Just a little “diablog” pointer for J.C.
Wow…the only real disease is the Medical System/Nanny State have usurped everyone’s ability to help themselves. I smell self imposed martial law.
whose butt are you sniffing
Due to exposure to toxic crap in desert storm i have copd. I’m paranoid about this as i watch it multiply. I’m a math guy. My math teacher used to say love your parabola. He really got the point across with the math behind them and what it means. These geometric increases in infected individuals are staggering. Yet i feel its equally as likely to be just another way to go after trump. Russia gate, impeachment, now corona gate, blaming him for a bunch of problems he didnt create. And the more real it gets, the less truth we’d hear in order to reduce panic. The more unreal it gets, the less truth we’ll hear to maintain an approved level of panic.
When we were at sams club, the guy parked next to us as we were leaving asked if it was crazy in there. It wasnt. But for how much longer?
Free membership right now at sams club btw. They refund your membership fee and give you a ten dollar guft card with your first purchase. Taking advantage of the panic in a smart way. And they have the best prices on thick cut bacon. We git six pounds. Like 3 bucks a pound. Hannaford is 7 bucks where we normally shop these days.
I predict a parabolic spike of COVID-19 cases is coming very soon; potentially even among those showing no symptoms:
Top coronavirus expert Dr Fauci says four million tests should be available by end of the week
In the meantime, those quarantined on the Grand Princess cruise ship are running out of their life-sustaining meds while eating meals sporadically dropped outside their cabin doors.
Indeed. Coronaviruses are now threatening folks in previously unimaginable ways
Gates-funded program will soon offer home-testing kits for new coronavirus
Why are you so viscerally against the possibility that there’s more to Covid-19 than “normal” flu?
“Normal” flu has a mortality rate of 0.1% (1 in 1000), Covid-19 between 2.5% and 5% (1 in ~30).
“Normal” flu has an R0 of ~1.2%(1 in 10), Covid-19 has an R0 of 2% and 5% (2 to 5 in 10) . Even the WHO is leaning closer to 4% to 5%.
So using “Normal” math. you’re looking at a shitload of problems.
Just sayin’
I think the news is going to reveal that this particular virus is something new:
A pandemic that caused an infodemic.
My husband heard the term on the TeeVee. I’m surprised I didn’t think of it first, but I’ve been busy inventing Diablogging.
Infodemic. I like that….I like that a lot. 🙂
Follow-on to my previous comment. It’s people like this, because they are NOT taking this serious, who’ll likely help spread this thing and kill people.
F’n idiots.
Hey, I have another corona story, stop me if you’ve heard it already.
Just Sayin,
It’s flu season.
The flu has already killed 10,000 across US as world frets over coronavirus
But hope for the best and prepare for the worst, I say. If we’re not having fun, we will be learning something. It means we can’t lose.
The flu virus is endemic. If the COVID-19 virus becomes endemic, it will reoccur annually like the flu, but with up to a 30X fatality rate compared to the flu.
Unloved, are you going through a divorce or something? I can’t understand your lack of empathy. Your bedside manner sucks.
Dr. Uncola – You’re going to experience the worst pneumonia and you will feel like your breathing through a coffee straw but hey, the flu kills more people every year so chill out, stop being such a drama queen. Just get a grip, old timer, it’s not the end of the world and I’m sure if you die, I will be that much more experienced handling this sort of thing.
Read this and see if you can continue with this “it’s just a bad flu”.
Apple: I’ve got my own set of lung issues, ditto for keeping a watchful eye….
i told mags i think you like ec she is a blabbermouth
I like big red. Maggoo is blabbermouth. I think fleabo is moving in on mygirl. At least I still have you, Paulita.
i think big red is a dude–not surprised that you’re attracted to it–
I think Big Red and Tampa Red should have a contest.
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=big%20red%20challenge
You jealous of B-Red, T-Red? Afraid she’ll take Flea away from you?
flea is my bitch,if i can’t have him nobody will–
comprende ?
Damn. It has come to this. I thought you were a little too solicitous of Fleabo.
I saw flea making his move… he tried for Mary Christine a year or so ago, but I think he realized she’s out of his league.
Did you see Otto? Here’s my Otto.
Me and Flea both. Nun types are a male fantasy, you wouldn’t understand. And don’t get me started on nurses.
We all know about the naughty nurse. Would it surprise you if I told you about my childhood friend who got fired from a local hospital so she joined the Navy Reserve and spent 20 years in the service.
So, she got fired from the local hospital for several incidents of inappropriate behavior with patients and other staff members. She was kind of a real nympho. I opened my blog in the local area (no names not yet, but am thinking See Mo’ Booty Blog is a catchy name) and a classmate of mine died from being a drunk. He was a really foxy guy in his younger years, though and I knew she’d had an affair with him while married. But, she’d pretty much had an affair with everybody we knew if they were interested. I posted a little announcement and message of sympathy and she posted there drunk and told (at that time) 500 people she’d had sex with him several times and that he was a very nice person. I deleted the comment as soon as I saw it, but it freaking cracked me up.
She didn’t realize the comments just post on my blog, like here. I don’t filter and sometimes don’t look. She’s lucky I happened to check that day and it wasn’t there more than an hour. I never told her it had been on the page and that seven people liked it.
I know she sounds a bit like Airman Rangel’s wife, but she was different. I’m thinking there was a medical ship in the Gulf War that saw a lot of action.
I just know these people; I don’t judge them.
jc the biking science guy is doing a recearch piece to explain the societal shift
he’s too young for me but he is still hot
You don’t have boobs big enough to get away with such atrocious spelling. Stick to little Navy words, Paulita. What the heck is recearch?
Dark humor is like food.
Not everybody gets it.
Panic, No I don’t believe panic is ever good. My reason for discussing this topic here and with friends and family is to try to wake up and inform everyone so as to avoid panic. It better to face a threat with your eyes open then to close your eyes and deny what your facing is real.
Bullshit. You offer absolutely no new information that people aren’t already easily able to obtain anywhere else — and are already inundated with — and the best you have to offer is to tell people to “wake up.” You are not unlike about six dozen different idiots I am forced to interact with on a daily basis at my job who can’t keep their big mouths shut, though I suppose at least being you’re only yakking at me on the internet, I’m not exposed to your spit.
