Denmark will run out of pasta, flour, milk etc. tomorrow in super markets. Then the question is when the next shipment will arrive.

From an individual selfish point of view (and I thought it too), I guess so. If we really believe that 70% of people are going to have it, then better now than when there are no beds. So going to leak the bus seats now.
If everyone reaches the same conclusion, God save us all. The curve is gonna become a Dirac distribution.
Came across this saying that you can make masks from household items: https://www.consumer.org.hk/ws_en/news/specials/2020/mask-diy-tips.html
Aside from looking like a fool, any thoughts on whether that look legit?

Has there been any truth to the theory that there is a dose adjusted infection response? Some people were suggesting that the medical professionals in China albeit young got worse because they had prolonged exposure to patients.
Just catching up on the thread. @SportingCP96 definition of "life threatening" and their persistence has been a rare moment of genuine hilarity in all this bleakness.
Supermarkets in Denmark released a statement asking people not to hoard stuff and there's enough for everyone to last more than two weeks.
That's how many hours from now?
Without being a expert on the subject the situation in Italy is quite alarming to say the least. Impossible to predict but not optimistic with the situation in Europe. No mood for football really.
It is a purely selfish point of view. Obviously I'd rather people avoid it all together but if my family or friends got, I think that's the message of encouragement I'd give them. Better now than it's peaking but hopefully we'll be able to flatten the curve somewhat by taking proactive approach.
3.5
Apparently the masks don't really help. Unless you are infected and are hoping to shield others slightly.
Absolutely terrifying if true... 3 hours in the air!?
Walking in a mall, walking in a Chemists etc.
Where has this virus actually come from!?
No because you can get reinfected so even if you catch now and recover you could catch it again when the health are system is overwhelmed
Elvis look at the post above that you are reacting to, I just tagged you
Feel like so many countries are being let down by their governments response (or lack of)
Someone told me today it actually originated with bats in China, not sure on the facts of it but that's what I was told
Reminds me of Cujo being bitten by bats in Stephen King's novel
Ffs
Thank you
3 hours and 18 minutes to go. Fully expect him to shut down the cruises
The original SARS virus was traced back to bats. This one isn't confirmed yet, but it's also thought to have originated from them. Don't feck with bats.
I really don't see anything wrong with that at all.
This is a really good explainer of how it originates.Someone told me today it actually originated with bats in China, not sure on the facts of it but that's what I was told

I think in both cases the scientist think that it came to humans from some intermediate animal, but it originates from bats.
Chinese (and people from other countries like Indonesia) eat bats. Crazy!
He was selling one squirt for 50p. The fecking entrepreneur.
Taking the tube on London you wonder just how much it can spread there, no one takes any precautions at all and everyone's jammed up into onne another.
On a side note, think I saw someone post a graph showing the projected rate of coronavirus in Germany, France etc in comparison Italy, looked back the last 5 pages can't seem to find it. Anyone know where to find it?

There is no reliable data for being reinfected. Medical professionals suspect it could be due to providing false negative samples.
I’ve stocked a surplus specifically so I don’t have to go to a supermarket in the event of a peak shutdown.
No.
A fast spread will result in huge ICU bed shortages almost instantly. A slow spread will allow people to get the treatment they need.
Which caused people to hoard even more.
That's pretty normal for the majority of viruses. The cold virus can survive for a few hours in air normally and longer on surfaces up to a few days, but influenza generally not as long. The scary one is norovirus which can survive for weeks on surfaces.
He's showing a bit of entrepreneurial talent and providing his peers with essential health services. I say good on him.He was selling one squirt for 50p. The fecking entrepreneur.
One of the most prominent left-wing journos here just twitted that the right-wing government decision to shut down the schools, kindergartens and big events is 'madness'. He then followed by saying: 'I tweeted that for 30 seconds, using a keyboard full of viruses as somebody sneezed on it and was made a coffee by a barista who's just returned from italy - Hell, we're all alive!'.
Honestly, how stupid can you get?

Well at least he was helping people keep their hands clean
I understand that. But if person contracts the virus now, gets medical care, recovers from it, surely that's better for them, instead of them getting it when the inevitable peak comes?
I meant for a single individual not as a wave of patients.
A young kebab king. Kebab lords salute him.
What the feck is wrong with people ? Still going to the gym ffs.
It is pretty much airborne then.
