YEAH, IT'S CALLED REALITY
Pandemics tend to feature more in books than comics. What first comes to mind is Sandmen's first chapter. But that's pushing it.
Sequential art>reality
everytime
>hey, Yas Forums, *ACHOOO!* Sorry, I've had the worst cold since I ate that bat soup
>boomers will end up dying in the nightmare health system they spent decades voting for
Pottery.
There are the comic extras of some games like Resident Evil, Dead Rising, Prototype. I found them all interesting. Just some extra backstory.
It is rather potty, I'll give it that.
It's like pottery. It rhymes.
>>boomers will end up dying in the nightmare health system they spent decades voting for
>Pottery
What's the context? Did someone related to the Doctor die?
Reminds me, getting chinese food tonight was not the brightest idea I've had
Stand Still Stay Silent is a classic, OP
I ldon't get what the fuzz is about. It's literally a slighty worse version of the flu. I suspect that liberals are just using it to try to fuck Trump over again after the impreachment failed. Fucking retards panicing for nothing. I'll be enjoying stocks at a major discount and much cheaper flights and cruises
Webcomic huh? Looks good. Thanks, I'll give it a go.

In the rare case that you're not a troll, the difference between the flu and Coronavirus is that Coronavirus has a 20% hospitalization rate. There are less than a million beds in the entire continental US and if enough people get infected, we're going to run out of beds really fucking fast. We all saw the death tolls spike in Italy because they literally ran out of hospital space and they had to dump people off of beds who weren't going to make it.
Plus not many people have really dealt with Pandemics before. We've lived in a decent state for most of the last 50 years. And only now after we've blown off Swine Flu and Ebola that something legit serious is hitting the planet.
My mother has a condition that's given her pain since I was young. If she contracts Corona, that might be it. and that scares me more than anything.
It has a 20% hospitalization rate in fucking china and the virus seems to target chinks a lot worse. Never compare their shitty 3rd world healthcare to literally the best healthcare system in the world. Also China seems to have beaten the virus. And it only took 2 months. So by may this should have been all blown over. Remember how eloba and swine flu was going to kill us all lol. The liberal media is famous for their scare tatatics to secure votes
Political crap aside, I appreciate hearing some potential good news. a BBC article I read says that while a vaccine is in the works, even if it's made by Christmas, it won't see mass production till probably around this time next year.
I had a long conversation with a buddy at work about this. There's two potential scenarios for a vaccine:
1. Vaccine is successful and Coronavirus is added to the list of diseases like mumps, rubella, etc as "solved" diseases
2. Vaccine is successful but Coronavirus mutates so often that it's the same bullshit we've got to deal with every year like the flu
I hope the moron states like Alabama get swept clean of people that think modern heath care is a step toward Stalinist communism. Christ the senate doesn't move fast enough to make those kind of changes.
>Wuhan flu: 3000 deaths
>regular flu: 50,000 deaths a year
Fuck off bernie shill. No amount of fear monging is going to get you unviseral healthcare
None of this PPE is sterile anymore or useful after touching each other like this.
That's assuming we can make a vaccine in a year or two. Ebola's been a problem for decades and we're just now making rolling out vaccinations.
>Best healthcare system in the world
>Have to pay just to get a corona virus test
Which is it?
Hmm, didn't know there was a comic adaptation. Anything lost if you haven't read the book?
>in the rare case that you're not a troll
Look man. I'm just getting sick of seeing this same spam in every single thread, on every single board. And it's always the same thing. "we're all gonna die, the virus can't be beaten, it travels everywhere, 100% death". Just shut up already and let me be for once. Even if I was a 90 year old diabetic smoker, I'd still have a higher chance of dying from anxiety than from corona, because of how much people here are stressing over this.
It's only begun to spread globally.
No one can say for sure what the death toll will be in 12 months.
And these are deaths on top of the regular flu, it's not like we get to pick which flavor we get.
I'm not a Bernie shill. I'm legit scared of this. How is being concerned political?
This isn't the right board for it, and if you're the OP, then you're an asshole because you purposely posted a bait thread knowing full well that you wouldn't be discussing Yas Forums related properties.
