how countries like Germany or Italy

have so many infected

while Iran (allegedly) doesn't

Democrats should be fed upon.....

>ignoring popular (aka democratic) vote in the party primaries
>pushing a candidate who's senile-as-fucc and only became known through obama's "see? i'm ok with the establishment. look who my VP is!"
>he insults own supporters
>"we can only re-elect trump"
>he says "i will ban your AR-14s" to a factory worker that came to him
>he's gone from the public eye during an unprecedented time of crisis
>taking advantage of republican senators' quarantine to block the stimulus check over partisan politics

at what point do we get to say the democrats want to lose the 2020 elections?

"I'm suppose to ask you for something this election... but I forget what. Can I pat your head?" - Joe Biden

@ryvergate I believe this is partially due to mass migration. It overloads the healthcare sector added that the western ethnic people tend to not have many children. It can be other factors but I haven't fully looked into those.

taiwan's notoriously unaffected by the CCP virus despite proximity and frequent travel

their policy about this pmuch starts with "don't trust china, china is asshoe"

maybe the rest of the world shouldn't trust china either

I mean should we trust any authoritarian state?

true. the only good info you'll get from an authoritarian state is what they *do*

as opposed to what they say

hecc, applies to less tyrannical regimes too

applies to everything

@ryvergate clearly allah helped them

smh

I still hear people saying this is overblown and the flu kills way more

I have never heard of hospitals getting filled to overcrowding over the common flu

in fairness people who die from the flu dont go to the hospital in the first place

The symptons for most people are mild I believe the issue lies more on how fast corona has been capable of spreading causing like in that article hospitals becoming overloaded and more frequent vulnerable people being targeted thus killing more.

im pretty sure the flu kills people quicker

with 0 warning

corona takes weaks

assuming it doesnt give you a heart attack

It's the lengthy incubation period that's making the difference then

incubation just increases infecivity

and how redonkulously contagious it is

With flu people would stay home with symptoms and spread less

nothing to do with seriousness of symptoms

or what lichlord said

also there's no vaccine for it
there's a flu vaccine

eh

flu vaccines arent that good

in the worse years flu vaccines only help 20% of people that get them

in a few months it's killed more than MERS and SARS combined did, and these got a HUGE head start

Well that mostly the virus mutating like a crazy bastard

every virus mutates

it is hardly unique in that regard

he meant mutation *rate*
