yeah for the record I don't think this will lead to Black Death, 97% of us will be just fine. I'm just having fun with it, because, like, A R0 OF FIVE POINT FORTY SEVEN HOLY LMAO

Also this has the chance to trigger the economic crash we've been posting about for years in the Doomsday Economics thread. China basically shutting down for an entire month is going to have loads of knock-on effects lol and might finally lead to all the other precarious structures crumbling down. Or it might not!

Brent and WTI have fallen more than 20% from their 2020-peak in January. The contracts rose over 3% on Wednesday as a slowdown in new Chinese coronavirus cases boosted expectations of a demand recovery.

Did the new numbers with the surge come out after after-hours trading closed? I think they did.

I guess what interests me about reinfection is what it does to outcomes for things like the quarantine ship where the countdown resets every time there was a new case. It seems like if the reinfection rate is high enough you just spend your entire life on hell ship.
