We were right to be worried buddy. I really hope everyone understands that now

There’s only one solution to this and it involves a sock full of coins

Calm down, Carlin.

…ith a cunt of a brother who isn’t pulling his weight one little bit and has engaged in selfish, manipulative, bulllying and hectoring behaviour for the past 10 days and just denied me watching Maradona so he can sit there gormlessly with a cunting channel on he isn’t even watching. Fucking thick cunt.

@ChairmanDan just didn’t want to see Diego mugging off his beloved England.

Yes but I never claimed there were millions dead, I said a dissident had reported on the phones number.

Who exactly is this “dissident”?

If you’re reading the Epoch Times, you’re reading laughable propaganda.

…proved for COVID-19 but it’s been around for a century and pretty safe at recommended dosage.They’re not doing it because of anything Trump said. They’re doing it to see if it can lessen the numbers heading for ICU. There’s some research out there from China and France and China has been doing trials.

Neither quinine nor azithromycin are antiviral mate, not really.
The rest of your post is too ill thought out to warrant further comment.
You have a habit of reading whatever you want to in a post, and then arguing something that was never put in the first place.

…On one thread you are decrying the USA trying to pass new powers to tackle the corona virus as a dictatorship.On this thread then you are saying the government need to crack down and deny everyone their human rights.Do yourself a favour and go for that walk mate.

Different countries have different challenges. Broadly speaking though there are three categories of people, the great majority that are following the rules and helping out, a subset mostly young who think it’s a bit of a laugh and a good talking to at first and maybe a sterner measure like the French are doing with fines. Then there are very small minority that are taking advantage, breaking into people’s homes, trying to scam old people over the phone or online.

I’m not sure what we should do with the last group, the courts are falling apart as there are no jurors etc. it’s going to take some fairly heavy handed measures if this goes on and the scumbag are not tackled. I think here it will be the national guard on the streets or maybe the army.

[anon7035031]

Take your own advice mate. I don’t say a word about the antibiotic. Do your own research on the limited studies that have been done on quinine and hydrochloroquine. There is some evidence it interferes with the process by which the virus enters the cell, and we know it slows down an immune response as it’s been used for RA and Lupus for decades.

Why do you think China is doing a clinical trial? Why do you think US medical facilities are starting to use it on COVID-19 patients? Because we are in an emergency and need treatment options really badly. People are dying mate we have to try different things and we don’t have a vaccine.

Stay strong guys. I can find my resolve is flagging a little but I’ll hopefully build it up again by morning.

God bless you all.

I have empathy for you and your Italian roots. It must be especially hard for you to see what is happening.

I don’t have the words to try and encourage you.

@artfoley

My take on it art is that it is so infectious, and so durable, that most people will get it. It’s a totally false analogy. A better analogy is that you have to eat one of fifty skittles, of which one will make you very I’ll.
You’d fancy your chances.
This is all about so called flattening the curve, rather than reducing the overall number I would think, but it’s all guesswork, like everything thing else.

[anon78624367]

For someone that is vulnerable, all the skittles might as well be poisonous.

We all need to behave as if we’re vulnerable

[flattythehurdler]

My point is that I suspect, sooner or later, the vast majority will contract the disease. In the vast majority of those it will be a relatively minor ailment. These measures are not about reducing overall numbers, they are about spreading them out into smaller peaks.

[anon7035031]

The reality is this virus is everywhere, its been spreading for the past two months and most people didn’t even know they had it for one to two weeks during incubation, or maybe thought they had a cold. Meanwhile people were leaving it behind on surfaces everywhere. At this stage it’s more like all the skittles are infected, or that’s what you have to assume.

Agree with you we all have a high likelihood of getting it at some point in the coming months, and the great majority will survive it and most will not need hospitalization. But it’s a hell of a moral dilemma on all kinds of fronts, the extremes health care workers are being put to are a bit frightening. there’s a lot of them coming down with it and they are in very heavy viral load environments. There might have to be a plan B soon I think.

@Julio_Geordio

Who isn’t taking this seriously? I would say by and large people are taking it very seriously already

The ones not taking it seriously are idiots sadly and you can’t reason with an idiot.

You can however arrest, beat or shoot and idiot.

Here’s to shooting idiots .
