you know...it was pretty much the same here, at first it was a joke then it became suddenly serious. But people responded remarkably so I think it's gonna be the same everywhere. We are not chinese we may have not their discipline and that kind of governement but when things get tough and health is at stake I think humans are inclined to do what is best and what they are told to do.
Btw... Good news I think today we hit the peak in Italy so it now starts a slow recovery. So I guess it's correct to count about 2 months from the start to the end of the outbreak, like it has been in China.

That's indeed good news, I hope we are able to save more people and things go back to normalcy from here.

It saddens me how many lives we lost even with the technology we have, this is nothing but negligence on our part.

This is the strongest statistical association I've seen w/ respect to the virus. Wear a mask, mandate others to wear masks, & remember that @WHO is criminally incompetent. To repeat:@WHO is criminally incompetent.

PS-Don't get into elevators, buses, etc. unless your mask in N95 https://t.co/ZCkl3hql9K

There's a new poll out from Grinnell College on American attitudes in response to the COVID-19 situation. It is interesting and worth a read (it was mentioned in the Washington Post, so when I clicked the link it took forever for their server to respond. They may be getting a lot of requests. I hope we don't crash it.)

I was proud of the response to this question:



I fully understand the "Stressed" choice, and the other negatives too, but the first two are still encouraging.

News on Canada

Their leader has announced some emergency response support for Cdns and small businesses effected:

1. 3 months waiving of mortgage payments - already in effect (?)
2. $2,000 per month for those laid off - 6 April
3. Small business support paying for 75% of wages - payable back to March

I notice their PM decides and it is done.
(No long debates in Congress and pork-belly riders )
People need the money now.

--------
Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy.
For indiviuals: Those receiving CERB or Employment Insurance (EI) need to show they are without work once a month. If you’re already getting EI, you don’t need to apply for CERB. . He says CERB is on track to be up and running for applications by April 6th, and you can apply through the government of Canada’s website. CERB offers a monthly $2,000 payment for a period of up to 16 weeks for those who wouldn't otherwise be eligible for Employment Insurance. Any Canadian who has ceased working for a 14-day period due to COVID-19 is eligible. That includes wage earners, contract workers, or self-employed individuals; those who've had to stay home without pay to self-isolate or care for loved ones; and anyone else who hasn't been permanently laid off but has stopped receiving pay cheques. (People with reduced hours and reduced income aren’t the target for CERB and do not qualify. Income must have dropped to zero.)
If you need assistance setting up direct deposit for CERB, you can call the CRA for help over the phone. If you opt for getting a cheque in the mail, the Prime Minister says you’ll get it within 10 days.By selecting direct deposit you should receive your payment within 3 to 5 days,”
----------
The Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB)
For Businesses: Businesses can apply for the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy through the Canada Revenue Agency’s (CRA) website. He repeated his call for businesses to top up wages not covered by the 75 per cent subsidy and threatened businesses that take undo advantage with stiff penalties.
Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy is launching in 3 to 6 weeks and funds will be available within 6 weeks after that. Businesses will need to show revenue fell 30 per cent in March, April, or May from the same time last year. They need to reapply each month.

The Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy will cost $71 billion and reduce the cost of CERB to $24 billion.

Statistics. Situation is not that bad. Its half as bad.

In Estonia average age is 77.
When 80 - 90 year old people die its " normal "

And when we won fight over COVID-19 we have even bigger fight in front of us.
Most of it is up to us.

Simplest solution with good impact. Stop smoking and drinking.



But no lets make even drugs legal. I really need my daily cannabis cigarette.

Yup, 10x greater chance dying in a car crash a mile from your home than from this. But don’t tell the internet. I’m filing for divorce from the media over this. They won. They got themselves months of 24-7 job security. And I am declaring bankruptcy from Covid 19 coverage. I give up, I cannot take anymore. I’m moving on.

We live in a world now where the value of human life is so high, and gets higher each generation, and certainly that’s the way you want it but the downside is you overreact to everything, and personal freedom takes a big hit. My parents are both close to 80, and while they are in excellent health for their age they are also in one of the biggest at risk groups. I’ve told them they need to just stay in for now, and they know, but now I’m hearing intermittent shut ins for the next 12-18 months, and I don’t think I can comply with that.

More Statistics.

The latest numbers (4/2/2020) from Johns Hopkins University:

50,000 + deaths world-wide
981,000 + confirmed cases world-wide
226,000 + confirmed cases in United States alone, by far the current world leader

I didn't give the precise numbers because growth is increasing, which will soon make these out of date anyway. There is also a lag in the data due to testing and reporting issues.
