I live in Italy and I am in quarantine
I'm already beyond the worry

@kiokoman So sorry, to hear. I know it's bad. In Midwest USA, fancy free. For today anyway. Hoping the food supply chain doesn't break down. Bars/restaurants/schools closed, most other stores open more or less. Waiting for the Internet to collapse from homeworkers.

kiokoman

we don't have any food problem for now but .. well numbers here are bad.. 26.000 infected, 2000 under icu and 2.500 already dead, they are big numbers in time of peace. we are also lucky that we have public health care

@kiokoman I hope you are far closer to the end than the beginning.

Allcopstan

absolutely no.

kiokoman

sadly no, it's still the beginnig especially if people don't understand that they have to stay at home and violate the quarantine

Unfortunately I think asking that question this time next year might be closer to reality.

Actually yes, it is not actually adding the number on daily basis.
this disease get the multiplier factor. (everyone should make sure to implement self isolation to overcome this disease)

I'm frankly surprised we haven't seen massive slowdowns and outages on the Internet. Even my domestic Comcast 300/20 line is still bursting to 340 with everyone streaming and working from home. Who needs 5g?

Fear is what's left when we abandon reason. So. Today. In Trumpistan. I'm scared sh*tless.

What's scare you the most in/about Trumpistan?

I see a lot of news here in Italy about the USA and the situation about coronavirus, is it that bad? the news is telling us that there are ppl on the road complaining / a lot of people that lose the job, long lines at the soup kitchen, isn't the government giving any financial help to families and preventing people from losing their jobs? lockdown without any sustenance?
