A forever thread is getting long. Perhaps a weekly thread?

Can you imagine the devastation economically for the average middle income family? Many need another 4-5 years to recover. At this point many are just breaking even and hit like a city, countywide quarantine for a few weeks would break them...even if they had stocked up on food. The lack of income would be a death-knell.

Watch that video, starting at 6:00 in particular. Yes, it’s madonna...persevere. It’s an ‘elite’ telling you exactly what they’ve got planned...
What’s that on her head? What’s another word for that(the spanish word)? Who won’t be coming to the future? (those lyrics alone are absolutely chilling even w/o the satanic skit on stage)

Novel coronavirus: Is this WHO’s mysterious ‘Disease X’?
With the outbreak of the novel coronavirus showing no signs of abating, many experts are now wondering if this is WHO’s mysterious ‘Disease X’.

“Some years ago, the World Health Organisation had spoken about a mysterious “disease X”. The premier organization also warned that this disease may spark an international contagion. Now, fast forward to the present day and you find the deadly coronavirus, or the COVID-19, defying the efforts of all agencies and governments to contain its spread. Moreover, this disease also has the ability to go quickly from mild to deadly. This has sparked fear that, maybe, this is the very disease that the WHO had warned the world about.”

Thanks. I happen to have some of those gasket plastic can lids. I get extra jars from my bakery (that’s what store bakery frosting comes in).

And, I have PLENTY of mason jars...all sizes.

That’s why I used to think an intentional market crash and voter fraud would be the only two ways Dems might unseat him. Now I count the impact of this virus as a third way. IMO Trump needs to get out and stay out in front of it as much as possible with really tight tracking and restrictions on those coming into the US or otherwise at risk with it.

Of course we don’t want him to go the Chinese totalitarian route, but already Italy is enforcing lockdowns and it is reasonable to expect much greater issues yet to arise here.

I am very hopeful that we will be able tove away from China more, but it seems unlikely that India will be able to avoid its spread as well. I would have lkked to hear more moves to reestablish medical manufacturing here on an expedited basis (just let the Dems dare to vote against that!), as well as a rediversification of our local food production.

Instrad we apparently have Trump trying to force turkey and blueberry purchases on India.

India is the other major source of medical materials the Big-Pharma multi-nationals use other than China.

Getting what we can from them now, before COVID-10 sweeps through India, is a high national priority.

There is a good timing aspect. Poor people, especially with kids, are about to get their socialist tax gift from the IRS. Of course since fedgov and msm aren’t saying much about covid19, everyone will probably run out and get big screen TVs and new cell phones, not realizing that they may have to stay home for weeks.

“We estimated that about two thirds of COVID-19 cases exported from mainland China have remained undetected worldwide, potentially resulting in multiple chains of as yet undetected human-to-human transmission outside mainland China.”

*** I can’t imagine the FedGov not contacting an area/city officials, first, prior to making and announcing plans to send folks to quarantine there. ***

I can. Here in my Central TX County FedGov was housing hundreds of DACA kids at the pricey summer camps in the off season. It was only when some of them ran off that the Sheriff, and local Gov was notified.

The Summer Camp owners were getting big bucks, and apparently agreed to secrecy.

Correct. Maybe also getting their pharma companies to open plants in the US.

Oh, also, they source a lot of their underlying meds from China. Our capital could help them fix that.

For those of you who follow FluTrackers, one of the long time moderators, Tetano, is a pediatrician in Northern Italy. He is going to be absent from FluTrackers for a while. Prayers for him and his family, and all families in harm’s way today.

I remember that. I still can’t imagine Gov Abbott, or was it Perry, back then ?? NOT knowing, in advance, that the “Baptist” and Cathoic Charities groups were organizing/preparing for this.
