My mother in Dallas is 72 and keeps telling me she wants coronavirus because she's so miserable and lonely. Unfortunately for her she was equally miserable and lonely before the virus so mostly what's different now is that she can't frivolously shop to make her empty life bearable, lol.

Basically I'm saying that I hope face toucher cat and all other Rona patients itt are all right, pronating, and pushing fluids.

quote:

LONDON — The World Health Organization is "urgently" investigating a potential link between the coronavirus and Kawasaki syndrome, an illness of unknown cause that primarily affects children under 5.

"We are aware of this newly described syndrome from a number of countries in Europe and potentially a small number of cases in North America," Dr. Adam Finn, chair of the WHO's European Technical Advisory Group, told a news briefing Thursday.
"We are urgently conducting a surveillance study in the United Kingdom to establish what is going on," he added.

Also known as Kawasaki disease, on its website the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention describes Kawasaki syndrome as "acute febrile illness of unknown cause" that "primarily affects children younger than five years of age."

It should be known that this was not in the clinical experience of east asian countries, almost like letting a virus spread unmolested in your population creates the risk letting it mutate new and improved symptoms.

if it starts killing children here but not in east asia the 14 words people are going to lose their minds

Sure, the point of that section is that they are themselves running a tiny risk (still zero deaths among those under 20 in Sweden), so infringing their freedom (it might here be useful to consider the many schoolchildren from troubled homes, but I think that is just a rationalization of the social contract) would be collectivizing the problem faced primarily by old/at-risk people.

Again, I can't say that looking at this rationally is anything but extremely cold, but in simple trolley-experiment-instincts I think this is core to the Swedish viewpoint.

lol this is amazing and i would fully support it but it also does sometimes just kill kids so eh.

I posted this in the Balkanization thread but its highly relevant here


I keep thinking about a passage from Europe's Tragedy about the prevailing attitudes leading up to the 30 Years War, about how the system of the HRE of having a political minority and political majority both being unsatisfied with the current system but holding on because there's faith in future success for either. But when that faith of future gains breaks down, that's all there was to hold the system together.

Let me see if I can find the exact passage

"The modern democratic state assumes responsibility for implementing decisions once they have been taken by majority vote. The dissenting minority now confront the full power of the state, and if they choose to resist, the situation can descend into violence as there is no legal basis for their failure to comply. . . . The minority continued to confront the majority . . . it was as if the process of decision-making was not yet complete and the majority view remained provisional until accepted by the minority. This situation was clearly problematic, as the dissenters could still hope to reverse unwelcome decisions completely, while the majority could grow frustrated if their opinion remained ignored. Constant postponement of controversial issues might render definitive arrangements impossible. . . . the chances of violence were greatly reduced as long as a compromise remained possible. . . while the Empire's inhabitants fought over the interpretation of the imperial constituion, they did not dispute its existence and it provided the framework within which they eventually made their peace"

Sound familiar?

We're at the point where compromise is impossible, and at least the right is beginning to make the argument that the constitution doesn't matter (remember that Op-ed from that chud law professor?) since they have achieved full power now.

however we're gonna make the 30YW look like sunshine and rainbows

Thanks, that's really sweet. I'm actually really hurting and it sucks bigly. The craziest thing is my lungs are fine so I'm starting to wonder if I somehow caught Flu 1.0 or something else? My doctor actually is treating covid patients in the hospital and should anything happen we're already working out something now I'm just waiting on my test results and it's annoying.

I'm sorry your mother isn't happy, it seems like a lot of people only found happiness in spending money and that's so crazy to me. I didn't realize it was like that
