Captain "Trump" of the RMS Titanic:


There isn't any iceberg.

There was an iceberg but it's in a totally different ocean.

The iceberg is in this ocean but it will melt very soon.

There is an iceberg but we didn't hit the iceberg.

We hit the iceberg, but the damage will be repaired very shortly.

The iceberg is a Chinese iceberg.

We are taking on water but every passenger who wants a lifeboat can get a lifeboat, and they are beautiful lifeboats. Look, passengers need to ask nicely for the lifeboats if they want them.

We don't have any lifeboats, we're not lifeboat distributors.

Passengers should have planned for icebergs and brought their own lifeboats.

I really don't think we need that many lifeboats.

We have lifeboats and they're supposed to be our lifeboats, not the passengers' lifeboats.

The lifeboats were left on shore by the last captain of this ship.

Nobody could have foreseen the iceberg.

New Rule: Virus Shaming | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)


In his editorial New Rule, Bill argues that China should be held responsible for allowing the conditions that scientists have long warned could lead to a pandemic.

Indian Media of course, couple of days back

Seems like it is Indian citizens, not USCs. The embassy probably tracks Indian citizens in the U.S.

Article on the NYT on the disease in Jackson heights, Queens. It's an area with a lot of Indians.

The New York Taxi Workers Alliance said 28 drivers had died — the vast majority of them immigrants living in Queens

Dr. Dave Chokshi, chief population health officer for the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation, said rates of diabetes, high blood pressure and other chronic conditions in central Queens were considerably higher than the city average.

Excellent and sad story.

A conspiracy theory linking the spread of the coronavirus to 5G wireless technology has spurred more than 100 incidents this month,

Getting very close to vaccine. If we are lucky, maybe by Sept. And I heard Bill Gates is going to finance up to 6 candidates for manufacturing even before they are final to be ahead of time (5 may be thrown away).

The first documentary movie on CCP virus, Tracking Down the Origin of the Wuhan Coronavirus

Excellent documentary I am recommending it to everyone I know

Connection between 5G new tech Towers and Corona ?


LONDON — On April 2, a wireless tower was set ablaze in Birmingham. The next day, a fire was reported at 10 p.m. at a telecommunications box in Liverpool. An hour later, an emergency call came in about another cell tower in Liverpool that was going up in flames.


Across Britain, more than 30 acts of arson and vandalism have taken place against wireless towers and other telecom gear this month, according to police reports and a telecom trade group. In roughly 80 other incidents in the country, telecom technicians have been harassed on the job.


The attacks were fueled by the same cause, government officials said: an internet conspiracy theory that links the spread of the coronavirus to an ultrafast wireless technology known as 5G. Under the false idea, which has gained momentum in Facebook groups, WhatsApp messages and YouTube videos, radio waves sent by 5G technology are causing small changes to people’s bodies that make them succumb to the virus.


The incidents starkly demonstrate how coronavirus conspiracy theories have taken a dark turn by spilling out into the real world. In just a few weeks, the pandemic has given pre-existing fringe ideas online new urgency by playing on people’s fears.

Seems like this theory refuses to die.

A university in California has proven that this virus is not lab made.

https://abcnews.go.com/US/conspiracy...ry?id=69827832

https://www.sciencenews.org/article/...nalysis-nature

These days it takes lots of work to figure out if something is genuine journalism or just a well researched and well presented propaganda.

We will never know.



Tell ya,....Number of cases detected maybe much lower than we think...

Germany has the most aggressive testing hence lots of cases but few deaths.

In USA we may be only counting 1.6% of actual infections.

https://www.floridatoday.com/story/n...es/5120978002/


Possible, but just an estimate. And they're relying heavily on Wuhan data, which may not be reliable.

The death rate in Germany is ticking up, though. It was around 0.4% earlier, now over 2%. Still well below Italy, Belgium, France, Holland and UK, which are > 10 %.


Though,

it shouldn't be too difficult to get a better estimate.

My neighborhood has 1000 homes. Test one per home and with Abbot's 10 min test results, it should not take them more than 2days to estimate. I'm not a statistician, but I'm sure the folks who are modeling this epidemic would know better.

If Trump's claim of 1million plus testing till date is accurate, that should be enough data to get a better estimate.

Based on how quickly it is spreading in retirement homes, I think anyone who got infected in March and staying home for past 4 weeks has already infected others in their home.


However,

They don't have too many kits and cartridges for the 10 min test, and every lab and hospital wants one. There is still a major backlog of tests in many areas, and of swabs and trained personnel to take the swab. They can't really do it for random people right now, they have to focus on the at-risk in most states.

The NIH is working on a test of a sample, but it's still not random. And really, it's not so easy to get a random sample that is representative of the population you're trying to measure.


And,...........? Hey,

New reported case of Ebola in Africa.

The Ebola virus must be jealous. Despite all it's efforts, and it's much greater lethality, it couldn't create the kind of Havoc COVID 19 has done ! Be known that, The fact Ebola's fatality rate was so high helped in containing the spread since dead people don't spread. Having this nice balance with spread and fatality rate is what covid19 make more lethal.


What say, Folks?

A few sunny predictions in these gloomy days. Remeber you read them here first.

1. By June, India will be the first country to be freed from the clutches of this pandemic.

2. Our Lockdown, hot weather and our higher immunity levels will see us through.

3. We will be the largest exporters of medicines and the world will look to us for regular supplies of BCG vaccines, anti-malarial drugs Hydroxy Chloroquinine etc.

4. Manufacturing facilities will be set up in India, in preference to China, by corporations from all over the world.100 USA n 200 Japanese already leaving fm China India will become the hub for manufacture of every item from mobile phones to pharmaceuticals. The biggest and the best brands will realise that the Indian people are honest, hard-working, talented and reliable and were underrated so far.

5.Unemployment levels will go down.

6 .Our Vegetarian cuisine will be appreciated more and more.

7. People will queue up before Indian consulates all over the world and visas for visiting India will be issued after a 3 week gap after testing them. People will come here for tourism, wellness and the sunshine.

8. Our medical facilities will be appreciated for their easy availability, quickness and price efficiency.

9. Ayurveda and Naturopathy will also become very popular. Yoga and Pranayam teachers will be in great demand. Afterall, the best remedy for fibrosis is exercising the lungs.

10. The best Indian brains who have migrated abroad will also be happy to return to their healthy and prosperous home country. Their salaries also will be affordable due to the increased levels of production-Make in India will be a reality sooner.

11.The minorities will realise that they have always lived in the best country in the world and they had failed to guide their brethren in Kashmir in the past. Had the Indian minorities united and given a call to the Kashmiris that "Pakistan is just a hole in the wall and India is the only place to be" lot of tragedies would have been avoided. 12. Kashmiris will now reject Pakistan and open their hearts to India. Tourists will flock to J&K not only from India but from all over the world and discover that the prettiest sights in the world are not in Switzerland but in Pehalgam.

13. 2020 will be a turning point in the history of the world. From here it will be India all the way.

May sound too optimistic a scenario but we will see Sone ki Chidia-India soon in next 3 -5 years or so. 14.Hard times test the half full glass holders' attitude . ADVERSITY OR OPPORTUNITY! WE NEED TO COMPREHEND & EXPLOIT IT.👍👌👏👆🦚





No idea whether all these will come true but I am just hoping for all of them to be true and best happen to india ..

World be corona free ..we all be happy
