I guess the kids will have to go hungry.
Because if you can get it by putting your hands in your mouth or nose from a plastic surface, you can get it from food under 170 deg.

“According to the school district, the Southern Nevada Health District was consulted and has stated that there is no evidence to suggest that COVID-19 can be spread through food.”

"Don't speak beastly about Hitler and he'll leave us alone."
"But I do know this. If it was classified information...and any information gathered by a US agency of that nature would be classified Top Secret...I would recommend you not speak of it again.

That’s what would be properly called inflammatory, potentially bringing armed conflict."

"Once is happenstance. Twice is suspicious. Three times is enemy action."

This is the THIRD time in twenty years that a dangerous (to the world) virus has originated in China and escaped. China is effectively making war on the whole world. Including itself, but its ruling elite, the Chinese Communist Party, doesn't care about that. We should, even if it means armed conflict.

Which won't be necessary. We can bring down the CCP with the same means we used to bring down the USSR. One of those means, and the most necessary one, is to educate the American people about the nature of the threat. THAT is where you and I are completely at odds.

And, as a practical matter, I believe there is now a meaningful chance that the CCP will lose power within ten years. Xi is already a dead man walking.

“Maybe that Swedish guy that went on a crazy posting binge the other day on these threads has Wuhan Flu”

I told him he needed to get to Walmart before all the NYC refugees stripped it, so he’s probably been trampled.

Yep. That is the equivalent of selling Liberty Ships to the Japanese in WW2. Detestable.

unfortunately, the mask fiasco was made worse by all the churches and the Chinese going to every store they could and gathering as many masks as possible and shipping them to China PLUS from what I understand many hospital departments and warehouses here that had received their normal shipments were then asked by their Chinese suppliers to ship them back to help there...this all happened around January before it started exploding here.

“It’s their chosen means of dealing with their own cognitive dissonance.”

Yeah, it’s that in spades.

They’re still dealing with the conflicting positions of Trump and Rush.

these events will break more than one psyche.

they keep live bears in tiny cages and drain their bile daily. It’s disgusting, barbaric and inhuman - like most of Chinese ‘traditional’ medicine.

“Yeah, I really like the Chinese people.”

Then why does the 89yr old Chinese lady always shove me out of the way at the grocery store?

“I thought they were on a very strict nationwide lockdown for 21 days?”

I was worried it was too late.

It was too late.

But it will be mitigated by the lockdown. Even though the many religious lockdown defiers went to mass worship services.

Seriously people- STOP BUYING MASKS!

They are NOT effective in preventing general public from catching #Coronavirus, but if healthcare providers can’t get them to care for sick patients, it puts them and our communities at risk!

Okay, IMO"there are multiple biowar labs in China outside the control of the central government", but they are biowar labs in name only, and I explained why. They are, however, hideously dangerous due to both secrecy and lack of security, which is hard to do but the Chinese have managed it.

As for their creators' plans to use the stuff on each other in civil wars after the CCP collapses, that is quite normal given Chinese history. Such local potentates have been looking over their shoulders like that for several thousand years. It's even a standard meme in Chinese fiction.

“That is probably the place in the world for which I feel worst. That and the slums in Brazil.”

Friend from Brazil said they (not the friend, he was pissed at the slum dwellers) were partying in the slums like it was extra vacation days. I have some sympathy for them, but not an overwhelming amount.

We’ll never know the real numbers. I suspect even the ones we are using in the US are low (have local evidence) and suspect as cases increase the numbers will become less accurate.
