lmao China has said it is "truly mean" for the US to tell citizens not to travel to China at all immediately after the WHO recommended that travel restrictions not be put in place

I kinda hate this thread, lmao, it's either racist poo poo or some loving nerds trying to pretend they're an actor in some medical drama and getting gleeful when they see a dangerous virus spread because they momentarily feel correct.

poo poo sucks basically

it's okay China, the US is full of dumb motherfuckers who don't think anything bad will ever happen to them, so we're going to get a sizable chunk of americans who ignore warnings like this and help spread it to the US

you won't be alone in this :glomp:

like god drat, lmao, half the threads are "WOW HAHA YES, IT'S IN A MAJOR TRANSPORT AREA, I LOVE PEOPLE GETTING HURT" (someone else will post that report was made up like with the Las Vegas scare but everyone will ignore it), motherfuckers were in here going "THE INSCRUTABLE ORIENTALS HAVE RELEASED A *BIO-WEAPON* TO REDUCE THE SURPLUS POPULATION" and didn't get probed

this poo poo's basically indistinguishable from those loving Reddit subs where you watch people die but oh well! good to know so many of my fellow leftists here are absolutely loving insane sociopaths and that basically nothing matters, lmao

It's more like a massive disease outbreak is exciting in a morbid sense when you aren't directly affected.

Like reading about world war 2 or something, you wouldn't actually want it to happen again but it's interesting reading about tank battles or whatever so some part of you is happy it occurred.

I'd also point out if the true number of cases of 2019-nCoV in Wuhan is nearly 76,000 then both the number of cases that become serious/critical and the overall mortality rate is significantly lower than is being reported.

Most of those cases would be ongoing illnesses less than a week old, a lot more time needs to pass before we can say something like that

iirc it's been mostly older people, but anyone with a weak or compromised immune system is obviously at risk
