If you think a healthy 40 year old is at risk, it’s you not paying attention.

I believe Italy has a large population of elderly, especially in the poorest regions, this is inflating the death rate.
Experts in Australia agree, we need to lower the anxiety of the general community about this virus. The death rate is extremely low among the young, healthy population. It wouldn’t bother 85% of us even if we contracted it, the vulnerability remains as it always has with respiratory disease.
Don’t buy pallets of toilet paper.
Do practice good personal hygiene.
I cannot begin to fathom the power media has over the general population, I reckon a few fake headlines could have people stabbing each other in the streets.

Samson and Delilah...A Hollywood movie written in Bible times
by RULES & REGULATIONS inwritten and produced by bible writers...you can't make this up!.
who needs hollywood scriptwriters when you already have a bible story that has drama, suspense, and unbelievable twists and turns?
imagine the story of a man who visits prostitutes, kills a 1,000 man army with a skull bone, kills a lion with his bare hands, loses his strength by getting a haircut, gets his eyes gouged out, works at a grain mill and tears down columns with his bare hands, killing himself and the philistines!

And once again it’s a curiously round number, a perfect 1000.
He didn’t slay 943 or 1014 people, it was 1000. The bible writers loved exaggerating with numbers, always so precise and a round figure it’s obviously bullshit

Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread
by Simon inthis topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.
latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.
the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

Exactly smiddy, if we got news of every senior citizen that dies from the common flu strains and pneumonia or bronchitis infections it would put things in perspective.
Elderly and the already unhealthy are always at risk of developing bad lung infections from colds and flus, this isn’t any different and not particularly deadly either.
We will get something extremely deadly pop up sooner or later, can’t see it being this one though

What you want to do is have them get past the biggest risk period, to when vaccines maybe developed or enough people have built up immunity that the spread is much slower and contraction less likely
Yes and hopefully a drug or vaccine isn’t far off.
I heard a University in Australia identified the protein that the virus uses to invade cells, spike protein or something I don’t remember details but they do believe it could be controlled via a drug.
More funding is needed for real science in Australia, science to fund and find cures for things like this, not funding departments who create female wage gap and climate change graphs through dodgy statistics.
We don’t even have a national centre for disease control in Australia, the federal government has left it for individual state control. That is so stupid beyond belief, this lack of preparation our so called government has could be the difference between maybe 10-50k deaths to something like 250 000 dead Australians.

The death rate for the corona virus is around 2%, somewhere between 1-2%. It obviously depends on many factors, but say 2%.
Its first pass around the globe will take 18 months and infect 40-70% of the earth’s population, this is now inevitable according to some scientists..(epidemiologist?)
If 50% are infected and 2% die, it looks like you’ll almost certainly know of somebody who dies from it over the next 18months.
Could it be you?
If you are infected and over 80 years old, your chances of death are more like 14-15%
If you are over 70, it’s closer to 5%.
Anyone born after 1980 has about 0.2% of death, and children are not affected by the virus.
Any underlying health conditions will make things worse, but If you’re a fit and healthy 30 to 50 year old your chances of dying are extremely slim.
When the plague swept through London in the 1340’s it wiped out half the population.
This isn’t the plague and this panic buying of toilet paper is stupid and irrational, the hint is in the name “panic buying”.
The best protection is good clean living, unfortunately not well practiced these days. All these fat people filling shopping trolleys with detergent and toilet paper, the only thing they should panic about is their physical condition.
Eat lots of veggies and exercise often, lift weights and do proper vigorous workouts. This is a proven health stimulant and easily the best known to mankind.
If it is worst case and turns out to be the apocalypse, I’ll gladly give 200 rolls of toilet paper and 12 bottles of hand sanitizer for some electrical insulation tape or something useful

Greta Thunberg, Worse than Plague

No way you are having full energy capacity from your home solar panels in WNY. I heat with electric because we have cheap energy (nuclear and hydropower) and we consume about 5000kWh/month ($200-300)
That seems high, the average household in Australia uses around 40-50kw daily, you are 3x that.
I have 30 panels generating about 50kw daily with nearly 30kw of battery storage. Panels and battery tech improving fast nowadays.

If you're "anointed" don't seek out other "anointed" so says the Watchtower January 2020
by RolRod inwhen i was affiliated with the witnesses, there were barely 6,000 who profess to be of the anointed remnant.
i recently read somewhere that today there are over 20,000 who profess to be anointed.
that figure may be more when you consider those who meet and partake privately for fear of the stigma of claiming to be anointed.

@ dubstepped
I can’t remember the site name exactly, this is going back some years. Quick search though finds a few sites that are basically what the WTS is playing wack-a-mole with.

They have to mention this because some of the more deluded anointed have done exactly that, sort out other anointed ones like they’re special and try to stir some shit, they even had a website.
