The Virus Outbreak Thread

@Zincy
Yeah, this shit doesn’t give normal pneumonia, it gives mesothelioma.

1. Is it not the end the world?  
2. Will there be a vaccine?  
3. Is it safe to eat at a restaurant?  
4. Will you be able to recover from the virus if you get a second time?  
5. Will the USA bring back the lockdowns?  
6. Will eating healthy help you stay safe from the virus?  
7. Will most people in the world live through this pandemic?

1 out of every 10 symptomatic will suffer from some sort of lingering damag

 
And one of those lingering symptoms is something the doctors call ‘confusion’, which I think for most people is indistinguishable from flat out disassociative hallucinations.
 
I’m “in recovery” and I’m still seeing things that aren’t there. It’s like some sort of infectious airborne LSD.
 

 
It’s like I got sick, went to bed, when I woke up I had a free tulpa that periodically shows me things it thinks I need to see.
 
I’m not entirely sure if I like it or not. I’m going to give it time.
 
PS: You should see what I see when I watch the SheRa reboot with this disease. I am going to draw try some of it, it’s … like … amazeballs.
 
PPS: One of the ‘confusions’ is that I sometimes see floors or doorways that aren’t really there, so … it’s not all good.

Sorry I am just stress and paranoid. I have questions.

1. Is it not the end the world?

No.

2. Will there be a vaccine?

Probably. Depends on what this thing really is. It has some very unusual behaviors and tricks that it uses to infect us. However, those unusual behaviors might make it more susceptible to vaccines than a normal virus.

3. Is it safe to eat at a restaurant?

Depends on the restaurant.

4. Will you be able to recover from the virus if you get a second time?

Yes. I’m in recovery, but I won’t know for a week if I’m in the phase between two infections or if I’m really done. When you get it, there’s a chance that after the symptoms end you are right back where you were two weeks later. Whether that’s an entirely new infection, or a new phase and a completely different set of symptoms from the original infection, is still not well documented.

5. Will the USA bring back the lockdowns?

Some areas in the USA certainly. At the Federal level they seem to think it’s already over and done.

6. Will eating healthy help you stay safe from the virus?

Yes. And if you get the virus being healthy gives you better outcomes.

7. Will most people in the world live through this pandemic?

Yes. Most people have always survived pandemics throughout recorded history. Before that, it seems some pandemics nearly wiped us out, and may have wiped out our evolutional cousins. But even the worse plagues in the dark ages didn’t kill the majority of the population.

Although they did tend to completely re-write the social order and create entirely new social, political, and economic structures.

Now, please stop taking medical advice from people on the internet.

7. Will most people in the world live through this pandemic?

1. No, though the economy will take a severe hit, be prepared for a 10,000 year depression if things go south.  
2. We’re closer to one that for any coronavirus to date, so it could swing either way.  
3. Provided social distancing and hygiene procedures are followed.  
4. If you don’t have permanent damage you’ll probably recover more easily.  
5. They better…  
6. Given what the immune system does when exposed it might actually have the opposite effect, I don’t know for sure…  
7. My personal high estimate for the death toll is 1-4 billion, and that’s if no measures whatsoever are taken, also it includes deaths due to causes other than the virus itself.

1. No.
    
2. Yes.
    
3. I wouldn’t personally.
    
4. In most cases, Yes.
    
5. Possibly.
    
6. Not sure, Can’t hurt though.
    
7. Absolutely.

But here’s the mind-fuck: do I see hallucinations because I’ve had them so I have a context for them?

Would other people feel phantom tickling, or smell phantom scents? Or hear birds?

1. No.
2. Yes.
3. I wouldn’t personally.
4. In most cases, Yes.
5. Possibly.

7. Absolutely.
