    Appreciated. I am, two different journalists have tweeted it. It seems to have only have only happened recently, minutes or hours. While it could be a fire of anything, they seem fairly sure it's s facility that is housing patients. I'm sure they could confirm easily enough if that wasn't the actual facility.

    Was it in Qom?

    aaah, I know people are concerned but I think people need to give runaways a break. he's probably asleep or needs a rest, stressing him out with adressing him here isn't very nice I think.
    he sounds like a sensible guy, I remember his posts from the former thread or at the beginning of this one. don't think he's mingling with people, he said he's self isolating, not even able to go out I think.

    he might come back tomorrow but I wouldn't stress it now.
    Fair enough. I haven't been online today much so maybe missed something you're referring to...last time I read something from him it was a day or two ago? Def not my intention to be nagging 🀷

    I just don't think burning the evidence is a plausible tactic in this instance.

    So it's probably a load of crap

    Eh, not likely to be whats happening. More than likely scared locals not wanting coronavirus patients near them.

    But the CEO tells us the hse is prepared + has the capacity for cornavirus cases.

    What an absolute pile of s**te. Absolute and utter lies.

    In fairness it's the HSE, not actually a beacon of truth and transparency now are they.

    The coronavirus could be up to 1,000 times more infectious than SARS because it plagues the body in the same way as HIV and Ebola, scientists warn.

    Experts initially presumed the spread of COVID-19 would follow the same trajectory as the SARS outbreak in 2002/3, because the viruses are almost identical genetically.

    But they have discovered the way it binds to cells in the human body is akin to far more aggressive diseases like HIV and Ebola.

    This makes it '100 to 1,000 times' more efficient at infecting people than SARS, according to researchers from Nankai University in Tianjin, northern China.

    A new war in the middle East between NATO and Russia is looming, subsequent refugee swarm, a seemingly never ending procession of storms, plagues of locusts and now a pandemic.
    Maybe we should just admit we're ****ed and that no amount of hand sanitiser or stockpiling will save us from the impending doom.

    🙈🙉🙊

    I'm no microbiologist but the wording of that looks like a bad Google translation of a tabloid article.

    The north koreans will just shoot anyone who has symptoms so oddly enough they'll probably be the fastest to recover!
