THERE IS A BUNCH OF "ITS A FLU, BRO" FAGS HERE, DON'T YOU THINK?

categorically false and every sense of the word

They’re just worried because they don’t know what to expect.

With flu there’s a season for it. They know a bad flu outbreak goes away by the summer. But with a COVID they just don’t know. It could go on and on indefinitely and just keep spreading.

Looks like it is tapering off in China though so that’s good.

Remember humans, the Wu-flu is just a chest cold. If you don't live in constant air pollution, or smoke, or eat poor quality food, you have nothing to worry about. WHO fear mongering was the same for Swine flu, SARS and Zika, all of them were either hoaxes or complete non events. Regular Flu kills 300,000 gooks every year. This is mild in comparison.

Ebin post i look forward to further conversation about this topic

It's not.

ha as if humanity hasn't survived and become stronger through disease. this faggot little pandemic wont cause an extinction level event

germaphobic induced mass hysteria is the real disease.

>On the other you have people who think it's the end of the world.

I haven't seen any happeningfags give that grim of an appraisal for a while now. Maybe in january when it looked like the virus was dropping young people like the spanish flu in china.

I trust GOD
I have no control on this crAp

Well memed my friend this is also podracing

There won't be a conversation. You will google it and stand corrected

>Influenza virus
>Corona virus
Phylogenetically distinct.

H1N1 Outbreak in 2009 was way fucking worse than this.

H1N1 killed estimated 500,000 people worldwide. COVID-19 has only killed around 4,000.

Nobody panicked for H1N1, they didn’t cancel everything. I just remember huge lineups at the mall for flu shots that was it.

This is mass hysteria.

>It's an emergency, we can't close our borders-we need more globalism to fix this problem goy; how about a new currency and loans from a global central bank?

>niggerflag
the WHO is doing anything in their power to stop fear mongering, including downplaying the virus, they are paid by China to play it cool.

>COVID-19 has only killed around 4,000

It's only just begun. Do you know what per capita even is or what?

You can't compare it with the flu because they are not the same. The Covid hast done major damage because it's on control barely by a thread.

>Coronaviruses are a group of related viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds. In humans, coronaviruses cause respiratory tract infections that are typically mild, such as some cases of the common cold

>The flu comes on quickly, while a cold develops gradually, usually with a sore throat and runny nose. Fever: A common cold rarely includes a fever of more than 101 degrees. Flu symptoms, however, usually include an initial fever. Cough, body and muscle aches are also more common with the flu

3 months of this boring shit.

LARPER

Covid is just starting. Also there is only around 4000 confirmed deaths, not estimated.

WHO is a branch of the UN. They would never, ever suggest closing borders for literally anything.

its been 3 months and not even 10k deaths. its flu level. also the normal flu is circulating

soooo the normal flu can kill 4k chinks in a random given year. a few hundred elderly die in any given year in america from shit like and including the flu

wake me up when we get 1 % of any country killed with it. china has 1.4 billion people. more than india as of like 4 years ago.

>that are typically mild

Except even by the most conservative estimates covid-19 is WAY worse than the flu.

As for it being in the same group... Yea, same GROUP. They are still completely different. A sparrow is not a robin.

but it hits harder than a simple flu

Even by the absolute lowest estimates H1N1 was averaging over 12k deaths per month.

Based and nothingburgerpilled

If that were true people would be dead. It showed up in china in November.

Same broken record from you faggots.

>exponential growth of new cases
>nothingburger

If millions of people have covid-19 all at the same time it will be worse. I just don't understand what's so hard to understand what "per capita" means.

>Countries all over the world going into lockdown because everyone is going to catch the flu
I hope you die first because you're so fucking dumb

The flu is endemic to humans and never starts anywhere close to 1 person infected, coronavirus just started. The peak of the first wave is going to be brutal

>wake me up when we get 1 % of any country killed with it.
No one cares what happens to you

WHOOOOOOOOO CALLLS CHINA VIRUS AN EMERGENCY
SPONGEBOB SQUARE PANTS

How many days has it been stuck at 6516 deaths? 4 days, 5 days?

News flash: the actual number of people that had COVID-19 is like 10x higher.

They just never got tested for it. My brother is a doctor he said there were way more fucking people coming in sick last month than now.

They didn’t get tested because there was no mass panic from the media and they didn’t have testing kits.

The only people who got tested were old people that were really sick. That’s why the death rate seems so high.

The peak for infections was actually last month. Most people just thought they had a bad flu that was it. Some of you fuckers that thought you had bad flu last month might have even had it.

>1 yuan has been deposited to your account

>if
Yawn

Surrounded by complete retardation, I can't take it anymore. Can't even grasp the simple concept of "per capita". It's just too much to ask that people know what this means I guess.

Yes, the shills were deployed last week. They're trying to keep people calm. There are dozens of them from many different organizations across the world

lol

>it just hasn't gone out of control
user, I...

It isn’t shit. The bodies aren’t hitting the floor. People are going out of control for nothing and medical staff are bitching that’s why shut downs are happening.
If we didn’t have an immigrant population that was straining our healthcare system it wouldn’t be an issue

6 6 6

I’d say there are a fair few countries lying about the numbers.
Shot doesn’t get locked down for no reason. Italy seems to be the most transparent about it.
As if you’d be retarded enough to believe anything coming out of China.

