Spacestar TheThundersuncat Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 Rumor has it all of Vienna will be under lockdown according to my cousin who has that info from a contact. Wonderful. 58 known infected (pretty low). Might be fake news. Hopefully. They couldn't do that so soon... Tirol (other major city) has much, much, more cases, though. Recently, 24 people were infected by a barkeeper. Some of these have boarded planes. This is so under control out there 1

Aether Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 currently just entered spring break. We have taken home ALL of our books and we're unsure if we're gonna go back to school after it ends so like. all of our teachers are like "this is plan B etc. etc." Also one math teacher (Not mine but the other half of the class.) said "we're all gonna get it, it's just a matter of time." okay, but what degree do you have that makes this correct? You're also like 60 so. You'd probably die if you had it. So is my favorite teacher so... like... plz no. 2 1 1
georgie Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 wait your schools are seriously shutting down? there are 4 cases in our town,up to 10k in the uk, 10 deaths, a girl at school who might have it (she's had a dry cough and fever all week, she luckily just managed to get tested tonight before boris announced there would be no more testing. if she has it, we'll be told tomorrow morning and have to self isolate) and we've been told that loads of our grandparents are gonna die, that schools definitely aren't closing yet, and that we should wash our hands 3
georgie Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 like... is it in your town? or just in your state?

GreenPolly Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 Everyone: *Freaking out about corona that might be near them.* Me, in a place near Boston and has gone to Boston multiple times: U guys good? (its a joke btw, don't take this personally)

Antivaxxer logic. I suppose it'll work until we have a vaccine. Also wouldn't that just give the virus time to work up it's immunity to other things? I'm not a doctor/scientist so I am totally not verified on this, but can't it get stronger by just letting it be? Sure yeah, we have to let it be when someone has the flu (Except when they could have complications.), but at least we tell them to stay home and not spread it around and live your life like normal just sit at home for a few weeks. 1

I live in New York, have a brain condition that is already causing about half of my life to be taken away, I'm sick with a still unknown disease, my blood pressure keeps lowering, I get the flu almost every winter, and I'm already on a bunch of medicines. I wasn't worried because before this thread I ignored everything involving the virus, but.... 2

It can get stronger or weaker without anyone being able to predict the future. That's why these things are closely watched. While no virus benefits from killing its host (in theory), it's certainly infective enough to not bother with being nice. There's already a much more deadly version in italy, while south korea has the milder variant. 2

Those ones you get at the doctors office or similar. Needs to be FFP3 and no lower grade. People are mass buying the wrong masks with a too low FFP2. No Idea what the English name is, though. I doubt my mom knows it since her English isn't great. 1
