Everyone should refer to this contagion as what it is, the Wuhan Flu.
corona solves the homeless problem.....silver linings and all
Meanwhile the regular flu is killing folks here left and right with kids being hurt the worst.
Did you even know how the flu impacted the world three weeks ago?
It not even worth debating this tripe any more.
more creeps crawling out from under their rocks..
Well so far in the US during this regular flu season 20,000 people have died including 135 kids but heck, since 2,300 or so died world-wide that’s more important due to this C-virus media panic.
That is the way I see it. Only the camps will be communities instead of camps.
This thing IS NOT containable. Its out and CAN NOT BE CONTAINED.
The best thing to do is manage it by a quarantine of the rest homes, and allow for self quarantine by those who have underlying health issues. Those we help by providing them IN HOME medical treatment-remember when doctors made house calls? The only time the military should be used, and the only way, is by having them go out (medical outfits) to those homes to supplement the medical profession.
The rest? Let it run its course.
They are acting like this is like the great plagues.
What a panic.
Let’s check those numbers then...
Approximately 100,000 cases worldwide with about 4000 dead. Lets crank up the numbers a bit while keeping the same ratio.
1,000,000 cases would yield 40,000 dead.
10,000,000 would yield 400,000 dead.
Sounds fairly serious to me...
100,000,000 infections would yield 4,000,000 dead, and that is less than 10 percent of the planet population in infected.
Multiply by 7 to get to ~10% and anticipated deaths rise to 28,000,000.
Nothing to worry about...
Granted the numbers are not exact but a difference of 1 or 2 million here or there won’t make that much difference.

Martial law? It has already happened in NY.
Hey! No dissing the Dragons! They ARE 1-4! HAHA! Kinda like the Hawks 20 years ago.
Ok. Go to any hospital in the country. I will wait.
Find a bed. You probably wont. Because they full of flu patients. Lets send 40 people to that hospital with severe respiratory failure. Where are they going to go? Double them up? Who gets the respiratory.
You flu bros are idiots. You dont know how the system works. You think you either get one or the other. This is happening at the same time.
FFS, think about how people flow through the system. You have a brain. Try using it to think beyond your ridiculous talking point.

The South Korans and trying something. Compare the numbers of deaths South Korean vs. Italy.
Man, you could be exposed before that. A man tested positive yesterday in a town about 20 miles from me after a trip to California. That is community-spread, of course. This morning it was announced that this wife and THREE YEAR OLD daughter have the virus. I’m concerned with so many on FR taking this so lightly.
California and Italy are about the same size and have about the same populations. California today has the same numbers as Italy had two weeks ago. Great Britain, Germany, France are about two weeks behind Italy. This is not a political situation, it’s a matter of life and health.
I hope I’m wrong, but I’d much rather for people to say I over reacted now, than me say I told you so.
Thanks dickkwad. I went to the article to scan for the word outhouse thinking it had to do with fecal transmission of the virus.
Please... Good grief.
The snakes living there would . . . plus it is the center of many technology companies.
That family is about 3 miles from me.
You listed Colloidal Silver. That is total B.S. Never take Colloidal Silver for anything. It has not been proven is cures a thing. The FDA is fining people who sell it. It turns people permanently grey. I am mad at you for putting Colloidal Silver as a protection from a virus infection.
Your figures are wrong. Twenty of those who died in King County were residents of Life Care Center, a nursing home in Kirkland, according to Public Health - Seattle & King County.
