His chances of getting in a car accident are high risk too, in that case. Take precautions Nuke, but stay loose, don't panic.
In this case Nukraine Dog is just being expended down range as cannon fodder
At the very least the employer should provide PPE, but he probably doesn't have any
It's hard to find Lysol wipes even

Have you done any prepping or just business as usual ?Hastur wrote: Fri Mar 27, 2020 2:48 pm My son is 17. 18 this summer. His girlfriend has moved in with us for the time being. Her mother has just gone through chemo and is back home. Girlfriend doesn't want to be totally isolated and she doesn't want to expose her mother to infections so we have a third child for now.

I release a bioweapon into my own population, immediately declare a full lockdown and hide all the deaths. A few weeks later, it's spread to the rest of the world, and I just have to fight off incoming infections from travelers.
No overt aggressive action will ever be proven, because I killed the guy that did it. Just took a lipstick sprayer and a walk through the market.
Eventually the target will have the vaccine and then there will be a demand side bounce back

New York City really is the Hot Zone
It's starting to kill doctors and I ain't talking old doctors, young doctors
Don't take your eyes of this bug DrY
Don't listen to Capps
This is WMD

If it is some a diabolical plan by China, it doesn't win them anything and has a ton of downsides, so it's completely counter-productive and a full retard plan.Smitty-48 wrote: Sat Mar 28, 2020 1:50 amBut what's the end game ?SuburbanFarmer wrote: Fri Mar 27, 2020 8:27 pm Imagine I'm a totalitarian regime running on fumes, and I really DGAF.

More likely it was in their Wuhan Fort Detrick lab and broke containment and they just don't want to admit itStCapps wrote: Sat Mar 28, 2020 1:54 amIf it is some a diabolical plan by China, it doesn't win them anything and has a ton of downsides, so it's completely counter-productive and a full retard plan.Smitty-48 wrote: Sat Mar 28, 2020 1:50 amBut what's the end game ?SuburbanFarmer wrote: Fri Mar 27, 2020 8:27 pm Imagine I'm a totalitarian regime running on fumes, and I really DGAF.

Re: SARS Pt. 2 - Wuhan Boogaloo
Some young people die, that doesn't mean the mortality rate among young people is high, or even that high among young doctors, though I imagine it's higher among young doctors than other young people who don't work in health care. Anecdotal evidence for the fail, where's your stats bro?Smitty-48 wrote: Sat Mar 28, 2020 1:54 am New York City really is the Hot Zone

Seems like you are arguing against a strawman that says absolutely no young people are dying and that I'm giving DrY some really bad advice that I never gave him.