If you're sub-50 and are in fairly okay shape, you personally should be fine. As should I. The problem isn't us getting sick, it's a critical mass of people getting sick that crashes the world economy and shuts down infrastructure. My dad is 68 and I literally can't see him for fear of potentially infecting him, and that's just a fact I have to live with until this dies down.
>the best healthcare system in the world.
If you are from the US and honestly think this, you are a brain washed sheep.
Will Corona-Chan beat Ebola in deaths Yas Forums?
Day of Chaos - Judge dredd
It took Coronavirus 1 month to split into two different strains. It's sticking around like an additional flu.
People are stressing because Yas Forums is that unique mix of liberals, new deal dems and neocons and the neocons get their info on the corona virus from Fox News. Which makes them ticking time bombs.
OP here. I am legit looking for recs.
It's expensive cuz it's good retards.
>it's a big deal cuz it might grow out of control 2 years later, I heard about from tumble
Fuck off. China contained it in literally 2 months with a 3rd world health system. I'll be surpised if we even get more then a thousand deaths in the states at the end of the year
>USA
>Good Healthcare
Top kek
Crossed?
A test either works or it doesn't. You don't spend a hundred extra dollars just to get a ten percent higher accuracy rating. It's either already 100% percent or it's shit. If you pay for a virus test, you're literally getting ripped off.
>It's expensive cuz it's good retards.
Ok hold up.
The US system currently bankrupts thousands of people a year and many can't get the care they need.
But socialized health care is (if you believe Fox news) supposedly more costly (its not).
So by your own logic, the more expensive system is better, therefore you should switch to a Scandinavian system.
Also you know that drug companies are screwing people up the ass with pills that cost 10¢ to make and charging $100.
>bitches about US health care being unable to handle outbreak
>country suffering the worst currently is one with socialized health care
Nigga please
Reminder
This.
While I do appreciate the difference in numbers, most of those aren't contagious.
>Also you know that drug companies are screwing people up the ass with pills that cost 10¢ to make and charging $100.
No no no that's the state that's screwing everything up with their darn regulation! Without it we'd have fair prices because my uncle Bob could start cooking up pills in his basement and undercut the companies!!!
Boy do I hate it when some asshole comes into work sick and infects us all with domestic violence.
The point is your more likely to die as a result of domestic violence than corona, despite domestic violence not being contagious.
That's great. Could easily be a stand-up bit.
Except I can stay safe from car crashes by paying attention on the road and minimising my driving, and stay safe from domestic violence by not being a woman. Meanwhile I can catch Corona because someone who doesn't even know they're sick yet came to a public function, and even if I survive it I might end up with scarred lung tissue for life.
And you can minimize your risk of corona by taking the proper health precautions. any argument you make about how you can avoid one form of death you can make an argument for avoiding another. it doesnt change the fact that statistically speaking you are still more likely to randomly be bit by a snake and die than you are to randomly catch the coronavirus and die.
I just might give this a look. Thnx.
When was the last global pandemic declared
>Ctrl+F
>No Walking Dead
???
2009 with the H1N1 outbreak.
It ultimately infected 1.4 billion people and killed 575,000.
The Spanish Flu had a kill rate of 2.7% and still killed millions.
user, nearly every developed country outside the USA has socialized health care.
> contained
> world infected
Pick one
I cant minimize shit lmao, because of crohn's I'm immunocompromised. If I get wuflu I get the pleasure of asphyxiating on my own lung fluid all thanks to some assholes who thought "it's just a flu bro"
Fucking liberals, am i right?
>NOT THE BOOMERS NOT MY HECKIN BOOMERINOS NO NOT FROM THE HEALTHY SHMEATHLY CARE SYSTEM
>between 10 and 30 times more deadly with twice the rate of infection
>just a slightly worse flu
Lol
>It's either already 100% percent or it's shit
You dumb motherfucker, take a basic stats class and learn about Bayes theorem
>it's expensive because it's good
>highest infant mortality rate in the first world
Americans are just adorable
I think Y the last man
I said I think because I only read the first couple of issues
You got it lucky, I got an asshole boss who keeps throwing snakes at people and HR won't do shit about it
