Wuhan Coronavirus: Megathread - Got too big

[TheJelqster]

You still have to multiply it by 6 times to get the mortality rate of the Flu.


But we do this shit every 5 years "OMG This disease might be spreading, time to freak out!!!!!" *6 months later nothing has happened.*

5 years ago was the Ebola virus, correct? Basic sanitisation/rapid mutation saved the day. Here, the virus seems to be mutating extremely fast to increase the spread of infection.

The book is 10x better tbh. You can also read it when the power goes out

Also after the collapse of modern civilization as a result of the pandemic, your illiterate grandchildren can use the book as kindling or toilet paper.

You realize that China said THIS catastrophe only killed like 100 people despite occurring in a densely populated area and being one of the largest non-nuclear explosions?

Tianjin blasts: eyewitnesses capture explosions on film, then flee – video

A video filmed by stunned eyewitness, Dan Van Duren, captures the moment huge explosions tore through an industrial area in Chinese port city Tianjin

www.theguardian.com

The building contained like 50x the legal amount of some industrial chemical and was owned by a government official's nephew. Afterwards the rain burned peoples skin and there were reports of a weird foam on the ground. If you think China is a pillar of honesty, I have a bridge to sell you.

Also this. There's just too many factors at play here, which makes you think of all the things that could go wrong. Gives me the shakes and I'm normally calm in these apocalypto scenarios. Going to walk my dog and let the cold winter air soothe my overly warm blood.

Yeah, except the circumstances are different this time.

It is always "different" this time, here is what we (in the west do, China is fucked..but well that is their fault for being dirty Reds) do.

1. Wash your hands like a normal person
2. Drink some Extra OJ to boost up the immune system
3. Don't sperg out and think the world is going to end.

Sure China's economy is going to go to shit if this gets out of hand..but China's economy was always destined to go to shit.

 

[TheJelqster]

Because they are moronic Commies who make the majority of their population live in such filth and squalor shit like this is actually deadly, unlike say..Burgerland who don't shit in our hand and lick our fingers clean (Except for California but again...Commies run that place too)

I agree that it probably won't affect America hard, but America is only one country out 200ish countries. If we lose 100 million folks worldwide but not a single American, that's still a pandemic.

 

[NIGGER ASS PEE POOPY RAPE]

James O'Shaughnessy, MD just confirmed that the virus actually has a 60% kill rate, not 2%.

when was the last time 50 million people were quarantined? when was the last time a lethal virus with a 2 week incubation period went global? when was the last time the chinese government closed down 15+ cities and sacrificing billions in revenue. you don't see this shit go down when someone has a regular flu...

OJ doesn't do shit BTW. You piss out the extra vitamin C you don't need.

I mean Pandemic is Pandemic sure, but "Pandemic" and "END OF THE WORLD REEEEEE" are two different things.

There is a wide area between

"Well that is not good." and "The Human Race is doomed" This very likely ends with 1,000,000 or more Chinese Peasants dead which sucks, I would like the number to be zero..but well Maybe instead of spending Billions to fucking screw around with some stupid One Road, One Belt bullshit..they start working on getting basic running water to their poorest people so they don't live the same way they did before Jesus came down and got nailed to some plywood.

OJ doesn't do shit BTW. You piss out the extra vitamin C you don't need.

Yeah but how many folks do you think actually have as much Vitamin C as they should in their diet of Steak/Potatos or Bugs/Soy depending on location. That isn't a "Magical cure" suggestion that is a "Hey, make sure the tank is topped off to be safe" suggestion.

PS : I am one of those folks who probably doesn't have enough Vitamin C in their diet.

Could any fellow China folk verify?

 

[GnomeofDoc]

You'd think they would have those portable concrete barriers that everyone else in the world uses for blocking off vehicle access.

Yeah I am kinda doubting that photo is actually current.

Granted it could just be a field expedience thing but I would think they would have some Jersey Barriers or some knockoff HESCO stuff. Not making a fucking literal cobblestone wall, I am doubting this info until further notice.

 

[Kaede Did Nothing Wrong]

So not to derail the thread but any good Chinese Zombie films to watch to get into the mood of things or they are disliked over there like ghost movies?

it's korean but The Host is a good monster movie that also includes a pandemic scare with martial law.

So... Everyone seems to be going apeshit over the outbreak. Should I actually be worried about this? Or is it just swine flu 2.0 with all this mass panic?

no reason to panic. but imo the stakes are a novel virus which does more damage than the common flu and spreads faster. think of how the flu mutates and comes back every season, except instead of the flu it's very serious cases of pneumonia that might permanently harm even healthy people. I hope it isn't as bad as people are guessing because it will make life real shitty and we won't even get to shoot zombies or daywalkers for catharsis.

Oh noes it has a minuscule fatality rate THE WORLD IS SURELY ENDING!

that's almost 3%, which is greater than the 1918 flu pandemic.

Real world 101: don't listen to words, watch actions. The numbers China is providing do not worry me, but their scorched-earth, pants-on-head response is honestly concerning and certainly "different this time." At some point, very likely in our lifetimes, one of these events is going to be real. The early stages will play out exactly like this, i.e., misinformation, obfuscation, government panic. It's rational to take this seriously and perform some measured precautions before it's at your door, even if these usually don't amount to anything.

If people are recovering, why tear out the roads?

Why tear out the roads AT ALL? Just makes no sense. Surely this hasn't happened.

Check this out. Just link only, too much to put here. China has a huge problem with Wuhan in the state it is presently in.

the translation sounds correct

 

[Disrespected Pronouns]

Wish all these people would just calm the fuck down, this airborne and delayed-action virus will be a big fat nothingburger just like Ebola, a pandemic that was genuinly primarily defeated by getting Africans to stop frenching bloody corpses

 

[Slap47]

China is flexing its power.

 

[Rotollo]

yes but this wont get China to stop eating bats or to learn hygne. maybe they are the real country that needs to be told by jorden peterson to wash their balls and clean their room.
