Coronavirus

People are grossly overreacting. The real problem is all these hoarding retards and the limit supplies. The actual Covid-19 virus is no worse than a slightly mutated flu. As long as youre not old, fat, or already sick youll be fine.
it ill probably blow over in a few months and tank the economy,
no mass deaths or anything; the people over reacting are bored tards. but the first half of this year is fucked if you had any serious business or travel plans.
Just a lot of hype and people hoarding TP for some reason, not a real happening, it's a crappening
Fucks with weekly shopping habits so stock up so you don't have to deal with this bullshit.
The news loves to freak people out.
There is a mass shortage of bathroom tissue and common sense.
The mainstream media has a massive boner right now freaking everyone out, they're causing the mass panic. hate those bastards.
If you're an old boomer who is unhealthy (diabetes, smokes, or obese) you're fucked. I pray that you make it and improve your lifestyle
3% mortality rate, mostly people over 60. If you are healthy you dont have anything to be afraid of.
very bad because strong and healthy soldiers are dying.
Mass hysteria.
both my local walmart and publix are out of toilet paper because dumbfuck boomers and gen xers bought them all out.
Im just gonna order all my shit online.
The sheep have completely ruined everything.
It is a natural virus occurring from a mutation in nature so unless it is stopped and all new cases cease or a vaccine is created we will all get it
>NK soldiers
>strong and healthy
they are all mal nourished and riddled with parasites.
I'm starting to hear rumors that COVID-19 isn't like the flue like we've been told, but a completely new disease that will stay in your body for the rest of your life like HIV.
Imagine having the virus that gives aggressive flu like symptoms 24/7 that can resurface at any given time your immune system falters.
Imagine having to take meds for the rest of your life all because you got infected with this shit.
I'm scared bros.
I heard if you get it your mom dies in her sleep.
I'm scared too bro.
okay keep telling yourself that. why would you put people like that in charge of protecting your country.
Every part of your post is wrong
>okay keep telling yourself that
Telling myself?
Nigger this is common knowledge that the NK govt desperately tries to hide from the rest of the world. NK soldiers are underweight, under fed and over worked.
>why would you put people like that in charge of protecting your country
Because the NK govt doesn't have any better alternatives dumbfuck. Literally everyone in the country is starving lol.
Not just boomers, but sick people in general. Old people do have weakened immune systems though
My mom died when i was like 7 yrs old dude.
That shit only scares dumb zoomers who still rely on their mom to take care of them.
I'm afraid of actual real life shit like this virus.
how new what the fuck
>Old
>Fat
>Already sick
That's at least 60% of the US population.
It's gonna get worse before it gets better.
depends on your countries situation user, it seems like most european countries are handling it quite poorly same with USA, japan and south korea. also hong kong and singapore are handling the virus well, you'll just have to check your local news I guess(assuming its trust worthy), I don't wanna be doom and gloom but normal healthy adults have died of it but being unhealthy obviously puts you at a greater risk, it doesn't just effect old people either it effects everyone, also people who survive it can also get permanent respiratory damage (like with any type of cold or influenza) and its possible to contract it twice, the other problem is we don't have a ton of detailed information about the virus since its new, its not a death sentence but its a dice roll, just say inside as much as you can and be clean, wash your hands and surfaces you touch (WITH SOAP or hand sanitizer), change clothes regularly etc
>actual Covid-19 virus is no worse than a slightly mutated flu.
Italy 3 weeks ago had 3 cases and now it has 20,000.
Now it has 1 death every 4 minutes. Yesterday was 368 deaths.
All the nations have the same growth rate, and we are just behind Italty by 11 days. It's goign to blow up just as much everywhere. We're looking at 480,000 dead in USA, and a few million over the world. that's not "just the flu".
Other than being significantly deadlier and significantly more contageous, we have a flu vaccine and we have none for this virus. Plus we have the flu already so now we get double the deaths. Even if it was just as bad as the flu having 2 flus going around is devestating.
Joe Rogan of all people had an infectious disease expert on and said 480,000 is a low estimate. It has exponential growth.
>3% mortality rate, mostly people over 60. If you are healthy you dont have anything to be afraid of.
Okay take 100 people and put them into a room. I know walk in and announce that 3 people are going to be chosen randomly an executed. 3% doesn't sound like a lot but try to visualize 100 people you know and imagine 3 of them dying. You will know someone in your family who dies of Coronavirus.
