So can anyone provide a link or de facto information regarding the 80% wage contribution? Who precisely gets it? If someone is in isolation and can no longer do their job remotely, will they be entitled?
SARS CoV-2 coronavirus / Covid-19 (No tin foil hat silliness please)
- Thread starter Don't Kill Bill
- Start date
Where i live (Louisiana) has a similar outbreak to Italy whereas they have a population of like 60million we have a population of 4million, Mardi Gras really didn't help.
Alcohol can work as a disinfectant but I think you need over 60% to kill the virus so it would probably kill you if you drank 60% pure alcohol

Yeah I read about that. When I said alcohol, I meant drinking alcohol (wine, pisco, etc), not pharmacy alcohol. I should have been more specific.
Maybe the answer changes?
I mean, if the virus crawls down your throat, wouldn't mind to have some regular wine poured down to keep it nasty for the fecker.
It really shows the power of social media and false information.
Thanks for confirming how drunk I was/am. Spain is fkin mental.Seems to check out right, at least for UK and Italy, the other two at a glance look correct.
Percentage wise it has slowed down in Italy even though it doesn't feel like it.
At this point Italy had only tested 42,062 at that stage. UK tested 72,818 plus.
On March 11th, Italy had tested 73,154 with 12,462 confirmed cases and 827 deaths.
Maybe some homemade potchen would suit you better
Use fecking water. Covidiots.
Wine is 12-14% ABV. Hand sanitisers need to be 60-70% to be effective.
The alcohol concentration required to kill the virus would also kill the human.
USA has the about the same number of cases as Spain but 1/4 the deaths
Dunno if this already been posted but no harm in a 2nd viewing.
I've been drinking a lot lately and felt no symptoms so it's possible (highly doubt it though)
So it does work.
Most of the recent focus in the West has been on Italy, Spain and France. So I thought I'd take a bit of time to look into the situation in Iran.
It's nigh on impossible to find anything in English that isn't politically motivated (usually either anti-US or anti-Iranian).
For what it's worth: 20,000 cases and 1,500 deaths. It's a humanitarian disaster that deserves to be acknowledged as more than just a political pissing contest.

From what I read its usually an average of 17 days from detection (or is it infection?) to death, so that number for the USA could very well spike.
Probably more testing and the first patients in earlier stages. Also US population is younger in average and other several variables
Also going to my local sainsburys and Iceland, I see the same people working there as before. Aren't these guys super exposed to picking up the virus? Masses of people walking by them in 1m wide aisles..
I know they have a basically essential job to do, but I can't help but feel like they're endangering themselves and possible even others if they have it and are asymptomatic. Strange times we live in when a shopping trip could be potentially hazardous.

NY state has a 41% jump from yesterday ( it has been averaging around 35-40 for almost a week now).
Do we have the US data City wise ? Infected cases ?

Can't keep up with the pace of the thread but a few asked about rapid tests. Here's one.

Thank you for a detailed reply, I appreciate you taking the time to explain yourself. It definitely makes a better discussion, than dismissing the various links I've provided as biased.
Just to make it clear, in my opinion, the Chinese scientific community did all it could in dealing with the virus (and still is). Just like doctors in the rest of the world, some of them make mistakes.
The issue is not with these types of actions. It is with the authorities silencing those professionals who raised the alarm as early as mid-November.
I haven't seen any western government threaten doctors not to publish their opinions. So, in that sense, the Chinese bare a lot of responsibility, beyond any mistake made by any professional or official.
I could be wrong, but to me, of all mistakes done since day one, the one silencing Chinese doctors has the biggest effect on the entire world. If we (the world) had another month or two to prepare for the pandemic, surely many lives would have been saved.

Why would it? I have a 57% proof bourbon. There are many cask strength whiskies that bottled at 60+%. Rectified spirit is around 95%, possible but not recommended to drink undiluted.
Not city-wise, but this is state-wise.

We have had very few cases in proportion to our population till now. Much lower than everywhere else. You'll be fine.
Unless she had a stop over in Europe or Dubai. Even then, your chances are small
Fauci is in such an awful position. He's built his reputation over a lifetime and he's putting it on the line by balancing things to make sure he's staying in Trump's good graces and making sure his voice is heard.
You were probably more of a risk to her than she was to you.

I can only assume that the interrogation took place in a police station, and not at the hospital. If you don't want to consider that an arrest, that's up to you.
Floor leaders (in both Senate and the House) are not constitutional positions, so they are not in the line of succession (despite that in McConnell’s case, he is the second most powerful person in Washington).
Are you talking about for disinfecting surfaces with it or disinfecting your bloodstream? Because it most certainly won't be 57% in your blood. And if it was you'd be dead, your body cant take more than about 0.25%.
For sure. I was responding to the post that said it would probably kill you if you drank 60% AVB. I took it as in drinking a 60% spirit.
"Are you getting hammered again? - Nah, just disinfecting my bloodstream"
Another optimistic view, from a news outlet that's very critical of Trump:

I know no one is planning much in terms of travel right now but this has the latest travel restrictions for every country. I think it's kept fairly up to date.

Mid November? Can you share/quote a source for this?
I read this paper and a few other ones involving the same drug. Seems at least promising. People are talking about the small sample size but within that lmitation, the result was dramatic.
Some version of this paper and an earlier Chinese paper examining the mechanism of action of quinone had made it onto an Indian whatsapp forward. As a result, stocks of quinone have disappeared from chemsts because of people trying to use it as a preventive medicine, even though both studies use it as a cure not prevention. I hope the govt steps in very soon.

Edit: First case was traced back to November 17th. First whistle-blow was late December.
