11 corona cases confirmed in San Antonio

[southall]

38% of people won't buy corona beer, due to the coronavirus. What a bizzare world we live in.

The brand name has become tarnished. And beers are all about branding as one beer is easily fungible with some other similar one.

Upon further reading, these Texas cases are part of the original Princess Cruise ship & Wuhan outbreak. In other words, these are not new infections.

Southwest, your angus is safe for now

The US is trying to protect Mexico. Is that the purpose of Trump's Wall?

Mods, please delete this thread, I fell for clickbait and it's unnecessary fear mongering on the news section. Alternatively, please retitle to "Infected repatriated Americans quarantined in San Antonio"

Plus they are the most susceptible to the virus.

ok - is this not a net PLUS for the economy? in a cold-hearted view? lol

boomers are now just burdens to the society no? them no longer producing nothing... yeah they still have retirement funds to spend, but that is not productivity.... whatever they don't spend their children will.

the millennials are hitting the spending peak... much bigger economy to come!

Yeah, its a Novel virus, which means it's harder to deal with for those on the front line, even if its kills many fewer people than regular flu in the end.

Every years doctors and nurses get immunised against flu so they can treat flu sufferers, but there is no vaccine for this and its 10x deadlier than flu.

So if you were a doctor or nurse would you want to treat 100 suspected patients a week?
Probably not, at least not without a Hazmat suit on.

And if you ran a funeral home would you want to touch the bodies. No way, so off they go straight to the incinerator.

And even if there is only 1% chance of your dying from it you probably still don't want to risk catching it as the health services are going to get so over streched at some point they are not going to be of much help to you.

Governments continue to downplay the virus... they don't want people to get panicky. Unfortunately we're very likely to panic unless there are major favorable developments.

That remark does not speak well to the character of the American people.

That remark does not speak well to the character of the American people.

This is a typical reaction of human. American are human too. Since this is trading forum. Please let me ask why do some traders just keep making the same mistake again and again? It's human psychology. Then why do some people just keep eating meat from wild animals again and again knowing that it may cause disease. It's good to watch this documentary but if you don't have time, just skip to the 48th minute and listen to Prof. Peter Curson said.
