Correcting a typo... you obviously meant to ask: Why of all developed countries the USA is the most capable to handle a crazy pandemic? Good question, although requires a certain amount of common sense to answer.

Exactly! Freezing your balls off is a well-known side effect of the global warming.

He probably figures that TDS will kill way more people than any coronavirus-related pneumonia, so why bother.

It looks like it doesn't take very much to bring a business in your field to its knees, does it? Maybe some people need to get a little smarter and plan a little better for different contingencies?

Sasha, c'est magnifique!:clap2:

Well, I think we should be able to cut them some slack. Everyone who has been to Heathrow knows it as a nice cozy welcoming place, so it seems perfectly sensible to make guests stay there a little longer. Otherwise they would obviously take the first chance to get the fuck out of there.

Does not make any sense, agree. First and foremost, for the reason discussed earlier: any data coming out of China is not worth the paper it is printed on.

You see, the ban on a runway in London is already working!

It seems that Israelis are talking of a much shorter trial period, three months or so.

Israelis sound positively upbeat about their vaccine progress. Israeli scientists: 'In a few weeks, we will have coronavirus vaccine'

Well, you certainly demonstrate a profound knowledge of how communist countries function.

If so (links maybe?), why is there any need to spread the product of Chinese agitprop?

And you can certainly take these "facts" to the bank, along with everything else decreed by the Chinese Communist Party Central Committee.

On the other hand, if Bernie gets in, he will guarantee that every U.S. citizen (and maybe some illegals too while supplies last) gets a free copy of coronavirus. I am certainly leaning towards voting for the guy on Tuesday.

There are now reports of patients getting reinfected with the virus after recovery. Scary stuff. https://thehill.com/changing-america/well-being/prevention-cures/484942-japan-confirms-first-case-of-person-reinfected

A huge victory for our planet: the third runway at Heathrow is blocked by the court of appeal. Global warming is finally reversed! We (maybe) will live another day. Heathrow third runway ruled illegal over climate change

Yes, I was operating under the old definition of pandemic ("A pandemic is the worldwide spread of a new disease.") Obviously the new one is "Italy infecting the rest of Europe" and " Iran has started infecting all its neighbours". Thank you for setting this straight. Thank you for your...

No, it's not. Despite the global reach of the disease, the WHO has so far declined to declare COVID-19 a pandemic. “For the moment, we are not witnessing the uncontained global spread of this virus, and we are not witnessing large-scale severe death or disease,” WHO Director-General Tedros...

Sharapova is finally retiring. She probably should have done that a few years earlier. Still a very distinguished career. https://www.vanityfair.com/style/2020/02/maria-sharapova-steps-away-from-the-game

Why won't you gentlemen start a thread about the quality of life in Canada (as compared to that in Venezuela, for example) if you feel like discussing it. An interesting topic, I would be glad to learn and perhaps participate.
