You can't even confirm their actual population to the nearest 100 million. It's not a like a few funeral pyres are gonna move the needle for them. They're on a mission from God /bluesbrothers

It's a billion dollars. The ECB shits a solid billion before breakfast.

Wall Street used to worship what we would call "quants". These PhD's would promise the universe, and very frequently, they delivered. Until they didn't. Because, from time to time, the underlying assumptions behind their models would be violated. It's something the rest of us like to call the "real world". You can model stuff and draw conclusions, but ultimately, your results must match the real world. And in this case, what we see a lot of are superspreaders. People who, to take one obvious example, might work as a flight attendant. Or a roving home health specialist. Whatever. The model isn't as robust as one might think, and we don't have time to test all of this out. Second issue. If you restrict everyone more or less to their home for a period of time, fine. You've slowed the virus. You better have that vaccine ready, or else a month or two later when you let everyone out of their cages, and they commence to drinking and fucking and all those things humans do, the disease comes back in a massive way. The goal here is herd immunity.

This motherfucker found a 1906 us Army emergency ration. He proceeded to eat it.

Wasting away again in Quarantinaville........

Supposedly. this is what Italy will be doing in the quarantine areas. I do'nt think Italians will comply. People work until 5PM, they aren't shutting down restaurants at 6PM. Most don't even open until later than that. The border enforcement wasn't effective to start with, they lack the manpower. How do you have mass with 1m between every parishioner? Not gonna happen.

Italy lockdown area. Keep in mind, Carabinieri are letting people in and out anyway. It's kind of a complete joke. The whole country needs to stay home from work for a month. Like I've been telling people from the beginning, get a couple months of rice and beans.

Again, that's another point nobody disputes at all. The point is that once it's gone well past being contained, it's a waste of resources to try and contain it. Quarantine is likely to induce panic as people start getting more and more hungry.

Who is advocating that?

The extended quarantine around Lombardy is an example of why attempted containment is idiotic. They're doubling down, when they need to realize it's already out of containment. It's a waste of time and resources and it encourages panic when people realize the government has no idae what it's doing. Italy has a federal police force (Carabinieri) who can likely be used for containment. No such force exists in the US, and there are just too many roads and rednecks, there will be no such containment in the US in any case. Focus needs to be on marshalling medical care resources and protecting vulnerable populations.

Fucking people won't respond when I send them emails trying to buy their cars. Shit's aggravating yo.

This is one of those moments that reveals an issue with efficient market theory. There is no way that the financial difficulties have been quantified correcly and outlooks adjusted. It's not just about getting stocks a little cheaper. It's a matter of understanding the broad economic impacts, especially on balance sheets. Lots of bad earnings news coming. Banks in particular are at risk, although that is always mitigated by central bank action. But when your customers just stop paying loans, well, let's just agree that european banks are the ones most exposed to this. Italian banks in particular were already zombies, Deutsche Bank also. This is a true financial analyst's dream come true. It's not the headline stocks, it's specific companies that will go to zero or earn a windfall as a result of the virus. This is going to go on for the rest of the year, and nobody was prepard for that. A British airline already went bankrupt, we'll see a lot more of that in the near future, as well as many unexpected financial stories. Just a true financial analyst's dream come true.

No amnesty for my stupid shit. I just realized how Google knows when a freeway is jammed up.

And fuck Charlie Strong.

Gravity?

The call is coming from..............INSIDE THE HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rhome is lovely in August.

