Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

What are they doing in China to create all these viruses?

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

I’ll lay a bet that there’ll be plenty more deaths from this new super bug buddy.

As the sun rises, wait till it mutates, then it's isolation.

What are they doing in China to create all these viruses?

Linked just now to illegal trading of wildlife in markets. If you have ever seen footage of these hell holes (don’t google it) they have many many types of wild animals, caged, bound, squeezed into disgusting cages etc and the virus, originally from bats which they take to market, spreads quickly

I would not shed a tear if mother nature exacted revenge for the way this region treats wildlife and this thing did a lot of damage to the people in question. Karma me thinks.

I've lived in the country, let's just say that their personal habits aren't exactly graceful.

Then you've got the markets which are really eye-opening for their lack of cleanliness.

Combine it with the size of their population which is pretty transient and you've got all the conditions needed for things like this.

Seriously dirty meffs those Chinese you know. Not even joking, look at the kip of the place. It was a similar situation involving civet cats that led to the spread of SARS. Scruffy bastards putting people at risk because they can't help but slaughter countless wild animals and f***ing eat them. Yeah I know we can start arguments about our own meat consumption but kin'ell where are the standards?

Time to move to Madagascar or Greenland and petition them to close the ports.

The Authorities need to act fast and stop any travel to and from China or any other country where there has been multiple cases of this virus.

There could be hundreds of thousands of deaths otherwise.

The official death toll from this is already far higher than the CCP will let us know. They're only interested in one thing and that's saving face, they're petrified of the ancient doctrine 'Mandate of Heaven'.

there will be, the same as Ebola. The ports will go into shutdown, the hardest part is obviously air travel but there’ll strict entry rules from anyone from a high risk country

I thought it was airborne...that makes it potential much worse than Ebola

 

[bullybeef]

The authorities always act too late.

I think this virus is highly likely to already be circulating in the uk and other European countries.

Let’s hope they find a vaccine and quick... I don’t fancy me chances.
