To me that doesn't seem any more extreme than what most European countries have been doing for several days now. With no discernible effect so far.:(

No I am ethnic Chinese living in Ireland for the last 20 years. I just don't think China during this crisis is any better than Mr. Trump performance, but no one seems to ask series questions about China's behaviour, yet Trump is getting so much attention.

As I said before, although the word "Chinese Virus" is not nice. It emphasis the origin of the virus, which China/CCP are trying to put their own narrative around the world, to shift blame from its own citizens and the world.

Do you think China is still recording sizeable numbers but not reporting?

You might have better insight than most of us.

I saw the video going around of the Wuhan wild animal market. If China has shut that sh!t down and makes sure nothing like it ever happens again then they shouldn't be blamed for this. But, if they don't ...

If you missed it listen to this Doctor on why we should stay indoors and treat each other like pariahs. Remember she is going to have to deal with the sick and dying.

If most of the cases are in Dublin then it needs locking down like Wuhan. No one should be leaving Dublin, closed the roads and at least contain the epicentre in Ireland.

The same drama queens and their sources of the Tuesday morning lock down have disappeared like a fart in the wind.

It's like the people in Grenfell tower. They were advised to remain in their apartments. Despite the fact the building was clearly on fire. Do you think that following the guidelines was the right call in that situation?

HSE never got anything wrong.
Cervical screening. / blood transfusion scandal etc

This applies to you too:

You seriously think eating snakes, bats and other wild animals is cheaper than chicken / pork?

China lies, its the nature of their state, 2003 article below , they lied during SARS. The globe needs to decouple after this

https://www.irishtimes.com/news/china-s-sars-crisis-rooted-in-climate-of-state-dishonesty-1.356828

Meng and Zhang hid the real numbers about SARS patients because the party believed it would stay in power by hitting high economic growth targets and nothing must interfere with that. They were unlucky to get caught and that was only because there happened to be one honest doctor, Jiang Yanyong of the People's Liberation Army Hospital 301, who dared to speak out.

It is more than likely that this will only encourage other regional leaders in cities like Shanghai to do better in lying and cheating. That is how things have always worked out in the past; think of the 1958-1962 Great Leap Forward famine where officials thought showing loyalty by falsifying harvest figures was more important than saving lives.

If true (and I'm not convinced) then it is China's fault.

One thing people living off bush meat in the wild, so to speak, but a market like that in the city. No way. Anyone with a strong enough stomach should take a look at it. It's the most grotesque thing I've seen in a while.

Even without this pandemic, I think they are a good idea and wish more shops would have them . Nothing Worse then a teller coughing or spluttering in your face while serving you , or vice versa .

freshpopcorn · 20-03-2020 04:15PM

I work in a shop.
Since last weekend people are certainly queueing better. I can view a few premises from where I am.
People aren't really dozing about. It's brisk.
Theres a few teenagers about but these are the ones who normally who'd be troublesome.
More people are wearing gloves the odd one is wearing mask but they seem very sloppy with them.( I know them and they wouldn't be the sharpest).
Most still paying with cash but they simply don't have a card.

Gael23 · 20-03-2020 04:16PM

I know it’s fir a reason but I do find it a bit intimidating when you go into a shop and all the staff are wearing surgical masks

freshpopcorn · 20-03-2020 04:17PM

One thing
Can a mother or father bring her kids out for a walk in a town once they stay away from people?

Also can an elderly person go out for a walk?

Some say yes and some say no.

Are you being serious. So your assertion is that people need to eat assorted wildlife that is difficult to obtain? When they could eat farmed food which would be a far more efficient way of mass feeding people.

They have these markets because people go there for the unusual foodstuffs that they like eating ffs not because they are starving.

I don't want to be accused of spreading CT in this thread, as I don't have any official proofs. However you have to judge China on what they do rather than what they say.

For example, do you believe China would lock down the whole country for near 2 months for around 80K cases and 3K deaths? For a country of 1.4 billion people?

Why Russia and North Korea were first to close their borders with China? They are supposedly main allies of China?

Why China accused US closing their border to Chinese in January, but not Russia or NK?

In term of no. of deaths. I *think* Chinese death certificates only list single cause of death (e.g. if I got coronavirus with underlying conditions such as cancer, it may only appear to die from cancer, as the main cause of death). And in early days I think a lot of deaths are reported as "die from pneumonia". I think it is similar to Germany.

I don't think there will be a national census in China soon if the death rate are massively under reported (to hind the stat).

Anyway Chinese are very good at Maths, and statistics are not hard to be manipulated, especially in countries lacking transparencies.

FDA allows healthcare personnel to use industrial respirators during COVID-19 outbreak

Respiratory protective devices are designed to achieve a very close facial fit and very efficient filtration of airborne particles, allowing them to filter more airborne particles than face masks, the FDA said in its statement. The FDA concluded that respirators approved by NIOSH, but not currently meeting the FDA’s requirements, may be effective in preventing healthcare personnel from airborne exposure to COVID-19.
