   Young boys and goats in Iran had better gird their loins. They’re about to get the bat virus cure administered *real hard*.

   The Finns should send an elite No No square team to Tehran to avert the carnage.

   Heard an interesting report where a cruise ship which had suffered the death of a passenger from coronavirus in Mexico continued to cruise to Hawaii and then back to San Francisco. Thanks, you blithering idiots, for apparently trying to spread this disease to two states and a foreign country.

   Regarding Iran, I’m guessing shared bottles of essential oils could be a great way of transmitting the disease, too. Great job, you blithering idiots, for rejecting everything we’ve known about infectious disease since well before Louis Pasteur.

   bike, like I wrote (linked to) before as a comment in another post, the behavior you describe is apparently standard protocol from the US State dept.

   The Iranian leader we saw in a video a week or so ago wasn’t wiping his brow because he had coronavirus, he was more worried that his country wouldnt have enough cotton balls.

   Hopefully they’ll spend a good amount of time hand washing (soap & water) after the oil application. You have to wonder if regular wash-up wouldn’t have been helpful in avoiding the spread of disease before the current outbreak.

   the fact that this isnt a Onion or Babylon Bee article is depressing as hell.

    POD: Protip – don’t right click and “copy link address” in a Google search results page. Open the link and copy from the address bar.

    jdm: ugh. One thing that also shocks me is that the CDC/other government types are trying to use large hospitals for things like ebola and coronavirus, as if it isn’t already too easy to get sick at the hospital. A few years back, it was announced that St. Mary’s in Rochester, 1900 beds strong and counting, was going to be used for ebola treatment.

    Hey, I’m all for having the best people in the business do the work, but maybe….just maybe….a smaller facility that doesn’t have the capability of getting the whole ()*&)(*&^) Mayo Clinic infected just might be a better choice?

    Sometimes it seems like government types are all about treating every problem as a good candidate for a “steam engine” approach; use a big facility with big capabilities even when the actual impact is fairly small. Good grief.
