    Damn this is one nasty virus...………..

    Of the millions, perhaps billions, of coronaviruses, six were previously known to infect humans.

    SARS-CoV-2, the bad seed of the coronavirus family, is the seventh. It has managed to combine the infectiousness of its cold-causing cousins with some of the lethality of SARS and MERS. It can spread before people show symptoms of disease, making it difficult to control, especially without widespread and accurate testing. At the moment, social distancing is the only effective countermeasure.

    "The authorities in Nigeria's oil-rich southern Rivers state have demolished two hotels over an alleged breach of lockdown rules intended to contain the spread of coronavirus.

    State Governor Nyesom Wike, who supervised the tearing down of Edemete Hotel and Prodest Home on Sunday, said the operators had flouted an order that hotels should be closed.

    He said that people who had tested positive for the virus had been found in hotels across the state. But he did not say if anyone who had Covid-19 had been staying in either of the demolished hotels.

    'We refused to pay bribe'
    The managers of both businesses have been arrested, but the owner of Prodest Home has denied that his hotel was open.

    "The hotel was not operating and 70% of the staff had been sent away," Gogorobari Promise Needam told the BBC.

    There were only three people on ground.

    "[Officials] came in and were asking for bribe, they said they would let us operate if we gave them money but we said we were not operational so had no money to give," he said.

    The Rivers state government denies the accusation"

    This story seems out of place since the coronavirus is striking down jews and gentiles alike.

    NEW YORK — A husband and wife driving through Brooklyn hopped out of their car to attack a group of Hasidic Jews, trying to rip off the victims’ masks and blaming them for the spread of coronavirus, police said Monday.

    “You Jews are getting us all sick,” the couple yelled at a trio of men, according to police sources. “The mayor says you Jews are the reason we’re getting sick.”

    The couple allegedly assaulted three men, with the wife trying to rip their masks off,

    Does anybody actually take that guy seriously? All I ever seen of him are memes and on a big bang theory episode. Like to me it seems like he has aot of talk and talks a lot and says things, but I'm not sure if he follows through?

    And now he doesn't own a house anymore. :tearsofjoy:

    Haha. Yeah he is weird. I think it's eyes tbh. He's like some big Nord but with tiny Asian eyes lol. I thought he was a total Homo in the big bang theory before I realised who it was meant to be.

    So like he has some sattelites in the sky right I can see a few times them trailing one a other. I got curious once when I was mystified by 8 objects following the same line at the same distance. I quickly researched and found a website with sattelite movements. The UFOs I saw were his Satellite.

    So what do they do? Or what does he actually do? To me he comes across as a political figure who's just making enormous money. But I don't know who he is he could be trying to save the world for all I know...

    Can't be that smart anyway, that kids gonna get its head flushed down toilets as many times as their name equates to and 24x more.

    So other than dirty NY, everywhere else is pretty solid.

    See it doesn't surprise me if people are dying from known illness and sickness and it's just being passed off as covid 19 when it's probably something people are dying of all the time anyway. I mean does someone die and get found 5 hrs later and they test for corona virus? Or is it more like.. Well they had the symptoms so it must be coronavirus?

    I'm thinking the latter in most instances. Fake reporting. Fake headlines.

    Well it looks like the earliest possible time i may be able to open shop is July 4th.
    Boris was soooo tired at the press briefing last night, I think.

    He outright said "until we have created a virus.." meaning vaccine... he corrected himself on that one. But the other slip was referring to "July 4th AT THE LATEST" when he clearly meant at the earliest. He looked kind of exhausted.
