Griefor posted:So there has been very little coughing in the trains here until now, but this morning there were 5-6 people in my carriage coughing. Obviously there's dozens of reasons one might cough and a cold/the flu is way more likely than Corona at this stage, but it's ominous to me. Clap your hands and pray the virus away!

Luckyellow posted:Wait hydrogen peroxide doesn't work for the boomer flu? I think the post was just that it was a really stupid replacement for hand sanitizer as chronic use would gently caress up your hands etc. It still does great on surfaces (as long as the concentration is above the recommended threshold).

Thesaurus posted:So how many cases we looking at for the peak in US? Based on that tweet about the progrssion from 1k to 10k to 100k every eight or nine days, we're looking at a million by April 5 and 10 million by April 14? Is 100 million possible at a peak by the end of April, or is that a number that will be reached over the course of the next year? No idea because our communal actions can impact it. The longer the message from the top is muddled the higher the likely peak though.

mystes posted:You'd think even if he wanted to suck up to China by broadcasting his opinion that Taiwan is part of China, he could still manage to do it in a less douchey way. Well, he is a WHO employee being put in a totally awkward position by a douchey gotcha phonecall and set of questions. Given the dicey diplomatic situation around Taiwan and its formal recognition in general and the really complicated relationship his employer has with Taiwan there is no way he was going to give the answer the caller wanted and it would be totally naive to expect otherwise. [edit] And it has nothing with that particular guy "wanting to suck up to China".

mobby_6kl posted:It's not an unreasonable question considering Taiwan's confirmation of human to human transmission could've helped avoid this whole disaster. Obviously the situation w.r.t. the UN is a mess that he can't do anything about but they've got to have some reasonable stock answers prepared for this sort of stuff. Yeah, definitely. The main thing I wanted to push back against was that this video was some sort of "gotcha" showing that the WHO was a total China shill which is what some people seemed to be pushing.

NotNut posted:I heard someone in here had an idea that TB vaccine could help against Coronavirus. Anything happen with that? Well, some people have highlighted some interesting correlations but there is nothing solid yet. Nothing much new compared to a few days ago. Someone linked a tweet about it in one of the threads earlier. [edit] The vaccine in question is commonly called the BCG vaccine. Munin fucked around with this message at 00:59 on Mar 29, 2020 |

SKULL.GIF posted:This is quite literally the first I've heard of corona in Turkey, let alone it being that bad, and I've been following this very closely for the past 10 weeks Some places with recent experiences of containing Ebola might be better off since they are trained to contain infectious poo poo. In general though I expect it to be like H1N1 where no-one really appreciated how deadly that epidemic had been because the numbers from Africa had been hideously under-reported and only a post-hoc analysis led to estimates of the death toll being revised.

Sab0921 posted:I mean - this measure is weeks late. It was implemented in Wuhan with like 1000 confirmed cases. Well, they also shouldn't be singling out the tri-state area at this point... Internal travel should definitely be restricted nearly universally. [edit] Actually, given it's spread a restricting internal travel probably does little at this point. Lockdowns should basically be universal across the country though.
