SARS CoV-2 coronavirus / Covid-19 (No tin foil hat silliness please)
- Thread starter Don't Kill Bill
- Start date
Such a load of shit.
SARS was gonna kill us all. Swine flu and Bird flu was gonna kill us all. Ebola was gonna kill us all. I'm sure it's a serious illness but it's deadliness is amplified 6000% to fill 24 news cycles. No-one will care about this in two weeks.

Private hospitals. All the Chinese students that come here are loaded
Is that really racist? I means it’s exaggerated but some of the stuff eaten in China would push the culinary boundaries for many!
Of course there are cultural differences but live mice / bats - wtf
What the actual feck??
That was Ozzy Osbourne.
I'm living in a country which still worship the monarchy, yet I wouldn't label 60 odd million people as backwards(Although Britain is in fact a horrible shit hole). China has a population of over a billion people, to make a wild statements such as - ''Chinese will eat anything with legs except a chair'' is just plain old racism.

First confirmed European cases in France today. One in Paris and one in Bordeaux.
Feck me, I work with French people. And I have a cold. I better make a thread asking whether I need a doctor..
and it was 1982
They’re not videos of people that have the Wu-Flu
It’a funny though. Undeniably funny. Very tight joke.
They’re certainly not to blame en masse. But if you eat animals that can bear deadly pathogens that you buy in an environment where cross contamination is almost guaranteed and cleanliness is a distant afterthought.... you’re not helping yourself.
To be fair Chinese say this about themselves. When I was in Beijing last year our Chinese guide said exactly those words.
feck me, I work for a Chinese owned company...
It’s like Russian roulette typing in “Coronavirus” on twitter and not seeing a post of a weird dish....
Really feels like the world (and all of us) isn't taking this seriously as it should.

The toll is going to be a lot higher than what the authorities report.
Feck me I'm wearing Chinese made trainers. Better take'em off and burn them at the back garden.
Its risen to 41 confirmed dead now....with 1300 current cases and supposed 3% death rate thats going to be closer to 100 soon
SARS death rate was up to 15% so that's not so bad
I wouldn't be surprised if there was 90,000 infected. Apparently that's the estimate according to another translation of the video. I mean Wuhan has population of 11 million. Also found quite an informative video in the comments which is worth watching.

This seems much more contagious though. SARS lasted over several months and didnt spread as quickly, there was approximately 8000 cases. There already is 1000-2000 Corona cases and it potentially being in the 100,000s going by some reports..
Possibly some good news
So what they're reporting is that one guy who had the 3% mortality rate virus went to the hospital and didn't die? Amazing.

It's no laughing matter and I really feel for the medics trying to treat the sick people. They must be desperate and exhausted.
Not really, though. They don't eat chairs, but what about tables.
Joke. Wrekt.
Did you see the video where the nurse is absolutely losing it? I'm pretty sure it's a legit video.
On a serious note, my colleague just came back from China this week. His wife is due back next week.
I'd say there are slight grounds for me to be a little worried.
How do you have a mortality rate if this guy's the first person to be cured but there are thousands of people who haven't been cured yet?
Shock horror it originated in China.
I read various articles which gave that figure as the mortality rate like this one from the public health correspondent for Wall Street Journal. I'd like to think they aren't just plucking figures out of thin air.

Bought some face masks for a tenner online. Just in case.
Sounds about right. The first case came about in early December (iirc). Takes a sheer amount of stupidity to allow it to grow to this current level. Twats.
It just seems a bit premature if only one person has been cured up till now.
I want to laugh because I assume this is a joke...right?
