Looks like this shifted rather quickly from information and discussion about the coronavirus to just littering casual xenophobia. There is a specific subforum here for you to litter that rhetoric if that's how you want to spend your weekend.

What kind of consequences?

They should be roundly roasted on internet message boards and in social media.  In the end, that is really all that will happen.  

Not that the average Chinese citizen would ever know as access to a lot of social media is blocked.

A lot of people work from home such as myself. A lot of companies are now offering to let people work and home when they normally would be in the office because of this situation 

I also work from home.  My employer has spent a lot of time and money building up excess capacity for working from home, in part for situations just like this.  Guess we are about to find out how well it works.

Some of the criticism of China is a bit overblown.  This could happen anywhere. Places like China and India are more likely due to population density, but it could still happen in other places. Even in the US.   

There's a reason why novel coronaviruses for the past two decades or more continue to be largely traced back to Chinese wet markets. It's not a condemnation of China or the Chinese people as a whole, but the way those wet markets work with a smorgasbord of everything that walks, crawls, or flies being housed in very close proximity and slaughtered in the open gives these viruses the ideal environment they need to cross the species barrier and ultimately infect humanity. There's more than enough evidence at this point to show that these things are a global health hazard and that evidence existed before COVID-19. Once we get over this one there needs to be SERIOUS international pressure on China to shut down these wet markets.

Half right. I started my own firm 10 years ago. Last year I sold off 75% of it allowing me to be off from May - December. 

But I do live with a wife, 2 kids, a dog and some cats. 

That's my point how are you safe at home when your kids have school and your wife has a job?

Nobody is going to sit at home everyday for 2 months. At some point you're going to want to go out and have family night.

      Who do you despise more… LaMelo Ball or Bryce Young

      By Lurk21 · Posted

      Names I'd keep an eye on... Coby White,  Jalen Suggs, Amen Thompson  and Stephen Castle...  3 teams except Orlando has checked on Melo before and rumblings of sours getting rid of fox too. I'd think they think Melo and Wemby would make them nuclear out west.

      Well he somehow had 12 preseason carries for not playing. He also has 20 carries in the regular season, not three. He has actually played in about 7% of the offensive snaps for this regular season(33% of the special teams snaps). This isn't stuff you have to make up, these are very easily referenced statistics, man.

      It's not common for a RB to recover from two ACL tears in the same knee. It's fairly rare. You are correct that it isn't the career ender that it used to be but there is also the fact that we appear to have largely moved on with the additions of Dowdle and Etienne.  Dobbins is a very good example. He has basically missed 54% of his career regular season games since he came into the league in 2020. It will end up being 57% at the conclusion of this season. It's a big contributing factor to why he is on this third NFL team in 6 years. It's certainly possible that may be 4 by the beginning of next season. I would say there is very little chance that Brooks ever contributes in any meaningful way in Carolina. Possibly with another team but I am extremely skeptical of his future here because of those injuries and because of the roster.
