Apparently it's a selective virus. Foxpup and khaled0111 are infected, so far everyone else in this thread is ~~safe~~ symptom free.

I wasn't at first; I must have caught it from khaled0111. That confirms it; theymos apparently thinks it's funny to joke about a disease outbreak that (by my guesstimate) will probably directly kill at least a million people and sicken tens or hundreds of millions, and indirectly kill or sicken millions more who have unrelated illnesses that will be left untreated due to medical facilities being overloaded. Many if not most of the survivors will personally know someone who was affected, some will know the pain of losing a loved one and not be allowed to hold a proper funeral due to quarantines, and all will face a grim future filled with new social, economic, and political problems. I'm not entirely sure what's so funny about that, but I guess that's why I'm not a comedian. Undecided

to be honest I feel like this April fools is not meant to be a joke but a reminder from theymos that the virus can spread quickly without practising social distancing and he only launch it today since a lot of people are expecting something to happen on April 1st on this forum.
