Coronavirus: Bill Gates Warns Of 10 million Deaths As Virus Spreads To Africa

The Telegraph ^ | 02/15/20 | Sarah Knapton

[MrHead]

Could the Wuhan Flu (i think that would make a great band name) help to alleviate the famine problem in Africa?

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Windows XP was the greatest OS in the history of computing.

All Microsoft had to do was to repackage it as an OS for beginners or those who didn't want to upgrade. But noooo. They introduced that POS, horrible, no good, (Joe Pesci voice in "Goodfellas" MUTHA----ING Windows Vista.

It's the equivalent of killing off vinyl records.

...the African Continent has a LOT of Immunnnity to all sorts of tropical, artic, desert, selvatic diseases. Nothing can take the African people down. They won’t have respiratory issues as it is HOT...

Not to mention the greater genetic diversity of Africans.

[Chauncey Gardiner]

Bill funds several virology labs... one wonders

[null and void]

More that that Bill.

But isn't your stated goal a major reduction in the human population of Mudder ERF?

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

[Buttons12]

More worrisome is Chinese involvement in Africa. Whether you call it colonialism, investment, or influence.

[Bommer]

Gates is one of the few people on this earth I could give a flying crap what he thinks or says!

[Gamecock]

1.2 billion people live in Africa.

10,000,000 seems low.

[Karl Spooner]

I always thought Windows 3.1 was the best, along with the Netscape browser at the time. I loved to watch that thing defrag itself!

[PIF]

aides, malaria among other big killers

[dayglored]

> Bring back Windows XP you bastard!

LOL!

[Tijeras_Slim]

What’s it to you Billy? A sudden shortage of programmers from Sudan?

[wildcard_redneck]

“They want the population down to around 500 million.”

When I have conversations with people who are advocating for population control I always just say, “You first!”

[PIF]

She thinks that the African Continent has a LOT of Immunnnity to all sorts of tropical, artic, desert, selvatic diseases. Nothing can take the African people down. They won’t have respiratory issues as it is HOT..Hot

this virus likes it hot too. this virus destroys lung tissue creating ‘glass lung’ which is usually fatal. how is their immunity to a bio-weapon ...?

[PIF]

Could the Wuhan Flu (i think that would make a great band name) help to alleviate the famine problem in Africa?

and if it is what some think it is, it will help to alleviate the famine problem worldwide ...

you got confused 10 m are the survivors

[RummyChick]

if you live in a city with a lot of chinese you need to at least have some liposomal C

They give IV’s of Vitamin C to try to combat Sepsis that can come with flu/pneumonia as a new way to treat. Way back when our family dealt with this issue they didn’t know to do that.

[WKUHilltopper]

Yep.

[RummyChick]

Their genetic pool adapted. For example , it is thought sickle cell anemia and thalessemia evolved to combat malaria.

This is why sickle cell carriers are seen with more frequency in some races.

My family is from Wales, Ireland, England but yep..I got stuck with some genetic mess from way back when and ended up with thalessemia.

Bill, put a cork in it. That one case in Egypt was reported two days ago.
-------------------------------------------------------

Yeah, seems like "...warns of 10 million deaths in Africa" is a bit of an overreaction/clickbait headline for one case in Egypt. At first I though the newspaper was taking a headline from the "Event 201" simulation from last October (partially sponsored by the Gates Foundation):
