Re: <nettime> coronavirus questions

[John Young <jya@pipeline.com>]

Out of an abundance of caution tabulate coronavirus infections and 
deaths daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, arithmetically, geometrically, 
locally, nationally, globally, compare to horrendous predecessor 
epidemics and pandemics, confess fear and rotely propound "courage is 
contagious," prowl news and social media to shriek, shame, blame, 
ridicule, aggregate medical data for peddling books, articles, 
speechs, fora strutting and tut-tuting, endorse and castigate 
nostrums for prevention and cure, design and invent topical posts, 
essays, performances, costumes and market advisories, deploy to 
photograph empty streets, shopping malls, stadia, airports, landmarks 
showing a solo human in a facemask, or a shot of a virus victim 
bundled in cocoon on a gurney or hospital bed entubulated to the 
maximum, or spraying and wiping crews, or political goofballs 
pretending to be gravely serious about how to cosmetically embalm 
illness of the stock market. Rage and praise Alex Jones and Hannity, 
Fauci, CDC, WHO, POTUS, order online and pig out, rue paid absence 
from numbing labor.
