Well, they changed their methodology to be more aggressive in counting. So the numbers aren't comparable to prior #s

I get them being really harsh about this. They don’t have the infrastructure to deal with any sort of outbreak at all.

Not sure how valid that data is... Pretty sure I've heard of at least one infant dying.

CNN is there to tell you how the Coronavirus is spreading racism.

Man do they love a headline about racism.

Anyway, I would argue it isn't racism, it's just ignorance. My proof? One of you or a co-worker or a friend at poker, I forget where I heard it, was just in SF or NY and went to Chinatown. However, it was like a ghost town and many restaurants and stores were closed. Why? Because the Chinese population that lives exclusively in the U.S. thinks the Chinese population that travels to China might be infected.

Back to the MSM, do you think they're ever actually surprised that constant headlines and stories about one group doing something or spreading something causes people to accuse said group of just that? They have to be aware of their role in it, right?

Did the virus already make it too far? South Korea + Iran seeing more cases. What about Africa?

If it gets to Africa, I assume it'll wipe out half the continent. There are simply no facilities, medicine, or equipment to prevent it spreading or to treat those with it.

But the people who have it are getting 1st world medical care. That won't be the case in Africa.

No points from the Ohio judge. An anagram is not an argument.

Italy has more than 100 cases (up from 3 confirmed last week), 50,000 people under quarantine, and is now shutting down a bunch of stuff.

Zero points from Michigan as they're trivializing and politicizing thousands of deaths.

Are they? I mean, we still believe that virus came from animal markets, right?

You're like the NRA right now.
