Re: Sorry to break it to you, the virus is real. It's 100 times worse than the flu, and it's about to spread EVERYWHERE
If this virus is as contagious as it I have read it is, it would be logical to assume that 30 - 40% of the USA already has it. It's been spreading around in China since December and we didn't shut down travel from China until very early Feb. Do people really think, the Chinese did not bring it over here in mass quantities before then? If they did, then most of you already have it. If you haven't shown symptoms, then you're asymptomatic most likely, which means most people are asymptomatic. That would also mean we blew this way out of proportion and you should get your asses back to work.

I think you are right - I work in IT for a 24/7 call center we had agents coming from all over Asia / India in Jan / feb etc. there has been a lot "sickness"type stuff going around from Jan, I had something for 3 weeks, very mild flu symptoms - no fever but had the minor throat think happening, tired, sore legs, stomach issue early on for a couple of days, ringing ears, loss of appetite for a while, no cough. it was either the flu which I don't usually get or Covid-19, pumped myself with lipo Vit C (1.5 grms 2 X day) + vid d and zinc / magnesium. can still just feel it a bit in me but otherwise good now. NZ is in lockdown now, so quiet it like the end of the world.

Yep. Spanish flu killed 100 million people, that’s 100,000,000. Even with all the lockdowns and such, they’re too late. It’s everywhere and at least 100 million are gonna die.

What wu flu? Where are all the sick people? The people falling down in the streets? The mass graves, the burning of the bodies?

I mean, use caution if you’re nervous, but where is this chicom flu?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72802140


LOL at you people. This is just beginning. You guys are just a few weeks on. Look back a history and witness for yourself how plagues and epidemics took years before they ravaged the population in the way you describe, even during the Middle Ages when there were no antibiotics and modern medical equipment and knowledge. IT IS JUST BEGINNING. Once the medical establishments fail, then you will get your mass graves. The exponential growth is the problem here. If you guys continue with this attitude and don't do something decisively now, when it is just beginning, you will get what you wished for.

I agree - look at Wuhan over 10m people locked down after it was allowed to spread for a month during one the most in country travel seasons of the year, and yet less 100k people actually caught it? Sure we can dismiss China’s numbers but in reality they seemed to make out well.

This shit has been here since February and we could easily test everyone we would see millions infected and millions that are no longer infected

Re: Sorry to break it to you, the virus is real. It's 100 times worse than the flu, and it's about to spread EVERYWHERE
I think I understand why people want to believe it's fake or a hoax. It's hard to accept the fact that there is a virus like this spreading like wildfire, about to kill millions of people. It's hard to wrap your head around it. I would much rather think that this is all just an elaborate move to take Trump out of office, or some other reason. Pandemics like this are something that has happened many times in history. Many, many, many times. Science and medicine can boast all they want, but a lot of things are still mysteries to doctors. The virus is out there, and it's about to kill a lot more people.
 Quoting: WW3NuclearApocalypse


Explain the figures. 1.38% death rate as of today. As of March 14th, 24,000 people have died of the flu. Explain the figures. Where was the emergency declaration last year when 650,000 died worldwide of the flu.

Don't forget that in the US everyday about 8,750 people die.

And they can't draw any accurate statistics when they only test people who are symptomatic. H1N1 was supposed to have a death rate of over 2 until they later started testing for antibodies in a control and found out it was not nearly as bad.

Keep in mind the swine flu killed between 200,000 and 600,000 in the US and nothing was shut down.

Lowest daily growth in 2 weeks in the US. New York and New Jersey and finally under 30% daily growth. The containment measures are showing signs of progress. Washington State reported on 5% growth. This is gaining time for us.

Exactly. People have trouble understanding exponential growth, and even more trouble with something that takes longer than an episode of Game of Thrones to manifest.

And people talking about Wuhan and comparing it - they went into COMPLETE lockdown, that's the only way they were able to put a cap on it. Think of all those videos of them spraying disinfectant everywhere with the huge machines. Everyone wore masks, etc.

Here, we are doing none of that, so everyone will get their wish - to see if this is "real" or not. Spoiler alert - it is, and this country is about to pay a price a lot higher than just economic damage. It might take until summer to really feel it, but it's coming.

Check back with you "hoax" and nothingburger tards then.
