News CoronaVIRUS MEGA THREAD DEATH TOLL: 452,271

[RedFoxOne]

I just had the stomach flu and it was the sickest that I've been in years. First few hours were all puking and that was followed for the next few hours by constant diarrhea. Following that, I had the worst body aches, fever, cold chills, etc. while still having a bit of diarrhea. It was so bad that I couldn't sleep or even concentrate to watch TV. Over those two days, I ate two pieces of toast and a banana. The third day I started to get better, but my stomach could barely handle anything still.

That's the type of sickness that's been going around here. They even closed a school all week since 20% of the students/staff were out sick on Monday. More were getting sick at school that day too, so they said fuck this!

I had the same experience roughly 6 years ago.

Must have caught the bug at work (work at gym) and unknowingly had a pair of Jamaican beef patties for dinner after work and that's when all hell broke loose. Throwing up, diarrhea....throwing up and diarrhea at the same time. Fever, chills, aches and an absolute consistent sense of being uncomfortable. Couldn't sleep, didn't want to be awake, couldn't stand, couldn't sit. I just lied in the fetal position tossing and turning and moaning. The worst was beginning to dry heave and throwing up the small bit of water I tried to drink to stay hydrated.

I'll never forget that feeling. Definitely in my Top 3....

Death toll passes 250, USA and Austra now are temporarily denying entry to noncitizens who have recently traveled to China

Also check this out dude, wanna hear something that will scare you; China a global superpower and has tons of resourses, yet they ask Europe for medical supplies, the numbers the officials have been giving have to be altered, there is no way the numbers are not higher

Shut the fucking borders down and do not let anyone from China in our country..the USA.
It’s pretty much common sense, but if the best the CDC can do is tell us to wash our hands etc than we’re gonna see an epidemic. Or it’s a big hoax otherwise why wouldn’t our country take this shit really serious and take the prudent measures.

Conspiracy people on youtube and whatnot say this shit is out of control and the numbers China gives are fake news so who knows whats really going on, but the death toll keeps getting bigger

With all this talk about this virus. I just want to gauge the degree of fear on sherdog thus far.

 

[GSP_37]

Can you confirm all incoming flights into the US is diverted to Honolulu first for screening? @GSP_37

hawaiipublicradio.org/post/hawaii-officials-say-dont-travel-china-get-flu-shot-coronavirus-spreads#stream/0

I think the news said HI was one of 7 airports accepting China flights. News also said virus can be spread from people who aren't showing symptoms, so sounds like their screening is pretty much worthless. We're fucked. Even the airline pilots don't want there to be any flights touching China.

[RetiredSlave]

Ive killed norwalk, corona would be a walk in the park in comparison.

 

[all caps]

I'm shaking in my boots, knees knocking, hardly able to stand. Where is my vaccine? Why does the government hate us?

 

[Alphaboy]

Been sick for five days i might already have it.

 

[Plutoburn]

Fear mongering on the news. Most deaths are from old people with very weak immune system.

 

[cowboyjunkie]

I'm going to Cambodia and Vietnam for the month of March. It's in the back of my mind but odds are pretty slim that I'll catch it (so far).
