>>11575668Its irrelevant. By the time it developed it will be ineffective against any serious threat. Not that this was a serious threat in the first place.
The mass hysteria we see over this bad flu is driven by politicians buying into the hype after the fact.
Even in New Zealand when news of the virus in china first broke, many people were saying to immediately close the borders as pre-cautionary measure. NZ, with only air and sea travel routes in and out. A far easier task to implement than Europe or Asia. They were ignored of course. Then once the virus got here it was panic stations and lockdown. So we got the "Queue up at the supermarket but cant go surfing on a beach" level of irrational nonsense. By this time it was already apparent that Corona was nothing more than a bad flu with a mortality rate lower than the average daily NZ road toll, a flu that killed mostly the elderly and sick. So did we go with "just isolate the sick and elderly"? Nope. Got to go through the prescribed government lockdown in stages, week by week. These fucking morons run the country by the way. Everything since then has been hindsight rationalizing and political leverage. On a local scale every asshole has been seeking to take advantage, like everywhere else, from employers being cunts to neighbors narcing on each other. Thankfully rare, but it happens enough. Its also appalling how many people have bought into the official line, you hear them parroting the same shit they hear on the media.
Now they are publicly trotting out the idea of chipped Corona cards as a measure for tracking people's movements and contacts. A watered down version of Bill Gate's idea. Wont happen this time, but you got to admire how they will lay the idea out in the public domain for reactivation sometime in the future in some form or other.
On the plus side though there is some benefit for having a full scale dress rehearsal for when a serious disease hits. Which it will, sooner or later.
