we know the repository damage COVID does to the people who get it, and now we're seeing the affects it has on peoples brains. so this idea that you get it, and you just "get over it" is absurd.

Topic name should be Chinese Wuhan Virus.
Its better to know where it came from. Will be easier to teach our kids the source.
@Edge has the right of it.
America is not capable of dealing with a pandemic. Not institutionally, not economically, not culturally. Decades upon decades of small government, crony capitalism, and greed-is-good individualism have crippled its ability to respond to a crisis effectively.
I was really hesitant about the falling empire comparisons but god damn is the US making it hard.

that's exactly what's happening. the last gasps of an empire ruled by a fool who has no idea or desire to let it fall gently.

The country who lit the fire and poured gasoline on it is China. US didn't arrest the doctors who tried to warn the world.
I know the whole story. CCP are the liars and cowards.

Name of Virus is Chinese Wuhan Virus originally.
China bribing WHO to change the name doesn't change what it originally is. WHO has told many lines and now noone gives a fuck about what they do or say. They are puppets
The WHO has issued formal recommendations against geographical designations for infectious diseases since 2015 and it has been considered best practice since the late 1990s regardless...
Anyway given that Wuhan is no longer the world's epicenter we should start calling this Florida Flu.

It was just shut down by government mandate, seemingly arbitrarily and without any kind of debate or discourse. Simply government mandate. We mourn loved ones who pass away, and we mourn financial ruin. Suffering is a spectrum.

Pretty much any infectious disease specialist worth their salt, honestly. Geographic designations have long been opposed precisely because they confound epidemiological efforts by setting a timeline in stone regardless of evidence to the contrary - see Spanish Flu.
But hey fuck the experts y'all know best because you read it on Facebook, right?
