It may be “too late,” Ki said, for countries deep into epidemics to control outbreaks as quickly or efficiently as South Korea has.

The only choice appears to be…

China turned back the catastrophic first outbreak in Hubei, a province larger than most European countries, though at the cost of shutting down its economy.

Why was Harvey Weinstein tested? And my two friends who have it, weren’t qualified for a test? This testing protocol is a mess . There needs to be a home test developed quickly.

The report says the deceased was tested and the headline says she was not tested. And she first declined the test so that someone else could take it. So what is the take away from this post?

Should we panic and run towards exit?

6 min Later: Actually the headline says she was waiting for the test results. Oh man these twist of words can be confusing. Anyway, she was tested after she first declined due to shortage of test kits.

Did she test positive for corona virus or died of some other cause?

Where’s buyinghouse to engage pandey

She was Russian, should have drunk a lot more vodka. We were at Carson Costco today. My wife is hoarding vodka. There was no sanitizer or TP. But plenty of food, Tylenol, and booze.

You want WW3?

:scream:

Time to hoard malaria drugs and z pac.

I am a person of relaxed demeanor. Quarreling is not something I am good at.

Rumor is millennials are calling Covid the ‘Boomer Remover’…

Vodka and tonic should become the new hot cocktail. Rumors are both can kill the virus.

This is funny for sure but do not let @hanera read this.

Semi-serious question, what vodka brand do you recommend?

Time for daily data update. Italy curve seems to be bending down. US not so much.

Death toll. You can clearly see Italian death deceleration. US deaths double every 3 days.

Region level death chart. NY deaths doubles everyday!! Italy’s Lombardia region is decelerating. Madrid not so much.

Rest of the world:

G&T’s are my drink of choice. Coincidentally went to load up on tonic this weekend and it was sold out almost everywhere. Finally found the last three bottles of Safeway-brand tonic hidden away.

Pandey has been buying the bay area supply of his miracle drug. :joy:

I second this… They’ll deal with him really quickly.

That said, this guy is in real trouble if someone in the area dies. He said he lives in Concord area? And he’s got a tattoo on his neck. He’s going to be really easy to find and get even with… And we all have evidence of him endangering others.

The biggest problem with these people is that they will bring a police state on us and people who are using their “out and about” minutes prudently will be hurt in the process. :frowning:

This is why I stocked up though. Pisses me off when people on FB accuse those who stocked up of being greedy and self-focussed, because they didn’t bother to go out and create their own reserve and now they can’t buy flour or TP… I stocked up in case we weren’t allowed to leave our property. And now with people like the above flouting the directives, the US could move to a police state, and it’s going to be a whole new, possibly brutal, world that we’re not used to. The Chinese understand where the boundaries are because they’ve lived in it for years. Sucks, but they know what they can and can’t do. But in the US, we haven’t had to deal with this. How hard will the police push? How many riots will there be? How many innocent deaths because the police can’t tell the difference between the young adult who needs food for her baby and the young adult who is indifferent to the rules?
