Germany with 2k new cases today, still almost nobody dying there. USA is the 4th country with more new cases today, I have a feeling things are gonna go terribly wrong there in no time.

Merkel needs to let us know how she's doing it!
 
Gun sales rise as coronavirus fears trigger personal safety concerns

No need to say where that is :side-eye:
 
For a change from all the doom and gloom, on the PLUS side, it seems things are definitely beginning to slow down in China, and they're a few months ahead of us. So I think by summer time we should hopefully be over the worst of it. We'll get there.
 
Yes we just have to quarantine ourselves for 3 more months
 
I have a soar throat now, please tell me it’s not a fucking normal cold.

it's not. if you're sure that's what you want?

i have a sore throat too. one of the friends i spent yesterday with started coughing in the evening. it probably doesn't help that i've started smoking again and overdid that yesterday.
 
Fell asleep again and woke up now feeling better, no soar but slightly itchy throat. Should self isolate... I don’t want a normal cold, I’d rather have covid-19 and get it over with, but I guess you can’t really tell the difference.
 
I’ve got a fever now (according to my swine flu thermometer) and can’t sleep. I reckon I’ve got it.

Fell asleep again and woke up feeling nothing! Surely it can’t be Corona.

Same here. Just had that little tickle in the back of the throat for the last 2 days which is usually nothing. Took some paracetamol last night before bed and woke up with nothing.

Still have to go to work today. Our department has been classed as “Safety Critical” for some reason.

Our nursery has emailed to say they will still charge us for the first 4 weeks of any closure because they just won't survive otherwise :(
 
Anyway I saw this last night;


-China has closed down its last coronavirus hospital. Not enough new cases to support them.

- Doctors in India have been successful in treating Coronavirus. Combination of drugs used: Lopinavir, Retonovir, Oseltamivir along with Chlorphenamine. They are going to suggest same medicine, globally.

- Researchers of the Erasmus Medical Center claim to have found an antibody against coronavirus.

- A 103-year-old Chinese grandmother has made a full recovery from COVID-19 after being treated for 6 days in Wuhan, China.

- Apple reopens all 42 china stores,

- Cleveland Clinic developed a COVID-19 test that gives results in hours, not days.

- Good news from South Korea, where the number of new cases is declining.

- Italy is hit hard, experts say, only because they have the oldest population in Europe.

- Scientists in Israel likely to announce the development of a coronavirus vaccine.

- 3 Maryland coronavirus patients fully recovered; able to return to everyday life.

- A network of Canadian scientists are making excellent progress in COVID-19 research.

- A San Diego biotech company is developing a COVID-19 vaccine in collaboration with Duke University and National University of Singapore.

- Tulsa County's first positive COVID-19 case has recovered. This individual has had two negative tests, which is the indicator of recovery.

- All 7 patients who were getting treated for at Safdarjung hospital in New Delhi have recovered.

- Plasma from newly recovered patients from COVID-19 can treat others infected by COVID-19.

this all sounds very promising especially compared to what i just read about a vaccine being available in 12-18 months even though human testing has already begun.
 
some of the stuff in that post from @Star sounds a bit questionable to me?

India have treated it with a bunch of already available drugs? Italy hit hard only because its population is old, even though countries currently getting worse (like the Netherlands, France) have 50% of critical patients under the age of 50 or 60? hmmmm
