Real life doesn't operate like a Hollywood script.
Say the government disappeared overnight, don’t you think the citizens would at least try to establish some kind of order before killing each other? People are social creatures so I’d think it’s more likely they would group to form independent communities rather than going lone wolf. And those communities would soon be led by a younger person as older people succumb to the virus. Probably someone who had put in just enough effort to get by in life and didn’t care to be burdened with the responsibility of leadership so kept to himself and avoided opportunities for promotions but is also college educated which allowed him to enlist straight into an officer rank.

So NY has released nonviolent offenders nearing their sentence and, and wants to release parole violators, bailors, and more nonviolent offenders.

Chinese government data suggest the coronavirus began spreading as early as November, but it still can't confirm 'Patient Zero.'

Originally posted by Roy View PostThat only shows that the virus has been traced to a patient on Nov 17th. It doesn't mean that the Chinese Government "knew how infectious this was in November".
I am not sure how well accepted the Nov 17 date is, I thought the December date was more commonly accepted among the epidemiologists.

I can't tell if you're trolling here or merely utterly clueless. Murders in Baltimore skyrocketed after the police merely drew back some. And officers aren't enlisted.
I'm always still in trouble again

How do skyrocketing murders in Baltimore show that people wouldn’t be grouping up to form small communities? Led by a young officer?

Originally posted by simplicio View PostHa! The communist Chinese are geniuses, able to figure out everything about this virus in no time flat, while the American scientists are dumbfounded, unable to learn much. Then in the next breath, the same posters insist how less advanced the Chinese are, how less capable they are in handling things, how the communist system doesn't work.

In China, it was known, or strongly suspected, to be infections on Dec 30th. It was officially announced to be infectious on 20th Jan, but there were suspicions and warnings much earlier.Jorge: Functional Complex Information is INFORMATION that is complex and functional.
