Coronavirus - Russia Empty Coronavirus - Russia

I'm not sure which direction this thread will go, so I'm putting it in tBin.

I've found the lack of cases in Russia to be intriguing. My guess is they just aren't testing.

India, Africa, etc. have also been in my mind. I don't know how they control it. There are going to be a lot of fucked countries/people.

Anyway, speculate away...

So two weeks ago on the main board thread I asked why we’ve not heard about Russia. Here’s another paranoid thought: when we’re reeling like this, we’re ver vulnerable to attack.

Yeah I’ve thought that.

Yeah I’ve thought that.

I don't think Russia would actually risk a conventional/kinetic attack. A multi-pronged cyber attack, with plausible deniability is more likely. They can point fingers at Iran, China and DPRK. HHS was already under a DDOS attack on Monday and we're still working on attribution. DDOS is mild compared to what Russia could do.

The oddest one is Jordan. I know a doctor that went to med school here in the states (I think Georgetown ) anyway went back to be a doctor in Jordan. I guess the whole country locked down back when everything first broke. I asked her if she believed the number of cases and she said she did because of locking up so quickly.

Yeah, I give North Korea about a -1000% chance of having the know how to do any of that.
