H1N1 (2009/2010)
US cases ~ 60.8 million
US deaths : 22,469
Panic level : chilled
Then:
Corona (2020)
US cases ~ a few thousand
US deaths : a few hundred
Panic level : mass hysteria & economic collapse
Why the change of attitude ??
Picture a graph where your x axis is lethality and y axis is rate of transmission, then break it into quadrants. Upper left is chickenpox, low lethality but super rapid spread. Lower right is ebola. Low transmission but high lethality. The upper right quadrant is the worst one to be in and that’s where you’d find measles, polio and smallpox. Lower left is the best case scenario then.
That’s where H1N1 can be found.
This coronavirus is still unknown but best research puts it somewhere on that diagonal line that goes through lower left to upper right. Problem is, they don’t know exactly where yet. They currently have it somewhere between smallpox/measles/polio and h1n1. Like right in the middle. Moderate spread, moderate lethality. Considerably worse than h1n1 in both regards.
So consider h1n1 to be kinda like a practice exam they failed because they were too chill about it. And maybe this virus will be yet another practice test for an even nastier one.
Personally I’m glad they’re taking some guidance from prior epidemics. I mean h1n1 killed that many people?! Sheeesh
Let's say, for the sake of argument, that somebody was in the woods over the weekend doing something they shouldn't have been doing.....
Where would poison oak fit into that little graph of yours ??

It doesn’t make sense to you that 60 million / got sick ended up dying because everyone was so “chilled” ...
Now people want to be more prepared and take precaution? So that millions don’t have to die???
Sheesh,
Okay, for the sake of clarity, why was the media so chill during the time that 60 million people died ?
Were those lives, in 2009, of less value than the ones today ?4 -
I saw an article that said as of yesterday 73000 people have been known to recover, while 5800 have died...
By these numbers, that's a survival rate of 92%, so if 60.8m were infected... We could be looking at as many as 4.86m deaths...
Granted the unknown is how many people have already had it and recovered without even knowing they had it...
But let's take just 10% of that number... It's still 486,000 deaths... 21.5x the death rate of h1n13 -

I was talking to my mom about this this past weekend. Specifically i was saying “remember how worked up they were about the h1n1 virus? That was all the news talked about for months” and she said she didn’t remember the media talking about it really at all. Interesting that we have a different memory of it. Curious how others remember it..2 -

Maybe I was busy doing other things.... but I can't remember much conversation at all about H1N1.
I'm not saying that there wasn't, I just would have remembered if the markets had tanked and if curfews had been enacted, that's all.2 -

Yes5 -
So you're saying that if people panicked and hoarded TP... We would not have had nearly as many deaths for H1N1?
Yes we should be taking the Corona virus seriously, and I would say that most people are. But the way that people are acting is not what is needed. And when you have a 24 hour news Network literally have on their screen "cornona virus: our everyday lives are changed indefinitely" for over an hour. You are going to cause panic and feat into your veiwers. But that's what also gets them veiws, clicks, and most importantly 💲💲. So yes, I still blame the main stream media for this frenzy that is currently happening.5 -

in the final days, as my internet slows to a crawl, and the ronaragezombies are closing in, it will have been my pleasure to post memes about the dying of the earth with you fine people

Missed this post earlier. Holy moly thats a lot. And taking only 10% of the number would be extremely conservative. I’m guessing the percentage of asymptomatic carriers is a heckuva lot less than 90%1 -

I’m fantasizing about teaching my ex sister in law a lesson she needed to learn a long time ago.
I think I’m the right person to do it.
I’ve wanted to for so long.
Put an end to her bs once and for all.
It won’t happen but I can dream about it.
I hardly ever get really angry but she makes me truly furious.
