goddamnedtwisto posted:Indeed, and some people are pointing at the relatively low rates in Australia as support, but that's also a country that's much more spread out than Europe and east Asia. Australia is huge but its population centres are fairly concentrated in a few coastal areas, so I wouldn't think infection would be any more challenging than it would be in Europe or North America everything else being the same

A pandemic that kills off or sterilises most of the male population is like the beginning of the epic porn saga I've been writing.

Speaking of porn sagas, I finally found Wimshurst machines back on eBay for a reasonable price! What does that have to do with porn? Because I checked the related items hoping to see some other vintage science stuff,  but nooo What are you hentai perverts doing with my static electricity machines? and is it fun?

I think it may go a bit better here than the UK. There are pockets of density but cities here are definately more sprawled than the UK and the medical infrastructure in the cities at least hasn't been austeritied to gently caress for years. We have also locked down pretty early - hopefully before mass community transmission has happened and, despite the stereotype of relaxed larrikin Aussies it is actually an intensely micromanaged culture so people are quite responsive on a population level to restrictions. There is also a fairly sophisticated emergency management infrastructure and public awareness of large scale hazards - mainly because of bushfires but also cyclones and flooding. It will be bad, no mistake, and our Murdoch press is already pushing the US back to work line which is incredibly dangerous but I am certainly more worried for my family in the UK than for the semi rural community here at this stage in time.

goddamnedtwisto posted:Anyone know if the theory (/fervent hope/delusion) that coronavirus spreads much less well in warm weather is true? It smells to me like another facet of the "It's just the flu" just-so story. The hope is sadly based on the seasonal flu infection rate. Seasonal flu has an average "R0" (number of times it'll be transferred person to person) of 1.3 and is spread by contact and aerosols, but in effect isn't very "virulent". During the summer months the population as a whole spends less time in close contact and that in effect lowers the R0 closer to 1. Seasonal flu "ends" when it get stuck within homes and stops being transmitted by public transport and the like. 2019-nCov is a lot more virulent, spreading easier, with a R0 of around 3 - which means to get that effective transmission rate down you have to crush it with enforced social distancing.

Thinking about it, this is a problem that has already been solved. Tape a stud finder to your wrist and get a nose piercing. It's at least 97% less likely to send you to the hospital and 100% less likely to end up with a newspaper article about how you got magnets stuck in your nose like a toddler because you didn't know what a 7404 was.

Eg Denies use of illicit drugs (parents in the room with them) Denies recent alcohol consumption (breath smells of alcohol)

Or just an orientation sensor that buzzes if you lift your forearm above horizontal. Except he'd probably use a mercury switch to do it and mount the buzzer so it smashed the switch open.
