...what goes around, comes around.

HK cop contracts virus, has all the symptoms (fever, coughing) and STILL decides to go to a police dinner function with over 60 people. (head honcho and Rupert Dover was there too).

People are laughing and also scalding at them because they were the ones that told rioters to not be in social gatherings.

nope different one. This new one was for a retirement party with officers only. High chance other officers will be spreading it because banquet dinner = at least 10 people sharing plates of food/spit with each other.

It's not, unfortunately. People have checked. Imagine the justice boner people would have if Jackie Chan got the virus LUL


People are popping champagne in front of police stations, in reference to a cop telling protesters they were celebrating a student protester death by popping champagne back in November.

South Korea is up to 150+ infected about half of them are from some cult

Iran has new cases as well as 2 deaths, they've only confirmed 5 cases, seems like the city of Qom is where it hit

It also means it's been spreading since at least January, if the woman has it here in BC.

Oh...and how dumb is the US government here?

The 14 coronavirus-stricken Americans evacuated from a cruise ship in Japan were flown back to the US on a plane full of healthy people against advice from the CDC, a report said Thursday.

DaJo 02-20-2020 11:54 PM

"Japan says 2 former cruise ship passengers died from virus, Japan now has three deaths linked to the COVID-19 illness."

The cult in Korea says 400 of its members are experiencing corona symptoms but have yet to be tested for the virus. Daegu, and Cheongdo cities are under quarantine now

Well since their leader is the second coming of Christ, he should be able to just heal them all, right? :considered:

telling media, mall is perfectly safe.

but wears mask....hahahaha


I was at metro town over the long weekends, packed as usual, nobody wearing mask

Hondaracer 02-21-2020 04:15 PM

The dumb leading the dumb.

spoon.ek9 02-21-2020 04:32 PM

wearing a mask during food prep isn't exactly unheard of.

Amuse 02-21-2020 11:36 PM


donk. 02-22-2020 12:00 AM

the paranoya around this virus is halarious

people whining others not wearing masks, then they eat in a restaurant with it off for half an hour

the only way you are going to stay safe is staying home until its cured, eating your 40kg bag of rice. Oh wait, you probably already shook hands with someone that has the virus 2 weeks ago, then picked out that booger

more likely to get killed in a car accident, from the seasonal flu, or that healthy big mac your wife doesnt know you get for lunch everyday.

Been to taiwan, china, thailand, vietnam, japan, signapore since december, no mask. Go live life people.

PS: vietnam is dump.

So Japan sent about 90 people onboard that cruise ship for testing, etc, but didn't test anyone after they got off the ship. Their reason is that "if they tested them and found too many tested positive, there would be no way to get all the work done" (really this is the most Japanese thing I have ever heard)

So now they have 90 people who were exposed to this INSANELY contagious virus, and haven't quarantined or tested them.

So far 4 of them that did get sick have tested positive

StylinRed 02-22-2020 06:13 AM

Italy Lebanon Israel Korea Iran all reporting more cases death in Italy too

Prisons in China have it somehow

The spread is beginning dun dun dunnnnn

Donk. I've traveled too but just because we didn't catch it doesn't mean we should be irresponsible and tell people to maintain high levels of transit, that's how these things spread. Even countries are telling ppl to keep travel down or not at all depending on the location, to snub Ur nose at it is just juvenile

Badhobz 02-22-2020 06:48 AM

So how did the guys in Iran get it !? I still don't understand that one. News isn't even reporting it.

So it's understood the incubation period may be 28 days now

Japan let people off the ship after 14 days that didnt test positive on day 10 after strong urging from health officials. And now some of them are testing positive after being back out in the public. After a significant number of people on the ship have been confirmed infected.

To reference a post above "how dumb is the Japanese government here"

The people that could disembark the ship since they were “quarantined”, were also able to leave via public transportation. Well, a Japanese woman has tested positive for the virus after disembarking....
