First, once more, you cannot kill a virus. It does not live. The virus is here to stay, and it will infect all humans in the long run. You cannot hide away from it, but it makes sense to slow down the spreading so the hospitals can cope - flatten the curve.

If those idiots im Munich will be found dead, at least their arses will be clean :D

These worthless babblers in berlin seem to have eaten up all time advantages that we had, The infection rate grows faster in germany now than in Italy at the same timepoint in the cycle. I just read it, I am smoking and fuming.

AND STILL THEY DUCK AWAY FROM MAKING WHAT THEY FEAR ARE UNPOPULAR DECISONS. While already two day ago a poll said over 70% want them to order curfew.

Worthless junk they are. They have given all the advantages we had - in theory at least - away. For babbling, moralising, appealing, lecturing, appealing, playing around, and then babbling more, and babbling more, and more, and more babbling.

Cowards, sitting in a hole in the ground, hoping for something happenign that frees them from the need to decide. :arrgh!:

And these people are often using their economic advantage to elbow others aside: huge cars in which to hoard their booty and wads of cash enabling them to buy up extra freezers in which to store the stuff. Yes, I got this today from a friend's wife who works at a local white goods store... all the freezers have suddenly sold out!

These are the kind of people who would push women and kids out of the lifeboats and it makes me ashamed to think they're my own countrymen

Maybe they bought the extra freezers to store food for their women and kids.

Taking it away from others with their women and kids.
While it all would be no problem if they just would not hoard. Human stupidity.

Save Mankind, conserve toilet paper. Use just one square per movement:

Focus magazine:


Belgian scientists report they found antibodies to Corvid-19 - in Lamas.



If true, this could be a breakthrough.

Read in some Danish news paper what type of people who had died in Italy from Corona.

Mostly elders with some underlying disease and most of them was elder than 60-something and most of them was men.

Reading this I came to the conclusion that i belong to the medium high risk group.

Male
Middle of the 50's
Have high blood pressure
and
I smoke.

See, I don't understand that. How do you know? Is it automatically assumed that if some people buy appliances they are stopping other people from buying them?



Texas grocery store HEB says don't panic, enough for everybody.

Neal, hoarding puts a strain on the supply chain when it really doesn't need it. :o

Cough and cold OTC meds, I could see that. Lysol and bleach, I could see that as well but the logic does start to fall apart. TP? You gotta be kidding me?? :k_confused:

Freezers? I kinda get it if you're into "bunker mentality" but they also put a strain on the power grid and if the power grid goes down, the new freezer stops working and all those pizzas go bad. :doh:

I work at a supermarket, and tonight, after an entire week of coronavirus panic, I FINALLY managed to snag a four-pack of generic store brand toilet paper.

A whole WEEK!:k_confused:

So who decides how many of what each person is allowed to spend their own money on? Maybe the hoarders can be identified with little six pointed stars on their jackets. :hmmm:

Well, yes, I know what a hoarder is , he's someone who has more than he needs when I don't.

Freezers. They were going to be plugged into the power grid one day, I imagine.

Ok, nevermind.

The town square and the angry mob with the pitch forks. :O:
There are folks who assume that having "more" makes it better. This isn't a problem in normal circumstances. Doing the same thing when everyone else is making sacrifices is going to raise some hackles.

Plugging in a new one when your old one conks out isn't the issue. Plugging in twelve of them and taking down the power on your block, is. :03:
