We are free to think that until it's us, our family or friends that get killed by the virus...and then it gets personal. Better to do right action (as a species) long before it gets to that.
Let me be clear and unequivocal, if its a war between MAN and the virus, I am on the side of MAN!
However, i am also wary of the old adage: "Truth is the first casualty of war"
I would not be surprised at all if we learn this virus escaped from the Wuhan BSL4 facility. There is a well known virologist there who was working with virus transmission through bats apparently (ebola, SARS etc.).
That said, the fatality rate of this virus is pretty low if the reported infections and deaths are being reported accurately. The real question is whether or not these deaths were preventable through proper health care (nearly all deaths are in China). If that is the case, then deaths in western countries will likely be very low and in the third world probably quite a bit higher. At least this doesn't seem to have virulence of something like Ebola virus. Doesn't look a whole lot worse than various Flu strains.
None of this is to say it shouldn't be taken seriously but the response should be measured against the real threat it poses.

No idea what I’m talking about? Please explain how an ICE (human) is not polluting the environment. That is undeniable fact.
It is just a figure of speech...my meaning should be clear.
We can get all academic when its theoretical...but it changes when it hits close to home and theory gets thrown out the window in favour of raw emotion.
It is fact and truth only in as much as status quo obtains. We can and should do better all 'round.
So yeah, we are not disagreeing per se, we just talk at cross purposes. Cheers
Tongue in cheek, no malice intended...so please dont take this the wrong way.
Would you volunteer to off yourself to ease the "problem" by a count of one?
Unless you are willing to do so, such cold academic talk is lttle different from Eugenics..
By this definition, all life on earth is a "pollutant"...if killing life to save "the earth" (whatever that means exactly to you) is what you propose, then I can go there with you. THat is not to say that humans as a species create pollution, this is a fact but we are not inherently pollution. I would not necessarily agree that we are causing the "death" of planet earth, either. This hyperbolic talk not really based on hard science.
There's one thing more powerful than this virus. That's the mods w their collective fingers over the TERMINATE THREAD button.
The moment the Ron antibody detects too much politics antigen, it has a 100% disinfectant success rate.

Six episodes, total = 4 hours and 40 minutes.
New documentary on Netflix ... for the brain ...
I'm half way (3 episodes) ... between two classical albums (chamber music with piano, cello and violin)

Medicine we can use; vaccine, antidote, prevention, awareness, protection, survival, and don't eat bats.

This is a classification from the professionals who work in that area. I’m merely using their terminology. You can search and find many examples stating so.
Yes, especially if they are genetically predisposed to criminal behavior
No idea what you’re talking about. I never once mentioned genetics.
Right, we got that "scientific" approach too
As a man of Jesus you’d think you’d be kinder, gentler, without so much lying.
Thats too bad, another thread of mine completely destructed.
We are all sensitive; if there is only one negative personal comment towards another member it creates a chain reaction like a virus spreading. Among some of the smartest people here it should never happen.
Here's what I suggest for the best of the best: No one member on this site is a bad person, so just respect everyone as good people, like among your friends and family and wives and kids.
Try it, with practice you'd be good @ it, I can guarantee it.
"You" here means no one in particular. We all have some adjustments to make occasionally, me first. I tell you what; I started this new decade with some brand new resolutions, and I want to succeed with those positive goals. And I will succeed, with or without support.
We make wrong judgments and we get stuck with them; just unstuck them and we become in charge of a better destiny, us, all of us together, as a solid team.
No more deviation, back on track...Coronavirus, and nothing else; no personal call, no bull, no drama, no panic, and no politic...never ever. I'm so sick of the politics in the news every single day; truly very sick...they are worst than the worst gangsters.
Ok? Let's get this virus under control ...

I'm curious, do you know how the electricity is generated to power your nice little audio kit ??
