Guys check the food at your house to see where it comes from, if from an asian country (like rice etc.) stock some just incase.

My rice comes from California
Fun fact: Calrose rice (grown in CA) exports rice to both Japan and China. Go 49ers! *Chiefs fan today though. -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

Infected people are above 70,000 and climbing. Thankfully, it's been kept mostly in China so far. I'm thankful for that! In this video, the same building that saw the SARS virus spread through the pipes in the building was suspe cted of doing so again with corona. Thankfully it was a false alarm. in another case, they tried to quarantine people on a cruise ship and it just made things worse. 3,000 Medical Workers roughly infected which is very sad The really scary new bit of news is that there are Chinese News Sources saying that it's possible that the CORONA VIRUS was leaked from a biological weapons research facility in Wuhan. Research at this facility(The Wuhan Center for Disease Control) involves bats and it's possible a bat got loose and the rest is history. This sounds like a "Conspiracy Theory", but it's being reported by actual news outlets, not just crazy bloggers. Also, any one who says bad things about the way the govt is handling the crisis, are being "disapeared" they Just go missing. One professor in particulare is mentioned in this report. I hope this thing wraps up soon as I'm starting to see really strange videos on youtube about how this is a "Biblical Plague" (it's not, it's a regional virus and it's not going to kill 1/3 of humanity as foretold in the book of Revelations). Also, there has been a "Locust Plague" in Africa recently which also has the Conspiracy Theory people going nuts. A "Plague of Locusts" to go with out "Breaking of the 7th Seal" is just what every bible thumping conspiracy zealot needs to start asking for more donations. Uggh. Even legitimate outlets like DW in Germany are calling it a "Plague of Locusts". I wish they would stop using that word. You say "Conspiracy Theory" like it has to be some kind of outlandish and unbelievable thing. This term is frequently misused. A conspiracy is simply when 2 or more people get together and conspire to commit a crime of some sort, in most cases Criminal Conspiracy's, and they happen all the time. So a conspiracy theory is simply some people theorizing that there are other people that have conspired to commit a crime. Criminal conspiracy's are uncovered, tried and convicted quite frequently. Granted, some theories are bigger than others, involve powerful people, and may seem far fetched and some are of course, but even many of those that sound outlandish have turned out to be real. Many of yesterdays conspiracy theories, even outlandish ones, have ended up being today's news and part of history. A plague of locusts isn't a conspiracy theory but more like a doomsday prophecy theory unless you want to theorize that it was manufactured by a group of people somehow for nefarious reasons. A deadly virus, maybe. If again you want to theorize that it was purposefully released or maybe even developed for some nefarious reason. The idea that this virus may have got away from that lab in Wuhan isn't new although I don't think it has been called a weapons lab but a level 4 research facility for studying deadly viruses of which there are some all over the world. We have such research facilities here in the US too. Some news organizations were reporting about that idea from the outset of this crisis and mentioned that it had even been warned about by scientists and officials here in the US that something could escape that lab into the population, and about the dangers of the proximity of that lab the huge population center that is Wuhan province. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/...piracy%20theory |

Thanks for the clarification My only point being that things like this are often snagged and blown way out of proportion by a certain group of youtube folks and the results are not positive. Next thing you know, we have videos cropping up everywhere showing the corona virus and the locusts and following it with a few quotes from revelations saying that the end is near and you need to buy these special pills that will purify your water or taint wipes, etc. Any public tragedy seems to fuel this type of thing which is kinda sad imho
One thing that is very real is that the Chinese Economy is going to slow down and also, the largest company on earth, APPLE COMPUTER is going to slow down a bit as well since most of theyr products are built in China. Apple is already warning share holders that there will be a dip and that we may see fewer iphone available due to factories being closed from the virus. Also, there will be other knock on effects of Chine being basically shut down for this long. Prices are going to go up. The stock market is going to go down. All of which is yet more fuel for folks selling "PREPPER" kits and claiming it's all going down the drain. I really don't think it's all going down the drain. I think we are having a run of bad luck that will sort itself out if we can all just stay calm Here is that vid about APPLE saying they are not going to make enough iphones due to Corona. You say "Conspiracy Theory" like it has to be some kind of outlandish and unbelievable thing. This term is frequently misused.

Yeah, that's a theory going around but that's not the Donald's style. He likes to 'win' in the public view not in some covert, unproveable way.
Out here on the coast, covid-19 as it's called now barely makes the news and CA is probably the biggest recipient of cash and goods via China. We also have a HUGE Chinese population. Few incidents have been seen in Iran, Egypt...these are the places to be afraid of as they might not be able to contain the virus. Russia will shut boarders to China soon completely. As for conspiracy theory, my thought is USA did it. Been years since its known China will surpass US economy in the not so distant future, Trump did all he could with the tariffs and calling US based brands back to USA. Human life is most important, but the real damage Corona did was to Chinese economy. Their stock market closed for 2 weeks and they pumped 150billon just so it wouldn't crash the day it opened, now they're merging small airplane businesses with bigger ones so they won't face bankruptcy. Also huge internal credits are being arranged so common people who cannot work right now (like a drugstore owner etc.) so mass unemployment won't happen... -------------------- - Ken Lasaine
