There are some simple things that HK does, like plastic film over lift buttons, so that it’s easy to sanitise.

I didn't realise lift buttons were difficult to sanitise? Why can't you just wipe them with disinfectant?

Things start to go overboard in this regard, I mean lift buttons? What about every other public surface in existence, are folks going to walk around opening things with a foot press or elbow or wave at a scanner, just to avoid germs?

Sure as hell don't touch money if germs are a problem, also don't talk to anyone, or shake hands - no no, that's instant transferal. We can all then add to the immuno-weaknesses that already might exist because some mums excessively disinfect their house and kids don't get a proper dose of bugs in their childhood.

This mentality is why Australia isn't going to do well through this.

The "Yeah, nah, she'll be right". Will make you tougher kind of response. Bud, that's why there will be a vaccination eventually built to ensure our immune systems can cope.

I mean, where do you draw the line? Would SARS landing in Australia mean that we start doing some smart things? Ebola?

High-touch surfaces such as lift buttons, public toilet doors (keep them open) all helps. You could label it soft. Label it an overreaction. But I would prefer to go with facts rather than a uncorrelated assumption about cleanliness causing auto-immune issues. Sounds all a bit anti-vax!

It is an over reaction though . Running around like chicken little is mental . Even at its worse it is only affecting a small percentage of the population. Kids are immune , relatively young people will experience mild symptoms, even the over 65s have a small percentage of the total population affected.
Cleary your hands , follow basic hygiene and she will be right . And if you have a preexisting respiratory or heart problem , than yea be more diligent . Otherwise it’s business as usual .

How is being smart about high touch surfaces running around like chicken little?

I didn’t say that . I was referring to the societal over reaction , of which you referenced by saying “we Weren’t going to do so well , because of the she’ll be right attitude”.
I even said clean your hands in my previous post . What are you talking about ?
 
Whatever one thinks of this from a strictly medical standpoint, overhyped or bloody dangerous, from an economic standpoint this will bring a global recession for sure.

Total collapse in international travel, some of the biggest companies telling staff to work from home, trade at a standstill, whole cities (and not just in China) under quarantine. And all of this at a time when global debt is at record highs.

This will be another GFC scenario

Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon supporters believing the virus is a hoax created by the democrats, and the people who have died have been made up. This is who some people on here identify with?
 
Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon SUPPORTER: I really think it’s a hoax.

REPORTER: When you say hoax, what do you mean?

Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon SUPPORTER: I think it’s made up by the Democrats. I mean, there are more cases of the common flu than there are the coronavirus.

REPORTER: So you don’t believe the coronavirus exists?

Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon SUPPORTER: I don’t.

REPORTER: So the two people who have been reported to have died from it in Washington state, you don’t trust that that’s true?

Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon SUPPORTER: I don’t trust anything the Democrats do.

On the flip side you can cancel your Netflix subscription and read this for free. It's entertaining if nothing else.
 
Just back to the upcoming NRL season opening games- if there are further reported cases and things escalate, you would have to think theres a chance that games will be called off?

That's just the tip of the 'stupid' iceberg over there. I'm in regular discourse with a couple of Trumpnuffies that believe that climate change was made up by the democrats. I'm no longer surprised that Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon got in as president.

Climate change is something that can be hotly debated and at the end, both sides will come out believing they’ve won the argument. Calling a virus that has killed thousands of people a hoax created by a political party is not living in reality. Crazier than people killing each other over toilet paper.

I doubt the games will be called off unless a team is infected. It is quite possible however that they play in an empty stadium where the only option is to watch it on TV.

Yeah that’s what I meant but you said it much more eloquently.

I think something like that would only happen if the city/state/country went into complete lockdown and no one could leave their homes, which is probably a one in a million chance of happening.

The product is more for TV anyway so hopefully they get on the field
