If your local Norvegian idiots will start riots and attack evacuees, don't forget to declare it Russian plot too.Quite plausible, yes.
Meh. The stock market is in a hyper-inflated bubble and has been so for years with all the quantitative easing, so letting some air out of that bubble could merely be something that would have happened at some point anyway.@Cheetah Stock market says differently about the possibility of economic trouble. Down 3.5% today. But that is just today. No telling what tomorrow will bring.
I'm holding cash too. We'll see on that though.Meh. The stock market is in a hyper-inflated bubble and has been so for years with all the quantitative easing, so letting some air out of that bubble could merely be something that would have happened at some point anyway.
But yes, if governments decide to shut down the economy, of course there will be problems.
I'll admit that I think both the CCP and other governments (e.g. Austria stopping trains to Italy) are overreacting. Maybe they have some information I am not privy to? In which case what do I know...
(If the market falls a bit more I'll buy in, though. I have quite a bit of savings ready to be reinvested again.)
This is not a war!
A resort in Tenerife, Spain, gone in quarantine with 1000 people inside due to one confirmed infected
and we can develop an effective vaccine for it.
Which is why slowing the spreading is now important
remove the infected one and wait two weeks... with every new case wait another two weeks.
cutting up that resort in separated areas will help.
and yes... tourism will get a massive hit this year.
Just heard in the radio an interview to a guy who is in the resort. He said that they have been asked to do not get out from their rooms, but there is people in the pools
There are 8,000,000 people in Osaka. 2 have been confirmed for the virus. Locally, I don’t think it’s a disconcerting number yet unless we start seeing an upswing in diagnosed cases.
Grab that angel you showed us earlier and slowly melt it for water in the coming weeks.Alright, seeing Milan shut down did it for me.
The possibility of having cities shut down all nonessential services seems very plausible for many of us, maybe even probable. At this point, I think it prudent to stock up a few weeks worth of basic supplies: rice, canned veggies, pet food / supplies (like cat litter), medications, cleaning supplies (disinfectant sprays for door knobs, hand sanitizer), and a bunch of other things I'm not thinking of that others might suggest.
I doubt it'll get so bad that people lose utilities, but some water and batteries might be a good idea too.

What's the odds of it reaching a small US town of 10,000 people 1,000+ miles from any coastline?
