that was discredited as an extremely unlikely edgecase and the mean time for it to go from infection to symptoms was 4-7 days

The CDC's official statement is 2 to 14 days for symptoms, compared to 2 to 7 for SARS (assuming we're still sticking to SARS), and that's with already having 10x more confirmed cases than SARS. I'm not thinking of any particular case, edge or otherwise.

Walking? Legs? Sunlight? I'm sorry. I've evolved past the feeble concept of self mobility. Your innocent mouth may utter the word "atrophy" in my general direction as my scooter buzzes past you in the juice aisle at Wal-Mart, but you only reveal your lack of understanding. You see, I've ascended into a higher caste of humanity. A post-humanity, even. I am a Capsuleer, good sir! I have taken to the stars and participated in some of the grandest battles every fought by mankind. I've played a key role in conflicts of such a massive scale that, to the uninitiated, seem small enough to be below their notice. You may mock my abstaining from the carnal pleasures or experiencing the "beauty" or "natural wonders" of this planet, but know, I tread between entire systems of unspoiled wonder in a matter of seconds.

I'm sure it has its charm and must be awe inspiring but its not really for me.

If i was nearby tho, i'd still probably stop to have a look, its just not something id go out of my way for.

i'm surprised they cancelled fanfest because the icelandic people get their vaccines on time so i don't understand why they would need to cancel it? also they have socialism and free health care so i don't see what the problem is? also it only kills old people and eve players aren't that old?

I think globby's point is that the mortality rate for meltlung is something like 0.2% for anyone under 40 and only reaches whole percents at the 50-59 bracket so fanfest would be a pretty low risk event being that it's mostly people in the 0.2% mortality group. that's only twice the mortality rate of good ol' influenza.

intentionally attempting to traffic in infectious diseases is irresponsible, immoral, and probably illegal, and it's generally a good idea to avoid large gatherings when there's a new spanish flu on the loose; that being said, if you're gonna do it, do the whole world a favour and instead of infecting eve players, go sneeze at maga chud gatherings.

it was a joke, not 12 hours before fanfest was cancelled ex-CCP falcon was arguing that corona virus isn't an issue in iceland because they are socialist, have vaccines, and are healthy.

Considering that Cuba, North Korea and Venezuela all have zero cases of Corona virus. It's clear proof that socialism stops it.

quote:

There are two ways to fight epidemics: the medieval and the modern.

The modern way is to surrender to the power of the pathogens: Acknowledge that they are unstoppable and to try to soften the blow with 20th-century inventions, including new vaccines, antibiotics, hospital ventilators and thermal cameras searching for people with fevers.

The medieval way, inherited from the era of the Black Death, is brutal: Close the borders, quarantine the ships, pen terrified citizens up inside their poisoned cities.

For the first time in more than a century, the world has chosen to confront a new and terrifying virus with the iron fist instead of the latex glove.
