Wuhan Coronavirus

[megman]

Everyone check out the Texas CV curb graph the next week or 2. Self isolation and shelter in place has been in place in the bad affected areas for a week or more. Now we will see how this CV fucker stands up to our strongest defense. Today, it was a record high of 97.

Meh... Texans are expendable.

Mexican-lite.

Live updates: Coronavirus death toll in U.S. reaches 1,000 as number of confirmed cases passes China

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/20 ... test-news/

You're welcome sir, the Chinese did an awesome job of containing this virus and warning people about it. Hopefully we'll step it up a bit in the US and do close to the same.

And a few of my financial advisers called me today & asked, "hey Freak, the market is bouncing back, do you want to go back in?" You know what I said? "Fuck no." It hasn't even come close to bottoming out yet. We got a tiny bounce because of the worthless bail out that is more of my money anyway. After maybe several months and when they come up with a cure to this fucked up illness, maybe then. Until then, I'll just retire with what I already made.

A couple tips if your stores have been hit hard by panic buyers.

a) Have an Amazon Prime membership? Don't forget about Amazon Prime Now. Free 2 hour delivery. Most of the fresh stuff comes from Whole Foods.

b) Anywhere near a Restaurant Depot? Most of the restaurant supply stores are not moving much product since the restaurants are selling nearly as much food. They are stocked. If you have a business/tax ID, you can get a free membership. Don't have that? Sign up for the Kansas City BBQ Society (been a member for 3 years). I don't care one shit about the KCBS, but for $40/yr I can print out 1 day passes and get access to RD. Mostly bulk stuff similar to Costco/BJ's/Sams but usually cheaper. Access to stuff I've never seen in other stores. Food, restaurant cookware supplies, tp, cleaners, etc.

Just some suggestions, I'm not twisting your arm. Maybe it helps you out.

Is there any doubt that this attention seeking cunt will come back with a negative test result? BTW, not a bad room considering

She just got back from Mexico a week ago. So, this entitled cunt travels internationally, within the last two weeks, with the world and US literally locking down over this pandemic. For a vacation. And is now all "I have covid. I am high risk, I just got back from traveling internationally and they won't test meeeee!!!". I don't know if that's irony but she's certainly not very self aware or has any sense of accountability. And the hospital most definitely would have tested her if she had actual covid symptoms.

All she had was a stomach infection, I had the same thing years ago. Vomiting, diarrhea. Severe stomach pain. Dehydrated Elevated wbc count like I had too I bet. But NO COUGH NO SINUS issues. She's probably has or is about to get diverticulitis too as a result of it. I had it within a month of being hospitalized for an abdominal infection like she described. Felt more like food poisoning than anything. Id say she's an attention whore but that's like saying water is wet

But after being in the hospital, she probably has it now anyway. And that room looks pretty standard at my local hospital. My mom had a seizure and was in a nearly identical room in the main section of the hospital. Not some isolation ward

And also, has anyone heard from Who?

This really doesn't mean anything, but it might put things a little more in perspective for people.

Right now the United States is leading the world in cases of Coronavirus with 86,000 cases. 1300 deaths. The US population is 327 million.

If you look at the most common European countries, here's how they stack up:

Italy, population 60 million, cases 80,000, deaths 8200
Spain, population 47 million, cases 64,000, deaths 4900
Germany, population 83 million, cases 49,000, deaths 304 (wow)
France, population 66 million, cases 30,000, deaths 1700
The Great briton, population 65 million, cases 15,000 (lol), deaths 761

So, add that up and you have a population of 321 million. Total Cases = 238,000. Deaths = 15,900

Compared to the United states population of 327 million. Total Cases = 86,000. Deaths = 1,300

And, if you overlay those countries (same scale) on top of the Continental US (not including alaska, etc) it looks like this.

Which makes China's claim of 81k cases seem like utter bullshit, no?

honestly, i don't really know how you respond to China's numbers. On one hand I think they are lying and hiding and covering up a whole lot of what happened. but on another hand I think that is probably impossible in today's world. The doctors that first leaked this out back in December did it on facebook or something similar. In a country that size, if there were thousands of people dying of this then it would have leaked out by now.

Having said that, it is also a communist country. And because of that they have the ability to perform monumental methods of isolation, quarantine, etc. Its probably a combination of both.

[Animal]

If you overlay the province in China that had most of the cases (Hubei, this is where Wuhan is located). They had 68,000 cases in that one province. This is a scale map overlayed onto the United States.

[B-Tender]

I extremely skeptical of any numbers I read, including from the US. There's obviously a exponential amount of people who are infected compared to documented cases. The death numbers are likely closer to the truth, although likely still skewed.
