WOO-HOO! It's 949 today. Can we make 1000?!

[matsuki]

Not sure how much the "drop" is real as we know the pandemic must take the weekends off in Japan. My prediction is with the declared emergency and no actual sense of emergency....we hit 5,000 this week.

Looking ever more likely everyday.

Largest customer here just told us no more production for several months (they make public trans vehicles so understandable) and HQ in kaigailand is dealing with the same. Not exactly great signs for the economy.

Tsss...

Nobody saw that one coming...

Like in the movie titanic with Leoronaldo Di Carpaccio, who could have guessed that the boat sunk ? China is like that evil iceberg, there is the top and underwater is 3 times worse...

[matsuki]

...and people said they have waaaay too much undue influence over the WHO.....but since Trump was the one who called it out, it must be fake news, right? Everything Trump did was wrong so we can't admit he did something right. I mean, China defeated the virus early last year and released a book and movie in celebration of the victory as well as honoring that doctor they disappeared for spreading dangerous rumors declared a hero for alerting the world to the virus. Meanwhile massive cities in China are having forced lockdowns life is completely normal in China and the average citizen knows the virus was released in China by the US military and is only reoccurring in China because it comes in on foreign food shipments.



Seriously, I can't believe how many people I know and respect I've heard saying "Well China beat the virus, Wuhan is totally back to normal while we're still dealing with this mess." All those lockdowns, hospitals overcapacity, yeah, that's not Covid-19, it's the just allergies or something. Only 9 cases of Civid-19 found.

Genocide?
...I couldnt really find any reference to mass murders or genocides or holocausts in Japan history books... I guess its maybe another of those wars that never was...
I did find reference to genocide in Japan cartoons, playstation nintendo video games and manga ... while America is allowed print historical books and has spiderman and superman toons, Britain has Sherlock Holmes the Salman Rushdie's Satanic verses book the British Charles Dickens and Shakespeare, France wonders if Asterix is better than Tintin and Aus has a convicted criminal called Ned Kelly as its cartoonish cultural folk hero...Japan got shit like 'genocide jack and jill' whomever they are and 'Super High School Level Murderer '




Let's for a moment say Corona is a type of holocaust

...so as a 'Genocide'...
how bad can Corona get? Worse than your Mongol conquests, worse than 'La Violencia' and country wide mass murder in Colombia country-wide mass murders during the 1950s and 1960s? Worse than the historical Mass suicide of Israeli Jews in history every-time their Rabbi would predict the real Jesus messiah was coming only NOT to arrive and then all the Israeli Jews would suicide themself in mass disappointment? Worse than the historical salve trade, worse than the fields of skulls in Cambodia, worse than Joe Stalin's gulags? worse than Rome's Empire expansion, worse than the Jonestown cult or the Johnstown water collapse Floods Chernobyl and the Tsunami? worse than the mohammedan expansion from Arabia and the islamic rape, murder and occupation of non-muslim lands? worse than the thousands upon thousands of Human sacrifice in Aztec culture?? worse than the suicides of Kamikaze suicide pilots and Sati ritual suicides in street shitting India, worse than the civil wars in Iraq and Libya, more terrible more horrible and worse than world War 2 worse than AIDs, heart disease, or Tuberculosis and malaria combined

“Stop whining.”
https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/56862-stop-whining
― Arnold Schwarzenegger

On 25 July 2020, Bolsonaro announced that he had tested negative for COVID-19 in a fourth test since being diagnosed, although the following week he indicated that he had also started suffering from "mold in the lung". Even so, he stated his opposition to mandatory vaccination against COVID-19.In August 2020, in the middle of the pandemic, Bolsonaro's popularity bounced back and showed signs of recovery, with the president registering his highest approval rating since his inauguration. In early 2021, his approval ratings fell again, mostly due to the government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccination controversies, and concurrent economic crisis that evolved under his watch.

French numbers are coming in.
Countrywide mortality rate have risen 3pt between 2019 and 2020...

Sooo... when 100 people died in 2019, 103 died in 2020...

With a pandemic that had no “official” treatment and no “vaccine” yet...

We all knew back then that our disease repelling rocks were up to the task...
Need to allocate more funds for the kraut repelling holy water though...

[Wage Slave]

"France’s overall mortality rate in 2020, inflated by the COVID-19 pandemic, was nine percent higher than in the previous two years, provisional data released by statistics institute INSEE showed on Friday.

INSEE said that on Jan. 15, a total of 667,400 deaths from all causes had been registered for 2020 in France - 53,900 more than in 2019.

...

These numbers include a drop in death from other causes than Covid, notably a lower death rate for people under 24 that was noticed from March 2020.

Regionally, the Ile-de-France region around Paris was hit the worst, with excess mortality rates of 90% in March-April and 18% for all of 2020.

Eastern France saw excess mortality of 55% in March-April and 13% for the whole year."

I am sure, with all those lock-downs and stay-at-home things, a lot of lives have been saved; be it only because there were fewer drunk drivers out on the roads. And not only in France I guess.

So, apparently as of today

France 100 000 covid death (whole country in state of fire sale, the lights are still on, but the price of candles and syringes filled with potassium is starting to go through the roof)
Pop 67 miliunz (including arabz, muslims, towel heads, camel jockey, goat fuckers and islamofascists: number between 3 and 49 miliuns depending on which insane asylum escaped inpatient you asked)

japan 9 600 covid death (country daily life, mostly business as usual)
Pop 227 127 miliunz (including the 198 card carrying members of the japanese communist party at large or awaiting in death row)

So let’s keep on bashing japan on the lack of deployement of vaccines that have been YOLO’ed to the market overnight (but hey... seems pfizer discovered you need 2 booster shots now... maybe... fuck it anyway just call their accounting dept to be sure)
Also, latest news from the who seems to indicate that the mortality is actually on par with the regular flue... so... everybody panic please !!

Please !

Please ?

No !?

Ok, whatever, let’s just pretend to care about the death of lardasses, cripples and fossils. It’s really a shame that grandpa had to die at 82 instead of 83... The reanimation team of the hospital did their best though... and please, don’t let anyone bring up the fact that pre chinkflue nobody in their right mind would make an 82 yo patient suffer in reanimation for the honor of staying alive 6 more month before dying from something else or even more hideously... dying of old age..

Edit: proofreading jap pop 227->127 (typo, but littles bitches love so much to jump on this to crown themselves king turd on top of shit mountain...)

"OMG!WEALLGONNADIE!STAYINSIDE4EVAR!! LOCKDOWN!!PAYUSMONEYGOBBMENT!!"

to

Corona? Fuck that, Nomikai on Sat, you coming?

The guy who invited me to the Nomikai caught Corona...he's still alive. When both extremes are wrong, there is a nice middle ground where I need not go full prepper yet should not be out on the town drinking in groups. As for the vaccine, more deadly or not, this thing is much more contagious and best be stamped out ASAP. Not going to our new normal until the vaccination is mostly complete. Just be happy the options we'll have are better than flipping a coin...

A coronavirus vaccine developed by China's Sinovac has been found to be 50.4% effective in Brazilian clinical trials, according to the latest results released by researchers.

On a country-scale, trying to hold back Omicron seems like a being anti-nature's vaccine. Why delay the inevitable and the economy suffer? People "at risk" know who they are and there are plenty of tools available to protect them while the rest of us get on with life.
