The Virus Outbreak Thread

Wal-mart won’t enforce its mask requirement, so they might as well just not even have it. what a joke

@NamelessNP  
Sounds like the American way to me.

America is cooking the books now.
 
With the HHS/WH pipe line, the numbers suddenly plateaued despite CDC projections suggesting we should have continued to see an increase. You can see the data tilt sideways literally the week the order came down.
 
Meanwhile, the Oxford tracker, and the trackers that use data direct from hospitals still shows an increase.
 
If you cannot lie your way out of reality, change the data.

@Zincy  
That sounds so American it hurts.

@Meanlucario
 
Many of our leaders are liers and fools. Half of them should hang for gross homicide, the other half should rot in jail.

Is it safe to touch the Mails and Packages?

@PonyGamer  
It should be. Most packages take 2-3 days to arrive. Any ’Rona particles should be dead by then.

What @Goku Black said
 
Disinfect it if you still want to make sure

@Kiryu-Chan  
I quarantine most things I get for 72 hours.
 
If it’s something I was really looking forward to I’ll use a disinfectant wipe instead.
 
I’d rather be safe than sorry.

Our daily cases may have dramaatically jumped again but I must say…
 

 

 
 
BEST FREEFALL EVER!!!
 

Here’s the reason why our recovery stats jumped.
 

It is no coincidence that both my grandmothers died last year, this virus has been spreading without us even knowing it.

This COVID crisis is now currently taking a very ugly turn here in the Philippines.
 
As Darth Vader once said to Luke: “You are unwise to lower your defenses!” That sums it up everything that’s happening here for the past couple of months.

Indonesia reached over 100.000 and this marks the beginning of a severe economic crisis and imminent recession. Some people fear that if the pandemic worsens, subsequent economic crisis may cause the country to cripple and someday can break into smaller independent states, akin to the Soviet Union
 
There are also alleged speculation/predictions that Indonesians will do mass suicides, or getting illegal jobs to gain money (e.g. drugs, prostitution, pornography, illegitimate cryptocurrency mining, criminal acts, etc.) if the pandemic worsens and affected the economy badly.

@RhodieNite  
I’m afraid we are going to surpass your country immediately soon.
 

@Searly Sear
 
we face the same fate

Man, GTA may become a reality in this pandemic; people rely on crime and illegal jobs to gain money because of a difficult economic situation
 
Crime rate may increase, and youngsters started dealing drugs for profit, viral social media girls may become amateur porno models or even prostitutes, religious group becoming more and more radical, law enforcement/politics starting to go corrupt, delinquent teenage students building criminal gangs, etc.
 
 
I’m sorry of my prediction went too far anyways

@RhodieNite  
And Melbourne becomes a Fallout world…

On the bright side, perhaps parts of the United States will finally be a true libertarian paradise.

@Goku Black
 
If corruption and crime are the hallmarks of paradise than I question the mental fitness of those who want to live there.

@Goku Black  
My paradise is somewhere far off in the Midwest with a 9,000 square foot house and at lesst 200 acres of land. No people, no cities, no noise and trash and polluted air, just calm, peaceful serenity every day.

Stage 4 lockdowns go into effect in less than 3 hours, and last for 6 weeks. Penalties are heavy, though I don’t know just how heavy.
 
EDIT: Breaking curfew is an instant $10,000 fine.

Regret giving up your guns yet?
