A lot of Americans aren't taking this seriously still. I think they need to start fining people here as well. The rotten thing is if America struggles to contain the virus, it's going to affect everyone else economically.


Tbh if you just do nothing a ton of boomers die, lots of medical workers traumatised but it'll be over faster.

US firmly in third spot now after China and Italy. Because of it's much larger population the US will most likely see itself in second spot shortly.

China is hardly reporting new cases meaning the US might be well on it's way to push the Chinese from the nr 1 spot :(

USA #1 babyyyyyyyyy!!!

U-S-A!
U-S-A!


:rofl: :wallbash:



But seriously: I dont buy those Chinese numbers. They surely dont have a massive, out of control outbreak like Italy atm, but the numbers they're reporting are just too good to be true.

it's gonna be really funny to read excuses from Trump voters who cheered on the "Trump can call this china virus because China did such an awful job stopping it from being spread" if we do take the #1 spot.

i can only assume liberals, media, and Hillary Clinton will be to blame.

I don't blindly trust their numbers but they are slowly easing restrictions now, reopening cinemas and stuff. That does mean something.

I'll take a Blackberry Peach Crunch and a Butterfinger pie from Betty's, plz.


Rustic Inn's Lemon Angel FTW :) Nothing like a good pie rivalry for consumer benefit.

Russia's numbers (or lack thereof) are suspicious though.

Either they are covering it up OR they had some amazing heads up about what was coming so they could take drastic action early. Either way, suspicious AF.

Well we don't know for sure but the Russians seem to take it very seriously. At the world chess candidates tournament at least, from what we can see.
