Swithin Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 The Black Death in the 14th Century took much the same route as the Corona Virus appears to be taking. It began in China and traveled via ship to Genoa, Italy. The British explorer Francis Younghusband, one of the last "Great Gamers," had a great deal of criticism for Chinese hygienic practices. I was out in Flushing, Queens a few years ago, a thriving NYC Chinese neighborhood. I saw tiny cages in a market which included various species in the same cage: birds of several types, and one sad -looking rabbit. Link to post Share on other sites

Just like all the pics you post of cops beating someone up, invariably you have the pic with it being a person of color.

There's no hoax if you get sick and it's certainly no hoax for the people who have already died. There are just some things that you can't blame on Obama and the Democrats. trump has to man up and face the fact that he's the president and now he's responsible for the situation whether he likes it or not. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

ARE YOU KIDDING!!??!!?? That Effing Moron of a “leader”, that you think is your god, is scrambling in his response. He appoints political hacks who don’t believe in science, think they can pray this away, or that it will vanish by miracle!!!!! This “team” must go through Pence with any information. As this administration is known to lie constantly, and to suppress truth and information that they see as damaging to the supreme chief, American citizens will have no confidence in what information they do release. The lack of more widespread testing, and the lack of availability of test kits, can be seen as a way to keep the reported numbers of infected people down. Trump even lies about these numbers! Trump, the GOP, Fox News and others in the right have politicized this, repeating the narrative that it’s all a Democratic hoax to take Trump down. Trump’s incompetence, sourrounding himself with incompetent hacks, slashing budgets from the bureaus and programs that can assist this situation, gutting them of non-partisan professional subject matter experts, and replacing them with political appointees with no relevant knowledge or experience, but able to administer loyalists tests......I think the Orange Doofus is doing a great job laying the groundwork to Bring him and his administration down. No help needed there! Trump made fun of Chuck Schumer when Schumer proposed three times the amount for the woeful budget Trump has asked for. Trump demonstrates time and time again he cannot he trusted to work with the other side. You really are delusional about the madman in the WH. Link to post Share on other sites

MovieMadness Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Health Officials Confirm First US Death From Coronavirus in Washington State Officials in Washington state say a person has died from the coronavirus, marking the first death in the US. State officials issued a brief news release announcing the death and gave no details. Health officials have scheduled a press conference where more information will be released. This is a developing story. **************************************************** Why are the first cases of coronavirus coming out of states run by Democrats?

MovieMadness Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Why people are confusing coronavirus with Corona beer Does the deadly coronavirus have anything to do with Corona beer? Absolutely not. Unfortunately for the popular pale lager, fear and panic about the disease is reportedly having a negative impact on the brand's image. On Monday, Corona's official Twitter account shared a video teasing its newest product, Corona Hard Seltzer. Introducing Corona Hard Seltzer. Four delicious flavors. One splashy entrance. pic.twitter.com/XrPPr6nWrB — Corona USA (@coronaextrausa) February 24, 2020 The short clip begins with a splash of water before revealing four cans of the sugar-free, sparkling beverages sitting on a beach. Along with the video, the company wrote, "Introducing Corona Hard Seltzer. Four delicious flavors. One splashy entrance." But the tagline that appeared at the end of video — “Coming ashore soon." — immediately began rubbing people the wrong way. Responses to the ad varied from shock to disgust, with many noting that the timing of the announcement for a new Corona product seemed poor given that the virus is continuing to spread. ******************************************************************** Someone should make some Ebola beer for those that want a double dose.
