Imagine the poor family at this awful time??
We are going fairly well here in Australia with a population of 25 million, 4,800 cases but only 21 deaths. We have one of the highest testing ratio to population in the world which allows for finding those infected really early and quaranteening them early. There are 5,000 workers whose is to simply track every movement these infected people had for 14 days prior and getting every one of their contacts tested. Every worker who has been stood down and whose employer has had a 30% drop in income receive $750 a week gov payment, anyone renting is not allowed to be evicted and those paying a mortgage gets a 6 month reprieve from paying their mortgage.
Overall the infection curve is now flattening. Maximum of 2 people together, more if all from the same household but social distancing is enforced.
So we are going fairly well here in Australia

Also forgot to say... most of our cases are people returning home to Australia from overseas with very little number of cases coming from transmission within Australia
Lockdown day w/e: our kids are literally arguing over an A4 pad! ??
Just seen a news report about the stresses and strains of self isolation. It reported that people are going crazy from being in lock down!
It was strange, actually, because I had just been talking about this with the microwave and toaster and all of us agreed that things are getting bad. I didn't mention anything to the washing machine as she always has to put a different spin on everything, and certainly not to the fridge as he is acting cold and distant. In the end the iron calmed me down. She said everything will be fine, which surprised me because she’s usually the first one to apply unnecessary pressure and get steamed up over nothing !!! I think she might have been sneaking off to the medicine cabinet.

You know, on a tangent, I just heard today that the WHO predicts that depression will be the #1 disability by 2030!
He’s doing amazing! Impressive.

I hear this is like most of the UK, only in some areas are the police super anal-retentive and stop everyone and anyone. Probably when cameras are pointed at them and they have to work.I’ve got one from the department of tranport saying I can travel to and from work..tbh I haven’t seen the north wales police stop anyone and the roads are really busy still round here..I go to work come home stay in..the only police I see all night are sat at the side of the motorway in Manchester..don’t even see the motorway police stop anyone which I thought was the whole point of the extra powers they were granted..W..

wtf is this about gp's telling some patients that they would be do-not-resuscitate if they caught covid19? are gp's sending out letters?
Yes this is true.
Sadly I think it’s the correct course of action to take but a lot of people would disagree. It’s probably best to make it a bit more humane and comforting, but the principle is, in my honest opinion, correct. As sad as that is. X
would your opinion be different if you were on the list?
I signed a do not resuscitate form a few years ago, my choice and i stand by it , but i believe it should be the individuals choice not someone elses choice
