Interesting to read that in Italy the right nationalists blame refugees for spreading the Corona Virus although it's nice, white business people who seem to have taken the souvenir back home. Also in the United States of Trump our stable genius has given his expert opinion "Trump calls coronavirus criticism Democrats' 'new hoax' and links it to immigration The president was in South Carolina where he falsely called ‘the Democrat policy of open borders’ a threat to Americans’ health ... The administration has faced significant criticism for its handling of coronavirus, as Democrats point to cuts at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) under Trump’s leadership. ..." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/feb/28/trump-calls-coronavirus-outbreak-a-hoax-and-links-it-to-immigration-at-rallyBTW the cuts in the CDC funding was justified by "they normally doing nothing and when we need we can just hire lots of doctors any moment we want". Sound like a real solid business like approach. Maybe Trump should talk a bit with his generals and ask why they always do so many expensive exercises. Well, you have to train to be ready, you can't just call up a few companies and expect them to win a war. The current epidemic is such a war. |

Of course if you have (close) relatives who are infected you'll not only join them but urge all around you to follow?

From 'democrats hoax' to "Our country is prepared for any circumstance".
Mind you, Trump also "plans to meet with drug companies on Monday to discuss next steps."

Doctors in Australia are now saying you will get it. It can't be contained.
Maybe next week, maybe in 3 years.

But only one in a hundred will die. Mainly the elderly and sick. But the rest will be bed ridden between 2 and 6 weeks.

I agree with these Australian doctors, eventually we will all get the bug.
I was reading an article on the BBC News website last week which suggests that once the Antivirus (vaccine) has been discovered we will have to wait for it to be fully tested on animals, then human trials will begin and if the vaccine works and poses no threats to humans we will then have to wait for the approval to go through. After that the vaccine will have to be manufactured and distributed worldwide.
In short the article states that in the best case scenario, if they found the vaccine today, it would not be available until around the end of 2021.
If you look at how fast this virus has spread so far, even with all of the quarantines that took place, in the next 18 months we will all have had the virus, it will become impossible to escape from it.
