All eyes are on Mexico now. They are living life as normal and doing nothing. They do not have the capacity or capability to support thousands of sick people. They will look to America for help once it gets out of control. When we don’t help we will look like the bad guys.

Don't worry, no matter what we do with Mexico, the LSM can be counted on to try and make Trump look like the bad guy.

Considering the deadly diseases that India has to deal with daily, not surprising they have to threaten shooting the populous to get them to take coronavirus seriously. It's like being worried about the guy with a BB gun when they are dodging bullets.grumpy wrote: ↑Wed. Mar. 25, 2020 11:27 amNot kidding around...

B, after readin the first page of those diseases--many have treatments that will HELP manage them. What really stuck out was the DONATE links. As far as complete cures--per-say flu's--they mutate so fast it's almost impossible to have a cure all. BUT, I do know a lot of research is being done on ALL of them---although personally, I figure if they haven't come up with anything during my 74+ yrs, what are the odds???? As for the shoot on sight in the Indian village--might be needed to get peoples attention!! There's unfortunately a lot of fckn idiots all over the world---ex: Spring Break in Florida.

And over the last several hours, per the Johns Hopkins Site, it's been going up at roughly 10K per 1 to 2 hours...Lightning wrote: ↑Wed.

Yeah I've seen a couple videos of these "wet markets". Its totally disgusting how they handle that stuff, the unsanitary conditions.. Hard to believe its allowed. I wouldn't be surprised if other countries (like the US) don't put pressure on China to fix this problem, especially after this round of pandemic. I mean, is the rest of world just going to sit back and tolerate this so it can happen all over again? Possibly worse next time? *censored* like this could potentially wipe out the human race..

The most critical thing to watch on their site is the exponential graph in the lower right hand corner. It is beginning to look like a classic "Hockey Stick". And that is not good at all.BunkerdCaddis wrote: ↑Wed. Mar. 25, 2020 3:53 pmAnd over the last several hours, per the Johns Hopkins Site, it's been going up at roughly 10K per 1 to 2 hours...

In Maine on March 12th we had our first case...in 12 days we've jumped to 179...average of nearly 15 cases a day. I know it's not New York, but it kinda hits home when it's in your backyard it kinda makes take notice.
