Easy there, cowboy, you’re carbon-dating yourself. Come to think of it, the fact I picked that up so quick, I’m staring at my own half-life. LOL

We’ve had 11 Flu-related deaths here in DFW this year. Nobody seems to be panicking over that.

I’m all for taking this coronavirus seriously. It’s deadly and scary. But you know what also is a grave threat to global health? The climate crisis.

N 95 Masks selling out across Asia - stopping exports to ensure domestic supply is met. Just a heads up.

It’s like a zombie apocalypse. Doesn’t matter how advanced you are, if there are enough “infected” people you will be overwhelmed.

Of course only the sickest of persons get counted, those who are dying or dead.

10s of thousands are sick.

If the coronavirus is effective enough, we won’t have to worry about a climate crisis any more.

Very sad and very scary....to be trapped, like that.

Reminds me of stories about when London sealed homes of those infected with the Black Plague....the families inside were left to die. Red crosses were painted over their front doors.

Prayers.

Problem is we do not know the real death rate. If say 10% of those infected come down with a serious form of the illness and 10% of those die we are looking at a 1% case fatality rate, which may be drastically lowered with modern ICU care. Then it is nothing to really worry about. However if we do have a real case fatality rate of 5-10% regardless of care then we need to take action.

Having traveled extensively in China and meeting local business and government folks, my only comment is don’t believe ANYTHING from official Chinese officials.
