Auto-play MP3 file: 'I Am the Very Model of Effective Social Distancing'

[Sean Hayden]

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick: 'I'm all in' on risking my health to lift social distancing guidelines for economic boost

--fucking monsters.

I'd rather keep the neighborhood safe and if things get that bad weigh the risk of doing 5-99 for taking your shit.

It is the sacred duty of all Americans to kill all politicians who are endangering their community.

I'm surprised Galaxian hasn't swooped in to tell us that it's all a deep-state false-flag operation to depress the global economy in readiness for the arrival of the Ggarf hulk fleet from Alpha Centauri hiding in Saturn's shadow, or something.

No rest for the wicked! One goes off-planet for a couple of months and this is what Galaxian is met with upon returning...
Here's a good covid-19 statistics site. You can select for column priority (either ascending or descending). Apart from the overall data, click on a country to get more specific information:

Interesting site with interesting data but can we trust the data. Just how is it recorded and are all nations using the same method?

Can the red states in the USA be trusted as their beloved leader says it will be over in two weeks. How about the blue ones. Are they counting just about everything. Data is political.

[Galaxian]

Just stating some simple facts. You dont have to be Galaxian to do that. You cant see the convenience of such a world wide incident? We have only 6000 deaths globally so why all the fuss. It is not a deadly virus to young people in fact they only get minor symptoms. It just does not add up by any stretch.

Furthermore, its mode of death is pneumonia. Now, if you look up "pneomonia, the old man's friend", you'll see why doctors like it when old people come down with pneumonia, and many are reluctant to treat it.
Northern Italy has the highest population of geriatrics in Europe, and most of those dying are in their late 70's, 80's, & 90's. Well, good for them I say, they're lucky to go in such a pleasant way. They had served the useful portion of their life and had little else to live for.

No site is perfect. This is simply one of the better ones. One can cross check it against other sites.

Speaking of Galaxian, where is he?
I have 2 theories:

1. He has fled the coronavirus, staying with his alien friends on the far side of the moon.

2. He died.

No, I didn't flee the coronavirus. Just lost track of time while staying with my alien friends.
As for dying... I wish... one lives in hope.

Dying by drowning in your own mucus is a "pleasant" death??

[Brian Peacock]

Apparently so.

I notice he didn't deny the Ggarf hulk fleet were hiding in Saturn's shadow btw. Very telling.

"The great Canadian physician, Sir William Osler, considered by some as the Father of modern medicine, first called pneumonia "the old man's friend" (indeed it was eventually the cause of his own death). In his great textbook, "The Principles and Practice of Medicine", he wrote: "Pneumonia may well be called the friend of the aged. Taken off by it in an acute, not often painful illness, the old man escapes those 'cold gradations of decay' so distressing to himself and his friends.
"Pneumonia is called the old man's friend because, left untreated, the sufferer often lapses into a state of reduced consciousness, slipping away peacefully in his sleep, a fairly swift and dignified end to a period of what can otherwise often be considerable suffering, from illness and treatment. The more so when someone is sinking into senility, as dementia, part of the eventual fate of so many of us, diminishes them steadily, so that each day there is less and less of the much loved person there."

Oh right, so this virus is a gift to the old. Can't believe I didn't realise this.

It's a joke. They want to talk sacrifice to save the economy, but look at how they live! It's a fucking joke.

[Sean Hayden]

It's going to be bad, but we have to protect the futu...

[Svartalf]

[Tero]

Trump tower.
