    Babylon Bee is great.

    It gets more and more difficult to tell the difference between satire and a simple statement of what idiots now think.

    Luckily it can be contained, since we all know China is such a low-density area for population.

    Get ready for heightened security and even longer waits at hospitals. And lots of paper masks.

    we need to find the cure for hypochondria. The hospitals main problem of being clogged up by people who abuse the healthcare system because they came out with the all-in-your-head cold. They showed in a report at Victoria Hospital that one person used the emergency room 44 tones in a month. One person went 17 time’s in a single week once.

    they should start rating hospital patients the same way they rate Uber passengers. Knock these tax moochers down the triage Poole and see if they’ll finally get out of the way for people with far worse problems than them.

    The 3 cases I speak of are legit serious, and my info comes from a nurse that is working the case. So while a bunch of people might go in with a cough thinking they've got the plague, these 3 cases definitely are not that.

    I believe you. I was generally griping about how idiots siphon valuable resources.. and can get themselves legitimately sick in the process.

    believe me... If it’s so much as a warning I want them to take it as seriously as and intricately as humanly possible. You’ll get no quarrel from me. This is THE shit not to be fucked with. The smallest enemies are the scariest of all.

    WOW....I actually taught English in Wuhan back in 06-07...
    This is a big deal. the Chinese New-Year is the largest movement of people in the world. These people don't do a M-F, they work their asses off until they get to go home.nt
    Also, not for nothing; "illegal seafood market" doesn't crack the top 10 of places I went when I was there... Just saying....

    With all the people that come and go from China for Corning Inc., ( not far from where I live ) I figure it’s only a matter of time for the corona virus to show up around here.

    There’s a bunch of theories that it’s not a random virus, but a bio weapon China is testing on its own people to gauge the spread and how the US responds with pandemic procedures.

    Top post on Hacker News in a thread on it:

    Kinda makes you think that there might be something there.

    May not have been intentional testing, but could have definitely had something to do with the facility.

    Bio-weapons are scary shit, man-made or otherwise.

    I think Bio-weapons are the scariest thing there is. If SkyNet actually took over that’s what it would use on us, not an army of cool-looking robots. It would drop a virus in a few places and we’d be doomed.

    Canadian officials are now reporting that the toronto man was syptomatic on the airplane as he was returning to Canada. So now they're trying to get into contact with everyone who was on that plane. And then everyone who was in contact with those people. And then...
