Time to read THE LAST CENTURION?

For the resident conspiracy theorists... not that I expect actual research to slow them down...

First up: The Trump admin tries to invest in a german biotech company working on a COVID-19 vaccine .... which would be good, but the Trump admin being what it is, they tried to secure exclusive rights to the vaccine for the US, so the offer was firmly rejected by the company's ownership.

...Idiot. The last thing Trump currently could allow himself to do is trying to make a profit on crisis. And he done exactly that. Idiot...

After listening/reading/viewing to some of his press conferences, and thus being exposed to comments of his supporters etc
I am pretty sure Trump could sell Jesus's pickled nuts a dozen bucks a pop (and he'd have a truck full of them despite them being issued by the manufacturer only in pairs for most men),
and yet his supporters would still vote for the shmuck!
they really are that partisan and stupid :/

Considering that basically everything you said in this thread was laughably incorrect, it is hard to not ridicule you, you know.

Actually, I have been more accurate sooner than any of you foreigners. I viewed the early news as an opportunity to begin an interesting thread with the expectation that the China virus would not escalate into an global crisis. Now it has. Now the infection is pandemic. It will abate this summer in the Northern hemisphere but Australia is screwed. If we don't have a vaccine by next Fall, the number of confirmed infections will be numbered in the tens of millions rather than the tens of thousands.

forgive me, but I seem to recall that most of the population in the states comes from Europe.

maybe I was wrong - maybe you all magically floated down from heaven with perfect genes and a perfect immune system?

Hey fucktards. Most Americans are hybrids. I have native American ancestry from at least two of my four grandparents and probably a third. Even African-Americans have a high percentage of native American ancestry. Ethnic Europeans generally don't have any native American ancestry. You're are FUBARed.

The average American have 10-15% of native American genes. The pattern, of course, is geographically-dependent; more in Southwest and California, less in Rocky Mountains area.

Oh hey, the patented TFLY mathematical acumen is at work again.
And in a repeat of a classic TFLY post, he once again is confused about deep and esoteric questions like "what is a majority".

There's at least one study that estimates that less than 1 percent of african americans, less than 0.2% of european americans and about 20% of hispanic americans have some amount of native american ancestry; If 0.8% of african americans is a "high" percentage, I kinda have to wonder what you would consider a low one.

That's assuming, of course, that there is anything to this bullshit. I would bet that there isn't; as with any infectious disease as broadly infectious as corona, it's the level of care and prevention that matters, not who your ancestors were.

Anyone else find it telling that TFLY went from using the name Corona virus to the China virus?

Sigh, sigh... Ya know, I've come to the conclusion that TFLY doesn't believe most of the stuff he, himself, posts. He's just trying to get a reaction...
