Coronavirus 2019-2020 thread (no unsubstantiated rumours!)

Lack of nuance in your analysis.

Of course I am very much intellectually inferior to the great @taxiya I have to mention

Yes indeed. Besides that, now you are just trying to laugh/joke/mock out of an awkward conversation.

Alright I'll let the boomers win 礼让

Ray Dalio was right. The boomers don't have the patience of the Greatest Generation.

So mocking is your last resort? I don't understand Chinglish BTW.

About the link you posted, if the state employees are to stay put, why should others be exceptional?

Of course you don't know the truth because you read the lair SCMP. You are pissed off by a lie.

The Chinese report is that "couple of local governments called on government staff, employees of state institutes and SOE workers to avoid travelling during Chinese New Year." They are teachers, officials, office workers (white collar) and SOE workers (white and blue collar).

The government is asking its own employees to set an example for the rest of society.

And now it becomes "unfair treatment of poor blue collar workers" in your mind.

You have problems in gathering information, comprehension of information, critical cross examination and anger management.

Oops

I'm reading a lot of accommodations to encourage people to stay put for the New Year. Are you going BBC and twist that into "forcing people to stay put"?

Your original post talked about "blue collar workers who can't visit home for consecutive years", so again, I'm asking you, do you actually know any blue collar workers who haven't been allowed to go home for the New Year for two or more years in a row now?

Don't think you can get any answer from him. From my recent experience, he has been ignoring questions or inconvenient facts while twisting things for his own convenience in other subjects.

I'm so glad China managed the pandemic so damn well. Westerners were PRAYING for China to fall, gleefully excited as if CCP regime would collapse at the beginning of pandemic.

If China can successfully keep zero COVID, and get mRNA local indigenous tech, and keep a highly robust GDP growth, then it's game over for Anti-China pundits. They will enter the 6th stage of grief: "Acceptance" and start learning Chinese. or atleast better STFU.

I do not think having mRNA vaccine technology will help with controlling COVID-19. China's existing vaccine technology is already more than a match for it. Having mRNA technology might be useful for future niche technologies like cancer treatments but it is not a show stopper.

I think these 2 developments pretty much allow the (eventual) full opening of the Western economies. If Pfizer can dramatically ramp up production, make it cheap enough and allow over-the-counter access then the pandemic will be over

I can see the end of the tunnel with this covid pill developed. If you remember from my previous posts, I specifically mentioned that this pill is necessary for opening up and "beating" covid

Congratulations to Pfizer
