The Coronavirus thread

We should ship all our infected to Canada, they have that socialized Heath care, or better yet Cuba, the best in the socialized world

You first!
 
My prediction of the future, shaking hands will become a thing of the past, elbow bumps will become the greeting gesture of the new world

The priest told us to give each other the what's up head instead of shaking hands for the sign of peace during Mass.

This virus could point to the glaring problem with the US Healthcare System. Not everyone has health insurance, so not everyone will get checked or treated, which would
cause a disease like this to spread further.

It is the private agencies that are close to finding a cure. If you had your way, there would not be private agencies, therefore no cure. If you had your way, we would have open boarders, and end up like those morons in Europe. Name me one person who does not have access to health care.
 
Well, unlike a bacterial infection, a virus has no cure, and only symptoms can be treated, which really doesn't require a lot of medical attention, just common sense.

And unlike the H1N1 strain, there is no vaccine for corona yet, but keep pushing your political ideology that the sky is falling.

Smallpox. But anti-viral medications/vaccinations have been more difficult/complex to develop for sure. 21 is an idiot is really the overarching theme here.

Cough ....cough. . Hi flu here! What’s the difference


Outbreak management has many layers. Look at measles for example. For the most part, here in the states contained and unheard of. Until a bunch of hippy moms said “not my child” because of a stupid story linking it to Austism. Debunked and proved false but moms still said no.

Why happened, outbreaks left and right.

There are many layers, vaccination when available, proper hygiene ie wash your ******* hands, don’t go to public places when your ******* sick.

When all else fails, Spike page 1....get a gun

I was going to write out a response to this tripe, but you're such an idiot and a troll, it's not even worth it. And before you say "but ha! I got you to respond in some way" I just wanted to point out that you're an idiot beyond all human comprehension. And you were going to write a book at one point? A coloring book? Paint by numbers?
 
A few years ago OSHA banned companies from tying safety achievements to bonuses or incentive plans because it led to idiotic cover ups and reduced reporting minor issues that inevitably led to huge issues...

Its really time the same is done for attendance rewards... I despise idiots who come into work ill... all it does is pass around a potentially productivity stymieing sickness... its the worse business practice there is...

Problem is when folks have no PTO to use and income is a must. The only that works if the employer is flexible.

The smallpox vaccine led the the eradication of the virus, but the point I was trying to make was a national, government healthcare system would result in a decline in healthcare in this country, not the opposite as implied by 21.

We may run out of berg's to float them on.
Use old mine shafts and lime for convenient disposal.

A lot of people are saying this whole thing was hatched by Republicans as an attempt to distract people from and make an excuse for the #Trumpslump of the stock market.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose over 1,294 points today. Just as the Republicans planned it.

Sa-wing batter batter batter... sa-wing. LOL

Not everyone should get checked or treated. It will cause mild cold or flu-like illness in most people and then they will recover. The last thing we need is a bunch of mildly ill people flooding doctors offices and hospitals where really sick people need to be.

Who decides who is sick enough?

OK, it’s NOT about having only mild symptoms. It about being aware you have it and NOT spreading the contagion.

The armchair epidemiology around here is ridiculous.

Um, you're the one that brought up the "glaring problem with the US healthcare system."

I agree, be aware, wash your hands, don't touch your face unnecessarily, if you're sick stay home, use common sense.
 
Liberals are not only making the virus political, as some of our residents are, but some in elected offices want to KILL Trump supporters.

The Left is a Dark, Dark place.

Denver City Communist encourages liberals to spread coronavirus at Trump rallies…


https://noqreport.com/2020/03/03/de...y-for-spreading-coronavirus-at-trump-rallies/

The coronavirus is in the process of paralyzing much of the world as tens, perhaps hundreds of thousands of people have already been infected. The death toll continues to rise daily and Americans are getting very antsy as it dominates much of the news cycle. But a recent hideous trend on social media has leftists claiming if they are infected, they will be going to campaign rallies for President Trump, presumably with the intention of spreading the deadly disease to his supporters.

One such person is Denver City Councilwoman Candi CdeBaca, who Tweeted “#solidarity Yaaaas!!” while Tweet-quoting “For the record, if I get the coronavirus I’m attending every MAGA rally I can.”

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="und" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/solidarity?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#solidarity</a> Yaaaas!! &#55358;&#56611;&#55358;&#56611;&#55358;&#56611;✊&#55356;&#57342;&#55357;&#56396;&#55356;&#57342; <a href="https://t.co/PhgyQ0WmP0">https://t.co/PhgyQ0WmP0</a></p>— Councilwoman Candi CdeBaca (@CandiCdeBacaD9) <a href="https://twitter.com/CandiCdeBacaD9/status/1233407795170627586?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 28, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

This isn’t the first time the Councilwoman, who was elected last year, has stirred up controversy for her unhinged views. A video of her calling for “community ownership of land, labor, resources, and distribution of those resources,” came to the public eye last year, but only after she had won her election.

“And whatever that morphs into is, I think, what will serve community the best, and I’m excited to usher it in by any means necessary,” she concluded. She has since claimed she is not a communist, but it clearly sounds like she’s advocating for communism with this detailed explanation of her economic ideology.
 
Oh, stop with the hyperbole about leftists, TSF. Most Bernie supporters are gentle as a summer rain, generous as a billionaire Mormon, and helpful as Ikea furniture assembly directions. So some Sanders campaign officials - actually part of the campaign - talk about re-education camps and gulags. So what? So another liberal talks about intentionally spreading a serious virus to political opponents? Big deal. So Antifa attacks people for wearing a hot, badly injures many? Again, no issue here. Knock off the gaslighting.

Wait, a guy who owns a red hat - not a MAGA hat, mind you, but the damn thing is RED - said something somebody else thought that somebody else heard and told a fourth guy who told a fifth guy that might have been, maybe off-putting to certain people of color??

TRUMP SUPPORTERS ARE RACIST!!

Completely agree. Revolutionaries are always rules-following, gentle, self-effacing types.

You have hit the nail on the head. Just like Antifa, which hits an unarmed, non-violent reporter Andy Ngo in the face with a cement-filled water bottle and causes brain injury.

But that ******* deserved it because ... something. Conservative, I think.

Similar to Trumptards posting memes about Romney being named Ambassador to Wuhan?

Not quite man, a joke versus a very possible threat of intentional spread of a disease to a large group of people? One is funny the other based on the potential that it could actually happen and be a real call to do it make them dissimilar. You are an asshat.
