Covid 19 - We are all screwed - discuss

And US is gaining speed and get closer to Italy's statistics day after day. At the Sunday morning there is 433 cases of covid-19, 17 deaths and 8 recovered. There is no need to be alarmed about those numbers, it doesn't mean nothing that there is twice as much dead people than recovered people in the US, as only country on this planet  

They don't tell about nationalities of those dead in Italy ?.

On every AC Milan & Inter football match you could see 100's of Chinese fans mix with 1000's of local supporters !.

[Primemuscle]

Facts about Italy: over dozen of clothing factories around Milan, they employ Chinese workers as a cheap labour,

some places have 50 Chinese, others to 400.They work & live together !.

So, guess who introduced this flu to Milan/Lombardi !. 

Just because the outbreak seems to have originated in China, does not signify that it is a Chinese based virus. If that were the case Chinese folks would exclusively have it. Unless some of those Chinese workers in the garment factories very recently either immigrated from or returned after a visit to China the likelihood they have anything to do with the alarmingly expeditious spread of the coronavirus in Italy is merely coincidental. Whatever connection there may be between the number of cases in each location has not yet been established.

There have been 16 deaths from the coronavirus in Washington state. Fourteen are associated with Life Care Center In Kirkland. It is a senior assisted living facility. Elderly people have so far been the most severely impacted with critical cases of the coronavirus and with the highest percentage of deaths.

The disease originates from China, from Wuhan. This indicates it is a 'China based virus.'

Yes well, I may have worded my post badly. The point is that it would be a mistake to think that just because someone is Chinese they are spreading the virus. Since anyone can get the virus, it should follow that anyone can spread it too. It is of course possible that someone who came from China or someone who traveled to China and back brought the virus with them. Since Italian clothing manufacturer workers make "sweatshop wages" it is not likely a lot of them can afford to vacation in China. One possibility is that some Chinese folks who recently came to Italy to work, were already sick with the virus.

A lot of those 'sweatshop' factories use Chinese workers, often illegally.

Especially those producing counterfeit clothing, such as in Naples.

Yes this is likely true. However, only if those workers came to Italy fairly recently and already infected with the coronavirus, would their being Chinese have anything to do with the outbreak in Italy. The main point is it would be a mistake and grossly misleading to suggest only Chinese people spread the virus.

Every virus has an origin. A point zero, if you will. We often never really know what that point was or is.

Can you breakdown this guy's thoughts?His call on Italy 3 weeks before it even happened was way too accurate for him not to be telling the truth.

Italy has placed up to 16 million people under quarantine as it battles to contain the spread of coronavirus.

Anyone living in Lombardy and 14 other central and northern provinces will need special permission to travel. Milan and Venice are both affected.

Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte also announced the closure of schools, gyms, museums, nightclubs and other venues across the whole country.

The measures, the most radical taken outside China, will last until 3 April.

Italy has seen the largest number of coronavirus infections in Europe, with the number of confirmed cases jumping by more than 1,200 to 5,883 on Saturday.

The strict new quarantine measures affect a quarter of the Italian population and centre on the rich northern part of the country that powers its economy.

The death toll in Italy has passed 230, with officials reporting more than 36 deaths in 24 hours.

You ain't fooling me with this Fonzie shit. I know you're prepped. Pshit, you're probably one of those second level guys who keeps a rural bunker stocked with carbon filters and multiple backup gen 3 tubes. Drop the camo tho. It's the wrong time to advertise.


Lol, pool's closed.

We don't discuss evac plans on the internets. Everyone has camo, means nothing these days. Especially with all the yuppies buying clothes at Bass Pro.

All I want to do is go in and get some lead weights, roboworms and a couple of Kastmasters and it's filled with pretty boy bitches and their overscented wives looking for beef jerky and camouflaged crocs.

I understand that.   I don't hunt or fish.  I'm pretty much the guy you bring along because you can't outrun a bear but you can outrun me.

I can't shoot a gun for shit.  One of my brothers is retired LEO and he just accepts that his bigger brother while very conservative, just can't man-up when it comes to like most guys can.   I can't even run away, LOL!

I've been to a Bass Pro and a Cabela's one time each but that was with friends that bow hunt.  They acted like they didn't know me.

Stock up on non-perishables, tp, medical stuff/bandages/anti-septic etc, water all that. Own a firearm and be smart.

Don't succumb to media driven panic, they are trying to make you lose your shit and are praying you get infected and die. Anything that can drive a panic and hurt the current President and Admin will be deployed. If you aren't 60+ years old with comorbidities you'll (likely) be okay. Wash hands, clean your house, if you have ticket to a concert in a place that has a ton of cases...........DON'T GO. Use your head.

Spend 200 bucks today, tie up some loose ends and you're ahead of the game.

There you go.

Oh great...I'm 60+ with a physical handicap to go along with being a mental midget.  That's two strikes.  I'm not looking for a third.

You need vissy to start brewing some high alcohol content moonshine in his cauldron. Drinking it has been working wonders at killing the coronavirus for the Iranians.

It's also killing them too, but that's neither here nor there.

So many 'hard working Afro refugees' in Italy & they need to import Chinese workers !.

OBW, Chinese need Italian visa  .

Hope goatfuckers and those with "alternative" lifestyles get it too

They can't survive for too long without sweets, dry dates/figs
