mission27 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) Since this is going to apparently kill us all, thought it deserved a thread. The MoL will smugly outlive all of you though.

MacReady Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 The only thing scary about it is whether or not a single one of the conspiracy theories are true. Like if a single one of those conspiracy theories about it is true, I’d be pretty terrified, but I feel like this is slightly worse than Ebola, and maybe not even as bad as Ebola, just spreads quicker. I’m not a doctor though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mission27 Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 The entire Ebola epidemic ongoing since 2014 has only infected 28k vs. 81k people infected by Corona in the past 2 months BUT almost half the people who got Ebola died Scary in a different way tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes me nervous tbh is many of the effective measures China has taken to slow down and contain the virus would be impossible in Western Europe and North America because we have civil rights Advantage of single party authoritarian rule I guess The MoL would happily step in to this role if asked tbh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like a more deadly flu virus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacReady Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 What would really scare me is if even one of the deaths came back to life because we’d be in big trouble then. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theJ Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 I think I'll continue to ignore this like I have been for two months. Wake me up when we get millions infected and there's actually a statistically relavent chance that I might catch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
