Medical staff need them.

No they do not. The masks being distributed  through the blue flag program, or available at retail outlets are not suitable for infectious diseases. SARS CoV-2 is a virus associated with the  respiratory system. The cheap masks  to which you refer do not protect against the virus. An airtight mask with appropriate filter worn in conjunction with eye protection and personal protection garments specifically impermeable outer ware is the SOP.

How about America pay for Union Carbide? 2008? H1N1?

Your attempt to run off tangents  and to distract fails again. Why not  address the issue at hand specific to this case, that the Chinese government and the people of China have a direct responsibility for this  current  pandemic because of their insistence on killing and torturing  animals in the mistaken belief that it will give them super human powers and will cure their ailments of impotency and environmentally induced illness?

 

In respect to your infantile attempt to distract, the historical record shows that your insinuations are malicious and deceitful.

The USA had nothing to do with the  Bhopal India catastrophe. Union Carbide India was managed by Indians and had a 49% ownership stake from the Indian government and Indian banks. Because of Union Carbides public ownership including  foreign interests, the  "American" ownership of the Indian company would have been a minority interest. The subsequent investigation supported the position that  human sabotage was the likely cause of the disaster, and the investigation demonstrated an Indian government cover up. The multiple  class actions against Union Carbide in plaintiff favourable jurisdictions were denied and dismissed.

 

What happened in 2008? There was the   H5N1 avian flu epidemic in Bengal India. This had nothing to do with the USA, although US funding helped create a preventative vaccine.

 

H1NI Which one? The  epidemic of  2009 in the USA was imported from Mexico. it migrated from mexico into the USA. The epicenter was Veracruz, Mexico. It was a variation of a EuroAsian virus which indicates that it had been imported into Mexico to begin with and it then combined with viruses endemic in the USA.

 

I suggest you  stick to  Marxist polemics and avoid issues which require scientific fact you will get caught out when you make inappropriate  insinuations.

I think eating bat soup is more decadent than gay bestiality. Ah, those tiny little differences between Asian and Western thinking.

For your information, the Chinese generally do not eat bats. And you can get infected by bats not by eating them anyway. In 2018 in Kerala, India, 17 people died from viral encephalitis caused by the Nipah virus. Patient 0 had eaten a fruit that was partially eaten by a bat.

You being not a Chinese, obviously do not know that in Chinese culture, the bat is a symbol of good fortune.

Why the Chinese are batty about bats and westerners are not.

A bat cave run by Thai monks shows it's hard to banish virus risk


 

Quote

In three hours, they can amass as many as 500 buckets of bat dung. The guano is packaged and sold at an adjacent temple as fertilizer, reaping more than 75,000 baht ($2,400). Just 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds) of the nutrient-rich material can fetch as much as the daily minimum wage.

Thanks for that. Led me to Nipah which I hadn't heard of before:

The disease was first identified in 1998 during an outbreak in Malaysia while the virus was isolated in 1999. It is named after a village in Malaysia, Sungai Nipah.

 

So how's the bat soup down south, spicy?

The Malaysian government back in 1998, bungled in their initial response, thinking it was a Japanese Encephalitis (JE) outbreak. So, thousands of pigs were vaccinated with the JE vaccine. Because syringes were reused during the vaccination exercise, the disease spread even faster and the pigs and their farmers continued to die, devastating the pig industry. Malaysian medical researchers discovered that a new virus was the culprit, which was later named the Nipah virus. After the crisis ended, another researcher found the same virus in fruit bats, so the pigs somehow have gotten the infection from the fruit bats, which then infected humans. A pig might have eaten a fruit that fell into the pig sty, which either had bat saliva or urine on it.

The Chinese generally do not eat wildlife, unless they are into alternative medicine if they have some kind of chronic health problems. For example, some believe that crocodile meat is good for asthma. The rural Malays are known to hunt flying foxes (giant fruit bats) for food and I believe some Chinese do eat them. Never heard of anyone had gotten sick from eating them. After all, the Malays and the Chinese don't eat raw meat. The only wildlife that I think many Chinese have eaten before is wild boar meat, but it is eaten not for medical reasons. Venison is also widely eaten, but nowadays deer are mostly reared in farms.

Oh they're getting the bill and paying it in full, one way or another.

That's because people aren't graphs.

 

Out of 80982 cases, 62889 have recovered fully and gone home. I'd call that an improvement. There is a world outside the internet.

 

 

Have another look>>>>>>>>

It is now double 80000

Oh I just thought of another point highlighted on the internet. The world's stock market has fallen the greatest in it's history. Please tell us all what is causing that if not the worsening effect of covid19. Lets us know when the market has hit rock bottom also, so we can buy and get a bit back that our portfolio is losing.

you are talking garbage, the chinese eat anything that moves and doesnt in some cases, the wuhan wet market where this virus started sells a huge mix of wild animals of every description as has been stated even by the chinese, the chinese appetite for wild or rare animals is responsible for many animal deaths and why some animals have become extremely scarce, then  of course their is their fetish with dog meat as well. Suggest you get your facts sorted as they are very poor and not correct

& then switched sides when they found out Japan was losing the war 555

Shh. You're not supposed to remember that, or the US bombing of Bangkok, or how Thais folded in record time to the Japanese and got de facto invaded, etc, etc..

And apparently you were brainwashed, too.  Why have allied bombing missions become US bombing missions?

Which forms the model on what can be expected for regional power relationships for Thailand it would seem. Only Vietnam will defy the new regional hegemon.
