Terrified that coronavirus is getting worse than better

Post Reply New Topic

We may have less to fear of the virus itself than of the stupidity of the people who are supposed to protect us from it.

Recently, a cleaning crew was told that a passenger on an international flight was found to have the SARS-CoViD-19 virus ... and they were told after they had cleaned the plane! They had no protective gear, no protective training, and no advanced warning.

(I'm still trying to get the details.)

On one hand I have medical insurance

The insurance however doesn't pay for much



On the other hand I only have three friends.

One moved to Texas two weeks ago and hardly ever answers the email

The other one, I only see after class

She doesn't always go to class. Sometimes she hangs out with her sister after but she can talk to her sister at any time s**t

The other friend once in a while answers the email



Got made redundant a lot of times. Zero job skills. Might never trick anyone into hiring my worthless corpse ever again and when I do they fire me

Ass holes

Asperger's, clinical depression, diagnosed

Gender Identity disorder

Some applicants with cancer and multiple schlerosis denied from government benefits

Paranoid government benefits will deny my worthless corpse too

And the law about government benefits changes constantly so even if granted government benefits, could get denied later

Government benefits is not much $$

Eczema flare ups


37 years old

Graceful degradation

Zero hope left

Maybe dropping dead would be a financial strategy s**t




s**t I am physically weak, mentally slower, academically stupid, vocational incompetent, fragile, emotionally wounded, socially awkward


Survival of the fittest

I had a rubbish year in 2019. Thought I'd go travelling this year. Booked flights.

Worried I won't get to go coz of this stupid virus.

First world problems eh?

At least I'm not in an at risk group. I understand the caution so we don't all pass it on to people it could badly effect

I'm worried as well. I wash my hands 10 times a day. Stores around the world are facing shortages of toilet paper, soap, hand sanitizer and water.

only ten times? casual...


the coronavirus is doing more for the US than any president, more sick days/days off work and school, lowering gas prices, lowered plane prices, less traffic because of that

go COVID-19! coronavirus for president!!

I found this interesting:

"While the impact of flu varies, it places a substantial burden on the health of people in the United States each year.

CDC estimates that influenza has resulted in between 9 million – 45 million illnesses, between 140,000 – 810,000 hospitalizations and between 12,000 – 61,000 deaths annually since 2010."

https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/index.html

It looks like they are just talking about flu cases in the United States.

I wonder what the global stats are. Must be petty astronomical if it is that bad in just the US.

And the CDC and WHO are always having to beg people to get a flu shot and use precautions

Joined the dance... Poland closed all schools for the next 2 weeks.
I'm afraid such outbreaks are kind of inevitable in the global world - viruses have huge population to live and mutate.
Respiratory system diseases are catchy - see common cold. We can control food (salmonella) and drinking water (cholera) but air is more tricky.
I wonder how it shapes the future world.
