Bummer - NRL May Be Canceled 2020

[Juju]

Laugh all you want... You don't realise how f**ked you are right now.

Govt is drip-feeding you softly.

Keep laughing but please stock up before you cant.

You tend to get a bit hysterical about issues don't you...

 

[Big Marn]

A bit off topic.
Catalyst goes round again today in $1million race in Melbourne.
Super race last time. bit like the old Bonecrusher, Waverley Star days.

Yeah... I wonder if he’s a journalist

His hysteria combined with absolute inaccuracy suggests so

 

[Eelectrica]

So Flagg or Abigail?

Bummer - The Lion may be cancelled. God.

Bummer - The Lion may be cancelled. God.

• 4 weeks ago this went pandemic.

• Containment was never a consideration and was never attempted by all nations.

• Mitigation was the only option on the table

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

Funny thing is... he's actually kind of right (this time). Just taking the conclusion waaaaaaaay too far.

WHO might not be calling it a pandemic yet, but it fits the criteria already.

For healthy adults (below 70 and no comorbidities - particularly respiratory or cardiovascular issues) it has a minuscule fatality rate. Still worse than the seasonal flu, but... yeah. Not a stunningly deadly disease - which is also why the thing keeps spreading, the lower fatality rate + longer incubation period = much harder to control.

Keeping a couple of weeks worth of non perishables and household necessities is probably a good idea... anything more is just being silly (and that's just for your own needs if you get sick and need to self-quarantine). Live your lives, wash your hands more and try to touch things less (including your face and other people's hands). NRL is not being cancelled. Olympics might, though - those are very different propositions.

 

[spear tackle]

While normally the cancellation of a NRL season would be a major concern, the way the Warriors are going it may save me some heartache.

Maybe its for the best.

[JJ]

yeah... nah...

 

[SpaceMonkey]

f**k off idiot. People stockpiling months worth of food (and bog roll, what’s up with that?) is already causing supermarket shortages. Stop feeding the hysteria.

ACT NOW! YOU STUPID f**kERS!!!

6 months of food minimum.

Almost out of time.

If not for yourself, for the ones you love.

News will not tell you what it is. Stats & numbers are not correct.

EXPLOSION/GAME OVER

Mate, head for the bunker its over.

Let the adults deal with a flu strain in a sane manner.

There has been more recorded cases of influneza this year than this magic COVID-19 strain.

12713 vs 33

Unless you are over 65 with other medical conditions you are highly unlikely to die from this.
You may still contract it like any other flu strain, but will get sick and most likely recover.

P.s don't forget to stock up on your alcohol based hand sanitizer.

Please think logically.

If this was just the flu that only killed old people with underlying conditions..then

• Why is the whole of China shut down?
• Why are the factories not up and running again?

The reality of the situation is the truth will soon become evident and idiots like SpaceMonkey will be in a state of shock or even worse...dead.

Stage 1: The truth is laughed at
Stage 2: The truth is violently opposed.
Stage 3: The truth is evident.

We are currently at stage 2 in New Zealand.

China is finished.

 

[Rich102]

Bye China

This. He also had a post (that has been edited away) claiming that the mortality rate is way higher (it's not - in reality it's likely lower than being reported, given the likelihood of mild cases not being reported in the moment... as happens with every significant disease outbreak) and, amusingly, that basic hygiene doesn't help slow the spread of a virus. That's the level of idiot we're dealing with - doesn't understand the basics of viral epidemiology.

RE the toilet roll... I guess people don't get enough fibre and need way too much of the stuff? I dunno... strange one. We (2 people) only get through a single roll in almost a week. Don't need much of the stuff...

Second case confirmed but not even serious enough to require hospitalisation, currently self-quarantined at home. But according to Lion we’re all f**ked

 

[Iron Lion]

OK, Remember what I wrote

 

[Diesel]

If anyone is looking for tin foils hats, Iron Lying has stockpiled them

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Sounds like you’ve already had it Lion, you’ve definitely suffered some sort of irreversible damage at some point.
