Yup.

Both of you calm the hell down, or thread removals and warnings are in order.

Psst. Listen to him . He aint fucking around.

The guy on that Rogan podcast said that the likeliest way this dies out (short of a vaccine) is having enough previously infected but recovered people around. He didn’t seem to think reinfection was a thing.

There have been reports of reinfection, but there's not enough data yet to establish a pattern. I also doubt that COVID19 is special in this regard.

But in the rare case that it evolves so quickly that it can reinfect, or that there's something about it that makes some people's antibody response weak, then that would have scary implications for the efficacy of a vaccine.

First professional footballer to test positive for coronavirus:

Was wondering when we would see an athelete get it, my post is probably a few pages back now (while even more the way this thread is going).

 

[GHG]

Damn, and according to his bio, he's 25 years old.

Yep and he will have trained with his team mates and played against other teams in the last few weeks.

They will need to quarantine a whole host of footballers and off the pitch staff potentially now.

Just the flu innit.

Double post but here he is posing with other football players 3 days ago.

Young people can also catch it, but usually it isn't as harsh on them.

Yeh it's fucked.

The managers and staff tend to be much older as well.

 

[sublimit]

Also a little birdy told me an hour ago that the olympics will be pushed to 2021 and not just delayed for the end of the year.

It really is the most wise thing to do IMO. Even if the numbers go down during summer.

Coronavirus: Juventus centre-back Daniele Rugani 'fine' after positive virus test

Juventus announce that Italy centre-back Daniele Rugani has tested positive for coronavirus.

www.bbc.com

He's currently asymptomatic apparently. It's good for him but that is why this shit is so dangerous, its a silent killer.

Juve’s nickname is ‘the Old Lady’ so ciao.

I hope there's extensive testing underway on the prevalence of asymptomatic spreaders. That would give us a better model to work off of.

Suddenly, 68 cases in Brazil. Almost all of them in São Paulo, less than 60 miles from me. Fuck. This is gonna spread really fast. My job is already suffering because of this shit

The NBA is about to either ban fans or shut down totally for a period of time:

Guess who doesn't have coronavirus? Every single person you and I know!

If the figure of every infection leading to another 2.5 infections is accurate, you can add another 200 to that, and possibly another 500 on top of that, and so on.

Here in the UK the figures shot up to 500 confirmed cases in no time. What’s really concerning is that they’re not localised but spread across the entire country. 3 confirmed cases in my city, Bristol.

Be safe.

 

[Rock And Roll]

I'm livid on the situation. Canada saying we should expect 30-70% of the population to be infected while the Federal government is doing NOTHING to prevent infections.

What do you mean the government is doing nothing? Trudeau is spending $2.6 million on anti-racism to fight the virus

We don't need those funds for hospitals, health care workers or maybe towards manufacturing supplies like masks or hand sanitizers. The real enemy here, as it always has been, is racism.

Mess with the Mod, get the War (I'm guessing he was removed from this thread for shit posting)

 

[Smiles and Cries]

It kinda feels weird to even report anyone below 50 cases now


glad we still have many of those I wish they could hold the numbers there

 

[Eiknarf]

You know anybody who knows anybody who has it?

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Reeshitera has already been planning this.

Also, there was some Democratic Counciller who was calling on people to infect Trump supporters.

There are really sad and pathetic people out there who will weaponize a tragedy just to "own the right".

I'm more surprised that forum banned him for that considering hoe they feel about anyone not far to the left.

 

[Kadayi]

You know anybody who knows anybody who has it?

Pretty sure S Siri does

But still, what does it matter at this stage? Or are you still claiming the entire thing is a hoax because it's an election year? You're that Guy IIRC Right? China just infected themselves because they hate Trump? A few thousand dead means nothing versus making Orange Man look Bad right?

Yeah, let's ignore the $1,000,000,000 the federal government has allocated to fight corona virus cause it fits your agenda yeah!

I'm not a fan of Trudeau but at least be factual in your complaints against him, there is more than enough stuff he does to chuck shit at him.

[Bobnob]

A teacher in a school local to me was quarantined about a week ago.(not my daughters school, but still....) I'm quite worried tbh my daughter's school isnt giving many updates if any (sticking to guv guidelines ) , it's also my daughter's GCSE year. My misses works in care homes. I really want to take my daughter out of school just incase she gets it and passes it on to her mum. I really cant fathom why the schools/gov hasn't shut the schools down. It's quite worrying tbh.

Thanks, I can't remember if S Siri or his coworkers or both have it.

Thank you.

I work in a hotel. 5 minutes ago an Italian came in. He said four, I said FOUR planes landed in São Paulo and there was absolutely no screening whatsoever. Not even anyone checking people's body temperature. I mean. How does this happen.

 

[JordanN]

That's not a ban, that's a warning.

 

[Jtibh]

You know shit isnreal when your cycling instructer tells you to speed up and away from the corona virus

 

[pennythoughts]

my school sent out a warning earlier this week that is essentially to "be careful" but I'm assuming they'll end up extending our spring break next week while faculty prepare online lessons for the rest of the semester.

[Darkmakaimura]

Ah my bad. Still surprised he got even that lmao.

I'm starting to forget how we got to this point? Since my sleep times have been messy it feels like a dream when I come back and read a new page on here.

What timeline did I fall into?

 

[DragoonKain]

Damn man, I keep reading stories about people with symptoms going to hospitals and being sent home because they "don't qualify" for testing.

 

[vpance]

Same reason why it's like that in Canada. Dumbass government.

 

[JordanN]

El Salvador

So they wont let people in, but will they let them out? El Salvador is the same country sending thousands of illegal immigrants to the USA.

 

[Karma Jawa]

You know anybody who knows anybody who has it?

7.2 billion people on the planet. Roughly 126 thousand diagnosed as positive.

It’s only a few weeks old. We don’t know how to stop this, and it’s highly infectious. At this point it would be highly unlikely that you’d know anyone with it, but the entire point of the concern is the rapid rate of infection.

 

[JordanN]

Same reason why it's like that in Canada. Dumbass government.

My Dad just came back from Toronto. I asked him if they did any screening at the airport and he said no.

 

[Insane Metal]

Our imbecile president: "the flu kills many more people every year" so yeah. We're fucked.

Moving much faster now.

Remember when a page lasted a couple of hours? And we'd get a justtheflubro once a day?

Remember when China gave numbers twice a day?

Remember people saying this was no big deal?

Oh and throw shit at him for other things I have. Please tell me how $2.6 million against "anti-racism" is a good thing here and how those funds need to be allocated to that cause. I'll ignore the millions of other dollars he spends on anti- racism too, let's just focus on this case. Please explain to me how spending money helps combat racism and helps with this virus.

We just had 7,000 new cases reported outside of China in a single day while China reported 12 new cases
Times have changed. Things feel weird.

Yesterday's felt like the world axis changed and we're all on a new course. Not a good one.

I don't have faith that enough of the US is up to the task. It's already in so many towns it'll be impossible to quarantine places.

Need to hope just riding it out ends up not being so bad.

Well to be honest I don't want a racist virus out there. I want it to kill all people equally. Its already ageist which is makes it a Nazi, since it kills older people. Do you want a Nazi ageist racist virus? Good thing we will focus the attention in the right places for all of Mankind...... er Peoplekind.

Nope I am feeling letdown by the US reaction to this most of the top people are thinking they could be rid of this in the very near future somehow. The only thing driving caution are large companies putting a slowdown on meetings and events.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

I lean right wing on most issues and I feel like Trump/etc is seriously mishandling this. I hope his speech tonight is good and lays out strong strict and solid plans for moving forward.
