@SoCalFX You have to go there if you're talking about that topic
Besides people can definitely be truly asexual
@qwasi Only in the debate channels
@Deleted User <#513098563924918273>
Only in their own mind
I can agree if someone has a low sex drive
but you cant wish your sexuality away

gotta go
its a marketplace though
lol
@abby_ella haha there won’t be a recession. Supply chains are designed to be resistant to exogenous shocks, it’s not enough to create a downturn.
The stock market will continue to be volatile but I’m sure the drops are finished
Wait, you mean to tell me the world, as we know it, isn't going to end because of Coronavirus?
Yeah I mean it’s not like Ebola. Most people survive, it’s the elderly and weak immune systems that are dying
@sɪᴅɪsɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀᴇ We’ll see soon, I guess. Either way, prepare for rising inflation
Nah it won’t be anything drastic
The financial impact will be far greater than Ebola
The problem is not deaths, it’s massive hospital overcrowding and insurance use, and huge drops in retail and service
Honestly if you think this is all going to just blow over and be cool, you have not been paying attention to the numbers coming out of the WHO
There are about 925k staffed hospital beds in the US
If there’s a 40% transmission rate
That’s problem for sure. The supply shock will come from those who need those hospital beds, plus all the additional people who don’t need a hospital stay but have to miss work
With a 19% hospitalization rate (per WHO)
That’s 24.8m hospitalizations
Does a 40% transmission rate mean that 40% of people will get the virus?
Total hospital admissions in a year in the US are about 36m
Yes
Admittedly bombastic title but:
So there are 159 million full- and part-time workers in the US. So that’s 63.6 million sick workers. Granted, it’s likely that they won’t all be sick at the same time, but that’s going to have an economic effect
And people staying home and not patronizing those businesses
40-70% is the projected infection rate
69% increase in hospital utilization
So conservatively like $125bn in hospital costs?
Probably closer to 200bn
The raw averages say 248bn
@Sophie Have you not seen the jobs report?
Coronavirus shouldn't impact the economy much
Uuuuuh
