Let’s Send our Love to China
Ladies
Let’s show our love to those chinks getting sick. How about an entourage of you going to Wuhan and proving you are immune because of Jesus’ protection? Those who can’t leave home and family or simply prefer to do it long distance would still make an impact. Volunteers? |
Re: Let’s Send our Love to China
This is basically what I'm proposing here.
Look, I've even got images we can use for my rows of medals. "Hero of Corona-gate" we'll call it. You're welcome. https://s3.amazonaws.com/pix.iemoji....dical-mask.png https://s3.amazonaws.com/pix.iemoji....hermometer.png On the other (unwashed) hand, we should bring the Chinese here instead. Better to show how welcoming we are. And if Coronavirus actually turns out to be real, then that's even better, it proves we're so welcoming we will welcome people at the cost of a global pandemic that kills hundreds of millions. Now THAT's welcoming! That should keep down the accusations of racism for a few news cycles. |

How would the distance thing work? We can't talk to them on the phone, or write them letters explaining our Jesus-given immunity, because they don't speak American. And my prayer schedule is quite full at the moment, consisting mainly of causes that I actually care about. So much as I'd like to help I think I'm going to have to give this a miss. |

Besides all of that, I am required here, as I do have my lovely epergnes to dust. But, speaking of China, it's now time for my tea -- today in a lovely bone china, acid-etched, gold-encrusted cup and saucer (which shall be yours someday). https://external-content.duckduckgo....jpg&f=1&nofb=1 A blessed day to you, Dear, and I send you much love. |

It's called.... (drumroll)... the flu. The flu infects millions annually and kills ~1% of those infected. 1% is based on the high estimate of those infected and dead in the US from the CDC website, 0.5% would be the low estimate (scientists cannot count all people who have the flu because not everyone who has the flu visits a doctor). On the other hand, according to the statistics provided by WHO, the death rate as of today is 3% for China and 1% for countries not called China. This is the equivalent of the flu's high estimate, because while we can be pretty sure everyone who dies of coronavirus is recorded (due to all the hype around it), there may be people whose symptoms are light enough for them not to suspect they have the coronavirus. So, extrapolating from the flu high and low estimates, we can guesstimate that the low estimate for the coronavirus mortality rate would be 1.5% for China and 0.5% for places not named China. This proves that (a) God hates the Chinese three times as much as He hates other nationalities and therefore (b) for everyone who does not live in China, the coronavirus is roughly as deadly as the flu. In the US, that means we have much higher chance of dying from heart disease, cancer, accidents, respiratory diseases, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, and diabetes, than from the coronavirus. P.S.: I believe the point (a) above explains what I think about the proposition in Brother Larry's opening post. :innocent: |

Thank you for putting this in proportion as far as we are concerned, Sister, and for the helpful link.

Now let's look at our local areas. The town nearest to our property has a population of a little under 7,000 people. It would take mass immigration at a quite unusual level for the place to have enough people for anyone to catch it, and frankly there isn't enough room to get the population up anywhere near 584,000.
