That’s what I’m talking about. Now that’s a proper mustache! Looks like Ennerdale to me, maybe a bit of Grasmere in there too.
My office is an hour outside DC, 25 people work there - today, seven out with the flu. (assume none have the Corona virus....)
Smoking Polish Condor did this to my local pipe club!
The real question is how one must make a pipe hole in the mask that is perfectly sealed! ??
For Gods sake don't straight arm salute your neighbors! A simple wave will suffice...
Yes, and use ALL of your fingers.
I went to Costco to get some pork ribs for dinner and I couldn't believe the mob buying out bottled water and toilet paper. It's a flu. More than 20,000 people died from flu last year . Get yearly flu shots wash your hands often. Don't worry be happy have a smoke.?
I'm not worried about the health implications to myself, personally.... but I am very worried about the implications economically, access to supplies... and travel.
I am planning on flying to the US in a few months, and travel restrictions, insurances etc have me worried. It's already having huge consequences, and if this is just the tip of the iceberg, then there will be lot of crap that goes along with it.

This will not be accepted by many but it's a fact that the Coronavirus came from a laboratory. There's a govt germ lab just up the road from the fish market where it started but I'm sure that's just a coincidence.
It's been proven that AIDS can be replicated in a lab. It first spread from two cities where they were trialing a vaccine for Hep C. Another coincidence.
Ebola is another. It came from monkeys, lol. Hilarious.
The planets biggest threat is the burgeoning over population. Constant growth will kill the planet. So what to do?
The authorities would never tell us the truth.
Bill Gates African vaccine program does not have good intentions. That's where new virus will emerge. And maybe other 3rd world countries. Western countries wont be spared. A thinning of the herd.
Again the authorities will say 'It came from monkeys'.
Sometimes a Hitler Moustache can suit a person/kitty. Whether he's always dreaming about invading Poland while he's eating his morning kibbles is unknown ?
Yeah im worried. Looks like about a 5 to 15 percent mortality rate and a basic reproductive rate as high as 6.6.
Which means that everybody is going to get it.
I live in the middle of a big city in a seniors bldg. if things start shutting down it will be a desert and i have neither the money nor the storage space to really stock up on anything.
What i dont see anyone talking about are possible mutations, in the 1918 flu epidemic there were three waves as the original virus mutated twice.
The first wave was a little more serious than the flu. The second wave killed virtually everyone who contracted it and mercifully burned out quickly and the third wave was about as the first.

I don't believe Covid-19 is the one. But I do believe eventually there will be one that has a very high mortality rate and kills a lot of people before we can do anything about it. It's hard to predict when that will happen.
I'm concerned by what I'm seeing. Incompetence by governments, ineffective quarantines, economic disruption, fear mongering on a grand scale, spread of misinformation and conspiracy theories, a run on supplies. When the inevitable big one hits this is a small preview of what we can expect.

I can feel my throat getting sore as i read this thread. I sneezed on the pixels in this post.
The way you seem to contract the disease is by coming into contact with people, so maybe try a MAGA hat like Larry David did. BTW I like the bit at the end where the lady mistakes Jeff for Harvey Weinstein?
The hype is too convenient. Blew a lot of stuff off of the news cycle. Also blew the China protesters off the streets. As Paul Newman said, "Coincidence, I think not."
Where's the link to the legitimate organization or scientists espousing this "fact"?
Every time I heart a theory about a large scale conspiracy like this, I just find it hard to believe that someone thinks that you can get a bunch of people to keep shtum. Especially, if someone say's "they've heard..." If someone has heard, the press would have been all over it.
