    I love that you thought of that scene too lol.

    Bit like the end of MIB where the zoom out turns the Earth and planets into marbles that some fck off huge alien is playing with. The message in that is easily missed.

    What didn't you like about Matrix btw?

    It was my all time number one film. Just some of the cheese stuff like neo dying and then she kisses him and he comes back alive. Still might be my number one

    This **** is so overblown. Compared to the population of China, the amount of cases is miniscule. And they haven't had a single confirmed case outside of Huabei province.

    12 million people are crammed into London and we have had 39 cases. Oh which none have been fatal.

    It's a bunch of nihilists who WANT it to kill a few billion people that fanning the flames. Munson for example.

    What pisses me off is the fact this is headlining on news on every channel every day for the last few weeks. Just give it a rest ffs <doh> Even the news websites have the whole page with about 10 stories dedicated to it.

    There have been loads of confirmed cases outside Hubei. To stop it China have brought the country to a standstill. Who can say whether it will flare up again once everyone is back at work.

    Outside China confirmed cases are doubling every 2-5 days. This virus will spread and many yet will get infected. It kills 1-2% and it's massively skewed towards killing the elderly. The diamond princess gives us an insight into the effects on old people, 700 infected, 10 dead so far.

    Countries like USA just won't know what's hit them, 6 dead in one state that supposedly has only a few dozen cases tells you hundreds are infected and spreading it.

    As long as the spread is slowed/ contained then healthcare systems will cope and it won't be serious. For us it's early days.

    People who are voluntarily getting checked in the US are being hit with $3k+ bills. Might put off quite a few sick people from getting checked.

    Not disregarding your statement but im not sure you thought the numbers through on this part.


    Obviously its more deadly to older people and ones with weaker immune systems but the 10 dead in 700 infected is around 2.5% (dont have a calculator on me). Thats hardly a massive increase considering you would expect it to be far more deadly in that demographic

    Most of those infected haven't fully recovered so we know the numbers will probably rise.

    10 in 700 is around 1.5% and sets a minimum.

    You probably still do have it Bobby - its not like a driving licence where you get it suspended for 12months for quoting incorrect percentage calculations. If that was the case Comm would have permanently lost his English Language CSE some years ago.

    Trump has suggested using a "solid flu vaccine" to treat the Coronavirus.

    Why have none of the so called medical experts thought of this? Better still, get the solid flu vaccine and marinade it in Dettol for a week. That will work even better.
