So sad tbh and when Palestine will have their cases will accuse again Israel.

This will cause discussion(2 fronts ) but ‘IGNORANCE’ is much more dangerous than Corona Virus

Very sick to see such behaviour.

People are spending more time inside.

This could result in: Boredom, anxiety, lack of social contact, change in clothing that people wear (sweatpants > suits).

Preppers are loving this right now.

But even if you’re not in the prepping niche, you can add words like “prepare” or “stock up” in your ad copy.

(Again, “prepare” doesn’t need to refer to Corona Virus. If you sell bathing suits, use those same words that resonate with people right now and relate it to “prepare for summer” for example)

Health is top of mind right now. Do you sell a product that helps people stay healthy? (E.g. Fitness products - not fucking Corona cures for god’s sake.)

Does your product NOT contain certain chemicals that are harmful? Emphasize that in your marketing.

People are stressed. Can your product help them relax?

People are worried about their finances. Does your product save them money in the long run? (4-in-1 home repair tools, car detailing, etc.)

Lots of businesses are closed. Does your product help people cook, clean or fix things without needing those businesses that are now closed?

TINFOIL HAT ON:

Now here is an interesting conspiracy theory :thinking:

Impact of coronavirus on stock exchanges worldwide, within 1 month:

:us: -26%
:uk: -26%
:canada: -25%
:brazil: -27%
:ru: -20%
:united_arab_emirates: -19%
:south_africa: -16%
:australia: -24%
:india: -14%
:singapore: -17%
:hong_kong: -12%
:kr: - 17%

Now, look at this:

:cn: (China) + 0,3%

China the creator of the pandemic, has miraculously “recovered”, has almost no more cases of coronavirus.

The world is now beginning to feel the effects and panic about the disease.

Who recovered first ?? China itself

It seems to be that this virus was a move by the Chinese government in response to the loss of the trade war with the United States.

The goal:

To throw the world into recession !!!

Is the scenario not clear they are already growing!

China bought almost everything it devalued on the stock exchanges around the world … with that the Chinese became owners of the global companies that are in China and without the money even leaving China.

TINFOIL HAT OFF.

I kind of changed my opinion about all this lately

I researched the data in depth

I estimate that real covid19 cases in the world are very likely 10x the reported ones

You can tell it by looking at the exponential growth of new cases as countries scale up the testing, both growth with the same rate

The patient 0 is confirmed to be in China in NOVEMBER

with the amount of daily travel and flights our society has combined with the high contagious rate of the virus, it’s safe to say that there are few million of cases already in the world

Let’s pretend that deaths are more than reported as well, let’s 2x = 25.000 deaths

At 3.000.000 cases that would bring the mortality rate to <1%

In the 0-50 yo bracket would equal to 0.10%
In the 0-50 yo bracket with 0 underlying conditions to 0.05%

There are around 50 professional athletes positive to covid and they all are asymptomatic or have very mild symptoms

Lockdowns are the first response, we will know very soon if they work or not (Italy so far is not having great results even tho another week is needed)

Then we will have to see if countries that got out of the contagion like China will have a second wave or not

If these “tests” fail, I’m afraid we will have to let nature have its course and let the virus run

Infect maybe 30 or 50% of the population, get weaker, face immunity and disappear (viruses never disappear completely, it will stay and become a common “cold” virus)

From a cynical point of view, letting the virus run takes 2-3 months at most

Going in and out of lockdowns to flatten the curve will take maybe a year and at the moment results are not telling that it’s working (the “China” lockdown is not replicable in western countries)

Of all the weird conspiracies you see these days on the Internet, that’s the more credible

Even tho China pumped trillions of dollars into their stock market to keep it afloat

@Sonny - That is an interesting theory.
And I am over here all pissed off as I bought a townhome at inflated local prices as things were getting expensive in Poland, especially estate. If I only waited 2-3 months I could probably buy the same property for far less, as everything will most likely collapse here. (Yes, I am an evil person :D)

But on a serious note, they’ve just extended the closure of schools in Poland until April 15th, and since yesterday we’ve entered into an official country-wide epidemic. Non-essential businesses are still closed too. We’ve had police check up on us yesterday to see if my wife and I are sticking to our quarantine. Our government also released apps that track where you are and send you requests to “take a selfie” at random times so they can check if you’re sticking to your quarantine. Cops roam the streets with speakers on full blast playing messages that encourage citizens to stay at home, it’s getting a little dystopian over here.

So now you agree with me :slight_smile:
Here we have army+cops patrolling and a 5-13 time when we can go out.
Its getting crazy and this will ruin everything that is not in the food/pharma industry.
IMO the govs handled it terrible.

LMAOO. Because everyone is stuck at their home, our city’s municipality has got a few trucks out with a DJ driving around the city blasting music. Just was near my home. This is depressing

Agree also chinese billionaire lapdogs like jack ma are the tool for the government.

They are using the terrible situation for their political gain. Countries like india, Bhutan literally share borders with them but he particularly omitted it coz of the political tension between.

After all trump was right this is obviously

CHINESE VIRUS

I’m part owner of a news company todayville.com, ok if I write an article about this?

About my quarantine? This isn’t really a secret though, it’s all over the web and other countries are using the same tactics.
