CORONAVIRUS Death Thread

[BlackBellamy]

Post if you have the virus or know someone who does!

So here is my setup: A P100 rated mask, with a good soft seal and head straps. Goggles, room enough for reading glasses, nice foam seal around the edge. Balaclava to hold it all together and minimize skin exposure. Not pictured: guns and boxes of ramen noodles.

Have you been checked for hookworm recently?

Oh hello there my biggest fan didn't see you right behind me breathing down my neck

Hookworm infection is an infection by a type of intestinal parasite known as a hookworm. Initially, itching and a rash may occur at the site of infection. Those only affected by a few worms may show no symptoms. Those infected by many worms may experience abdominal pain, diarrhea, weight loss, and tiredness.

Showing no symptoms so I'm going to pass on the bodily inspection, gday sir

I’m working the ski season in Niigata Japan this year, and this week is Chinese New Year so we’re flooded with a bunch of folks from China, Singapore, and Malaysia.

People are buying up face masks from all the stores like hot cakes. It’s impossible to find them back in China and Japan has a shit load of them. Saw a lady at the hotel last night with a pile big enough to fill multiple checked bags.

Yeah, lot of the drug stores down here in Fukuoka are sold out as well due to all the Chinese tourists (and locals getting nervous about the spread). Japan flying back hundreds from Wuhan into Narita with no quarantine procedures and just telling them "stay home and keep an eye out for symptoms" is fairly risky.

I'm going to use common sense logic and reasoning to evaluate this "situation".

Had the government or media ever lied before to terrorize a large population? Yes constantly, too much proof to even bother posting of researching right now.

The goal: to scare everyone.
The tool: lying

If : the government wants to scare everyone
Then: they will lie to do it

So i would say there is some truth in most lies that's what makes them good lies. So basically you have to be honest with yourself. Does the government(media) lie constantly? That's the answer.

Yes they lie constantly to scare the population

[Smellybuttface]

Mainland China now has more cases of coronavirus than it had of SARS, a respiratory infection that spread across China in 2002 and 2003 and killed 774 people in 17 countries. During the SARS outbreak, China had 5,327 cases and 349 deaths, according to the World Health Organization.

The number of confirmed cases increased to more than 7,700 worldwide by early Thursday, according to Chinese officials and the World Health Organization, with all but 68 of the infections taking place in mainland China. On Wednesday, there were about 6,000 infections worldwide.

You guys should hop on Harvard X and do a course in community health to learn the importance in preventative measures and primary health care in controlling epidemics.

Your two ideas are its a conspiracy to cause fear or a conspiracy to downplay.

The truth is in the middle; its just another flu, flu is sometimes deadly, some flus particularly so. China is pretty experienced in managing flu epidemics, likely things will be fine: news papers make their money sensationalising.

Just hope it doesn’t make it to America because the states are ideologically opposed to public investment on preventative measures and primary healthcare even though the returns on investment are incredible.

Jims the only one talking sense. I suspect as usual Sol is trolling for attention but since a number of people always swoop in and say he is an elite troll who knows or indeed cares.

Denying a flu outbreak is happening and taking no preventative measures etc is as bad as rural africans hiding people who are clearly infected and suspecting the government is the one causing the outbreak (ala smallpox).

Only they have an excuse for the low education level. Smallpox was eradicated by vacination, its not a theory. It happened.

Flu is real. You can pretend it isn't but alas it cares little of your skin colour, race, accent or what you do or dont believe in. It infects you all the same and if its nasty flu (e.g. sars or spanish) then you roll your D10 and take your chances.

I guess we will soon find out which it is. <shrug>

We will never know the truth because if the virus didn't get them then it was a bullet to the back of the head. Still, it's really really weird that all these viruses just happen to be epicentered around their biological warfare center. It's some mighty coinkidink fer sure!

[galach]

A coronavirus spontaneously mutated and jumped to humans at a wet market or deep in some random bat cave which just so happened to be 20 miles from China’s only BSL-4 virology lab, a virus with an unusually slippery never-before-seen genome that’s evading zoological classification, and whose spike-protein region which allows it to enter host cells appears most like a bio-engineered commercial product, that somehow managed to infect its first three and roughly one-third of its initial victims despite them not being connected to this market, and then be so fined-tuned to humans that it’s gone on to create the single greatest public health crisis in Chinese history with approaching 100 million citizens locked-down or quarantined – also causing Mongolia to close its border with its largest trading partner for the first time in modern history.

