Am I alone thinking this caronavirus is being hyped up for some reason we are unaware of? Tonight on telly they are showing a movie called Contagion about a race to cure the world of a deadly disease. The media is rife with news of this deadly virus. Let's put this in perspective. SARS,MRES, bird flu, swine fever , whatever name you want to call it, are all variations of the caronavirus which is defined by the CDC as a mild virus which is deadly mainly to the old and immuno weak people.
OK. Let's look at some facts....last year 645,000 people died of the common flu. In Australia last year 1255 people died of the flu. The year before the figure was 1163. Why the scare tactics? What are they trying to achieve? OK I admit I am a lowly truck driver and possibly have too much time to think about Shit, but here's some wierd arse ideas that came to me...
1,our world is run by people who want to sell us stuff. Is this a way to reign in China economically?
2, is this designed to reset our focus off the cause of the bush fires. i.e excessive fuel loads? Or possibly the Murray Darling fiasco?
3, I don't know...add your thoughts.
Please ladies and gentlemen, these are only my ramblings. They are not here to offend.
Oh yeah...I have slopy shoulders so anything you say will fall straight off. I will not be offended. And if I do. I will get over it. That's how we used to do it in the old days.