The death rate seems to be 0.6% when everything is going well, when hospitals get overwhelmed the death rate rises to 5% because the 20% who get critical ill need assistance and can't get it.
I hear if the virus goes up your dick you turn into a girl.
Happened to my cousin's friend in Ohio.
>try to visualize 100 people you know
Ah shit. Do anime characters count?
Here in my country they have cops guarding the shitter paper isles. You also cant get pasta, pasta sauce, rice, fresh meat cuts, canned foods are starting to go aswell as microwave meals.
but user one person uses 1 roll of TP everyday.
Just think a whole family of 4-5 people. That is 28-35 rolls of TP a week.
TP will be worth more than gold soon.
Very original laughs.
>our gal ciara died before coronavirus hit
Think about that. Bad timing. Would have loved to see her reaction and if she died form it.
Italy's population is full of really, really old people.
It's the end of the world as we know it. Make of that what you will.
Until the 2nd wave hits... and your body is severely weakened by the first wave already.
This is a virus, it's not going to go suddenly away like the flu you retard. Why the fuck do you think the PM of canada went into quarantine.
yeh I heard if you get it twice you'll be at a major risk for a heart attack
Ill give it to you as straight an simple as I can. T. Healthcare worker of 8 years.
>Young people are at no real risk.
>2-7% fatality rate for already sick people, and people over 50 (3 months isn't long enough to find exact death rate)
Here's the issue, and why it's being shilled so hard by governments.
>2-7% of loss in world population is a fucking huge number, if the WHO is right, we'll all know some one who has die from CO-VID by 2021.
>So if 50mil American's get it, that means up to 3.5mil will die.
>And on top of other causes of death (obesity, heart failure, cance, ect )that'll mean a huge strain on the healthcare system.
>We're seeing Italy right now having to LET DIE everyone over 70 years old now, because we have to prioritise the younger people.
>Imagine this happening in every country in the world.
>There's evidence to suggest that 60% of young people show no symptoms at all and the sickness will just come an go from their bodies, which is another huge concern for the sick and elderly.
>This is the main reason for so many quarantines.
TL;DR: Unless you're 50+ or sick you have nothing to worry about, that is unless the healthcare system becomes overloaded.
>0.2% fatality rate for anyone under 40
Literally just a boomer flu but they control the media and want you to panic
Retards hoarding everything at the grocery store and mass hysteria. My boss is about to close down my work which will fuck me over because i'm paycheck to paycheck part time.
Its seriously not that bad, but i'm highly paranoid and suspicious of other people as a result.
Dont even bother going to buy food because more than half of the grocery store shelves will be totally cleaned out, it's kind of eerie, people are treating this like a zombie apocalypse.
Got an early spring break through and my community college is planning on switching to online class- I'm kind of pissed because i'm out of there in May and the graduation ceremony is probably fucked.
Thank you. Its definitely going to thin out population- Im slightly afraid for my parents since they're older, no health problems though. I'm just afraid that I got the virus and I might actually spread that shit to them. Especially with that evidence saying young people could show no symptoms and have it...
>There's evidence to suggest that 60% of young people show no symptoms at all and the sickness will just come an go from their bodies, which is another huge concern for the sick and elderly.
hmm idk about this, last night on the news a doctor from aussie land was saying that this is actually a myth and everyone will experience some symptoms
So...the boomers are defeated.
two options
>pretty much everything will be fine
>a few hundred thousand up to a bit over a million Americans die, almost entirely the elderly.
Sounds like you've being watching too much TV. Once again they're mixxing truth and fiction to sell ad time.
Yes, if you get Covid once, and it causes lung scarring due to pneumonia it's pretty common in these cases, so the second time you get it, it'll be much worse.
BUT you won't get lung scarring if you're fit an health, stop smoking cigs, weed, and JUUL's right now.
If your countries healthcare goes kaput, it'll rise up to 20% for older people, imagine all the 40-50 years you've seen last week, not just family just shop keepers, doctors, delivery drivers. Now imagine 1 in 5 of them die today, it's a huge deal, and a very real situation we may have to face.
Most likely a nothingburger but can cause economic issues and overcrowding of hospitals which will cause people with real issues to die possibly.
>I'm just afraid that I got the virus and I might actually spread that shit to them.
That's the real issue that has people concerned.
