Not just an REM song anymore...
I have a bad feeling about the fast moving virus now
dominating daily news reports, my government in canada
says the risk is low but it's not and nčeds to be
treated as a serious threat to everyone. Our first
cases are being allowed to self isolate, and that's not
good enough. Isolation of every case must happen and
must not be based on trusting the infected individuals
to stay home and self isolate. A virus as dangerous as
this must be treated as an extremely dangerous threat
to everyone, kept from spreading and not allowed into
our midst. I'm amazed at the complacency shown by the
ptb in so many places, because once it starts it won't
stop. I'm scared for the future, and it's just starting
at this point. Forget climate change for now, we wont
have to worry if this gets bad, the planet will shrug
off this parasite and cleanse itself, and we as a
species will only be a bad dream that mother earth had
on a stormy night.

Subject: Depends on which sources you go by


If you go by the mainstream sources, they're
panicking, but the statistics described aren't even
as bad as the average flu.

If you look at the precautions being taken in China
and elsewhere, it seems to indicate something much
bigger.

If you go by the conspiracy theory sites and the
right wing propaganda sites, it's the end of the
world (Moderate-left though I am, I do acknowledge
that conspiracy theory sites do get it right
sometimes, and I'll be curious to see how things
play out).

That said, my gut feeling has been in the "It's a
lot worse than the statistics indicate" camp since
the news about it was first reported, and I've been
gradually stocking up accordingly. Think this
weekend is going to go toward stocking up just a bit
more on water, since I've enough food to last at
least a few months.

For me, anyway. Cat food however, is expensive and
that's going to be my Achilles heel if any extended
quarantine period for the general population
happens. Still have enough to last a few weeks
though.

Maybe. Whatever you do, don't take aspirin with a fever, unless its real high-- Spanish Flu 1918 overused aspirin and it didn't turn out well. If one does use aspirin to reduce fever- you take a chance of the flu going into pneumonia -the body needs the fever to combat the illness. My grandparents both survived that Flu. There were about 670,000 deaths in the USA.
