Portugal. I guess we are lagging behind a bit, about 250 cases so far, nothing compared with Spain. But still, the measures taken are almost as strong and disruptive (which is good in a way). People are so worried, they are probably not very productive at work, anyway. And what to do with all the kids at home? This is not a condition we can tolerate for 1.5 years.
I think we will see first medicines arriving in June 2020.
I agree about the new anti viral meds. Tamiflu was developed rapidly. At least you have an ocean breeze to clean the air somewhat.
The purpose of the cut in rates is to help ensure that banks have enough reserves to bolster the national payments system, and international payments based in USD.
But I would not write that in this the Political Theater and Other Cheap Entertainment Forum, and I would not write that even in the Economics forum, because even there very few would understand it.
Oh No! I saw this on facebook: If you ever wondered what to do with those mismatched socks in a pile, now is a good time to break them out and use them!
BUT: Don't flush them or we'll all be up s**t creek!
Have we lost our freaking minds? We are closing down the country for what, exactly? See this comment from Yahoo:
Korea never canceled anything, or told people to stay inside or work from home. As the virus winds down there, the tally is 0 people under 30 died. 2 under 50. Average age of death was 80, totaling around 79 people in a country of 51.5 million that borders China.
Your freedoms are being taken away from you, people!
Gov. Gavin Newsom called Sunday for all senior citizens and residents with chronic conditions to isolate themselves at home, as well as for all bars, wineries and brewpubs to close, launching the state's most sweeping effort yet to slow the spread of coronavirus.
No other state has imposed such restrictions on residents age 65 and older. Newsom said his orders do not come with enforcement but that he expects residents and counties to follow his protocols.
Wait a minute, why are seniors (like me) all of a sudden a major vector for spreading CV? It's the millenials not the boomers, who are at fault.
