The Virus Outbreak Thread

This pandemic would've been the perfect time to destroy the Prussian model of 'education' once and for all. "But NO," says our idiot 'leaders!'

@Goku Black

I wish, because now more than ever do we need to teach people the ability to think and react dynamically to changing situations.

Australian researchers invent 20 minute blood based Corona test.
It has the potential of testing hundreds of samples per hour, and may also be used to detect antibodies.

@Goku Black

Our idiot leaders cannot even come out and say "masks good, wear masks" without being poked, prodded, and forced to.

I see more stores nationwide are starting to require all customers to wear masks, it's good to see them stepping up when the government refuses to, but I don't know what good it will do

@NamelessNP
I think the government didn't do that because they don't have the power.

@WyrmSpawN
You do know what the goverment is suppose to do, right?

@Meanlucario
I can think of things i would want it to do, but i also know it can't do everything i can think of, or anything it wants to.

@WyrmSpawN
They could just have a tax for those who don't have a mandatory mask rule. Something that simple is much better than nothing.

@WyrmSpawN
The government didn't do it because they are for themselves and their money. By banning masks they want their supporters to keep thinking it's a hoax, then go out, buy stuffs they don't need so the government could collect more tax which goes into their wallet, and then they could also match the media narrative in this way to strenghen their fanbase.

I wonder how many pissed off rednecks we're going to have before Walmart (at least) goes back on their mask requirement. After all, rednecks do most of their shopping at Walmart and the redneck community is their biggest customer base.

@Goku Black
Masks should be like underwear and pants by now. No one complains about wearing those and you can't go into a store without them.

@MagpulPony
Don't underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers.

Enter has a video on the virus. I'm 8 minutes into a 1 hour video, but I already think America and Victoria are doomed.

@Wiimeiser
Watch Chris Martenson for Virus updates. He's the best I've seen so far since January.

We're now the highest active cases in the whole Southeast Asia and our health secretary even uttered that we have flattened the curve since April. 🤡

726 and 1 deaths in my hood.

36 minutes in and I can feel that America has been screwed over for good. Now you know why I believe China will become the dominant power…

@Wiimeiser
China can't even build a functional cargo jet. They won't be taking on America anytime soon, I assure you.

@MagpulPony

Not to mention that their system is predicated on the prosperity over liberty conceit, which means if a lot of people in China start getting poorer, then it’ll be like Portland there, except with more civil wars and possibly coups like in the bad old days.

@Ebalosus
Seeing how the vast majority of wealth here in the USA is inherited, as well as what the game industry is able to get away with, the poor getting poorer is happening here in the USA as well.

I have COVID-19, did i made matters worse because i put some Xtra hot chilli sauce on my dinner tonight?

my throat and chest feels getting hydraulic pressed.

@Ebalosus
How much money can you save every month?

@Searly Sear
Yes it does. You are supposed to treat your throat and lung gently now that there is a disease damaging them.
Get yourself some remdesivir if you can. It is effective against COVID-19 with the least side effect.
And for diet, avoid spicy, too greasy, or too salty foods. Eat apples and pears regularly, and drink honey water, preferably warm water.
And exercise to certain extent. Keep your lung active but don't overdo like a crazy motherfucker.

@MagpulPony
That is not the only par
