Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
My fault. I misunderstood your post that people think the government should be doing more of everything. I interpreted it as “everything”. I hadn’t read where anyone thought that. You were responding to the article about poor testing. I read into your post without the context and didn’t pick up what I believe to be the sarcasm. My fault. Don’t want to put words in your mouth. I can find enough to debate about here without doing that.wgdsr wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 10:45 pmyou're trending into mdlax territory for making ish up. have to say it's disappointing.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 10:43 pm Some recommendations in 2009....

Boeing had 100 years of experience in designing airplanes. How'd the last plane do? Past performance is no guarantee, and all that....
Sure. And that's more than a fair point. But you're still leaving out the free market fail part of the equation. Although it would be fitting if this was more political corruption at work.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
I'm just asking that you save your challenges of my "misrepresent"ing you for when you specifically think I've done so and address me directly. As I've said, it's never been my intent to "misrepresent" you or your views, I'm generally just trying to parse your meaning and sometimes I've indeed taken you the wrong way. But never my intent to get it wrong.wgdsr wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 11:42 pmand as i've said before, i'd appreciate it if you didn't misrepresent what i say. then again, i have had about enough of it and am gonna pick up the habit!MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 05, 2021 11:27 pmwgdsr, I'd appreciate it if you'd save any disagreements with me when I'm actually in the discussion.

From the above, looks like some sarcasm crept into the back and forth from various posters, including you, and views got pretty muddled in all that. Glad I wasn't part of it on this one.
If I haven't wished you a Happy New Year yet, let me do so now...hoping you and yours have a great 2021!

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
“The government will begin to consider declaring a state of emergency in Tokyo and its neighboring prefectures,” Suga said Monday during the first news conference of the year. “New cases have not declined. On the contrary, they continue to climb which means stronger measures are necessary.”Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Wed Jan 06, 2021 10:02 am https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2021/ ... claration/
On Thursday, the nation logged a record-breaking 4,520 new cases of COVID-19. Two days later, a formal request was submitted by the four governors calling on the central government to declare a state of emergency to stop the virus from spreading further.
Compared to over 200k in US per day. Japan is at a total rate of 1,964 cases per million pop, US is 65k per million pop. 29 deaths per million pop compared to 1,001 deaths per million pop in US.

Holiday effect now kicking in.
Daily case rate well above 200k, looks like headed north to 300k on steep trajectory.
Just broke 4k deaths in a day for first time.
