South Korea is the model to emulate, not Italy, not China. Those who suggest otherwise are SIFCLFs who think government is the solution to all problems they have no idea how to actually solve. South Korea didn't do the best because the populace listened to them, they did the best because their government did the least damage with their recommendations and regulations, doing more damage would have made the situation in South Korea worse, not better.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Mon Apr 06, 2020 11:52 amSK was the first to stop travelers from China and apply local quarantines, lockdowns and social distancing. The reason they haven't had to use draconian measures is that they have a population prepared to listen to advice and do what they are told.StCapps wrote: ↑Mon Apr 06, 2020 11:32 amSo do like Italy does even though they fucked up the most aside from China.Speaker to Animals wrote: ↑Mon Apr 06, 2020 11:26 am
Dude, take a gander at places like Italy. Once you let it rampage through your population, you are getting Black Death numbers you fucking loon. The economy is fucking dead no matter what. Sacrificing millions of people isn't going to change that reality.
Great plan, Bob. What could possibly go wrong with emulating the biggest fuck ups instead of the smallest fuck ups?
It's not even that they are a more docile populous, it's because they were hit hard by SARS 1 and remembered the lessons learned. More geography than social differences.
They were also better prepared in terms of equipment which has helped contain and track the spread.
All achieved through central planning.
There's little difference between Italy and the rest of Europe or even the US in terms of procedures, healthcare standards or preparation. They just suffered because they had less time to prepare.
This assumption that the bigger and more draconian the government crackdown, the more lives are saved in the long run, is for pro-big government simpletons who think the most counter-productive solutions are actually the most effective.
