COVID-19 >> New Drug Activity & VACCINE TRACKING!!

[caskur]

This could be the apocalypse we have been watching on The Walking Dead and other shows. Man has made a virus that could wipe us all out.

The fallout from the decline of activity will be the worst part... contagions in the supply chain... people either not permitted to work, unable due to sickness, or unwilling due to fear...



A lot of defaults...mortgages....car loans...credit cards... and rolling shortages of items we normally take for granted...



...and then there are the crime waves... breakdown in relationships... trust between families... friends...



A 2-20% kill rate is entirely recoverable and manageable...



...human nature in black swan events is far more insidious...

The crime wave will be the worst.

My militant vegan relative thinks that coronavirus is a punishment to us humans who eat meat because coronavirus is an anagram of "carnivorous."

Your relative is a moron...

Most large families have at least one weird relative.

Indeed...I've got one who rants and raves about being infected as a youth by a rare airborne disease which has destroyed their heart muscle and killed numerous old people in their area... but the government is "covering it up"...



...so I asked them if they have gone to a doctor to be properly assessed for this phantom disease...



"No"



...so I asked them if they could possibly be confusing anxiety attacks with the heavy chest feeling they described...



"No, doctors don't know anything, and said person is much smarter than doctors and the huge array of diagnostic tools at their disposal"



Wash, rinse, repeat...



....usually the convo's take eerie leaps of flow, logic, and topic matter....YET, they try to weave it all together into one concise explanation of the ills of humanity...



...think trees, fracking, punishment by Gaia, various conspiracy theories, uneven wealth redistribution, and how they are a totem healer of other people's problems (or some similarly worded crap like such)...



I usually listen quietly but think "Just do it...just neck yourself... nature demands it!"  



(But I can't.... because "Relative"...)

In the absence of any seen authorities and in the scenario of lockdowns, people (teens in particular) will run amuck... they do it at the best of times...



...I'd wager adults, even more criminally minded ones, would drag their feet about mixing with others in that scenario... unless they've got nothing and/or are mentally ill...



We've got a homeless camp in a nearby State forest full of gypsies, bogans, hippies, bludgers, drug addicts, and mentally ill sorts. I can't imagine what they would do if their drip feed of dole deposits, family charity, open markets, and communal sharing mantra dried up near overnight... They'd hoof it into town a day or two later and be a menace.... most of them not evil, but nevertheless dangerous by quarantine standards... Thank god summer is nearly coming to an end and it's raining heaps...  ahem... ac_umm

I agree that this relative is a moron and I told him that myself so we're not speaking now. Hahahah. But that will change, surely. He says anyone who tries to refute his claims is just a troll. He has followers because, as I said, they are gaining traction. For instance, they all post graphic videos of cows being artificially inseminated so that they will conceive again and that keeps their milk coming. Vegans claim humans are raping cows to keep this industry thriving.



These vegans argue that why should humans eat anything that has a mother, that feels, that cries?

"I think that's a problem that's going to go away," Trump said about the outbreak of coronavirus, known as COVID-19. "Now they have studied it, they know very much. ... In fact, we are very close to a vaccine," he said.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Tuesday warned that it expects the novel coronavirus to begin spreading in the U.S. at the community level, and that "disruption to everyday life may be severe."



CORONAVIRUS FITS CRITERIA FOR 'DISEASE X,' WHO EXPERT SAYS



Dr. Nancy Messonnier, the agency's director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, said in a press briefing on Tuesday that the time for Americans to begin preparing for a potential outbreak of the virus is now, although officials believe the immediate threat to the public remains low.



"As more and more countries experience community spread, successful containment at our borders becomes harder and harder," Messonnier said. "Ultimately, we expect we will see community spread in this country. It's not so much a question of if this will happen anymore, but rather more a question of when this will happen, and how many people in this country will have severe illness."

Ceec, the old lady and I are thinking about cancelling our annual trip to a resort in the Caribbean. We go every spring at the end of the winter drilling season. We may Dominican Republic on hold for now because of the coronavirus outbreak.