Only for you, hoss. https://www.zerohedge.com/health/six-reasons-why-covid-19-fails-sniff-test (More on that in # 3 below) And this from a few days ago: Governments Will Use The Coronavirus Card To Downgrade Estimates And Increase Interventionism Additionally, the John Hopkins people have been incessantly interviewed throughout the cable news universe. Now consider the timeline: On Sunday, February 2, 2020, the first COVID-19 death outside of China was reported: Indeed. The Gates Foundation. And the hits keep coming. What about the timing of the first recorded COVID-19® death that occurred outside of China? It was one day before the Iowa Caucuses were held (2-3-2020) where the results were massaged to raise Mayor Pete over Bernie and bump Biden to the bare minimum viability. It was also two days before the Diamond Princess cruise ship was quarantined in Japan (more on this in # 4 below) and three days before Trump was acquitted in the Senate. Certainly, it would be a stretch to believe the hype behind a “new” global virus would be geared to somehow affect the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election… but in the age of 911, Russiagate, and Operation Ukrainian Impeachment – would anything surprise me? Nope. Probably not. However, it could be that everything we’re seeing regarding COVID-19 is real; which would be amazing since it would be the first time in decades the Orwellian Media got it right. Maybe even the first time ever. And, now, it’s been reported Coronavirus® “threatens to disrupt” the 2020 Campaign. And what about The Guardian? Always The Guardian: Coronavirus: Pence defends Trump Jr claim Democrats want ‘millions’ to die | World news | The Guardian Why, those tenacious Brits are everywhere. Even on the ground in Washington State? Coronavirus: Washington state nursing home placed on lockdown | World news | The Guardian Because Coronavirus® is everywhere. All day. Every day. An especially good benchmark is what’s being reported via cellphone apps because these are primarily what the Bubbleheads see. The headlines are also queued onto internet browsers and e-mail platforms. This from Yahoo News recently: Global virus death toll tops 3,000 as cases soar around world But after several paragraphs of doom, we read, way down the page, that the second death in Washington State was… Again, nothing to sneeze at, but still not the Bubonic Plague either, as it seems to be presented in the media. Like SARS, coronavirus is pneumonia. But is COVID-19® worthy of the hype with a 1-3% mortality rate? Especially, when most of those who have died were considered “medically high risk”? Again, it seems the panic over COVID-19® is causing more problems than the virus itself. So maybe Churchill had a point when he said: “The only thing to fear is fear itself.” According to the World Health Organization (WHO): pneumonia killed 808,694 children under the age of 5 in 2017, accounting for 15% of all deaths of children under five years old. That’s 67,000+ a month! Little kids dying around the world. Where were the headlines? But COVID-19? Less than 100,000 infected and a little more than 3,000 reported deaths at the time of this writing. And that’s the John Hopkin’s numbers. But even IF the reporting was bogus and the mortality rate was as high as 6 to 11% as some have claimed, then wouldn’t faulty reporting mean the number of infected could be higher as well? And wouldn’t that reduce the mortality rate also? Furthermore, if COVID-19 spreads so easily, then why only less than 100,000 cases worldwide? Especially considering that China is the most populous nation on earth. Now consider that Aspiration Pneumonia has a mortality rate of 21% overall, 29% hospital-associated, and 30-62% in “older, sicker patients”. And, according to the CDC Weekly U.S. Influenza Surveillance Report: Honestly, it seems COVID-19 has even less stamina worldwide than Joe Biden on the campaign trail. The New England Journal of Medicine has speculated that coronavirus could be no worse than the flu: So is COVID-19 real or is it a marketing gimmick? How would you know for sure? 2.) “The Eyes of Darkness” Paradoxically, Coronavirus Was Eerily Predicted in a 1981 Novel: The severe “pneumonia-like illness” was to “spread throughout the globe” in what year? Answer: “in 2020”. The story also featured a scientist named Li Chen which is an amazing coincidence considering a guy by the name of Li Wenliang was the actual COVID-19 whistleblower in Wuhan who, by the way, was a 33-year-old ophthalmologist. Yes. An eye doctor. Coronavirus kills Chinese whistleblower ophthalmologist – American Academy of Ophthalmology So, let’s see… 2020 Wuhan, China Pneumonia-like illness Spread throughout the globe Li Chen (when Li Wenliang was the actual whistleblower – an actual eye doctor) Kind of adds a whole new dimension to 2020 vision, no? 3.) October, 2019: “Event 201” in New York City & the 2019 Military World Games in Wuhan, China Most sources point to December 2019, or January 2020, as the beginning of Coronavirus®. In truth, it started in October 2019 – when the Event 201 conference took place in New York City and at the exact same time the 2019 Military World