I was under the impression the fatality rate is so highly 2-3% because the older deaths (80+) heavily skew it. Isn’t the death rate comparable to flu with people 50 and under?

"We don't know" would probably be the best answer.

Wuhan City had elevated death rates, and we don't yet know the data from everywhere else.

It SEEMS like the other age groups are around 0.2% which would be double the normal flu I think, but not 100% sure yet.


Sigh. I'll be at LAX in a week.

Tehran actually appears to be on the chilly side.


I think WARM summer will hopefully inhibit the virus, but we don't know for sure yet.

We do kinda know look at Singapore numbers those are high enough the past month was in the 80s and 90s F

I wonder if Florida is thinking low risk because folks still think warm mean virus kept at bay.

Singapore has also kept things under control better than a lot of other places. They have an A+ health care system though, so it's not a sure-fire bet it's just due to the temps.

Best guess right now is a "hope so" and it'll peter out in the northern hemisphere in a couple of months.
 
I hope this is true. The only thing favorable for people living in this shit hole of a country (Paraguay) will be if this turns out to be true.

90+ cases with no deaths hell yeah they get an A+ that is the place I would want to be if I caught this virus

Corona is really in a tough spot here.

I can think of ways for marketing to get out in front of this, but they'd all either strengthen the association between beer and disease or make light of something that's killing people.

The best thing I can come up with is, "Coronavirus doesn't have anything to do with Corona Beer, until now -- because for every Corona you buy, we'll donate $0.XX to organizations working to contain the virus."

Edit: I should point out HoegLaw HoegLaw thinks the report is a bit exaggerated. These might just be people who already hated Corona beer.

This just proves how weird humans are, I would not address it and hope to rebuild the brand later on. If you address something like this that makes no sensible sense you just make it more legitimate. They had nothing to do with this people are stupid to connect them to the virus.

Don't even try the donation thing it would ruin them, they are not Coca Cola big enough to pull mindfuck like that off anyway

Iceland has a confirmed infection but large countries like Turkey & the Ukraine have reported none.

Interesting.

3 new cases in Pakistan... in my city. There's panic and a mask shortage, so after trying for the last two days, I have given up trying to acquire one.

Anyone know any tips on how to make one at home?

Don't leave the house. I wouldn't think any homemade one will work better than just practicing good hygene. Don't touch your face. Wash your hands. Use hand sanitizer religiously.

Just be a little more careful. There are very many cases in families where even close relatives with permanent contact with a sick person have not been infected.

It begins...
Britain's 20th coronavirus case is first to contract infection on UK soil: Man treated at clinic in Surrey closed for 'deep cleaning' is moved to London hospital as a Briton on quarantined cruise ship dies

My company just tightened travel restrictions. No trips to China or South Korea whatsoever, no travel unless approved by the President to any of the CDC level two countries, no visitors from level 2 countries unless they are quarantined for 14 days first. If you must visit a level 2 country, you must self quarantine and work from home upon return.
 


Info update on when to expect new info.

I liked China getting 2x per day, but I guess since its MAGICALLYCURED we don't get that anymore.

3rd case in NorCal?

I saw a video of a Canadian man go to Venezuela. He bought all his friends beer and they were surprised, because a 12-pack would cost an entire month's salary. So they took advantage of this and asked the Canadian to keep buying them more beer. :messenger_grinning_smiling:
