Fever gone miraculously after that one hellish Sunday night. My lungs are clear but I am still waiting on results for the Covid test. Just have a terrible itchy cough right now.
Thanks for asking, stay well .
No, no it doesn't. The issue isn't catching it at the airport, it's spreading it from an infected area to a non-infected area.
My parents live on an island province with few or no infections. If no people come in, they won't get infected. Large city infections will make country averages smooth out, but places are largely spread out and desolate, so isolation still works if you don't ignore travel restrictions.
tl;dr it makes sense for ANY country to prevent more spread and infections.
Canadian dollar is being raped.
Just sell USD/CAD and you will be millionaire if it goes back to 1.30
Eu Is only 26 country, Who are the other 24? 😂
I think you not understand how to count death in Italy and Milan, Bergamo, Brescia It s end coma bed
If you don't understand what I wrote, Try using google translate, these are just data not controversy (che nel caso non significa controversie)
Well, it IS a backward and disorganized country. But at least it has a two-weeks headstart on other backward, disorganized countries when it comes to taking measures.
Laypeople (including politicians) should refrain from giving advice or hazarding guesses on complex, life-or-death topics such as statistics, infectiology or epidemiology: these are counter-intuitive scientific fields whereby being ill-advised equals being ill.
Greetings from the backward disorganized country next door: confinement day 2

SF one step ahead lol ...
San Francisco rules cannabis dispensaries are 'essential businesses'
EDIT2:
Tesla factory? Eh, not so much ...
Tesla has to shut down its Fremont factory, Sheriff says
Markets look set to dive significantly today in the US. The level of volitility occurring now is more significant than the great depression.
US markets hit a circuit break trigger today which caused a 15 minute pause in trading. This is the 4th or 5th time that's happened in the past two weeks.
More pain in the financial markets happening.
British pound is at lowest level since 1985. God save the queen!
This is madness
The amount of stockpiling here is insane.
However, on a brighter note although I'm not qualified to treat people alternatively offering digital assistance I have been fairly productive in leading a team to expand capacity from 100 users up-to 2,000 remote working for hospital staff for those who can do their function from home. Everyone now appears to be incredibly busy in any sort of food/medical/hospital/government related disciplines.
Grocery stores in South Florida, where I live, are well stocked after an initial run down of stocks this past weekend.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKKK.
My main employer is American, so us Canadians are a super bargain compared to local American engineers (so we cost them less now), but I buy a lot of shit in USD, so my costs just went up. Hopefully, things will stabilize as my annual plans come up for renewal.
What about Mr. Trump? Is he infected as predicted by Bart Simpson?
Every currency is down against USD. Terrible times.
The idea seems to be breaking the spread chain with 100% accuracy for 21 days!
India seems to be having very tough times ahead.
Buddy, how's it going in Italy now?
Here's the news, the doctors were saying who lived and who died.
What's this now? The Simpsons is eventually always right, so...
When many smart people (sarcasm) think this is just the flu (1.5 months ago) I am stockpile almost everything and its worth it.
Just read a really interesting article on Bloomberg. Essentially it is saying that 99.2% of the patients who have died in Italy had preexisting conditions:

We, Sri Lanka a 3rd world country. People with Corona are hiding from police. People are efing crazy. Everyone is ordered to work from home.
My job is kinds secure but who knows for how long.
Local currency is going to worth shyt in a couple of weeks.
Why are they hiding?
Probably don't want to get quarantined and worried about what kind of treatment or facility they are going to get ....
Basically in developing countries people are afraid and don't trust their Government
But they don't have GFW, they can use phone to record things and publish them.
most of the infected are workers returning from Italy... They are rich... They dont want to leave their comfy homes to basic facilities in Quarantine centres.
The problem is - if they have something bad to record - that means that they are experiencing it first hand. And nobody wants to sacrifice themselves for a video. Specially if they are actually sick.
