Never heard of this theory.
The lockdown villages are quite far from those zones (northern Tuscany in particular), where a lot of Chinese workforce is utilised in the fashion (rather than textile) industry.
If that where true the virus would have spread from airports and or those zones.
So I am afraid I can dismiss that. 

Ok, if Coronavirus wasnt bullish enough, Trump just announced a new mutation called the Caronavirus.

Fortunately he is on top of everything.

"Low Ratings Fake News MSDNC (Comcast) &

 are doing everything possible to make the Caronavirus look as bad as possible, including panicking markets, if possible. Likewise their incompetent Do Nothing Democrat comrades are all talk, no action. USA in great shape!

Water is a serious bitch, the stuff is heavy and takes up a *lot* of space. That said, 5 gallon jugs are not too expensive and every house has both a nice 40-50 gallon water tank, a couple of gallons in the pipes in the event things are really weird. I've tried rain barrels, but they fall apart after a few years and collect mosquitoes and odd things. Maybe a cistern.

If it rains where you live park your truck so water collects in the bed. Instant water for toilet flushing.

(Edit: That aquapod thing is a pretty good idea. I'll keep that in mind)

did anyone watch that U.S. guy here who has forgotten to switch of some FB streaming features during a live interview?

Clean water would be my chief concern. Here's a good checklist in case you expect to be without power and/or clean water for a few weeks. It's a hurricane preparedness site but this is the stuff you'd need to think about...

I used this last time I was in a hurricane, worked great, there are several similar products on the market...

And of course, it's important that you know how to use all this stuff *before* you need to.

just the flu bro

Meantime I wonder what the odds are that Trump will order the SS fund to put trillions into the stock market to prop it up.

(Oh wait, there is no surplus, just a box of IOUs. )

Peter Schiff is like a family doctor who because he has "MD" by his name thinks he's qualified to speak about molecular biology. Don't understand why this guy, who can't even be arsed to learn the basics of keeping a bitcoin, keeps thinking he's some crypto savant.

We are all children of rape if we go far enough back. That's why over half of women have rape fantasies, that's why they hate and at times deliberately try to hurt weak men, that's why nobody is having kids anymore. And the only cure is for hundreds of millions of people to die. And hey, here comes Corona-chan to save the day.

German military called "Bundeswehr" (sounds like an old Nazi is speaking  ) segregates completely a base near to Cologne because of virus suspicion.

EDIT: "The couple, who are being treated at the Düsseldorf University Hospital, have participated in social life for two more weeks, 'where the virus was so far that people could get infected'". #TheyAreAmongUs

nope, that's been out there forever

if you actually read the thing he's got a point, not a currently popular point but...


I find that one of the complexities of women stems from our sordid evolutionary past.  Often women's survival has depended on coupling with the man least likely to die.  Often the man least likely to die was the one that just killed all the men she used to know.

Maybe, but maybe it is just because the textile industry in the north or Italy relies heavily on illegal Chinese workers. Rumours are one of these brought a gift from his/her trip home for CNY back to Italy.

This. You don't need to have *that* much to ride out a short term screwup, I just went out and picked up a few hundred worth of extra groceries. Mostly the extra was canned goods, pasta, staples, rice, potatoes, and the like. If things don't go bad in a month I can just eat the excess over time, if things go crazy for a few weeks I'll lose some weight and be fine as well.

The goal is to have enough that you don't need to panic without tying down all your coin in one place. In most modern disasters helicopters will be dropping bags of money within a week or so, thus the goal is to not make rash moves before then.

Also remember redundancy can be expensive: When the power goes out you don't need to have a generator big enough to run your house for a month. What you need is enough power for the fridge, a lamp (really nice when it gets dark), the fans for your wood stove (in winter), cell phone charging (surprisingly little), a weber grill, and a coffee machine (because waiting in line for coffee sucks). I've done this for a week, it's really not that big of a deal and having cold beer, a light at night, and coffee in the morning goes a long way towards feeling civilized and appropriately smug at those without.

So.... Keep things in perspective. Try not to be part of the mass migration herd, either be the first one out (tricky to time) or wait a week till things settle down.

well, we used to think nothing

but this is exactly what spectre/meltdown was about

you ready to bet your keys there isn't another undocumented vulnerability?

75 days till the Halvening and all is well. 

Bullish.

 I'm just going to eat McDonald's food if there's a crisis.  No bacteria or virus can live in that stuff anyway and the probability of dying from SARS-2 is likely higher than the probability of dying from eating only McDonald's food for a few weeks.  As an added bonus, there won't be a queue.