Or, Chinese scientists failed to follow correct sanitation protocols possibly while in a rush during their boisterous holiday season, something that had been anticipated since the opening of the BSL-4 lab and has happened at least four times previously, and accidentally released this bio-engineered Wuhan Strain – likely created by scientists researching immunotherapy regimes against bat coronaviruses, who’ve already demonstrated the ability to perform every step necessary to bio-engineer the Wuhan Strain 2019-nCov – into their population, and now the world. As would be expected, this virus appears to have been bio-engineered at the spike-protein genes which was already done at UNC to make an extraordinarily virulent coronavirus. Chinese efforts to stop the full story about what’s going on are because they want the scales to be even since they’re now facing a severe pandemic and depopulation event. No facts point against this conclusion.


Not a scientist, but there seems to be a ton of information put into the article with links. Could all be wrong, but at least there is a strong paper trail instead of just stating it's true because they said it.

if I may quote the Most Esteemed Imam loramin:

There's a "law" like Goodwin's law (ie. one that's never been proven, but is self-evident to anyone whose spent time on internet forums) called Brandolini's law. It's also known as the law of bullshit asymmetry, and it states:

The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it.

That law is why it's a losing proposition to try to actually disprove everything someone like you or Mick says. I've tried doing it before, and even after spending (literally) orders of magnitude more time disproving something across pages and pages of forum posts, all I got was "ok I was wrong about one thing, but everything else I'm saying is true."

CDC knows the effectiveness year to year can vary, but overall it’s statistically very significant in softening the blow of the flu annually.

https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/14/health/flu-vaccine-effectiveness-cdc/index.html

Especially for children. Even 47% effectiveness is a relatively high percentage on a cost/benefit ratio. The cost of a flu shot is next to nothing (with most insurances having it cost-free), and it only requires a single shot. As a counter example, I had to get an anthrax vaccine when I was stationed overseas and it required 6 pretty painful shots, and the effectiveness % of the vaccine was fairly abysmal.

It’s surprising you don’t have it free to vulnerable groups (olds, weuns and carers). It’s so cheap and effective that the government would easily make back the cost due to prevented loss of revenue (sickness is bad for business and so reduces tax revenue).

Edit: for clarity I’m not saying I think the kids/elderly are working / being sick off work, i’m more thinking of people taking time off work to care for them, the sick not being out spending money, and the herd immunity effects immunising children will contribute to).

[BlackBellamy]

Do you guys feel like zombified? What's it like to be under mind control?

Here is mind control.

Couple of years ago they created something called the Pandemic Bonds. The idea is that people could invest in these bonds and the money would be used to help poor countries deal with pandemics. These bonds payed out an insane return of 6-11% over the LIBOR rate. The rush to invest was so powerful that these bonds were oversubscribed by like 200%.

Now, if you're an investor you get your interest no matter what. But, if the WHO declares an actual "pandemic" before maturation date, the investors lose the principal. The maturation date is July 15. If the WHO declares a pandemic before then, people lose billions. Or rather rich and powerful people and institutions lose billions.

There is the classical definition of what a pandemic is, which has clearly been met. It's a disease, it's now worldwide, ergo pandemic. However, the WHO uses a complicated set of criteria that basically allows them to choose when to declare a pandemic. In 2009 WHO declared a pandemic several weeks after the criteria for the definition of a classical pandemic had been met.

If the WHO declares a pandemic too early, a LOT of people are going to a giant bath. On the other hand, WHO declaring a pandemic is just the sort of stimulus that gets countries and people to realize it's serious and take preventive measures that save people lives in the end.

Meanwhile people think the WHO is this independent organization that cares about people's lives, not the profits of their wealthy friends and backers. Mind control.

The governments are downplaying because panic. Big Pharma lying about the vaccine being just months away because profits. The WHO delaying pandemic status because of investor pressure. Rumors about bioweapon status because China must be blamed. Everyone is going to get a piece of this thing, and they're going to use it as much as they can.

I could certainly see pressure being put on the WHO from the big money stakeholders in the bonds. Whether they cave to it though is another question

[cd288]

Here is mind control.

