That video has CC-translations into 25 languages, not auto-translations!

 

I found one problem in the poster's notes, where it said, 

"Through this project, we look forward to empowering and trusting the community, so that we can join hands to combat COVID-19", which made me think, "uh, aren't we supposed to avoid "touching hands"?

They just closed the borders in Poland, no foreigners, Poles coming back from outside the borders will get sent for at least 14 days in isolation.

 

edit: I hate the party rulling in Poland now for a lot of things and even though their reaction now it's a bit late but I am really happy they're reacting in that way and so fast.

 

1. Controls on the borders since 15th of March for next 10 or 20 days, probably longer
2. No enter for fereigners to Poland
3. Poles coming back from foreign countries 2 weeks in quarantine

Situation in Mexico is contingency 1 (of 4) and with the results of 15 individuals infected and 82 suspicious. All this people were imported pretentiously.

Country works as of "normal" but with already the mass media bombing with that wich has caused some panic, everyone talks about it.

"Tianguis Turístico" wich is a mega commercial event here in Mexico was canceled in the 2020 development event at Merida, Yucatan.

mass media bombing

Thank you for that "good expression".  The news media here in the USA seems to be more 'informative' now, and doing less 'bombing'. (Less like Social Media, that is.)

 

Rumors are 'exploding' on Social Media, such as that the virus was the work of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, that the Wuhan-Virus was the work of US Army persons who had traveled to Whuhan in October for the " Military World Games" in Wuhan.  I stopped all searching right here...

 

While looking up that last meme, I found a site that noted, "Virus-hit Wuhan has two laboratories linked to Chinese bio-warfare program". OMG!  That last one was from a legitimate news organization! I am going to stop searching now.  This is too serious an event to be laughing about. I cannot leave without mentioning one last absurdity, that calling this contagion "the Wuhan Flu" is racist.  At least most news media here have stopped calling it the "coronavirus" and have begun using the term, "COVID-19", 

 

// .. (WHO) officially named this novel coronavirus COVID-19. COVID is short for coronavirus disease. The number 19 refers to the fact that the disease was first detected in 2019, though the outbreak occurred in 2020.

I would guess that Twitter is in Full Hurricane Season now! I rarely visit it, except via links from other sites.

In Wuhan, China built a fully functional, 1000 bed hospital in 10 days. TEN DAYS!

[L3ftY.]

Went to the grocery store this morning at 6:55 as they open at 7am. I have gone there in the past at the same time and I am the only one in the store. Had to be 100 people in line today. I only needed milk and bread. Shelves were empty. People rushing to buy toilet paper.
I bought my milk at the corner gas station for $6.

I bet you there are people right now preparing for a zombie onslaught. Guaranteed. That's the iq of some of these idiots.

I am thinking that the the architectural plans already existed.  I wonder if this is a sort of "standard hospital plan" in China?  // Yes, it is //

From BusinessInsider, " Feb 5, 2020,"  A construction expert broke down how China built an emergency hospital to treat Wuhan coronavirus patients in just 10 days

 

Snippets are in the spoiler:

 

 

 

 

The 645,000-square-foot makeshift medical facility, which took in its first patients on Tuesday, is made up of two floors and is already equipped with 1,000 beds, several isolation wards, and 30 intensive care units.

 

Using prefabricated units is the key to constructing a building at such a fast speed, according to David Hartley, managing director of engineering company NTX, which also focuses on hospital construction in the UK.

 

"Instead of first building the foundation and then following up with the superstructure (ie. the steel frame, the building, and the cladding), prefabricated units allow the construction of the foundation and the building envelope to take place in parallel.

 

"So the pre-fabricated element, which would be the Lego blocks that you would can see being craned in, are actually fabricated off-site in a factory at the same time the foundations are being prepared on-site."

 

The panic-built Huoshenshan hospital was also modeled on the blueprints of a medical facility which was set up in Beijing in 2003 to help tackle the SARS epidemic, which also helped speed up the construction process, according to Quartz.
