Fake news. Every single company has similar restrictions with their products and trademarks. Going back like forever, even police departments rarely allow their logos to be used. LAPD almost never does (since cops are rarely portrayed positively in TV and movies). Last time LAPD allowed AFAIK was back in the 80's with the show Hunter with Fred Dryer. Usually you'll see a police uniform say just police or "Metro Police" on their shoulder patches rather than the name of the department. The bad guy thing is rather silly. I liked Amazon's evil overlord Alexa ad where he accidentally vaporizes his employees. I laugh every time I see that ad. "Oopsie." I'd buy a phone that bad guy used (but not a creepy Alexa).

What happened 30 minutes ago? Down from almost 298 to 290.

Ugh, what profoundly retarded shareholder asked Tim Cook about the Friends reunion show? Jesus H, sometimes we need to be reminded why we don't let stockholders run the corporation. And yes this coronavirus business is totally overblown. Double bonus for the Fake News media, a clickbait crisis story with a zing-Trump cherry on top. There's a Virus Spreading in U.S. That's Killed 10,000: The FluYou're far more likely to be killed driving to CVS to buy a mask.
But futures are red again because people are dumb scared animals.

So, 1 in 49 persons die with corona virus. 1 in 1,900 persons die with the flu Am I correct?

So, 1 in 49 persons die with corona virus. 1 in 1,900 persons die with the flu Am I correct? I don't think we can trust the numbers from a closed, authoritarian society like China. They are literally throwing people into camps. Would you walk into a hospital if you were sick if you thought your whole family was going to be taken away? So I think only the very sick are seeking treatment in PRC, which probably leads to sicker people and higher death rates. Also, novel outbreaks tend to "skew to the severe" because they aren't being tracked yet like seasonal flus that they know are coming. But the numbers in South Korea, there have been about 1600 cases and 12 deaths (3/4 of a percent). Korea is a more open and modern society so I think the numbers there will tell us more. Probably a more important stat is the basic reproduction number, R0. Also too early to tell.
At some point, someone is going to make some money buying this dip.
