It hasn't been around that long just a matter of weeks really the real test will be in say 6 months time. Might be best to remember that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBG 150 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Quote If you want to bash someone, take it to the Rants and Flame Wars section. No need for a discussion thread to become a name calling thread like many others. Just because you don't agree with a persons opinion doesn't mean you have to spout off with derogatory names. Not that it takes too much thought to know who you really are. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well for someone to come out with such a stupid,juvenile and disgusting comment like that deserves all he gets in the current world situation whatever bloody thread it is in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If world leaders are taking action against this virus and more and more events are being canceled, it is because there is an immediate risk of contamination on a larger scale than now, do not give the pleasure this virus to do even more damage than it can do now We can talk about natural selection or that the planet regains its rights over humans, it is still human beings who die because of it 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyone Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 The above twitter references the seattle response--but it is primarily flu related if you delve deeper into the tweet. This is the most current report from the CDC dated 2/29/2020 Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) WWW.CDC.GOV Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a virus (more specifically, a coronavirus) identified as the cause of an outbreak of respiratory illness first detected in Wuhan, China. An excerpt from the article. At this time, however, most people in the United States will have little immediate risk of exposure to this virus. This virus is NOT currently spreading widely in the United States. However, it is important to note that current global circumstances suggest it is likely that this virus will cause a pandemic. This is a rapidly evolving situation and the risk assessment will be updated as needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot more people die from it each year. That is why I do not get all the fuss they make about it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a start there are vaccines for flu which are regulary updated as the flu virus is forever mutating this is why, in the UK at least, free vaccinations are given every year to those at most risk. At this time there is no cure or vaccine for the Coronavirus which makes it potentially very dangerous and more so than flu at this point in time bearing in mind it is in it's infancy. This is why the fuss, as you so detrimentally call it, is being taken very seriously by governments all over the world, again if you haven't noticed. Next question? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