Games were holding its opening ceremonies. The video embedded below is the Gates Foundation / John Hopkins “Event 201 Pandemic Exercise” highlight reel. It was posted on 11-4-2019 and showcases “GNN” (simulated) “news anchor reports” designed to generate (simulated) urgency: In accordance to my last article entitled: “The Pluses and Minuses of Perceived Slyness, Stuffed Sinuses, and Coronaviruses”, note how the above video demonstrates a real-world U.N. Contingency Team (a consistent Hollywood remedy) arguing for increased centralization and coordination between the U.N. and World Health Organization (WHO) with “private sector supply chains”. Beginning at the 7:01 mark, the “GNN Simulation” factors how “THE PANDEMIC IS CAUSING A GROWING GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS” – followed by commentary from real-life Chinese and U.S. CDC officials. At the 8:15 mark, the GNN news simulation addresses how portions of the internet were shut down to “quell panic”. And, if you don’t believe Coronavirus® is about control, then watch the “Scenario Epilogue” from the 10:03 mark to the end. Keep in mind the “Event 201” exercise occurred in October 2019 and corresponded exactly with the 2019 Military World Games, hosting 110 nations and thousands of military members from around the world in… yes… WUHAN CHINA…. amidst a “malaria” outbreak in what we now know to be as ground zero of the Coronavirus outbreak weeks before the virus was first reported. Accordingly, the Global Times posted an article entitled “Five foreign athletes from military world games in Wuhan infected with malaria, not COVID-19 in October, 2019: hospital head”, that has since been scrubbed from the internet. However, here is a screenshot showing the search result as proof the article once existed: Do you believe in coincidence or conspiracy? You’re probably right. 4.) The Diamond Princess Remember the Diamond Princess Cruise ship where the coronavirus quarantine was described to be a disaster? On February 4, 2019, the day before Trump was acquitted in the senate, the ship was first quarantined with 2,666 guests and 1,045 crew members on board. The Guardian reported the following on 2-5-2020 By Feb 8th it was reported 63 people were ill and by Feb 10th, 24 Americans were said to be suffering from coronavirus. Then, a week later, the cruise line itself updated the following on their website: 169 new cases on February 18th and the “end of the quarantine and disembark process” on February 19th and 20th. Seriously? Really? According to one report so far, six people who were on the Diamond Princess have now died with 705 of the 3,711 infected = a 19% infection rate within a poorly handled quarantine. We also know at least two of the deceased were in their eighties. Given the quarantine began a month ago – either the incubation process takes longer – or – the death rate is far lower than 6-11% as some are now claiming – or the testing or reporting is FUBAR? Regardless, something is off. Because shouldn’t we be hearing more dire news on the Diamond Princess passengers by now? Especially given the first-person accounts of the overall sloppiness of the quarantine itself; and the alleged high infectivity of the virus. Now consider this: Infected U.S. passengers aboard the Diamond Princess cruise ship were brought to Travis Air Force Base in northern California . Then, days later, the media exploded over the first case of “unknown origin” in California. Except, reports said… Oh, and where was this person infected via “unknown origin”? Answer: And guess where Travis Air Force Base is located? You guessed it: Solano County California – just northeast of San Francisco. So I ask you: Do the governing authorities and media want the virus to spread or the fear of the virus to spread? Now consider another first-person account: “I have the coronavirus. So far, it isn’t that bad.” By Carl Goldman, The Washington Post|February 28, 2020: It’s also true that some of the Diamond Princess passengers were flown to Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. So… let’s see… before their test results were back, authorities migrated infected Americans from a cruise ship to buses and then airplanes. Then, they planted the highly infectious patients, and their spouses, in California, Texas, and Nebraska. What could possibly go wrong? Oh, yeah. Oops! Even Dean Koontz could not have imagined it better. 5.) Control These just in… like clockwork; and right on schedule: Epidemics like coronavirus are putting a spotlight on contactless biometrics And Coronavirus: China to boost mass surveillance machine, experts say and It also appears Americans must prepare for “significant disruption” and Orange Man bad: CDC warns Americans of ‘significant disruption’ from coronavirus Once again, it could be this latest incarnation of coronavirus is a real killer and the mortality rates now being reported are completely bogus. Perhaps the Chi-coms started the conflagration to smoke-out the protests (and protesters) in Hong Kong. This slick embedded video (right here) shows cell-phone footage of the crackdown in China. Perhaps this is the real suppressed news regarding Coronavirus®. It would