Terrible take. God gave you free will, the ability to reason, and to think logically. Use that gift.
I just saw a stat that said 0.005% of China's population contracted the virus. That's about 1 in 20,000. And that's a petri dish of a country. So if that's accurate, we should be ok.
So what are you suggesting we all do? Are we all supposed to just stay home till this blows over? It's not like we are going around coughing on people. I think we are all taking reasonable precautions. What should we be doing that we aren't doing right now?
What we've got here is a failure to communicate.
I believe your lack of panic is making some think you are going to go around and lick all the door knobs.
Did you see the drastic measures they took to keep it that way? They locked down Hubei. No one could leave their homes, and officials went door to door testing people and isolating the infected in quarantine camps.
It's like if I don't completely agree with their side then I am morally reprehensible. Where have we seen this before...
Nah, he said nothing should change. Keep having mass gatherings of people and that this wasn't a big deal.
Just take the L and start listening to public health experts. You have no idea what you are talking about.
Again, what are you suggesting that us skeptics do differently? You keep criticizing anyone who disagrees with you...so explain what I should be doing differently.
Maybe don't go to gatherings of 20,000+ people and then boast about it?
And stop acting like a victim. Nobody is attacking you or calling you reprehensible, but when you start talking about government-forced absenteeism and downplaying the virus as a media-induced attempt to make people panic, you're gonna get some pushback.
This is from CNN: Australian health officials are unsure if the Hanks caught the virus in Australia. The wife had just performed a concert in Beverly Hills and flew down. Way to twist like a twizzler.
ALSO: I’m sticking with NO BIG DEAL, as evidenced by the fact Tom Hank’s son (in the article below) states his father told him they aren’t really even sick.
Anyone remember that scene in LOTR where the hobbits try to warn the Ents about a serious threat. They took a week to determine the hobbits weren't actually goblins. That is this thread
We need an Entmoot and fast
Lmao just give us some more time to complete the Entmoot and then we can all go storm Isengard.
1. Stop downplaying this as some trivial disease overhyped by the media. Your political bias is dominating your decision making.
2. Don't leave home if you have a fever with a dry cough or respiratory distress. Call the doctor's office before going in.
3. Wash hands often and cover your mouth with your elbow to cough or sneeze.
4. Don't touch your face.
5. Keep a distance of at least 6 feet from other people as much as possible
6. Given how far the virus has spread I'd probably avoid mass gatherings at this point.
7. Disinfect high use items like your phone.
