YAY!
During the Second Punic War, Hannibal crossed over the Alps and immediately inflicted heavy losses on Rome in the battles at Trebia and Lake Trasimene. Fabius Maximus, the Roman dictator at the time, realized that ordinary tactics would not be sufficient to defeat Hannibal, and adopted a new strategy of harassing Hannibal with small skirmishes and removing his supply lines, hoping to slowly wear him down. Many Romans saw this as effeminate and unmanly behavior, and Fabius was removed from his post. The Romans again opted to engage Hannibal in the field, and proceeded to suffer their most severe losses of the war at Cannae.
If we look at the fight against Corona as akin to that war, then we’re about at the point of kicking Fabius out the door. Will be interesting to see if we have a Cannae moment later this spring…and if it gets us back on the Fabian track.
I’m sorry but I don’t see any similarity between the Chink flu and the Punic Wars.
Too dumb to grasp the comparison, eh?
No Irish need comment here, potato nigger.
@Irish Nigger: I think the chink flu virus has a lot more in common with the Battle of the Somme in 1916.
Shit-head.
The comparison itself is idiotic beyond description.
Try thinking a little harder.
Asthma sufferers with the preventer inhaler on hand might have a slight edge here. The pneumonia is caused by an immune system in over reaction to the RNA virus. The Beclometsone family of drugs are a mild immunosuppressant that reduces mucus production.
I was really hoping for about 100M deaths – a lot of Boomers and Blacks – some Mexicans and poor, obese White Trash.