certainly qualify as a possible motive – and opportunity. And, relatively speaking, Wuhan / Hubei province is in (somewhat) close proximity to Hong Kong – and, even, Taiwan. Or maybe the global financial elite wanted to burn down China’s economy and cause civil strife in order to secure Hong Kong and/or Taiwan. Or it could be the globalists desire the Asian flu to spread like wildfire around the globe in order to centralize power with a new world order and cashless financial system. It’s also possible the Centralizers have been trying to light just the right-sized fire for some time with the burning matches of Bird flu, Swine flu, SARS, MERS, et al, all of which, so far, have extinguished upon the damp grass of the human immune system – and prior to the flames taking hold. It could be they got it just right this time. If I believed in coincidences, I might even say it could be naturally occurring. Maybe the time has come – and, as the musician Frank Zappa previously predicted, the “illusion” has become “too expensive” to maintain” and we’re now about to “see the brick wall at the back of the theater”. It any event, it appears Coronavirus® has arrived on schedule and at the perfect time. And here is an article speculating on why: 5+ NWO Agendas Accompanying the Coronavirus Epidemic Centralized Control of Information, i.e. Censorship and Narrative Control The Cashless Agenda Martial Law Quarantines Mandatory Vaccination Bill Gates’ ID2020: Digital Identification via Microchipping Agenda 2030: Wuhan Slated to be one of China’s Smart Cities Is the Coronavirus Epidemic a Race-Based Bioweapon? Again…, a bad cold, a bioweapon, or a Biblical plague: At this point, what difference does it make? 6.) Considerations Regarding COVID-19, Trump, & the Economy It is very interesting how the same people who, just a few weeks ago, were talking about Trump taking the blame for any economic downturn prior to the election, are now accepting of the current market carnage as due to Coronavirus. And this is no surprise because the Orwellian Media has universally blamed the COVID-19® outbreak for the economic volatility. Here is another example from one of the largest news sources in the digital bubble, Yahoo, which is incessantly spraying smart devices around the globe: Coronavirus has ravaged the stock market and the extreme selling may just be starting Won’t coronavirus take Trump off the perception hook for the economy? Because the global financial elite COULD have crashed the markets and then blamed Trump (and Brexit) for the sins of nationalism, populism, tax cuts and trade isolationism. But now, if COVID-19 takes the blame, how can the Dem’s tack it to Trump before the November election? Because, right now, the only ones who look bad are those who are politicizing the outbreak = Trump’s opponents and the media. So, what are the implications? And will they matter? There remains the possibility that COVID-19 could actually help Trump get reelected; especially if the virus (with its low mortality rate) fizzles in the sun like SARS. Keep in mind Trump also initiated a travel-ban in January as a response to COVID-19 – a move that as widely ridiculed by his opponents. And if this was a manmade and/or marketing campaign to burst the bubble, what do you suppose are the actual implications of that? Think it through very carefully because the ramifications are yuge. No matter what, it remains to be seen if Coronavirus is one of the best things to happen to Trump prior to November 3, 2020. Or the worst. Conclusion There are far better depopulaters than COVID-19 – like AIDS in Africa, as an example. But… advertising works. Ask yourself what would happen if the headlines were all exclaiming COVID’s 98% survival rate. And perhaps an even better question is why the headlines are NOT exclaiming COVID’s 98% survival rate. What is the real propaganda here? Who do you believe? W.H.O.? The CDC? The Orwellian Media? The Democratic presidential candidates? Team Trump? The Drudge Report? The Alternative Internet? Why? Because, it seems Coronavirus® has all the appearance of “hype”– like it’s being milked for all it’s worth. Like trying to prop up Joe Biden with duct-tape and knee-braces to stumble across each state’s primary finish line. But, to be sure, the public reactions, including within the financial markets, are real. Just like clockwork. And I do believe vaccines and quarantines have the potential of being more dangerous than common, or even uncommon, coronaviruses. It could be COVID-19 was tweaked to become highly infectious and maybe the elite loosed the virus on the unsuspecting Chinese as an end-game checkmate; and are now using the media to hype it for all it’s worth. Or maybe the Chi-com’s have used the virus as cover to neutralize “infected” protesters. In any event, it appears governments have strived to create panic and financial collapse to promote a hoax that would accomplish the destruction. Why? Because they feel it’s time. There's a good amount of paranoia, but lots of excellent, thoughtful arguments, and some really interesting facts, that you will dismiss entirely in your quest to build a moat your delicate sensibilities.

Would.
