people might have been getting this since december... ive had a cough since then...
some people wont even get symptoms at all
but do carry on, making an additional caviat that the true value may be an order of magnitude smaller
may being the pertinent term
@AndrewWithTheBeard Yeah because he can perform acts of God.
then when you've calculated the number of deaths, you need to also then think about how many of these deaths are "excess" deaths, and how many are people who were about to die anyway, but this happened to be the final shove
at the time of h1n1 the death rate was really high... now years later we know it was much lower in reality
Thats just obscuring the events
and there were some people freakin out over it.. my business partner was a bit... but not to this extent
went to the supermarket yesterday - very busy, some cheap lines were out but nothing crazy
was about as empty/stripped as it would be on a bank holiday weekend, tbh
think about this though... all the toilet paper companies.. probably mostly come under one parent company, which will be in the ftse... when their next figures come out... ftse's gonna rocket
Tell me the last time they locked down countries over h1n1
countries came pre-locked down before the 1990s, leohte
and the company that sell all the toilet paper sells all the other food goods as well
theres only about 2 major companies in the UK that parents every company
Id buy stock in unilever tbh
that's why AA is about right with his assessment that we live in a weird form of corporate communism already
the last time we had h1n1 was 2009, at the height of net immigration into the UK... and there wasnt really anything we could to about it
Next step would be to quarantine all the cities
AA?

why would you quarantine all the cities right after the leading virologists have told us that will lead to thousands of deaths?
Stop the rest of us getting it, wacka
Stop it spreading between cities
The usual pandemic stuff
a) that wont stop you getting it
b) it will still spread between cities
are you never going to get a delivery again? never going to buy food?
talking about people, predominantly
and yes, it is effective at slowing the spread
you dont want to slow the spread,
that's why there were only 120,000 cases in China and not 1.4bn
yes, you do
if you slow it too much the virus ends up lasting to next winter
when it will be much worse
and more deaths occur
if you don't slow it up, the health service is overwhelmed and your country disintegrates
are you going to quarantine people for years?
