    I don't think people were offended about celebrities with SARS-CoV-2, I think they said they didn't care much vs. people they know or other random people 
    A world leader is more impactful, obviously.
    This.
    Not sure if I consider Boris a world leader....

    We passed China. With 70% fewer people, we have more cases!

    Get ready to pack the churches on easter!
    So you believe china’s numbers?

    no one knows, but they were welding doors shut to keep people inside.
    Legit story?
    I don’t think the us could lockdown the country like China did. 

    Yup.  Like my friend says.  Only China could lock down like they did.

    China's population is 4x larger than US
    US military spending is 3.5x China's

    The US govt could easily lockdown
    The difference I see is that the Chinese population has been subdued for generations that’s what made it easy for them to be able to lockdown like they did , America’s populations are not subdued all we care about is our Constitutional freedoms you know 2A and the sort..just my opinion 

    I think the bigger difference is China was confined to one region.

    The US is having outbreaks in New York Florida California Washington, it's spread all over.

    Yes, but still to lockdown a state like NY and not even the whole state just the city would take some enforcement by law to keep everyone on lockdown like in China , I live in suburbia Long Island but in areas like Flushing, Corona , Jamaica these are just a couple of areas of Queens which are packed to the gills with people they are tough to control...

    Yes.

    Except for gymnasium (16-19 year olds) and universities. Where people are of age to take care of themselves and do not need a parent present.

    Haven’t kept up with this thread as much, but this article outlines another horrible new reality for some people.  Hopefully the government acts quickly to protect our health care professionals.

    Jose they literally welded the doors shut in apartment complexes to keep people in. No way they are doing that here.

    Do all schools in Sweden have less than fifty kids per school?  If not it doesn’t make a lot of sense.  Hopefully your government does the right thing and shuts down schools too.  
    Stay healthy.

    Trumps not the only lot world leader that fucked up.  The Canadian PM failed us and was slow to react.  Plus back in February he gave China 16 tons of PPE....and the Chinese government has taken 2 Canadians as hostages because that huawii bitch was arrested in Canada...Fuck China.


    Not to mention de Blasio telling people in March this is nothing to worry about, encouraging people to go out, ride the subway, see movies up until like 2 or 3 weeks ago.
    Hindsight 2020 I think a lot of people would do things differently. 
    Where the fuck did you come up with this? Let me guess, just a guess?

    Two to three weeks ago would be March 5th to 12th. Link?

    Direction from the Mayor of NYC is as relevant to the crisis in NYC as anything. You are truly unbelievable.

    I now know someone who got the virus, and it is a TERRIBLE situation. He is the foster brother of my best friend's wife. I have known him for years, and he is now in his 20s. He has very severe muscular dystrophy, and is immobile and 100% dependent on his in-home qualified caretaker. The problem is that both he AND his caretaker got COVID-19 at the same time, and the symptoms are so severe for her that she couldn't even move, let alone care for his needs, which includes feeding him and moving him and keeping him clean, literally everything. While they did manage to get someone who's at least somewhat qualified to drop in at times during the day to care for both of them in his home (after his mother worked her ass off to make that happen), it is a really fucked up situation. Since the sick caretaker can't move him in and out of his wheelchair now, he is having to just stay in it all the time, even to sleep at night (staying in bed 24/7 isn't an option because of the nature of his disability). He is completely terrified of hospitals too, because of past trauma, so insisted on staying home through this even though his special care couldn't be properly provided. They were both in absolutely terrible pain for days. Apparently they are now showing some improvement, but damn.... I hate to think of other disabled people who are put in abnormally difficult situations due to a lack of healthy qualified people to provide the care they need.

    That really is a gut-wrenching story.  I'm glad to hear they are improving and hopefully on their way to full recovery soon.

    Gatherings of over 50 people forbidden in Sweden.
    Are schools still open in Sweden?
    Yes.

    Except for gymnasium (16-19 year olds) and universities. Where people are of age to take care of themselves and do not need a parent present.


    Do all schools in Sweden have less than fifty kids per school?  If not it doesn’t make a lot of sense.  Hopefully your government does the right thing and shuts down schools too.  
    Stay healthy.  
    It is a measure mostly to stop pubs etc, where the crowds are still big and people are still too  close to each other. I would imagine schools being exempt from it. Or them solving not having all kids eat at the same time etc.

    And regarding closing schools:

    The United Kingdom has decided to close all schools as a result of the corona virus. Sweden and the United Kingdom have broadly had a similar strategy for dealing with the corona virus. But closing all schools is not the way to go, according to Johan Giesecke.

    - It is a bad measure that causes so much more problems in society. There are one million children in Sweden who are between 0 and 10 years old. They need supervision, if you close the schools so that one of their parents must be at home, it will have huge effects.


    Should also be noted that Norway and Denmark close their schools because of political decisions, overruling their own Public Health Authority. According to Giesecke.

    Trumps not the only lot world leader that fucked up.  The Canadian PM failed us and was slow to react.  Plus back in February he gave China 16 tons of PPE....and the Chinese government has taken 2 Canadians as hostages because that huawii bitch was arrested in Canada...Fuck China.


    Not to mention de Blasio telling people in March this is nothing to worry about, encouraging people to go out, ride the subway, see movies up until like 2 or 3 weeks ago.
    Hindsight 2020 I think a lot of people would do things differently. 
    Where the fuck did you come up with this? Let me guess, just a guess?

    Two to three weeks ago would be March 5th to 12th. Link?

    At least the OP could link to the faux news article they paraphrased or the tweet you posted, being a follower and all. In their excuse of Team Trump Treason.
    He was right and you shrieked at him. Maybe a little self reflection for once.

    I’ve noticed on this board there is a fair amount of cognitive dissonance. I’m sure I have some of my own in some areas. It seems worse when it comes to the blame the republicans for everything crowd.

    Edit: I’m referring to De Blasio
    Context is everything 
    He was minimizing the threat of the virus like Trump. That’s the context.

    We passed China. With 70% fewer people, we have more cases!

    Get ready to pack the churches on easter!
    So you believe china’s numbers?

    no one knows, but they were welding doors shut to keep people inside.
    Legit story?
    I don’t think the us could lockdown the country like China did. 

    Yup.  Like my friend says.  Only China could lock down like they did.

    China's population is 4x larger than US
    US military spending is 3.5x China's

    The US govt could easily lockdown
    The difference I see is that the Chinese population has been subdued for generations that’s what made it easy for them to be able to lockdown like they did , America’s populations are not subdued all we care about is our Constitutional freedoms you know 2A and the sort..just my opinion 

    I think the bigger difference is China was confined to one region.

    The US is having outbreaks in New York Florida California Washington, it's spread all over.
    Yes, but still to lockdown a state like NY and not even the whole state just the city would take some enforcement by law to keep everyone on lockdown like in China , I live in suburbia Long Island but in areas like Flushing, Corona , Jamaica these are just a couple of areas of Queens which are packed to the gills with people they are tough to control...

    Jose they literally welded the doors shut in apartment complexes to keep people in. No way they are doing that here.  

    ...it would never happen here...
    ...never let a good crisis go to waste...

    I think anyone with an ideology has blind spots, myself included. If someone makes a point or if you wind up flat out wrong about something, just cop to it. But yeah there is another level entirely and cognitive dissonance is a good way to put it.

    Yes it is. He didn't delete it. Clicking on my post takes you to Twitter.
