COVID-19 Breaking News - Version 15: UK PM Boris Johnson out of ICU

If it wasn’t for some light on topic banter this thread would be dead, most posters have had enough of this.

light on topic banter's fine, that's not what i was talking about

Don't know about you guys but I wouldn't expect a place like Sweden to take off with this anyway.
I think their population is barely 10 million it's a fairly spread out place and not a busy place like Italy, New York, London, Paris ect.

It seems to me big places that are busy get shafted. Small places like Scotland, Ireland, Sweden are less busy, more spread out and therefore in far less danger.

Oh man for sure, I mean Canada for the most part is dealing very well with this save for the nursing homes and Quebec and to a lesser example Ontario due to population. Most other provinces the hospitals are empty because everyone else who really shouldn’t be at the er isn’t and all elective procedures are on hold.

That's not a lockdown

A stay-at-home order (North America) or a movement control order (Southeast Asia) is an order from an authority to restrict movements of population as a mass quarantine strategy for suppressing or mitigating an epidemic or pandemic by ordering residents to stay home except for essential tasks or going to work in essential businesses. In many cases, outdoor activities are allowed. Nonessential businesses are either closed or changed to be working from home.[1] In some regions, it has been implemented as a round-the-clock curfew[2] or called a shelter-in-place order,[3] but it is not to be confused with a shelter in place situation.[4] Similar measures have been used around the world, but the term lockdown is used instead.[5]

You copy pasted something from the wikipedia page "stay-at-home-order" while i copy pasted the Cambridge Dictionary definition of "lockdown". So i think the definition of lockdown I used is pretty sound.

Yeah, its sort of irrelevant what they're doing in Sweden to places like where I live. It's a quiet place with hardly any tourists and big businesses.
It's no surprise some of the most popular places are worst affected.

2 assisted living centers in my town reported cases of Covid. Fuck. This is gonna be sad


How tho? They’ve been locked down no visitors for like a month now. A staff had to have been asymptomatic I would think.

 

[Headkicktoleg]

Those numbers will increase and the social distancing is helping those numbers not explode to the point hospitals are overwhelmed. That’s the point of the quarantine

I know, I'm not arguing against the quarantine.

Interesting documentary here. I wouldn't call it a conspiracy video. It's simply bringing up some interesting points and possibilities. The biggest take way is that all signs point towards the virus being genetically altered and the wet market being the scape goat. The question posed is what was the purpose? Bioweapon, recklessness or perhaps financially motivated where their scientists have the cure and can sell it worldwide.

I'd think this is complete bullshit. Every information I have read so far from reputable medical journals was that they are able to definitely exclude the idea of SARS-CoV-2 being a man-made virus. This kind of 'truth via YouTube' needs to be stopped.

50 such homes in Ontario have at least 1 covid case …. its going to be awful. Likfe the one north of Toronto where /2 the old folks have died.

I'm not calling it the truth, just interesting. The video shows that the Wuhab biolab was working on bat coronaviruses and CoV-2 is a 100% genetic match which is impossible with how viruses mutate. This would mean it would be cloned. Again, not saying it's true but an interesting discussion.

This is not a Eddie Bravo type conspiracy video. I'd give it a watch.

And what is the source that the lab in Wuhan was working on bat corona viruses, and inside the lab they had a 100% genetic match to what we now call Covid-19?

How would a source have that direct information?

This is just another Alex Jones spin-off without a fat hairy guy at the helm. Try to think a little.

Busy western countries are indeed suffering the most from this.

They're going to get destroyed by it. They have around the same number of deaths as Brazil with 1/20 of the population.
I've been estimating 1% of the infected die from that virus based on the data we have from ships and small countries. Sweden right now, according to the official numbers, would have a 10% death ratio, which means they're massively undertesting, their 8 thousand or so infected number is closer to 80 thousand.

We'll see.
It's a small population spread out country, I'd be surprised if it starts looking like the top 6.

Surprised the article mentioned everyone.

Violent extremists may exploit coronavirus pandemic, target hospitals, threat report warns

https://globalnews.ca/news/6795248/extremists-may-exploit-coronavirus-pandemic-threat-report/

Terrorism expert Prof. Amarnath Amarasingam, author of an article on the topic, said he had not seen any evidence that either Islamist or right-wing extremists were serious about such attacks.

“Accelerationists and ecofascist chats initially talked about spreading fake rumours about individuals weaponizing COVID-19,” the Queen’s University professor said.

“This included memes joking about spitting and sneezing and licking public places and other posts suggesting spitting in a spray bottle and spraying it at people they didn’t like.”

But these extremists did not seem to be serious, and it was “mostly trolling,” although they might inspire a lone individual to take action, Amarasingam said.

The Association of American Railroads Railway Alert Network, which wrote the report, referred a reporter to the DHS, which did not respond to questions by deadline.

Everyone now has masks on in OC, CA. I mean everyone. And we have not even been hit hard at all

Yup. I went to the grocery store and most people were wearing a mask or at least a bandana. Good to see.

Anyone remember the poster that worked for the NIH? I want to tag him here to see if he has any new info but I can’t remember his username.
