You should hope that your disaster of a president has some good advisors because the way he acts right now will only make it worse

I've been working from home for two weeks now... but I'm living in a post-apocalyptic Northern Italy so that's understandable Buon pomeriggio! Is it really as bad out there as the news reports indicate? If the news is to be believed it looks like us in blighty will be following suit soon enough. X It's quite bad. Everything is closed: pubs, restaurants, shops, etc. You can't leave your house except for buying food or medicines. If you go outside, you have to bring a certificate with you in which you state where are you going and why are you going there, just in case the police stops you. There are road blocks on major streets. It's surreal.

Fucking corona virus. My family and uncle were supposed to visit me in glasgow tomorrow but my dad just messaged me saying their trip might be cancelled... Finnish government has told everyone to avoid travelling and now some countries have started banning people from Finland entering the country so they might stay there after all. Okay they ended up cancelling it. Kinda shame coz they had been planning it for almost a year and I won't be living here after summer.

Listening to my playlist of favourite tracks from 1995 (a work in progress) on shuffle, and I got 'Some Might Say' followed by Radiohead's 'Lucky'. It was a strangely brilliant transition, like something off a Beatles album: two polar opposite but great tunes that go together as if they were recorded one after the other.

Insides I have from the main hospital in the north region of Portugal aren't exactly optimistic. It's a ticking time bomb until the number of cases reaches the level of Spain at the very least. And I must say the vast majority of goverments didn't act well. They all acted from a reactionary standpoint, when you really should act from a prevention one in situations like this. Now we are facing a situation where hospitals just don't have capacity to deal with the situation, it's just impossible, no matter where you are in the world (fucking hell Italy is like a fucking distopia right now, doctors actually choosing who's worth saving). Way too much time taken closing schools, shopping malls, suspending flights, quarantines in certain areas, etc. Having taken measures like this when the virus, in Europe, was still at low numbers would have maximized the chances of hospitals having their best efficiency possible in cases like cases, and slow down the spread.
All that wait only allowed the virus to spread which when coupled with the fact the common human is a fucking idiot that only realizes something is serious when it actually happenes to them (and then proceeds to panic with no regard for others in stuff like buying rations, etc) is a dangerous combination.
Now it's a matter of minimizing the spread and deaths, and deal with the economical fallout post that.

From what I understand from stallgoop.se, Bjorn isn't going outside Sweden anytime soon. More krona from the ATG. SHL also affected. That's why Bazire wasn't going over this week, 2 weeks quarantine later.

I wonder when they're going to come up with the vaccine (for the public I mean) and if there are any side effects. I don't think I'd be ready to take it right away since it'll be made in a hurry. Swine flu vaccine triggered narcolepsy for many so I'd prefer to wait and see with this one.

Just waiting for this to be turned into a Curb meme. Politicians should have to write their own speeches. Then they might actually think about the words that come out of their mouths, and maybe even act on them.

Dear Blabbermouth posters who post the toilet shit pic over and over: How old are you? 12? People like you are why I tend to think many metalheads are closed minded. Fuck you and your pic.

They already have vaccine and they are waiting for panic to be that high so that everybody would want to be vaccinated. And God knows what is in that vaccine, maybe some mind control shit. Is anybody mentioning this? Maybe I can become conspiracy theorist and make millions out of it :-) Then I could reunite Oasis :-)

In a way this apocalyptic chaos is kinda entertaining, distracts me from other stuff. I've laughed a lot reading posts from other people who're also taking it less seriously. It's great time for people watching and it's fun to read about all kinds of ridiculous stuff people are doing while being totally hysteric. Like who the fuck suddenly buys 6 months worth of toilet paper? Afaik corona doesn't cause diarrhea and I doubt you're going to spend the next months holed in your fucking flat without leaving anywhere.

Yep, I’ve got a holidayto Latvia booked for a week today - hoping it’s not cancelled. If so, I can add it to the list of flights being cancelled because of : - Snow - Volcanoes (the Icelandic one that exploded in 2010) - A pandemic virus!

It's for masturbation, because we can't have sex anymore because other person might have virus But fucking toilet paper, I can't believe it. We still have water ffs, even if we all have diarrhea, you can still take a shower and clean your ass.

The economic fallout from the hysteria will be disastrous, though. Yeah let’s stop the entire world economy..... 🧐
