Re: Article: How the Markets and Media have over hyped Corona
Playing devil's advocate to the OP (because I too believe this Chinese virus is strummed up liberal news media horse shit)

What doomers are going to grasp to is they are going to point to normal every year influenza deaths and say that's the China virus...proof positive everyone is gonna die.

Also the simple answer to China reporting they are beginning to get back to normal operations will be that they are lying and instead billions of them are dead and supply chain fucked forever.

Traffic is higher, but no where near what its suppose to be...


so yah , some things are coming back, but over all its still really bad.

And that bad is all over the place.. not just china anymore.

Look at Italy, italy was bad already economically, and now with Tourism gonna take a noise dive, its gonna go to sheetz

All of EURO is in trouble, even if CHINA is back 100%


EURO banking issues from a couple years ago is still a problem.

Greece now has the Turks pushing people into the country.. and on and on .. no good news anywhere.

Snip...

Yet, when compared to the global annual mortality of other diseases, the number of total deaths is relatively insignificant.

Measles: 140,000 deaths

Influenza: 650,000 deaths

Tuberculosis: 1.5 million deaths

Infectious gastroenteritis: 1.8 million deaths

Imagine a world in which every death from the flu was reported on the front page of every media outlet. You might be surprised, for example, to find out that in the U.S. 105 children have died from the flu so far in 2020 - the second-highest number of deaths at this time of year since records began in 2004.

Depends on the bias in the situation though right? Because here's how this works..BAD news fucking thrives.

If China came out today and said a million/day were dying the hoards on GLP would report it as the 100% truth gospel. If and when China reports of things going back to normal that'll without doubt be fake news right?

Very noticeable to me how GLP ONLY reports on the stock market on days when there is a selloff/downturn. If there is a day when it's going up it's GD crickets...you won't hear anything about it.

In a way GLP, has now turned into a fake news CNN/MSNBC forum website.

I dont care about what GLP does or doesnt do, i call it how i see it.

The corrupt and hidden governments of the world hide disasters and events that make the government look bad, thats a fact, for example Soviet Union hiding and covering up Chernobyl. The Chinese, Iranians and other are hiding the true numbers, including the number of dead.

This virus is serious, its growing in western countries now and even here governments are not recording them correctly.

Maybe instead of blaming GLP you should look at your own logic, maybe its you not everyone else.

 Quoting: Halcyon Dayz


I would say the only argument is that China took very drastic measures to contain it. It will continue to spread like wildfire here because of a lack of emergency measures. We’re more concerned about perception to the markets.

650,000 people do not die from the flu each year. WHO and CDC numbers are bullshit, they count all pneumonia deaths as flu deaths and also use statistics such as difference between summer death rate vs winter death rate, and blame all that on influenza so people who died in car crashes, froze to death, or slipped and fell are counted too.

They say something like 30k die from flu in the US each year when in reality it's more like 1000-3000. Gotta sell them flu shots.

I have a family member who died from pneumonia last year, he never had the flu it was a bacterial infection. CDC sez he died of flu.

Re: Article: How the Markets and Media have over hyped Corona
My recent response on another thread which is perfect for this one:


I am in healthcare and I am just not seeing it. I have businesses in various areas of the state as well as friends in healthcare in other parts of the state. I know someone in another country that actually had a patient at their hospital in later January. No healthcare provider caught anything there and it is very well controlled in their country.

I do believe someday we will see a true pandemic but I don’t think this is it. I believe that people that are frail or have compromised immunity are going to succumb if they catch this just like they could with a flu, a urinary tract infection or pneumonia. I think there are already more cases than we know that get through it like anything else.

Now the economy is another issue. IMO it is fragile at best but I have thought that for years. The ponzi scheme has to implode at some point. Think of the sales from all the fear mongering. We have used canned powdered milk for years and my supply was low. I ordered a few weeks ago and received an email that because of corona it will be 1-2 months before I receive it. But they sure as heck processed my payment.

In 4 weeks I think that cases will still climb but not even close to mass extinction level. I think it will remain as a fear distraction to get the masses prepared to accept a new vaccine that big pharma will create. Again to continue to make big bucks for that industry.

The hysteria will still remain and panic buying will ensue. I hope that new industry will begin to be formulated in the US so we are less reliant on China for goods, it wouldn’t be a bad thing to not have off some of the crap they produce, maybe people would start to realize that don’t need the majority of the junk that fills the average dollar store that seem to be everywhere.

That’s what I was thinking

When I mention only 2 people from flight crews have gotten sick with this it makes people think.

Flight crews are around thousands of people everyday. None are getting sick and quarantined. Ships are being quarantined. But no flights. I flew and crew and people who travelled were sick a lot. No mention of this. No mention of shutting down airports and quarantining them. It doesn’t add up.

If crews aren’t striking so as not to fly we have nothing to worry about other than people freaking out and becoming hoarders.

People with your logic are actual retards. If this virus was as wide spread as those others including the seasonal flu the numbers would be in the tens of millions dead. It’s not wide spread, it’s just starting to spread which is why it’s alarming because if the numbers are correct and you extrapolate them to have them infecting people everywhere like the common flu then the mortality rate will make your static’s look like a walk in the park. We’re talking about possibly as many people dead as in all of WWII in the course of 2 years if this plays out with a full blown world wide pandemic
