The live covid-19 tracker channel on Youtube just hit 300k in cases reported, of those ~4% dead, ~30% recovered, and the rest are Goku.

Sure it's a spectacle and people would be happily drunk for a few hours, but it's not like you can't drink beer and listen to lovely music at home every day. counterpoint: getting absolutely shithouse drunk at Oktoberfest in Munich was one of my most favorite days ever.

Andrast posted:That's like second world war numbers Plus the current world population is more than 3 times bigger than it was in the 1940s, and 2 - 3% of 7.5 billion is of course a heck of a lot more than from 2.3 billion. The predicted COVID-19 deaths for Australia are between 50,000 to 150,000, but most likely somewhere around 100,000. That's more than the number of Australian servicemen/women who died in WW1and WW2 combined. Snowglobe of Doom fucked around with this message at 19:33 on Mar 21, 2020 |

Probably, but if it was Chinese tourists, then cities like paris should be one giant glowing orb of viral infections now (maybe it will in a couple of days, i dunno). There must be more to it. The loving ski season in the alps is definitely one of the main reasons it spread from Italy all over Europe. Most, if not all of the first cases here in Belgium were linked to it. I was looking at a map of the sars outbreak in 2003, which at the time, nobody cared about in Europe. At the time, I had never been on an airplane, and I was far from the only one. Nobody I knew frequently flew or went on holidays and city trips around the world. And if we had, sars would have been as bad back then as it is now.

DeadFatDuckFat posted:Really? Does that work on all kinds of n95 or just specific ones Masks are going to stop working in 2 ways. Either you wear it so much that it starts falling apart or it gets clogged with sawdust or drywall dust etc. Since these are not being used in a construction capacity the latter isn't really an issue. It's good to clean it every once in a while I'm sure smarter people have figured out what works and what doesn't but I'm pretty sure as long as its clean and not mechanically broken it will still work fine and better than no mask if used correctly.

Yeah but what are the odds that everyone will actually clean the properly? But to be honest I'd be more concerned about people not cleaning their phones regularly, people are going to be constantly taking those out in public and putting them down on tabeletops and desk and then holding them up to their faces without a second thought.

Lombardy focus was not because of Chinese tourists but because of the local Chinese working community that had visited China for the new year. I think, I read that somewhere.

That's more than the number of Australian servicemen/women who died in WW1and WW2 combined. For reference, the 1918 flu pandemic killed an estimated 15,000 Australians when the population was 20% of today's, so the equivalent of 75,000 people dying from covid.

So, when this all ends, where is Trump going to put the giant statue(s) of himself? Washington DC of course, but besides that, maybe San Fran or LA? NY? Iowa? Swing states? Lots of options to consider.

It should go without saying, but if you're comfortably working from home please don't take advantage of free food being offered by restaurants to people experiencing hardship. Pretty infuriating to see that happen.

Hi please have your coworker PM me so we can meet up with her, the community wants to give her a warm greeting with a flower lei and then we'll perform a fire dance around a roast pig

Right now the only thing that needs to be done is to limit the amount of customers in the store which they are not doing. I waited in line for an hour talking multiuple feet away on how this felt strange for everyone. At least now the boomers and every else is taking this more serious with being clean and practicing social distancing.

Katamari Democracy posted:I survived and people were very respectful and actually practicing social distancing. It's incredible. If there's one thing I've learned in the midst of this, it's that most apocalyptic takes are pretty wrong. People in NYC have been nothing but kind about stuff around here and there are hundreds if not thousands of younger people volunteering to help others in need. Not really a lot of panicking in the boroughseven though hospital space is dwindling, but hopefully that will get better with the federal engineers/FEMA rolling in to do mobile hospitals and using places like SUNY/CUNY/Javits center for more medical space. NYC could easily have gotten so much more hosed here but the mobilization so far has at least put the city on a better track to test and improve the situation. Florida on the other hand will probably be hosed because it took way longer to even close those goddamn beaches.

The Hawaii Lt Governor says that he wants a mandatory 14 day quarantine for anyone flying to the state but I don't think that has happened yet. It really needs to. In fact every state should do this, it would cut down on air travel We quarantine incoming pets for a week to make sure that they don't have rabies and people who are flying to Hawaii for vacation right now are a lot dumber than a dog.
