International Coronavirus Breaking News, v6

[Stoic1]

Stock up on food and water.

Trump said we will have a vaccine “very rapidly” so since he said that we should all be ok: the stupid CDC scientist said 18 months but I think Trump would know better than a scientist

This isn't funny to you - but it would be hillarious to me.

If you had the Corona virus and Trump had the vaccine in his hand I am absolutely certain you would choose death over taking the cure.

I think Trump is doing what most governments are doing which is trying to keep people calm. Although some are doing it in a way that endangers people.

Shut downs everywhere is going to impact people's lives. Does the government give viral welfare cheques to all these people?

Isn't that pretty fast for a vaccine to he useable?

It is a nebulous and loose statement, regardless.

Closed Cases
39,383
Cases which had an outcome:
36,525 (93%)
Recovered / Discharged

2,858 (7%)
Deaths

So this keeps on dropping. Most of the info is from China so not sure how reliable it is or if at all. lol

So WinnIpeg authorities decided to let all passengers except the one that had covid19 symptoms off to go home about their business. So it’s now here for me .

You've been a good sherdogger, bro. I hope you are ready. I feel that you will make it.

Geez can anyone think of a more incompetent person to handle a potential pandemic than Trump.

My god

Pence

I can see why you would think that and I could be persuaded. I feel at least Pence appears to be somewhat organized. Trump won’t spend 5 minutes even learning about the virus and potential impacts. I feel Pence will make virtually all the wrong choices but will at least do his homework.

Imo pence is worse.

maybe but Pence, while a complete nut job in his own right is I think 0.0003% more equipped to handle this.

Trump is doing what he thinks will get him re-elected. That’s his only focus. He doesn’t even know how to spell corona virus

How does posts like these are Breaking News on the Coronavirus in any shape or form? Do I really need to add "partisan American shitheads" into the OP??

I honestly thought since this is a worldwide epidemic, the usual partisan Americans would have better control over their shit posting in an International thread, but I was wrong. As soon as Trump started tweeting, you are whipped into a frenzy like rabid dogs, like you always do, with absolutely zero consideration for the threads you are derailing.

@Madmick @Revolver @irish_thug Can you please move all the shit posts from all the clueless newcomers who suddenly appeared in this discussion since the tail end of v5 til now, solely because Trump compelled them to, over to a new thread so they can duke it out over there? A title like "Coronavirus: How Partisan Americans feel about Trump and Pence" would be suitable, I think.

That way the rest of us can focus on the actual topic of Coronavirus Breaking News. Thanks.

That looks like a cemetery to me. When the camera moves to the right you can see a few headstones there. It's strange they are not using that area though, maybe they are not supposed to identify these people. Or perhaps they are respecting some tradition.

Hey @Kafir-kun do you mind shedding some light here? I'm guessing you know the answers even though you're not shia.

They should be cremating those bodies but that's not allowed in Islam, right? Is there a separate burial area for "unclean" bodies? Or anything that would justify what was happening there? Thanks!

Considering this tweet.. You know the guy who's decision making is going to dictate where this goes..




And considering it was you who was moaning about "cheap political shots" exclusively from the Left.. Your reaction is ridiculous.

Just like in the Iran/US conflict thread, you made a huge deal about Trump's tweets being posted even though he was the reason it was ever a thing.. As if what he says doesn't matter.

Get Trump's dick out of your mouth, the real TDS is clearly being shown by yourself.

 

[Madmick]

Fuck you you lying sack...

Trump appointing Pence and now blocking any senior scientist or doctor from directly addressing the media (something they have ALL done in all such instances before) is a clear attempt by Trump to control the narrative to his message only.

Excuse me? Please, point me to where Trump has issued an executive order restricting public health officials from speaking to the press about COVID-19.

Don't talk about completely unrelated topics like his order in 2018 or the USGS unless you intend to explain how the USGS turned into the CDC overnight.

Mick has just turned into a full on troll in the last few years

Are you seriously so stupid you bought the shit he just wrote?

I don't know what to tell you, man. In the Mayberry I could kick them out. Maybe it would be better if you started threads for stuff like this there with the explicit directive in your OP that whatever political dimensions are related to the crisis are off-limits, and for the WR. Here, it's the WR. Partisan shitposting is allowed even if it's pathologically neurotic. It makes up nearly half of the forum's posts. Probably the best thing you can do is put those posters on ignore. There's nothing I can do about TDS invading otherwise sober and productive discussion. It's their right.

There isn't a single fatality from the US or Canada, yet. South Korea got hit early. Them and Italy seem to be the only first world countries with fatalities.

Not sure what percentage that renders for those with sophisticated public health response infrastructures and medical care.

 

[Madmick]

First let us know what your position is if it is confirmed Trump and Pence are ordering all info flow out through them and them only?

My position is this is irrelevant.

It's a simple challenge. Substantiate the assertion they have prohibited all federal employees who are scientists/doctors from speaking to the press about COVID-19.

Tell the truth about one thing. Try to focus.

It's now in Nigeria. One of the most dense cities in the world.

Nice work on these threads Arkain. Much appreciated.

Yeah, if this Coronavirus Breaking News series is allowed by the Mods to turn into a steaming pile of garbage by all the deranged new-comers who are obviously more interested about Trump and Pence than they are about the worldwide pandemic itself, I'm officially done and let somebody else take over what's left of it.

I swear, we have been through 6 threads already and all the presidents and prime ministers who ARE responsible for this epidemic to actual exploded in their countries between v1 to v5 don't even get 1/100 of the hatred that the president of a country where the virus is still under containment is getting in v6.

And the thread-derailing partisan fuckers still don't know why all the regular contributors between v1 and v5 are calling them deranged.

 

[curryjunkie]

We’re just tired of you sounding like a broken record. Try sticking to you know the actual topic.

the president directly contradicting the CDC on the subject of an imminent pandemic is sticking to the topic,denial of that is just pathetic, and appointing the VP who thinks science is something to be disregarded if it doesnt tally with his medieval world view in charge of efforts to combat it is even more so. no matter how much you want it to be different.
