WTF is the deal with the caronavirus?
« on: March 03, 2020, 02:56:14 PM »
Will there be no Olympics? Chinese shipments to the Port of LA down 25% in February. Panic buying of masks?

I have not been freaked out by this, but with so many people freaking out I started reading about the 1918 Spanish Flu and now wonder whether I should be freaking out and not touching the handrail walking down the stairs to the Blue Line or the handrail on the treadmill at the gym....

Any thoughts? Where is Murph to reassure us that everything will be ok?

Chance are everyone on earth will die except a select few who will be inextricably drawn to Las Vegas for an ultimate showdown between good and evil.

Somebody should write a book about that.

Trump just discovered what almost nobody knew -- a lot of people die from the flu, thousands and thousands. He is instructing the pharmaceutical companies to get off their hinies and make a flu vaccine that works. 

Trump has done the best job ever responding to the Corona Beer Virus hoax. Only 9  have died, compared to millions who died before Obama bothered to declare an emergency response to the 2009 hydrogen dioxide crisis.

I figure touching aspects of the blue line is the only way to gain immunity to every virus on Earth.

I don’t know what the appropriate amount to freak out over this is, but I think it’s way more than Trump wants us to freak out, and probably less than some other people do. This isn’t Ebola, but it seems to be passed pretty easily. We have had just over 100 cases in the US, and 6 people have died. That may not seem like a lot, but if 10 million people get it, that’s over a half a million deaths. Most of us will know someone who died from the corona virus if it gets to that point.

Darvish and Kipnis pulled from today's Cub exhibition game due to flu-like symptoms. Are they hiding that they have the carona virus????

Tired: Buy Clorox stock due to coronavirus
Wired: Buy Costco stock.

Costco looks to be a complete shit show. Hell, even Whole Foods was sold out of water and TP. Who the hell buys TP at Whole Foods? 50% more expensive for organic TP, whatever the hell that means, except "won't wipe my ass". I may be a crunchy granola hippie but that's a bridge too far.

And why the hell do you stock up on water? I guess maybe people are figuring "Well, if I am going to buy 80 packages of pasta and all these canned vegetables, I might as well refresh my earthquake kit"
