nice problem is the gov is the one administering it and planning to do it in a couple of weeks.

 

[newfie]

I'm sorry you think it isn't serious. Once again, you're seriously deluded, sir.

lets table this discussion until the flu carnage is complete and we're having a shootout over toilet paper and a loaf of bread.

Wow
Chinese scientists destroyed proof of virus in December | The Sunday Times

 

[UnconTROLLed]

Chinese laboratories identified a mystery virus as a highly infectious new pathogen by late December last year, but they were ordered to stop tests, destroy samples and suppress the news, a Chinese media outlet has revealed.

A regional health official in Wuhan, centre of the outbreak, demanded the destruction of the lab samples that established the cause of unexplained viral pneumonia on January 1. China did not acknowledge there was human-to-human transmission until more than three weeks later.

How many do you think are going to die if half the population get infected?

Sure. Let's see. Trump started out with today's equivalent of $440M from his father. Trump is far from self-made. It's highly doubtful he's really a billionaire, and do we count all of those bankruptcies? None of Trump's financial boasts can be verified because we don't have access to his financial records or tax returns. Why is that?

My personal ethics wouldn't allow me to lie, cheat, and, yes, steal, in order to become famous. Trump has none of those barriers holding him back. The Trump MO is to not pay contractors after they perform the work. When they sue, they go to the back of a very long line and soon realize they'll probably never see a dime.

That would be the theft component.

Earlier today the EIU said that it expects half the world's population will become infected.

Depends on which half.
If we used proper social distancing and high risk house holds take proper precautions, not many at all.
