I can't remember the exact timeline. I was at work and saw that Wuhan was quaratined. I yelled to my co workers WHOA, how is it possible to quarantine

a city? Can you even imagine that happening in Europe or the US?

I've been doing this shit for 18 years.

My co workers snorted and agreed.

Same guys who are now heading up COVID task force.

Here we are.

Do we know if the Wuhan lockdown was similar to or more strict than ours? -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 19:34 20
- How could it not be more strict than here? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Mar 22, 19:40 1
  - People were literally locked into buildings. -- nm - loosilu Mar 22, 19:48
- More strict, in that they’ve at least been taking everyone’s temperature everywhere they go, and isolating if you’re feverish. -- nm - mafic Mar 22, 19:36 2
  - isolating = literally locking people up and separating families. -- nm - loosilu Mar 22, 19:36 1
    - there are videos of people being snatched crying, screaming, bound and thrown into a van -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 22, 19:43
- It was extremely strict, people were literally locked into buildings. Ours is pathetically lax. Everything about our response is extremely poor. - loosilu Mar 22, 19:35 14
  - I don't know, we don't have mayors yelling at people, do we? -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 19:36 13
    - Maybe they should be? -- nm - znufrii Mar 22, 19:40 2
      - they didn't start yelling at people until they realized they had no place to pile the bodies -- nm* - zeitgeist Mar 22, 19:41 1
        
        The italian army is hauling bodies in caravans. - loosilu Mar 22, 19:50
    - and we are doing much, much, much worse than Italy. We have much fewer hospital beds and respirators per capita than they do. - loosilu Mar 22, 19:38 9
      - You are just a ray of sunshine! -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 19:46 8
        
        I love you guys so much. I want you to get it so you can be safe. -- nm - loosilu Mar 22, 19:49 7
        
        You've been fantastic. -- (edited) - znufrii Mar 22, 19:51 1
        
        very happy to know it helps. -- nm - loosilu Mar 22, 19:53
        
        I'm just joking with you. I know you're giving us direct facts :) -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 19:51 3
        
        I want all of you to be safe. It's fucking bad. -- nm - loosilu Mar 22, 19:52
        
        Honestly, it's the slow burn of it now that is driving me bonkers. - ty97 Mar 22, 19:52 1
        
        This is a very slow roll 9/11, and also much worse. That's what is so maddening. - loosilu Mar 22, 19:55
        
        Get it as in understand it, not catch it. Got it. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 22, 19:50
