They're shocked at the fact it was over a month before any of them showed signs, bcuz everyone's been operating on the idea of 14 days for ppl to show symptoms

The article mentions them being in quarantine too but it wasn't clear if that was before they went to sea or now that they're back

Edit: oh actually in the bullet points it says they were on a two week quarantine before they set to sea

It really is, especially when you consider it's in California... who are generally regarded as the most hippy minded, (depending on your perspective) "progressive" state in the entire country.

Those guys wouldn't even be alive if they tried that in half the other states...........

Much of Orange County, including Huntington Beach, is very red actually

Though it's been trending the other way, and certainly people will come to their senses and it goes all the way this November... right? :heckno:

This reminds me of the people in high school that would come to the parties they weren’t invited to and cause issues, then complain about how they weren’t invited to the party next week.

sonick 07-18-2020 08:36 AM

Ohhhh I'd love the irony if an American vacationing in Canada were yelled at to be told to 'go back where you came from!'

westopher 07-18-2020 09:21 AM

Lol like that American woman in Canada told the two Canadian girls to “go back where they came from” when they were picking blackberries.
They were like “we’re Canadian, where are you from?”
“Montana”

I stand by what I said earlier about a ‘soft opening’ of the border that HEHE was so desperate to do

How did USA become most powerful country when not only idiots are running the country, people are dumb af?

WD-40 07-19-2020 12:35 AM

It was built on the talent of immigrants from other countries like Canada. Brain drain. Regular run of the mill Americans are poorly educated and have no idea what goes on outside their own backyard or neighbourhood. They rely on what they see on television. American news is so skewed. America is so great and it's what they are told from day one. Self centred stubborn and arrogant.

If this pandemic is somehow created by the Chinese government they are brilliant. How do you destroy the greatest power on the planet? Let the citizens kill themselves. Stupid people led by a stupid leader. They will shoot themselves in the foot, then the other foot, until they start shooting themselves and each other in the head. America the great.

SkinnyPupp 07-19-2020 01:05 AM

New record over 100 cases in HK today. Stricter measures will be taken, starting with civil servants going WFH. The idea is that private companies will follow suit (LOL yeah right)

The 1 week ban on gyms, etc, will be extended an extra week

Masks are mandatory in all indoor public spaces. Before today, it was on public transportation only. Everyone (except drunk expats) wore a mask anyway

They are setting up testing centers everywhere, so high risk people can get tested any time. 400K free tests to start, focusing on taxi drivers, restaurant staff, elderly care home workers, etc

It's crazy that this outbreak came out of nowhere, as everyone (except drunk expats) was wearing masks all the time. Though things definitely got more crowded and people got more comfortable, they were still wearing masks. I still wore my mask all the time going out.

This strain is said to be way more contagious than the earlier one.

the backup wasn't wearing a mask either

Masks causes cancer? When did Vancouver become part of the US?

The media should NOT give these guys any airtime or publicity. By doing so, they are enabling them even more. These people will eventually fade into the background if nobody gives them the attention they so desperately need.

Btw, I would love to see a study on mask causing cancer.

This is what happens when you give stupid people a voice - FB groups and shit are great for people to talk about and share information on succulents and car seats and DIY repairs, but when they allow misinformation based on nothing but sheer idiocy, there's an issue.

You can 'not believe in science' all you want, but do so from your own fucking trailer. It's completely up to Walmart or Home Depot or business or literally anything where you come into contact with other people to refuse you service, it's NOT infringing on your rights.

Having a sane opinion is one thing but if you're going to disclaim any sort of 'scientific evidence' as government propaganda and part of a Soros/Gates-funded masterplan to brainwash the masses because you watching a 45 minute youtube video made by some shill, then seriously just shut the fuck up and leave fucking society. Fuck.

/rant.

GLOW 07-20-2020 09:16 AM

no shirts no shoes no service has been widely accepted, why can't they add on no mask as well? i don't get why that's so hard to comprehend :lol

there's always door dash and uber eats and online delivery for everything else

That's why social media itself has been both a blessing and cancer on society. The amount of raw unfiltered information that goes out for the most part is generally pretty good. Look to places of protests and you'll see the "real" footage of what's happening and not what's being filtered by the news and media.

On the flip side, it allows fucking crackhead morons to all congregate online to spread their bullshit misinformation and find a place where they can talk up all their crazy shit to each other to build up a sense of self worth. "YEAH MAN, MASKS CAUSE CANCER! LET'S MARCH TO THAT. FUCK THE GOVERNMENT! FUCK 5G FUCK MASKS"

Sometimes I feel like my eyes are going to roll out of the back of my head because how often I roll my eyes at reading media reporting on these bullshit wackjobs. The media itself is also to blame because they're providing a platform for these fuckers to spread their bullshit misinformation propoganda.

westopher 07-20-2020 10:04 AM

The best was watching it on global. Keith baldrey just straight up called them idiots and mocked them on the news. I believe in unbiased reporting, until it gets this stupid. These people deserve to be ridiculed online, on the news and anywhere else. They don’t deserve a platform.

Isn't there a group of people in the states who believed the earth is flat???

Well knowing that, I'm really not surprised that it is out of control in the US now

They also exist in Canada. They had a convention in Calgary last year.