Everyone is screaming about how benign it is and how deadly it is and how it's not a big deal and how it's a death sentence. I got no idea what to think of it. I still am not certain of what it even DOES because everybody contradicts everybody. I don't know who is full of shit and who isn't. Every single fucker on the planet is just using this thing and twisting facts for their personal agendas and never says a SINGLE honest word in their LIVES. And they won't tell me the truth or what's really going on. They only say what they think will trick me into "joining their side". I just want to know what the fucking TRUTH is but instead I am given riddles and red herrings and bullshit and propaganda.
>I just want to know what the fucking TRUTH is but instead I am given riddles and red herrings and bullshit and propaganda.
Welcome to 2020. We'd make Orwell proud, only 16 years behind schedule too.
It's hard to say, because firstly, it's a new strand and not enough time has past to draw a real conclusion.
Secondly, people that show no signs or symptoms aren't going to get tested. An interesting peice of data to support this is why kids aren't getting sick, is it because they're somehow immune? Or is it because they show no signs? Kids can hide illnesses extremely well, a good example is that when an outbreak of HEP A happeneds in daycares, it's only found out when the kids pass it on to the adults, otherwise no symptoms. I'm open to being wrong, but it's a strong point that needs to be considered.
Well if you want to use those words, yeah I guess you're correct.
>imagine all the 40-50 years
um, I'm 37. Before i was placing myself in the "young" category. Am I at risk?
>16 years
36. Holy fuck did all that time pass already? Then I guess we're a little late.
To be honest, I'm getting anxious over the whole thing
I always told people to wise up during the fervour over coronavirus a couple of months ago, saying these things happened every few years (zika, ebola, bird flu, swine flu), but coronavirus is different.
It will likely infect at least two thirds of the anons posting in this thread, and while we will all be fin, thousands and thousands of our elders will not survive. Beyond this, economies will be damaged severely.
Personally, as a student, I personally am not scared of the virus itself, but all the uncertainty it brings with it. My university will probably be closed and I'm just beginning research on my dissertation, so I could end up being left clueless and getting a 2:2 for all I know. And what about countries closing their borders? Flights being cancelled? I might not be able to go home to my family until Christmas!
And worst of all is what's happened to the Six Nations; the whole thing is being postponed until October, and half the games will be with fucking Italy which is not very entertaining! And I was really looking forward to that Ireland France game
Do you have any health problems? If not and you're relatively in shape and don't do shit like smoke or drink in excess, you'll be fine.
The media and soccer moms/boomers are blowing it out of proportion. Look at the death toll, it's small, and if you dig deeper and look at the health of each individual that died as a result- most are elderly, 70-80 years old, or had weak immune systems from being a diabetic or another health condition.
Dont sweat it.
I mean healthy 30 year olds have died because of it, its just less likely
I already have it and would rather just die outright than have to go to a hospital. Fuck hospitals so much.
The only thing to be anxious about is the indirect effects of the virus, which is economic recession, travel restriction, business being closed. Not getting sick yourself.
user, the illness itself with be insignificant for anyone on Yas Forums. But our elderly relatives are in real danger. the severity of the virus alone isn't the worry, but when literally millions of people will all have it at the same time? Hospitals will be overwhelmed totally
and schools, pubs, offices, gyms will close for god knows how long. For people that aren't hiki it will be tortuously lonely and boring, and we will all come out of this much poorer and quite possibly bereaved
I don't usually buy into media-propelled hysteria, but this is historical. the worst pandemic since the Spanish flu I reckon
that's what I said think, yeah
>and while we will all be fin, thousands and thousands of our elders will not survive. Beyond this, economies will be damaged severely.
Pretty much, people are so caught up in the "Kill boomer lul" memes, they're forgetting that boomers have a huge effect of the economy. Imagine coming to work and finding out a fifth of your senior members for you company are dead, and the others are locked away in hospitals, you wouldn't have a job, you couldn't just get another job because every other company owners have lost a fifth of their supervision as well. I could go on but I feel like if 20% of the 50+ population were to disappear it would take a few years at least to recover.
It really depends, you should be ok. Just be sure to eat well and not smoke. If you do get sick avoid putting to much undue strand on you body until you recover.
wouldnt that be good for our economy ? Think of future generations... If they would let all those people die they would be the first generation thats actually concerned about future. The world is going to be fyll of old amd sick people so why not just let them die in order to make our lives better.
