Maybe their planking?  

Seriously, this looks like a regular block.  One block and maybe 20+ bodies.  I don't know what proof needs to be out there that the numbers are much, much higher.  But tomorrow,  the Chinese government will post their official results,  and media outlets will claim we're winning.

Looked like one of the bodies moving at 00:28 mark.

The reason for the bodies moving, and the bicycles..

 

Reminds me of the time in high school I went to a Chinese restaurant with some friends after football. It was around 4 PM and back then a lot of Chinese restaurants used to close in the afternoon. When I pulled on the door and noticed it was locked I peaked inside and saw about a dozen Chinese dudes laying in the middle of the floor like a pack of sardines. Freaked me out, looked like some Heavens Gate shit just took place.

Did anyone else see a barrage of cruise commercials during sports this weekend?  They might want to rethink that. 

High potential for a ‘Wives and the stupid shit they say/do” thread crossover

Maybe it's been answered already but what's going to happen to the actual cruise ship?  

It will get disinfected and then sold and resold a couple of times and the name changed and put back in service eventually on another line and most people will never bother to look up the history.

Yeah, it cost $500 million to build so I don't think Carnival will scuttle it or whatever they do with cursed cruise liners.

they said on the ticket this morning that so far they’ve only cancelled cruises up to april 20th I think.  so if you’re booked to set sail on april 21st you don’t have to change your plans.

This seems promising. Traditional Chinese Medicine can cure the infection. 
 

 

 

My understanding is that traditional Chinese medicine has always been used hand-in-hand with western medicine.  not to mention that China isn't far removed from having relatively very few Western medical doctors.

Americans still hold onto many unproven is not disproven medical treatments as well.

Say the Chinese use an herb to treat a disease. The US has assays for most diseases. So, we would isolate the active ingredient in the herb if there is one. Then we would try to improve on that molecule to improve the safety and efficacy profile. Then the molecule would enter clinical trials and become a patented drug.

So 14 Americans tested positive 2-3 days ago but aren't symptomatic?   That's pretty interesting

Be curious how transmissible it might be in an asymptomatic case.  It would be less so, but how much more so without the coughing, sneezing, snot boogers being projected into the world?

This whole cruise ship nightmare started because a guy that was asymptomatic was on the ship on the PRIOR cruise.  Seems to me like it is very contagious either way.

Broad on Fox News just said that people have to worry about Chinese bubble wrap because the air inside could harbor the virus. OMG!!!

There’s a reason why Qanon is popular among their viewership.  I’ve actually avoided looking at what those idiots are saying, although a few times I’ve looked up Alex Jones.   His ex-wife is probably getting a little extra money from his prepper sales.
