Corona virus

Watch the second video specifically. 26 year old, no underlying conditions. Two nights' hospital stay after initially being untested and turned away by a GP. She would have been *very* ill if she hadn't been able to get into hospital. As it is, her symptoms at home were definitely worse than 'flu-like'. Shortness of breath and vomiting are, typically, straight-to-hospital symptoms.

So you are prepared to live in caves then? Got any in your region?

Plenty, and millions of others will join. The great news is, all I gotta do is start farming goats to acquire the skill set to defend myself.....lol!

Funny you'd say that. We found some beers in the garage the other day. Leftover from a rather disastrous NYE party. The labels were all mildewed, really gross.

The beers? A bunch of Asahi Super Dry and one lone Corona.

Yeah, that joke came and went weeks ago. As did Come On Eileen.

Essential service providers should be given a bonus either during, after or both.

We need to do a lot more than that and way more than congress is arguing about....a lame $1000-$1500 per household. If Congress covers lost wages at 85-100%, people will continue to consume goods & services + pay their bills and maybe stave off great depression part 2. That lessens the strain on businesses across the board. Then, double pay for all essential service providers who are out in war zone.

Of course they won't. They'll unlimited QE Wall Street and leave main street and small business out to dry like 2008. We'll be super lucky if this passes without mass violence, deaths by suicide and other things great depressions bring about.

Onward and upward!

Japan is very likely going to get a second wave soon. At least Abe finally realised his 2020 Olympics weren't happening. But they came out of lockdown too quickly, and what lockdown they did have wasn't severe enough -- you saw the picture I shared from Harajuku a weekend ago.
