If Trump’s main purpose of his news conference was to steady the stock market, he failed miserably as Dow futures are down 350! Oil is falling still more. But the good news is that gold is up. That’s the market Trump actually helped lol.

The Dow futures started falling during his news conference and they haven’t looked back since.

Union leaders are often political hacks, no doubt, but Judd is an active border agent himself. And truly, why is it so hard to believe? Chinese nationals illegally cross the southern border all the time.

Coronavirus in my opinion is gonna be the new virus that probably will turn seasonal after it explodes, it’ll get worse during winter as people stay together more and slow down in the summer, but the amount of severe cases will go down as there will be a little immunity, and medicines/anti-virals will likely be developed in the next months to years, that’s my opinion, even if warmth/cold has nothing to do with it, people wild likely get it more during the winter Becuase like I said that’s when people often stay inside more, H1N1 is like that, norovirus is like that, you can still get it in the summer but it’s more prevalent in the winter from schools/daycares and like what I said before

The vaccine will likely be added to the yearly preventative. Either in a separate shot or added to the influenza vaccine much like H1N1 was after the swine flu. My guess is it will be a separate vaccine given that it’s not an influenza...imagine getting 2 flu shots now, it may be a reality. Mass immunizations unfortunately may not be possible come next fall when needed. It’s going to take a lot of manpower to manufacture it in time.

So you think it's a bioweapon? You are one of the only people on this board with medical experience and I value your opinion.

I do. Seeing as how a General in the Chinese Army that used to oversee the Bio Weapons lab in Wuhan was tasked with the fallout. There is no chance that this was just happenstance. There are also reports now being made that this was indeed created as a bio weapon and it got out. I don’t know how, but seeing as how SARS came about from an infected animal that was sold as food (animal had been used in lab testing) I think this is somehow also the case here.

This is why you (general you) have to get your head out of the sand and consider the risk of things like this and prepare before the risk becomes a reality that is self evident to everyone. I'm telling you, we are right on the edge of some stuff we have not seen in our lifetimes here in the US. There's still time to make some preparations, but in all likelihood, not much.

People are generally way too reliant on things working the way they always have and think there's just no way things can be different.

Everything that we rely on is just barely available. But you don't notice it when things are normal. When we all want it at the same time, you won't be able to get it. And any disruption to the just in time supply chains, will greatly exacerbate this.

Many, many people cross the southern border. All from different countries. I have a friend that works CBP in the Tucson Sector and another with El Paso Sector and you wouldn’t believe the things I’ve heard from them.

Through my work with FEMA I’ve met a lot of different people with DHS and they all have said the same thing. There is nowhere near the amount of illegal border crossings on the northern border as there are on the southern border.

You hit the nail on the head. Most in this country don't have a way to feed themselves or family if the store is closed. My dirty hippie parents were smart enough to buy a bunch of good farmland. They wanted to live off the land but couldn't stop working. I was lucky enough to stop working for anyone after the last crash and support myself off of the land. My friends thought I was crazy for wanting to do such hard work for so little money. I think i will plant enough to feed anyone I know in need. Just got a incubator for making more chickens

While I don’t think this will be the event, I agree in general. This will be a good test to show how dependent we are.

People in the US are reacting to the situation as though it were already an emergency, which makes these shortages & price spikes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
