The General Covid19 Thread

LT42 I honestly envy that lifestyle. The whores here are price gouging like you wouldn’t believe.

The Chinese have smaller tiddies than the Turks, so that’s a negative, but on the plus side they’re often still massively doable up to the age of 40 (one child policy and rice/vegetables diet IMO).

bosstrabs Turks are massively doable in the main right up to 50 I’d argue. Some of the Milfs roaming these waters are off the chain.

bosstrabs 40 year-old Chinese hookers? You really are excellent at selling the place Dave.

bosstrabs Depends how you measure it. Everyone got back to work quicker than the endless half-arsed lockdowns in the West, and the death count is way, way lower than most countries.

Repeat draconian lockdowns for everyone so a few old people might live a few months more is not much of a success.

Lower obesity rates in China will also likely mean the death count would be way lower than the west anyway.

Even though I’ve recently have had Covid I’m still going to get a 4th jab.

Why?

Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.

Why?

I might die becasue i have zero minerals.

Except for those people in full-arsed lockdowns now, eh? Whilst the rest of the world seems to be on the way out of the pandemic, Chinese policy will keep the country exposed to lockdowns and will undoubtedly lead to more variants of the disease. Perhaps that’s the plan.

I’d also call bullshit on the official deathcount given the lies and coverups they’ve been peddling from the outset

bosstrabs

Old-Dutch will undoubtedly lead to more variants of the disease

Also, I have to pick up on this. Isn’t the general consensus among virologists that letting it run wild leads to more variants?

bosstrabs

Fair enough, kind of pointless arguing about this with people who don’t have lived experience here to be honest.

Old-Dutch

YOU DON’T KNOW, YOU WEREN’T THERE, MAN

bosstrabs

It’s just kind of entry-level China analysis Dutchy, I don’t blame you.

It’s like my analysis and knowledge of Ukraine.

Smallman1

You just head home Dave.

It’s masks off, tops off and wrecking ball prog central everywhere you go.

bosstrabs

Smallman1 wrecking ball prog central everywhere you go

And OLB in the house?

Plane booked!

Smallman1

OLB confirmed!

I think it’s pretty much inevitable that the longer a disease remains in circulation, the more variants you’ll see develop.

The approach for most of the world has been to develop vaccines that work, deploy them and then get a herd immunity. China has done pretty much the opposite. Attempting to obtain a COVID free society without a decent vaccination programme with a population density the size of China is beyond ridiculous and will lead to perpetual large-scale lockdowns. Unless China is going to completely shut down it’s borders the strategy is completely flawed

Old-Dutch I think it’s pretty much inevitable that the longer a disease remains in circulation, the more variants you’ll see develop.

And it’s also generally the case, which seems to have been shown with Omicron, that the variants become less dangerous as they develop.

Smallman1

Best of luck Dave!

Tell that to someone with the bad AIDS

Certainly seems to be the case over here rn. Everyone has it and no one, at least that I know, is seriously ill. My boss’s 93 year old mother had it and barely even noticed. Thought it was her allergies.

rhouses

Pretty much the same out here. Most of my friends are treating it like the common cold, if anything - “This is the same as the yanks taking a flu shot every year.”

Was thinking of me ole mucka Dave when I read this -
