The only way we dumb apes get to figure stuff out is working together, and doing the heavy lifting—together.

We are on thread #35 here, and have used teamwork to gain a solid understanding of this virus.

The way to solve the mystery is to take the time to read the threads—from the beginning—and watch how we learned—together.

Those who don’t want to make the effort will just have a mystery that makes no sense at all.

Second wave hitting China already... Official not rumor anymore. I guess I do not under the term seasonal when it comes to virus, maybe Coronavirus does not understand the term seasonal.

When enough quit, the hospital managers will be forced to loosen the purse strings and get proper PPE supplies.

Morons on parade here. A bunch of workmen and their little kids next door to do “essential” deck work. Supposed to be here for several days. Maybe they can get the nail salon ladies to come out and give them an essential pedicure.

On worldometer.com, if you scroll below all the graphs on country specific pages, there are normally explanations for such changes in numbers, with source links. In this case:

“2116 new cases and 1355 new deaths in France, including 884 fatalities in nursing homes”

During Y2K one of the prepper “last resorts” to deal with idiots was to put red ribbons in an X mark on the front door with a handwritten sign that said “Quarantine”.

You may have to go there!

Can some one explain to me why the urgency for this virus?

The yearly deaths in the US from Influenza and Pneumonia: 55,672 / 365 = 152.5 deaths per day in the US.

The daily death rate of the corrona virus now is > 1,000, and will be > 2,000 in about 4 - 5 days. Almost 10 times the daily death rate of the flu now, and soon to be 20 times the death rate of the flu, this all adds additional stress upon our HCS. If HCS collapse from the strain, as the HCS has in every other country, and as it certainly will here, then even minor illnesses and emergencies will become fatal, adding even more deaths to the tally.

I have a hard time understanding why relatively intelligent folks, like yourself, draw a complete blank when trying to understand what's happening. I mean, seriously, how can you NOT get it?

The chart below (which I generated) projects the number of deaths at the current rate of expansion. Our leaders tell us the peak will be around 15 April. So the rate will slow as we approach the 15th. If so, the chart below will have a rounded top around the 15th April and begin a down slope. So, disregard the curve at or after the 15th. Let's pray they're right about when this peaks though.

If we want to claim we are better than China, we need to stop acting like China:

Captain of aircraft carrier fired for leaking the letter about containing spread of Corona on USS Theodore Roosevelt. Not for contents of letter but for act of leaking the letter.

Sweden Begins To Abandon Liberal Coronavirus Approach As Deaths Surge

Authored by Paul Joseph Watson via Summit News

Having been one of the few European countries in the world not to impose a coronavirus lockdown, Sweden is now starting to abandon its liberal approach after a surge in deaths.

Up until now, Sweden had kept schools, bars, restaurants and cinemas open while only restricting gatherings that were over 50 people.

People were encouraged to observe social distancing measures, but there were no quarantine protocols enforced by force of law and unlike its Scandinavian neighbors, Sweden’s borders remained open.

Commentators warned that this was “like watching a horror movie” and that it would inevitably backfire.

Now that Sweden has recorded 239 COVID-19 deaths, more than Norway, Finland and Denmark combined, the country’s left-wing government is finally imposing a stronger form of lockdown.

“As the number of new cases and deaths from COVID-19 rises sharply in Sweden the government and the Public Health Agency have presented new measures for how people can further slow the spread of the novel coronavirus,” reports Radio Sweden.

The new “guidelines” encourage people to avoid public transport during rush hours, advise shops to stagger the number of people they let in, and tell sports clubs to cancel all upcoming matches and tournaments.

However, it doesn’t appear as though any of the measures will be enforced legally through police dispersal orders or fines.

In other European countries like Spain, Italy and the UK, it is forbidden to go outside except for “essential” reasons.

Every day they're putting out a new projection
They've all been very wrong so far.
Video graph source was WHO and IHME, Global Burden of Disease.

> This video graph was posted on march 29th they're already down by 4,340 on March 30 2020 Real number is 36,914. They have on this chart 41,254.
Today April 2 2020 deaths where 52,596 this graph shows it at 59,910 the bottom right I think that is total number of reported cases real is 1,007,436 graph shows 10,838,131 CORONAVIRUS DEATHS COMPARED TO OTHER CAUSES OF DEATHS
