Let’s say it takes a while for the virus to pass,,, summer? And a great economic and humanitarian toll starts to be accounted for. What happens if enough people and treasure is lost due to the virus that world powers are forever altered?


Let’s say China looses it’s footing as a challenger to the throne.
North Korea ceases to command the survivors.
Or Europe implodes.
Or the US is no longer able to afford to be a super power?

The coronavirus is a real problem, particularly if hospital resources are exhausted, but what the OP posts is just over-the-top hysteria.

If we had infinite hospital resources, this coronavirus would be just like the flu. The problem is we don’t, and if cases shoot up too fast, and exhaust hospital resources, that’s when cases won’t be able to get adequate care, and the death rate would go up significantly.

That’s the problem with coronavirus in a nutshell. All of these efforts we see today are to “flatten” the cases vs time curve to prevent the exhaustion of hospital resources.

Once we flatten the curve well enough (no small feat, by the way), the economy will recover, and the coronavirus will turn into just another flu-like epidemic.

It'll be gone in a month, meaning subsided to just another panic attack like ones before

This is not a small problem. Life is going to be quite different over the next few weeks. If we can succeed now in flattening the curve, things will get back to “normal” faster. If we don’t succeed in flattening the curve, this will be a disaster, but not in the way described by the OP.

Well, the virus is here, and despite the administration’s terrible reaction to it, the people have done pretty well.

It just takes someone to do something stupid and this situation may get out of hand and domino.

Not fuck up. Remember that lives mean more than money. Put the nation first before party.

Stuff we do not see happening right now.

You do realize that the Globalists want the population down to 5 hundred million right ?

Read the AMA Charter, one paragraph is very telling.

So good luck throwing your money at curing cancer. Not gona happen.