Which makes most posts even more retarded
>the real rate is actually x amount higher
>it will kill you in 48 hours without x
Meanwhile its been months and nobody is dying. Toddlers are recovering from it.

Deaths:
6,516

Joe biden is going to say some completely bullshit senile number about the coronavirus one day, it doesn't make it any less dangerous

It's worse than the flu because the r0 is higher and the mortality rate is higher. Zero people could be infected in ohio, which was true not too long ago, and the trajectory for the virus to eventually fuck everything up would be the same.

Yeah, and it doesn't have to be as bad as it can if people heed the warnings. It's better to be a happening fag and remove yourself as a potential carrier to the public than be a dumb boomer and take no precautions at all and spread it around unknowingly. This shit spreads itself seemingly very well and the people being too carefree are making things potentially worse.

People weren't even panicking and shutting the world down with Ebola, and Ebola had a fucking 70% death rate.

The death rate for COVID-19 is somewhere between 1.4% to 2.3% of CONFIRMED CASES. 80% of people who test positive for COVID-19 are asymptomatic or show only mild symptoms. It is likely that the number of known cases of COVID-19 is only around 20-30% of the total number of cases - which means the actual death rate is actually closer to 0.4%.

Yes, it's worse than a typical flu which has more like 0.1% death rate, but it is seriously not worth fucking worrying about.

Mass hysteria is absolutely correct. We're causing far more damage to ourselves by overreacting to this shit than would happen if we just ignored it completely.

The shills are attempting to increase the chaos and cause panic. Something else is going on. Maybe an attempt at population control or intentionally crashing the market. Either way, only 60 dead in the U.S. compared to 60,000 dead last year from influenza. Everyone has water, electricity and food so it probably isn't too serious.

italy was one of the first countries to have a travel ban on china and was the hardest hit outside of china.

The PRC is waging information warfare against the GOP and USA in support of DNC given that none of their candidates proved popular. All of this is an effort to restore the treason that was happening at the behest of China under the Obama-Biden administration.

Europeans depend heavily on Russian oil / gas. They do not like Russia having a lot of leverage over them in this way. Poland / Ukraine are the eastern border of Europe as far as Western Europeans are concerned, so they want NATO running a defensive corridor there.

The Middle East primarily sells oil / gas to China. They do not have pipeline access to Europe, and the United States blocks pipeline access to China via Afghanistan (which we occupy, for this exact reason).

In the middle of the Obama regime, they toppled Egypt / Libya, specifically by supporting rebels in eastern Libya. You probably don't know this, but eastern Libya is the highest per capita recruiting grounds for al-Qaeda anywhere in the world. They are the ones who were largely responsible for building IEDs that killed most of our troops in Iraq. Lots and lots of American blood on their hands. These are the people Obama supported against Gaddafi however.

Why? Libyan weapons stockpiles were shipped to Syria. The plan was to overthrow Syria and then Turkey. The intention here was to open a pipeline path from Saudi Arabia to Europe. The easiest way to do this is Jordan / western Iraq > Syria > Turkey > Europe

The fallout of such a pipeline opening up goes like this: Saudi energy becomes cheaper than Russian (easier to extract than Russian, but comparable delivery prices once a pipeline is available from Saudi Arabia to Europe). Europe switches to ME energy. Russia then has to switch to selling to China. Afghanistan is no longer valuable real estate in controlling Chinese energy sovereignty. The West has no controllable territory between Russia and China to cut supplies > China obtains effective energy independence, superpower status

I wish everyone treated it as the middle ground right now. If everyone downplayed it, the situation would get worse. If everyone overplayed it, the situation would get worse (for different reasons).

Ebola spread from nigger shit, not a coof. Was much harder to spread.

DONT BUY MASKS

355,145 years to kill everybody then. Spoopy.

dumby. A higher death rate is better because they usually spread very difficultly and are adressed ffaster. covid 19 is dangerous because it goes undetected with a 14 day iccubation period.

The reason numbers are going up in North America is because more people are getting tested.

Clinics around here only got testing kits last week. They couldn’t even test people for it last month.

Obviously the numbers are going to go up if they only started testing people on a wide scale.

>trying to keep people calm

What are you talking about?

Even if you multiply detected cases by 10x to 50x the numbers are still small because this is the beginning of the outbreak.

No one has ever advertised this is a fast acting disease. Incubation period is 12 to 14 days, it's a slow acting disease, that's why its so infectious. It also takes a little while for pneumonia to kill you.

Infants, children, and young people aren't vulnerable. But the severe cases and mortality rate gets high at 50+ years of age which is enough to take out your grandparents and bring your economy and healthcare system toits knees trying to protect them.

People are dead as fuck in countries deeper into the outbreak, like china, iran, and italy.

Why do I see more and more first time Yas Forums posters? Lurk before saying dumb shit here, or just outright shit post. It's higher quality that what you have going on now

The next global pandemics is from this list choose wisely

Of course the globohomo would oppose closed borders, even under the threat of a massive death toll.
