Wait... and they're letting them go? I'm sorry but this should not be a decision they get to make.

The fuck?

"You're at risk, you should be tested"

"But I wanna go home already"

"Bet. Enjoy your day"

Like, shit. I had staph once and wanted to leave and the hospital wouldn't let me till they ran all the proper tests.

Fictional Pandemic event exercise that took place in 2019, and was hosted by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation:

http://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/scenario.html

The Event 201 scenario

Event 201 simulates an outbreak of a novel zoonotic coronavirus transmitted from bats to pigs to people that eventually becomes efficiently transmissible from person to person, leading to a severe pandemic. The pathogen and the disease it causes are modeled largely on SARS, but it is more transmissible in the community setting by people with mild symptoms.

The disease starts in pig farms in Brazil, quietly and slowly at first, but then it starts to spread more rapidly in healthcare settings. When it starts to spread efficiently from person to person in the low-income, densely packed neighborhoods of some of the megacities in South America, the epidemic explodes. It is first exported by air travel to Portugal, the United States, and China and then to many other countries. Although at first some countries are able to control it, it continues to spread and be reintroduced, and eventually no country can maintain control.

There is no possibility of a vaccine being available in the first year. There is a fictional antiviral drug that can help the sick but not significantly limit spread of the disease.

Since the whole human population is susceptible, during the initial months of the pandemic, the cumulative number of cases increases exponentially, doubling every week. And as the cases and deaths accumulate, the economic and societal consequences become increasingly severe.

The scenario ends at the 18-month point, with 65 million deaths. The pandemic is beginning to slow due to the decreasing number of susceptible people. The pandemic will continue at some rate until there is an effective vaccine or until 80-90 % of the global population has been exposed. From that point on, it is likely to be an endemic childhood disease.

Multiple GOP senators are being called out for insider trading due to Corona. After that 1/24 closed door hearing, they dumped a bunch of stock and some bought stock in teleworking companies

These pieces of shit KNEW we would be facing this and these were the same people bitching that we were overreacting and that it was "just the flu" or a "democrat hoax"

Fucking scum. Don't care what party you are, you should want to hold these shitbags accountable

Atleast FOUR GOP Republican Senators have been caught, sadly I don't think they will face an repercussions and that they will actually be reelected. Fuck the Republicans.

Kelly Loeffler is getting scrutinized for selling millions of stock holdings back on January 24th after a briefing with other Senators. This is crazy because it just gives more credibility to that original 4chan thread around the same time, whose main point of the post initially was to pull your stocks. His post went on to be pretty damn accurate, too.

Crazy theory out there that this virus has been out in the usa for at least 6 months and a lot of americans got it already and got sick and just thought it was a flu bug or something.

Not just crazy but a central part of the ccp's propaganda push online. One of the main tinfoil hat theories over on their social media etc is that the virus originated from, or has at least been spreading in the US, or sometimes Japan, since before china got it.. OC there is never any explanation for why they think the US or Japan.. other than the fact that they don't like either. Also no explanation of why or how a virus linked directly to bats living in the heart of china, ended up breaking out half way around the world first.

Yeah, same. Got messages from my friend waking up covered in hives. She got sick a day before me last week and recovered before me. I am wondering if I am going to get hit with a second illness.

Can anyone confirm if it's common to get sick, better, then sick again with covid?

Hives are not a SARS2 symptom, as far as I can remember based on the reports I randomly read before? So maybe her immunity system was weakened and she got hit by something else? I'm definitely not an expert tho.

And yes, that's how SARS2 works. You fight off symptoms, then it looks like you're fine again, and then SARS2 resurfaces with stronger symptoms. It might be the reason why China and Japan though it would be capable of reinfection

Choco posted...

To be exact, no meeting others.
You are allowed to travel to work and back, you are allowed to walk outside for a bit of fresh air, you are allowed to do sports.

However, police will control that you are only allowed to do it alone or with family members. Break the rule and you lose a large sum of money.
