Yet mass transit are still running and schools remain open. Stupid excuse given for keeping schools open is that some students are on reduced meal plans and might go hungry if they close schools, displaying a total lack of priorities on the part of city officials. People are also swarming super markets now, and a lot of food products like rice have sold out. Can only imagine the spike in cases that these crowds will cause. My advice brother is to leave the city while you still can and hunker down somewhere in the suburbs! Even Westchester will be safer, just avoid New Rochelle!

Same thing in Australia. Very lax attitude so far. All schools still open unless a student was tested to have Coronavirus positive. Most people still not wearing masks as gov give priority to medical staff and whites here don't have a culture of mask wearing. F1 and big sports events was still scheduled to go in until just today when someone was rested to be positive.

Meanwhile our PM followed trumps televised national address and called the Coronavirus originating from China. Not to mention he ban travel from china and Iran as soon as he could but not from s Korea and Italy initially even though the situation there were clearly getting worse. Never ban Japan too

This quote describes the situation pretty well:


“This is what we did in Italy,” the writer continues. “We were so complacent that even when people with coronavirus symptoms started turning up, we wrote each off as a nasty case of the flu. We kept the economy going, pointed fingers at China and urged tourists to keep travelling. And the majority of us told ourselves and each other: this isn’t so bad. We’re young, we’re fit, we’ll be fine even if we catch it.... Fast-forward two months, and we are drowning'

At least I think Australia has better health care system.

Trump is on full distraction mode as I mentioned yesterday. Expect more of these as he do what he does best in times of chaos. Let's call it Chaos Management.

Absolutely, China put so much efforts in fighting this. The sacrifices the medics and others in contaning this is unimaginable.

On coffeein my friend, from Yigacheffe grinded and watered by myself. ;)
I wrote this in leisure time in 2 days.
Reason for such an effort is feeling sad and nervous for some forum members still not understand what is coming.
I have to tell guys what is happenning, why and what should we do.
Why write it here?
Well, people here are smart enough to not name me fearmonger sent by commies.

Chinese doctor squad arrives in Italy along with much needed supplies.

I am not sure if the doctors were from Beijing. What I heard is that doctors from Sichuan volunteered for the Italian mission. Sichuan still remembers when Italy sent aid and rescue missions to Sichuan following the devastating earthquake in that province.

Other aid and doctor missions have been sent to Iran, Iraq and Pakistan.

Xiaomi donates tens of thousands of masks to the Italian government.
