Thread Name: BS: New rules for the coming pandemic
Subject: RE: BS: New rules for the coming pandemic
did i say magic up? I think more like trials, in a country where they have been producing them in large scale. I did not say huge fleets. How should bodies be handled? How should they be disposed of and how quickly? How many more places can afford to have their entire fire department on lockdown. How many hospitals have medical staff on quarantine? Sorry for looking foolish and inspiring ridicule from rude people but we all should be looking at every aspect of this and providing ideas, no matter how silly they seem. Some good ones will emerge. For example, how do you get 400 kids' hands washed perhaps coming and going to school? That is a big one. Wipes, I suppose, but they are in short supply...but we certainly could make our own soapy water ones.

Let me add to what planet do I live on. One where the quarantined?? cruise ship now in California is due to dock at a port very near me..and I doubt it will arrive, and if it does, I doubt they will be let off the ship..but if they are, they will mingle with a small town and that is how it goes.

and rude person #3 or whatever you are, I think a country that makes self driving cars could certainly provide five or six as gifts..https://fortune.com/2020/01/07/elon-musk-tesla-gigafactory-shanghai-china-ceremony/ and could ramp up to large fleets if necessary. The more robotic devices that are used for transport, patient care, room cleaning, waste disposal (have we heard anyone talk of this?) food production in these cases, the better for now..
