2019-nCoV Coronovirus (COVID-19]

Interesting..

 

I'm getting fed up with these headlines

HUGE NATIONAL SURGE: Two Australian states confirm big virus jump


We go from 199 to 248 cases, and that's a "huge" national surge apparently


I want to take the nephew and the relos to the Easter Show god damn it

 

New York confirms first coronavirus death as cases in state surpass 500. Missing from this headline: She was 82 with Emphysema..

 

Or the large storehouse of IV drips that hospitals in the US desperately need that were stored on the Island of Puerto Rico
just prior to hurricane Maria making landfall.

 

They will need some TP. America needs TP!

Is it just me?

Every place is saying the same damn thing about steps they're taking to clean up and ward off Covid19, etc. E-mails. Websites. All "signed" by their respective president and/or C.E.O. Starting to sound like the blanket "thoughts and prayers" bullshit.

Just sayin'!

 

I think Boris might be right


"Prime Minister Boris Johnson has largely kept Britain open, opting for more targeted measures, a strategy that has startled some epidemiologists

As the coronavirus now stampedes across Britain and much of the world, Mr. Johnson is heeding the same principle, spurning the mass closures that have become commonplace across Europe and gambling his political future on a more restrained approach.

While countries across Europe have shut schools, sporting events and even restaurants and bars, Mr. Johnson has largely kept Britain open, opting for more targeted measures like asking people with respiratory symptoms to stay home. In effect, his government has said that mass closures will not halt the outbreak, and that exposing a large segment of the population will help build immunity and limit future infections.

That strategy has startled some epidemiologists, drawn criticism from a former health secretary and political ally, and prompted angry demands that Mr. Johnson’s government reveal more of its reasoning.

Cases of the coronavirus in Britain, held low for weeks as officials tracked down the contacts of known patients, have now surged, rising to nearly 800 on Friday from fewer than 600 a day before. With testing limited to hospital patients, Mr. Johnson said on Thursday that the true number of people infected may be as many as 10,000.

President Trump, citing the rising case count, said Friday that he was considering adding Britain to the list of European countries whose citizens are banned from flying to the United States.


The government is leaning heavily on skepticism in some scientific circles about the effectiveness of mass closures. Some epidemiologists fear that closing schools only pulls front-line doctors and nurses away from their work, and believe that large events are less dangerous for spreading the virus than more intimate gatherings at bars or at people’s homes.

It has also said that the measures it has taken, like asking people with persistent coughs and high temperatures to stay home for a week, will reduce the spread of the virus considerably.

But British advisers are also leaning on a more contentious theory: that exposing a large proportion of the population to the coronavirus could help people develop immunity, and put Britain in a better position to defend itself against the virus roaring back next winter.

Sir Patrick Vallance, England’s chief scientific adviser, said the government was looking “to build up some kind of herd immunity so more people are immune to this disease and we reduce the transmission.”

As Europe Shuts Down, Britain Takes a Different, and Contentious, Approach

 

whoever made that meme has no idea what apostrophes mean. or is conspiracy actually a shortened version of some longer word?

 

You're reading way too much into it, it's a meme...lol..

 

Trump power?

You are right, America needs Trump power

 

You couldn't be more correct we need TP

 

Seen a street vendor with it ^^ nobody here buying it...
Why bother when you can get reusable ones .

 

I just returned from Dollar General for some basic supplies and couldn't resist the toilet paper aisle. Signs were posted limiting purchases to just two family sized packs. There was plenty of generic stuff left though.

I bought an additional 4-pack and a couple of other people were buying some too. I briefly spoke to them and they confirmed what we all probably know by now: they didn't really need it yet but they've seen the coverage of empty shelves on the TV and figured they had better stock up before it's all gone. I can't even remember how the shit-paper shortage rumor got started now.

 

My guess giant toilet paper manufacturers like Georgia-Pacific, P&G, and others.........

 

Now that testing for Covid-19 is finally underway we have 15 new cases to report here in Massachusetts over the past 8 hours.

 

Objectively better.
