Never said we were not the same species burger. Mentioned China not people. Dont be a git again.
I used the term plague because China fits the term, as does India. And various other places in our world where humans have overbalanced all else by a country mile.
Rationalise it how you will, just imagine the whole world if every country was china! You cant can you but it aint pretty.
China doesnt respect its people, it doesnt respect its neighbours, nor does it respect the planet. China is for China. Covid-19 is a result of China burger not the human species.
With the wealth China has, a strong health care system doesnt seem too out of reach unless of course they prioritise China first.
Bag China not other countries responses.
Damned if they do damned if they dont, its all i hear from some folk with anything that goes wrong these days, just never balanced with the rest of life when things go right.
It seems the government agrees. On Friday WHO urged a global commitment to "pull out all the stops" to halt the disease. Encouraging 90K to fill the MCG tonight ain't it.
A Victorian and Australian tragedy is going to play out over the next few weeks and it will be partly the fault of our so-called leaders. Maybe they're out to save on pension payments. It's no wonder so few can conceive of their little world being turned on its head.
Case count excluding China/Diamond Princess (updated 11:30pm)
26094 cases
549 deaths (2.10%)
744 severe (3%)
21,457 mild (82%)
3,344 recovered (13%)
Half the world's nations infected. The other half probably oblivious.
Italy +1247 cases/+36 deaths. No chequered flag in sight.

I don't think you know what you're saying.
Are you blaming China for existing, or for having lots of people? Are you saying they should have killed off some of their population earlier? Are you saying too many Chinese people is a problem, but the rest of us are fine?
Also, are you saying that having too many people is bad, or having too many Chinese people is bad? Are you upset about quantity or concentration? What is your perfect amount of Chinese people?
And if you're trying to suggest that the Chinese people feel less social responsibility than the rest of us, then you truly are ignorant to the point of pointless. The measures they have taken to try to curb this spread simply wouldn't happen in Western Countries.
You're also doubling up on the ignorance by saying that Covid-19 is a result of the Chinese, not humans. I can't even fathom what you mean by that. Does that make the flu the fault of the Europeans? Aids the fault of Americans? Ebola the fault of Africans? Did old people cause cancer?
No jumping at all antman, just a little self righteous singin n dancin.
As for the cat gettin out of the bag, I doubt it was ever in there in the first place. Bit hard to isolate 8 billion people from everyone else.
You didn't read the correction to my post where I acknowledged he behaved unprofessionally?
Containment even if ultimately ineffective is important as it means that health systems are not totslly overwhelmed from early on in the pandemic.
The worrying thing is that some people see these clips and think “yeah, I’m gonna vote for this bloke”
I had to evacuate to Eden on New year's eve (day), along with a lot of others. There was a punch on at the petrol station and then they had to close the supermarket because of panic buying. All the way home I had to here people on the radio talking about how adversity brings out the 'best of the Australian spirit'. The reality is we are a very selfish society these days.
Yeah @larabee , at the risk of being labelled a TDS sufferer.......
Sometimes when I hear and see the "Very Stable Genius" in action, I do wonder, what hope do we really have?
Always wondered whether multiculturalism was leaving us vulnerable in the event of a war. Would there still be enough able-bodied men prepared to put the country’s welfare above their own? We’re about to find out a bit about ourselves.
Undoubtedly. Millions of multicultural sleeper agents fighting it out over bog roll mean we are ill-prepared for the Japs and Huns