Couple of years ago they created something called the Pandemic Bonds. The idea is that people could invest in these bonds and the money would be used to help poor countries deal with pandemics. These bonds payed out an insane return of 6-11% over the LIBOR rate. The rush to invest was so powerful that these bonds were oversubscribed by like 200%.

Now, if you're an investor you get your interest no matter what. But, if the WHO declares an actual "pandemic" before maturation date, the investors lose the principal. The maturation date is July 15. If the WHO declares a pandemic before then, people lose billions. Or rather rich and powerful people and institutions lose billions.

There is the classical definition of what a pandemic is, which has clearly been met. It's a disease, it's now worldwide, ergo pandemic. However, the WHO uses a complicated set of criteria that basically allows them to choose when to declare a pandemic. In 2009 WHO declared a pandemic several weeks after the criteria for the definition of a classical pandemic had been met.

If the WHO declares a pandemic too early, a LOT of people are going to a giant bath. On the other hand, WHO declaring a pandemic is just the sort of stimulus that gets countries and people to realize it's serious and take preventive measures that save people lives in the end.

Meanwhile people think the WHO is this independent organization that cares about people's lives, not the profits of their wealthy friends and backers. Mind control.

Wait, circling back on this one. Are we talking about a different class of bonds? The two that people have been talking about have their payouts triggered by objective statistics that are totally not based on WHO calling it a pandemic. The first class of bonds is if the disease crosses an international border into a developing country and kills 20 or more people there, the investors in that class lose the principal. The second class is if the disease kills 2,500 or more people in a developing country (FYI, China is not considered a developing country for purpose of this bond definition).

Is there some other bond you're aware of that's specifically linked to when the WHO declares a pandemic?

This shit is destroying my portfolio. Thanks China.

This is the best time to invest if you have the cash

Hey man I don't read prospectuseses I just summarize badly sourced panic.

I was trying to figure out why the Class B haven't triggered yet with Iran and their 20+ but fine print says March 23 the earliest - something about a 12 week window from some event.

I was wondering why my Safeway had lines to the back of the store. This is getting interesting.

In England the tinned veg market is booming apparently, people being idiots.

How many cases are in the states now? I live in Japan and supermarkers are same as always. Just the face masks are sold out everywhere.

Japanese public schools are closed starting Monday, but it's not as serious as it sounds since there are only like 2 more weeks left in the Japanese school year anyway. People are shying away from large gatherings, but mostly daily life is the same as always.

Well we have the double dip as Corona Virus quarantine prepping vies against the annual ‘brexit deadline’ prepping (this year rebranded to ‘end of transition period’ deadline).

Clearly all scare mongering by ‘big tin’ (smashes ‘invest’ button).

They did some coverage on bbc radio 4. San Fran declared state of emergency, not because of any confirmed cases, but because it is a gateway city to China and corona/flu/cold pandemics can be effectively mitigated (i won’t say prevented) through awareness and precautionary measures.

It could be described as scaremongering, but if that reduces negative health outcomes and potentially reduces negative economic outcomes in the mid to long turn then perhaps that is justified.

[solleks]

Fear campaign. It's rude to dumbs

[solleks]

I want to know if politicians are lying knowingly. Are they in on the scam or are they just as clueless and under mind control. Do they have souls are they demons?

[solleks]

The politicians who propagate the lies are definite liars we know that. They chase titles and accolades we know that i theorize they might know it's bull shit butt don't care. They just want the rewards from the master

[BlackBellamy]

A politician with a soul? Born yesterday much?

[solleks]

Good point. Soul probably gone, lost all free will. Possessed by demons likely

[Hoppkins_Wytchfinder]

Looks like interest in the thread is petering out. The trolls are out to try and stoke up the subject :D

[solleks]

Ya no one likes to talk about reality most prefer fantasy fear campaign.

[Hoppkins_Wytchfinder]

Well if all else fails you can fall back on autism jokes i guess

[solleks]

Jokes? What jokes

[Hoppkins_Wytchfinder]

Luckily i don't need to quantify my statement anymore than you have to justify your poll of who is autistic. In any case at least its the weekend.

[solleks]

Sorry you hate autistic people

[Hoppkins_Wytchfinder]

mmmmhmmmm

[solleks]

I can envision a population that doesn't much care what demons say and doesn't give respect to demons

[Hoppkins_Wytchfinder]
