Swedish Corona infected people up 1100% in a week. At this rate we will have 19 million cases within the next 2 months. One of the cases was kilometres from my work. Zero cases of Corona in North Korea and Cuba. Communism blocks viral agents. We should have listened. Katt fucked around with this message at 08:23 on Feb 29, 2020 |

With rumors like this flowing around it is insane to turn it into a North Koreans are superior bullshit argument. North Korea on a municipal level is only about 20% as crazy we we're lead to believe. An overwhelming majority of the stuff we get about North Korea is the South Korean intelligence service trolling us to maintain US support. Either that or reiterations on reports from 50 years ago. North Koreans have tons of foreign media access, radios, cellphones, regular contact with South Korean workers. Not to mention millions of pirate dvds. The North Korean healthcare system consists of medical teams that travel around the country and visit towns/villages to perform mandatory health exams on everyone that lives there on a regular basis. And then they treat what they find or book special treatment. Executions are not particularly common in North Korea these days. At least not by East Asia standards. If you have some rare disease you're hosed in North Korea but for all the common stuff people fare a lot better. Now yeah if we see no reports of Corona from North Korea it's obviously because they're keeping a lid on it. But North Korea has doctors and scientists. They know that a person will have been contagious for weeks before symptoms show. That they would execute Corona victims is up there with "Sweden is the rape and grenade killing capitol of Europe"

The real issue with the grenade statistic is not that Sweden has too many grenades, it’s that too many countries have too little grenades. Take the ring, rest of the world.

Can someone give me reasons to believe in the Swedish state's ability to handle an epidemic? It doesn't sound like they are taking it that seriously thus far. How prepared is the country for a worst case scenario?

How prepared is the country for a worst case scenario? The power of socialist sjukersättning will see anyone with a mild sniffle get sent home for 2 weeks. And through the power of snacks and video games we will self quarantine through this. As opposed to the Americans where people 3 days dead are still working the Starbucks counter.

EL just keeps digging. The party has cooperated with the Socialist Youth Front (SUF) for a long time, making it basically an unofficial youth org that nonetheless maintained its indepedence. This cooperation has been ratified by the party's executive committee. Recently SUF announced they were planning to revitalise and would possibly change their name to Red-Green Youth, suggesting to some that they planned closer cooperation, for better or worse. Another group, some of them former SUF, has now swooped in and claimed that name. They have adopted the same colour scheme and typeface as EL. Many leading members of EL are out on social media congratulating this until yesterday completely unknown entity, suggesting foreknowledge and intention to circumvent the executive committee.

zokie posted:I LOLed when the news had this quote Yeah, the Norwegian health org. is spreading that information to the news too. You see, the virus randomly decides not to be infectious if you're below a certain age.  It's hard to take them seriously when the only source of local contagion is a doctor, home from Italy, who spread it at the hospital to their coworkers and potentially their patients.

Remember that guy who shot up the Lars Vilks Committee and some cops and PET agents at Krudttønden, then tried to enter the synagogue, but instead killed a security guard and shot at some police guards who went full slapstick and ejected their magazines when they tried to return fire, and then he committed suicide by cop in the end while dual-wielding pistols? Well, back when he was serving time for a stabbing, they confiscated his contraband cell. It had been used to browse Al-Qaeda literature and contained the Anarchist's Cookbook.

It's possible that kids immune system kicks this particular virus to the curb, so hard that the virus load is insufficient to infect others. Likely?

The Corona virus seems to be much less likely to infect children, which according to researchers is good, because the adoring lambs are germ factories waiting to kill us all. They can still be infected though, in one case Corona was found in a new born infant. https://www.businessinsider.com/coronavirus-case-children-infants-low-disease-expert-explain-why-2020-2?r=US&IR=T

Friend explaining to be how non-contagious Corona is by using the examples of who the government wants tested (people who sat 3x3 seats around infected people on trains and flights) as opposed to the entire group of passengers. Never mind that Corona on a daily basis keeps surprising governments and doctors with the number and spread of infected people.

Gröna Lund hasn't fallen into the water yet and disintegrated? Last time I saw it was like 1999 and it looked like one of those dilapidated road-show carnivals that "the gang" always runs into at the end of a horror movie while being chased by the monster. All Pripyat levels of abandonment and faded colours. Looked like a good place to catch salmonella from eating caramelized shrimps on a stick.

Depends on which lovely boat you have in mind. If you're talking about the lovely boat outside Japan, they really were dealt a rough hand and I feel terrible for them. That's some bad luck and they must be miserable. If you're talking about the lovely boat outside Haugesund, Norway, they kind of had it coming for getting an a lovely boat well after the outbreak.

The cruise ship in Norway is a hand grenade that hasn't gone off yet. They have people with symptoms on board who had been in contact with people who tested positive, so the ship has been in quarantine for a day or two. The first few that were tested came back negative though. Hopefully they get the chance to go home instead of sitting on a lovely boat if it breaks out proper. I think it was from Germany and was due to return once they sorted out some tests. The high number of cases here is part because we had a lot of citizens vacationing in the outbreak areas, and part because a doctor spread it at a hospital in Oslo. Folkehelseinstituttet has been granted the power to do whatever they feel is necessary to stop an outbreak, but they've been pretty lax about it, preferring to be reactive rather than proactive, and at some points even contradicting messages from the World Health Org.

In Sweden some parents held their kids from school because their family had visited areas with infections and the schools threatened them with "unauthorized absence" which is a permanent mark on a students record. The department of health responded by giving each individual school the freedom to handle it how they saw fit while reiterating that kids don't tend to get Corona.

Rutkowski posted:Wait, unauthorized absence is permament marks these days? drat I'd be so loving boned if that was the case back on 00-06. It's not a huge deal but unauthorized absence is noted and always has been as far as I know. At least after grade 9. I graduated in 2005 and my teacher casually mentioned "only" 1 day of unauthorized absence on my record for the past 4 years which my mother somehow managed to appeal because it was supposed to be zero. 9th grade and below. Unauthorized absence also affects how much childcare the family gets and if they have multiple kids then one kids absence can bump down the "multi child" payment one step and reduce their payments further.

This, however, I remember being able to dodge and gently caress with their system enough that I only got caught one month over all those years. The limit was 20% absence IIRC but holy poo poo were they bad at enforcing that one.
