Watching cruise line prices.
Any drama affecting that industry and prices plummet.

China locked up the doctors that first reported this.
China is a shoebox built for 4 rats that they have shoved 2 billion rats in.

Went to dinner with @Clearmax tonight and he was saying the factories he deals with in China are now being closed down for two weeks. Also mentioned they are considering closing a schools district down in SOuthern California next to Arcadia??




We have to fly to Miami on Wednesday and I’m really not looking forward to being in an international airport..


Oh and for those not worried yet? I told Stacy to buy anti viral masks.. completely sold out online everywhere!!! WTF!!

Got any friends on Havasu fire? If so you might be able to get 2 N95 masks from them.

They Quarantined on a cruise ship that ported in Japan. Nobody allowed to get off. Dozens of people tested positive.

I'm not too worried yet. I think Vancouver has five cases now, not enough to worry. Our city of Richmond is home to our international airport, the city majority population is Chinese. My SIL is Chinese, born and raised in China. She is avoiding Richmond and Chinese people in general. She is also wearing masks. She doesn't trust the Chinese government figures and thinks its much worse.

61 confirmed so far on that ship. Now that other countries are getting to test for it the reality is setting in that this thing is way more contagious than China reported and people are highly contagious long before they show a single symptom.

I won’t be getting on a cruise ship anytime in the near future.

I got quarantined on a cruise ship when I contracted the Nora virus...it’s was sort of a big deal and the CDC got involved.

I can’t imagine what’s happening on a ship with coronavirus running rampant...

Fucking millenial rapper. How stupid you must be:rolleyes:

TPM: When you first made the statement, what was the reaction of the other people on the plane? Did anyone laugh or were people more freaked out?

Potok: No. Nobody laughed. Most of the people sitting around me just said, ‘You joking, right?’ and I said, ‘Yes, of course I’m joking.’ My intent was never to harbour any fear. My intent certainly was not to try and scare anyone. I was simply doing this to create a video. Something that I could look back at after and in a sense, make light of a very dark thing that’s going on right now. The word coronavirus, it’s an epidemic right now.

TPM: When they first started turning the plane around, what were you thinking?

Potok: Knowing how long I was in the air for, knowing that we should have been arriving in Jamaica in thirty minutes, when I heard the plane turn around, that’s when I started to feel extremely guilty, extremely remorseful. I was upset with myself because I knew what was happening. We were about to ruin the plans and trips for all 200 and some people. So the guilt sank in right away. In hindsight it’s something that I’m not proud of and would never do again.

Think about how many people get the flu each year in the US (probably somewhere around 5% to 20% of the population). Then think about how many people transfer it to others (I read somewhere that each person that gets the flu gives it to 1.2 people). I heard that each person that gets the coronavirus gives it to 4 people.

Buy now sail later.
When the Carnival Triumph fuckstory hit the news Disney cruises cut their prices 60% with a pre paid bar tab included.

Industry wide prices crash. They have to sail empty or full unless quarantined and this flu will have past by then.

Germans don't get sick and it’s only a 5% chance you’ll tap out if you do. If you do tap out can I have your bicycle?

1/3 of the ship no kids, adult dining shifts and great nite clubs, nicest cruise - best food and entertainment we ever found.
Swimming with the Dolphins always gets the wife motivated. Oh, and hand feeding bananas to the giant turtles and nurse sharks.

it was a pathogen just released "accidentally" by the Chinese government.
It's just their way of getting a handle on their population problem.

I have zero desire for any of the big cruise lines/ships...🤪...ZERO.
Our last two cruises have been on ships with less than 200 passengers.

I don't understand the appeal of a cruise ship.
I’m a history fan and it’s the best way to experience the Panama Canal. Especially at a huge discount

We have done the Disney Cruise twice and would do it again, maybe not right now though.

Approx. a 50% jump in confirmed cases in roughly 3 days from 40,444 to 60,329.
Note: U.S. Northern Command prepping for pandemic.

Chicken Little Syndrome. ... This is called Chicken Little Syndrome (The sky is falling!), and humans are, unfortunately, very adept at employing it. When an unfortunate but isolated mishap occurs, it's easy to let your imagination run wild with all the possible causes and eventual consequences that will lead to Doom.
