1. Masks, social distancing should help with all sorts of threats

2. Hope the magats

Get with the program and fucking get over themselves and wear a godamn mask.

One of my friends whines about wearing one.

It's gotten old really quick.

She wears it indoors but does not wear it outdoors.
She seems to think being maskless outside protects her, but not from virus floating areosols. She does not seem to get it that the virus is airborne.

3. They won't

They’re cult members and cannot change.

4. What was that about the four horsemen of the Apocalypse?

The pale one? Hmmm.

6. Trump, Putin, Bolsonaro, Johnson?

Or maybe replace Johnson with Modi?

[roamer65]

9. Large selection nowadays.

HUUUGE.

5. Dear god make it stop!!!!

7. I feel like screaming

China's rich people like the wet markets and when people aren't looking they remove restrictions upon them.

When are the rich going to pay!

8. I wish I could invent time travel.

I'd go back in time and annihilate the wet markets where this shitty virus originated from.

10. 12 Monkeys?

[Initech]

12. Actually I was thinking Avengers Endgame.

But that works!

13. I would destroy money.

And the the markets.

[smirkymonkey]

16. China needs to crack down on these markets.

The entire planet is paying for their negligence and it needs to stop.

11. FUCK IT !! Let me out, let me out of the 2020 car right hot damn now ... I'll walk, fuck it

[Demovictory9]

14. nooooooooooooo

[GulfCoast66]

15. Yeah. But this is a flu we already have the knowledge to make a vaccine for.

It’s a novel virus, but not a Corona virus.

17. The essential problem with constant influenza is that in China

waterfowl and pigs are raised together. They, among other things, eat each other's shit, pass the influenza virus back and forth while not affected themselves. If we could get China to alter some of their animal husbandry practices, the world would be a lot better off.

The wet markets are a problem, but not the primary one.
