I'm in "Reagan Country" - that is the part of California outside Cities. We can actually post Trump signs on our lawns and not rear Antifa reprisal.

It’s an interesting question.

I think for me I’d have to see some evidence that it’s spreading and in ramp.

Let’s say 10 cases today in the bay area, 100 tomorrow, 1000 the next day, 10,000 the day after that, and 100,000 the day after that. Ya that might make me stay home.

I think that it is a mixture of a bot and real person.


Agreed.

But it's kind of interesting. Exactly what do its owners hope to accomplish? Increased mistrust of the US government? No need.

1. They don't know how many people have it.

2. They can't test everybody in any kind of comprehensive or meaningful manner, no matter what they say.

3. What they tell us is based on self serving statistical inference at best.

4. As soon as the 'epidemic' reached the news in any form, it was already out of control.

5. Because it is already out of control, the disease will run its course in the population before burning out or conferring immunity in survivors.

6. The Government is only doing its handwaving either to serve auxiliary ulterior motives, or to make people THINK that the Government have to power to do something about it when they don't, or to avoid suffering the consequences of public panic or blame.

7. They don't even know the latency of the disease for sure i.e. how long somebody can carry it without symptoms and spread it before showing symptoms.

8. It appears some people can display mild or no symptoms, but still be carriers and spreaders of the virus. The virus is highly infectious as well. This is the worst possible case scenario.

9. Best we can hope for is a timely vaccine that is manufactured fast enough and in quantities enough to reach the general public.

10. Grab your ankles and pray.

The appointed heads are demolishing the departments of government that they are heading. The changes are huge but they are not making the news.


Translation: The Globalist and Intersectional Push is changing based on having a new administration that was Elected; unelected Bureaucrats aren't guiding policy by themselves anymore, regardless of Voter Choice.

From Bank Deregulation to Bailouts, from the Endless Interventions, to the weakening of Middle America due to revolving door corp-gov bureaucrats, there is nothing wonderful about the past 20-30 years of Deep State. It was long, long overdue for a complete upheaval of the incompetence and self-dealing.

I think I'll start to change my behavior if we get uncontrolled infections in the bay area. "uncontrolled" meaning

- 10 stranger to stranger transmissions within 1 week
- multiple sources with multiple recipients (vs 1 person who gives it to 10 ppl)
- spreading on different locations and different days

I think at that point, it's very likely that the # of infected is about to explode. I think Italy just went from like 3 to 450 in 4 or 5 days or something. Maybe they had a reporting problem that caused it to appear to grow so fast, but it could have also just been a few ppl who were sick but didn't know it yet, and blissfully unawaringly spread it to many others.

I'm not really worried about myself dying, but it seems to have a mortality rate of 8-15% for older people, which is pretty high IMO. I come in contact with some older people who don't otherwise have much exposure and so I'd hate to be the one to bring it to them. Behavior will need to change at some point anyway.

Some people talk about ebola or HIV, but they are statistically different models.

Ebola is like a fast burning brush fire. It is highly infectious, but there is not a long latency period of nominal health before symptoms emerge, and the victims mostly die rapidly. They don't walk around for prolonged periods nominally healthy but actively infectious. This makes it easier to contain and quarantine, in spite of the severity of the illness.

HIV is not highly infectious, per se, but requires parenteral inoculation of some kind. However, it is carried in infected individuals for long periods when the carriers can appear to be in good health and can continue to spread it. Thus, it can spread wide and far in spite of not being highly infectious like airborne virii. Also, HIV tends to be restricted to the parenteral inoculators, so it has more predicable populations.

Coronavirus is highly infectious, but also has enough latency in healthy appearing individuals to spread, so it has a long smolder period. It is also transmitted by fomites, air and food apparently, and can get in by lungs. That is the kind that is hard to overcome. If it is weaponized and they wanted it to spread, that is the way they would have made it.
108713   Ceffer   2020 Feb 26, 10:59pm  

More paranoia for the paranoid? HIV homologs spliced into Coronavirus? Is his suggestion that it was designed to cause a short term flu/cold with cold spreading vectors, but have the long term consequences of HIV?

Not sure if this was already reported here, but the Chinese stole the virus from a Canadian lab, then the outbreak occurred less than a year later. The province it occurred in has more train stations than anyplace in China. The outbreak occurred within a few miles of the only lab in China certified to study a disease like that. Not saying it's intentional, just that mankind's arrogance once again proves to be his downfall. The sheer stupidity of people who think they can control nature...

Has to be napalm to destroy the virus. Machine-gunned remains are still infectious!

I just wish I had more cash to buy more today.
I would never reveal anything about myself here.

Right, because from Clinton to Obama, Banks weren't totally deregulated and then bailed out, all the Administrations and Bureaucrats in the Departments didn't mock the idea of even trying to slow down Outsourcing of Industry to China, etc. since the mid-90s.

You realize we went from largely made in the USA at Walmart circa 1992 to almost nothing by 2012, from lawnmowers to TVs.
