Do any of these numbers take size or infrastructure into the equation? Yeah it's scary, not Steve level but scary, but Italy has about 1/5th the population and 1/32 the area. Italy closer in size to California with 20ish more million people

That is a very good point.

I need to get me a Darth Vadar mask, just in case I end up in the hospital on a respirator.

You might be able to make the argument that a larger geographic map could make it worse. Look at China vs Hong Kong. More rural areas might not have the infrastructure to combat an outbreak. I know where I live there are 8 ICU beds in a town of 12,000

Your anxious levels have gone up from a few days ago. It’s okay, this Shit is fucked up and knowing that lots of people are going to die is worrisome. NY has the most amount of confirmed cases in the US now and we had the first casualty in our state.

The fact that this affects young people less, probably makes idiots not care as much. Jesus, it isn't about THEM getting it, it is about the dozens of people that they might then come into contact with it.

Shit like this makes me want to support martial law. Or at least an official lockdown like Italy.

He Has 17,700 Bottles of Hand Sanitizer and Nowhere to Sell Them

But what about the morality of hoarding products that can prevent the spread of the virus, just to turn a profit?

Mr. Colvin said he was simply fixing “inefficiencies in the marketplace.” Some areas of the country need these products more than others, and he’s helping send the supply toward the demand.

“There’s a crushing overwhelming demand in certain cities right now,” he said. “The Dollar General in the middle of nowhere outside of Lexington, Ky., doesn’t have that.”

He thought about it more. “I honestly feel like it’s a public service,” he added. “I’m being paid for my public service.”

These motherfuckers gotsta get got. Bold of them to use their real names. I hope that comes back to bite them.

Can’t fucking believe it but just had a conversation that involved mentioning the death rate of the flu being worse and that the media is over hyping this. Maybe it’s just some sort of psychological defense mechanism but people still don’t get it.

Maybe because I’m in Indy pissed about watching Netflix today. Maybe because I’m two makers in deep (four fingers) I don’t know. But I started this thread on January 20. 53 fucking days ago.
53 fucking days.

Our federal government knew about this at a minimum of one month or more before that. The virus is 19. Where was our response? Why did it take this long? Fucking Feds. They were in their little suits in offices talking about this way before January 20th. And what did they do? When did they do it? We’re going to have schools closed down the rest of the year and businesses for at least two weeks. Shut down.

You don’t cut budgets in regard to your citizens safety and if experts are quitting out of protest or getting fired by ideological morons who went to DC to just break shit, then they (the ideological morons) should be arrested and jailed.

Have a nice night.

This conversation sounds exhausting.
