      the start of another epidemic :s

      It is like people clearing the chips aisle at the supermarket. It is guaranteed slower path to the hospital. You just hope it doesn't put you in the hospital at the same time with COVID patients. Double trouble!

      They already found another virus in China, https://www.indiatoday.in/science/story/hantavirus-man-dead-…

      CAN YOU JUST STOP!

        The main thing to read in the article is "it turns out, hantavirus is not a new virus and has been infecting humans for decades"

        • checkingthisout on 26/03/2020 - 11:39

          "Humans may become infected with hantaviruses through contact with rodent urine, saliva, or feces, or by consuming rodent meat."

          Main take away is, stop eating this sh** in dirty meat markets.

      How bizarre, considering wildlife trade is largely the cause of COVID-19 and most outbreaks.

  • morediscount on 26/03/2020 - 10:02

    why would someone even charge for this ?

      They thought they could until they couldn't

        Just read that in the voice of the movie trailer guy from the 90s

          Search YouTube for 'little tortilla boy'.

    • inamberclad on 26/03/2020 - 10:27

      probably because they need to pay for employees/contractors (journalists, scientists) to do research and write the articles?

  • currentfad on 26/03/2020 - 11:15

    🤔

  • JF on 26/03/2020 - 11:17

    It's a shame NewsCorp is still keeping all their coronavirus related stories behind a paywall at this stage, given most local news in Australia has been bought by them.

      Most people don't have a good enough BS filter to cut through the rubbish mixed with the fact. Sometimes it is better to be in the dark than under bad light! Social media is even worse than mainstream media. Misinformation spreads like wildfire. Take notice of official regulations announcements and comply for the sake of family and friends. Take everything else you read and hear with a dose of salt. Think about the writer's motivations and the likelihood the person is spreading alarm (e.g. to help get more clicks and more profit). That doesn't omit ABC or SBS whose reports often have political spin (e.g. current government cuts their funding and puts a tight lid on their pay packet compared to other public media).

      In the spirit of OzBargain, if you want to get past a paywall try copying the link into an incognito window. It works with a lot of paywalls but I'm not sure whether this trick works with News Corp web pages. Another potential paywall bypass is available using the Close & Clean extension. It needs to be configured to clear everything. Copy the link, run Close & Clean, paste and enter.

      Unfortunately, it seems to lose its configuration between updates. Periodically, you need to check extension options.

        Doesn't work for news corp, their default is to block content unless signed in to a paid account. Not quite like the age which is easy to bypass

    • bchliu on 26/03/2020 - 17:44

      Keep the sensationalist fear mongering fake news to be free. Real news is paid for behind the paywall. Typical News Corp.

  • dlakers3peat on 26/03/2020 - 11:17

    That's all we need.

    It's not just for looking at topless tribal chicks.

    National Geographic's expertise in factual, science-based

    That used to be true, but now they have been taken over by woke, politically correct SJWs, who are more interested in saying what "ought" to be true.

    Facts are racist, mkay.
