Never mind the response of many countries around the world, local galaxy-brain organ Morgan has told us there's nothing to worry about. Healthcare systems in several countries have been stretched beyond capacity, with terrible effects, and if you look at the trajectory of cases in a whole raft of other countries that could be about to be repeated in several other countries including our own. But no, "iTs lEsS dEadLy tHan nORmAl fLu"Originally Posted by Organ Morgan.
I honestly thought the same as you 2 months ago when my meetings in China were cancelled. You need to look past the current fatality numbers and concentrate on death rate over a certain age, non direct deaths and contamination rate.
It's very dangerous and while people don't need to panic buy bog roll we do need to proceed with caution.
I've engaged my noodle. The company I work for has spent millions for us to work from home for the forseable future, my mrs' company have had to do the same despite being a tiny start up. These aren't the reactions to something that isn't dangerous.
You cannot be real here?
Why does everything always have to be a conspiracy? Can't you ever accept that something bad is happening that isn't in anyone's control? Are you that afraid?
The smugness in this despite being so wrong is absolutely mad.
I work for a Chinese company, I've seen how this is affecting people first hand, I don't get my news from tv. You are sat in a bedroom in south wales saying the same untruth every uneducated person is saying and being smug about it thinking it makes you look smart.
Are the 3 main cities in China still in lockdown? Obv Wuhan will be but what about the others?
Notto my knowledge, Biejing isn't at least.
It was only ever hubei province in complete lockdown, which has a population of about 55 million
You've got some neck rattling on about smugness and being a nut. Gaze into a mirror. You're the fella who claimed recently that Islam is a race. Your reasoning was beyond retarded.

Sayeeda Warsi:
I’m astonished that, after decades of research and policies that improved our understanding on race, anyone still believes racism is only about the shade of one’s skin. It is not. Antisemitism is a form of racism – directed at Jews who come in many shades, black, brown and white. Racism is a demonisation and negative stereotyping of a group or perceived group, irrespective of the colour of their face.
The same is true for Muslims or those perceived to be Muslim. It’s why the All-Party Parliamentary Group on British Muslims, after wide consultation and evidence gathering, defined Islamophobia in 2018 as a “form of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness”.

Omar Khan:
Racism isn’t much understood in Britain in 2020. Exhibit A is Trevor Phillips suggesting that because “Muslims are not a race”, there is no such thing as anti-Muslim racism.
Phillips has been suspended from the Labour party for alleged Islamophobia, but his line of thinking is common. Many have tried over the decades to explain why it isn’t right, and not just when it comes to Islamophobia. Of course Muslims are not a “race”, but they have been racialised. This means people who are Muslim are treated by particular societies as having essential characteristics that mark them as wholly different.
The question is whether there is a set of attitudes and behaviours – racism – that is socially widespread and used to justify discrimination against a particular group. If we look at the history of racism itself, we see that it didn’t emerge through scientific investigations or empirically rigorous endeavours, but instead to provide a justification for the economic, political and social domination and exclusion of particular groups. This is why it makes sense to call antisemitism and Islamophobia forms of racism.
Close things down for a couple of weeks. Done and dusted.
It’s inevitable anyway.
The weather can have similar effects . If you live in Spain or Italy, a lot of places pretty much close down completely for summer.
As for the economic effects, I think most of us would prefer to still have our parents and grandparents round than have a forever buoyant stock market.
It’s ****in ludicrous.
That's how a lot of people will be thinking.
The country is going its own path on this and time will tell if it was correct.
I saw some care homes have decided to ban all visitors, I get why but I wonder what health effects such isolation has on people also.
Amazing that the WRU is still going ahead with the rugby tomorrow. 150,000 people in Cardiff using transport either going to the match or in the pubs. Absolute lunacy and no regard for the public what so ever.
Scary item on Radio 4's Today programme this morning. Something I hadn't considered about regarding the situation in the USA. Apparently there are approx 27 million folk in the USA who have no medical insurance. When they become ill they do not go to the doctor because being poor to start with, they cannot afford to do so. Likewise they cannot afford not to go to work, so will carry on even if they feel ill. On top of that there are an unknown number of illegal immigrants who won't go to a doctor/hospital for fear of being found out and deported. Wow, a potential time bomb if ever there was one. Who can Trump blame for this - presumably the illegal immigrants would be very handy scapegoats!
There's a coronavirus thread on the politics forum. Most people probably haven't seen it.
In it, organ has about half a dozen theories of what's really going on, each one quickly dropped as they're overtaken by facts. My favourite was that it only kills East Asian people due to their biological defects.
But he's proud of being an independent thinker, and it's good entertainment at a depressing time, so I'm all for it. Carry on as you are, organ.
Jesus seriously? He's not worth engaging in that case.
Yes, seriously.

"The coronavirus, apparently, attacks what's called ACE-2 lung receptors. They are most prevalent in east Asian males and especially Chinese males. It explains why - once again - nil non Asians have died as Caucasians, etc, have far fewer so can easily survive infection."
No a nodding donkey just believe everything he reads on the internet
Double post
Oh my God I've just read that, Organ Morgan REALLY tones it down on the main board doesn't he
One of my favourites of his from that thread:
My hypothesis is it's a mild form of flu released by the ChiComs that's not life threatening to anyone other than east Asians and is less of a risk to east Asians themselves than the flu umpteen thousands die of every year when bronchitis or pneumonia set in. Put another way, it's tons of hype with very little substance to those who choose to look beyond the hype, which you and others appear incapable of. If you care to view footage from China their citizens' body temperature is checked whenever they take to the streets by people using a handheld device.
It's widely accepted that during Chairman Mao's tenure their utterly ruthless Communist Party deliberately killed around 60 million Chinese citizens, mostly by starvation. And China is far more overpopulated today than then.
Yeah, he and a few others really go to town on that forum. I've asked organ why he doesn't do it on the main board (it might be in that thread actually) and he says it's out of respect for mike Morris to only talk football on this oneOh my God I've just read that, Organ Morgan REALLY tones it down on the main board doesn't he
Have been reading this thread and could feel myself getting stupider from it.
It is crazy how the conspiracy theorist of the board are so sure of themselves being right and everyone else being stupid. It's always the same on every messageboard too. I never know if it's a way of people who's never achieved anything to make themselves feel better or a way of people who are afraid of anything outside of a governments control to rationalize things to make themselves feel better but it's pretty sad either way.
The way they talk about themselves you would think Life on Mars, Organ Morgan and Wales Bales were the world's last great thinkers rather than being 3 lads who spend all day on their PCs copying things they've read from other messagebaords.
What gets me is they think they are experts on every subject. Why can people never accept they don't know everything and won't always be right.
There's a chance this doesn't get any worse but all numbers predicted by experts so far appear to be coming true.
The main problem is humans struggle to understand exponential growth. Just because cases are low and deaths are low now doesn't mean that's how it'll stay.
That's not fair.
They reference youtube videos made by guys from THEIR bedrooms as well
He's a nut who thinks he's a genius, seems quite common on this board. No amount of genuine eveidence will ever convince people like that of anything other than their warped weird views. It's not even worth discussing anything with them.
He is a proper nut, made his mind up in the early days of corona virus by the look of it and now is too stubborn to change his mind.
