Any one get the wats ap message going around 27 different videos from the streets of China,
No idea if there real but if they are this is a lot lot worse than people are letting on ,
Its like something from a end of days movie, people in haz suits with guns on the streets , people in chains being lead to van's by people in full haz suits , Bodies on the floor in airports and trains stations just being walked past, The spraying the streets in a huge mist ,

Sounds legit. Share it with us.

Its like pulling out the old car deaths versus anything else. People get used to static risks and accept that life isn’t risk free. People rightly don’t like additional risks especially if there are steps that can be implemented to eliminate them. To eliminate the risks from regular flu would make life intolerable.

Not really. Costs €20 per year to get a safe and reasonably effective vaccine in your pharmacy but most people aren't arsed or have some stupid excuse.

Wtf. No i don't think they would do that. There's over 10 million people there and a sizable amount of foreigners including EU people there too.

I don't think Steve means that they will drop nukes on it, but if necessary the Chinese will keep Wuhan a closed city indefinitely. In fact the leadership won't give it a second thought.

Well, this isn't great.

Japanese officials confirming a tour guide has been re-infected.

Hopefully the original clearance was just faulty somehow.

To be fair anything filmed in Asian Cities you'll see people with face masks , So easy to pretend the corona related and recent ,
So the videos could be in any city over the last 20 years lets be fair human rights aren't steller in these place's

Those videos have been doing the rounds for weeks now. Funny how the purported time they were filmed keeps changing. They are old and most likely fake for a lot of them. Do people really just unquestionably believe everything they see online?

A lot of them do.
I find especially FB users. They will believe any old nonsense.

UK Chief medical officer says that in event of pandemic UK schools could be closed for more than 2 months. He says that if it's containable the UK will be able to contain it, but if it becomes a pandemic then there will be no escape (my words).

You mean like the images of purported missile parts on the ground in Iran after that Ukrainian 737 'crashed' and the video a day later showing what looked like two missiles hitting a plane at night?

I believed those when I saw them. How'd that work out?

Tbh if they are accurate I'd imagine they are from early on in lock down before they knew what was going on.

I would not be surprised though, they do not **** about in China.

The HSE has bought 1.7 million masks in preparation for the spread of Covid-19.

It has also distributed additional protective equipment for staff to hospitals and GP offices.

Be careful, you may just be accused of saying something complimentary about our public service.

Actually the videos that came out were ahead of the story and people called them fake almost as reflexively as the chinese government at every stage of the outbreak. There are some bull**** ones and there are idiots who try to interpret and extrapolate baselessly, but most of the imagery itself has been borne out to be true and predictive.

You're just getting loads of people really come online to this now so will be saying a lot of guff so I get that part

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Closing the horse after the stable has bolted

They want to do a bit more than 'urging' people at this point.
