I haven't seen any effects, but I'm not looking for them. I'm not
hanging around hospitals and other locations where sick people are
likely to be.

If it's a hoax, even Trump bought it! Or is he behind it?

Mostly, people are just staying at home. It's probably a good idea for folks to continue staying at home for the next 4 months or so. What's going to happen is that people will think the coast is clear and prematurely emerge from self-isolation causing a second round of infections. My guess is that things will start to get back to normal in about 6 months. By "normal" I mean we can start to rebuild our economy at that time. My guess is that rfc will completely implode in 30 days. 😉

The good news is that my wife can get some free coffee from Starbucks until the end of May since she's a nurse. She went to a bakery this morning that was closing down because of this shitstorm. They might be able to reopen in a few months. My guess is that a lot of businesses will just decide to never open their doors again. The bakery made one of the darndest things I've ever seen - a cream puff wrapped in puff pastry.

But what if it's all a hoax? Organised by the Chinese, the Europeans,

the president of Brazil and the dictator of Belarus. Ophelia's on the

This is why I don't watch the news. I'll admit that I didn't watch the whole
video but... I know if a person is in the hospital, has had a test for the
virus, then dies, the virus is listed as the cause of death when it may or
may not be.

The opposite happens too, doctors say. Someone dies of corona, without
having been tested. They then don't count as a corona death.

There is a virus, yes. But it has killed less people than the flu, so far
this year. Do you ever hear reports of flu death? No. H1N1 killed more
people than this. Who knows. I'm not saying it's nothing. I do think they
are making things sound far worse than they are. Meanwhile, people are
starving and have no income.

I have many orders for food that I'm waiting for because these things could
not be found in the stores. Things like olive oil. That was supposed to
arrive on the 6th. Just got word that it would be delayed. My almonds? Could
take weeks to come to me. spend and spend and still no food.

Please note, I am not out of food. I'm not starving. I just want certain
things and can't get them.

The Chinese, the Europeans and the American Democrats want to control

By the way, in Australia, France, Germany, Belgium and the
Netherlands, the "curve is flattening". Not that it's over there, but
there is light at the end of the tunnel.

But when you hear healthcare workers from your own country talk about
numbers of people dying, intensive care being swamped, the prospect of
having to do triage, health workers getting burnout or PTSD etc, don't
you believe them?

The Queen's speech was a good one. It was short and uplifting. It was one that unified the UK. The chump's specialty is dividing the Republic and playing each side against one other. Americans are stupid enough to allow themselves to be played as suckers by our Russian asset chumpanzee. That's the breaks.

It's a hoax organized by the wealthy. They feel they have too much

They DO have those powers; they came into force nationwide on March
26th by Act of Parliament

https://www.sidley.com/en/insights/newsupdates/2020/03/covid-19-control-
measures--uk-police-powers

quote

"On 26 March 2020, these regulations were replaced with the Health
Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (England) Regulations 2020 (the
Regulations). The Regulations contain the rules relating to movement
restrictions and business closures announced by the Prime Minister on 23
March 2020. The Regulations allow the police to take action necessary to
enforce the new restrictions.

The restrictions apply during the ?emergency period? which started on 26
March 2020, the date on which the Regulations came into force in
England, Wales and Scotland, and will continue until terminated by a
direction of the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State will review
the need for the restrictions and other requirements imposed by the
Regulations at least once every 21 days, with the first review being
carried out by 16 April 2020."

Right. And many who have it were nervier tested so not counted. In some
cases, they were not allowed to be tested. In others, they just self
quarantined.

Yes. Also, some countries test a lot more than others. And the less
you test, the less you find. India does 102 tests per million people.
UK does 2880. Norway does 20,000.

I have disputed some images posted on FaceBook lately. They will have
an image of someone famous and then a quote about something. The
impression one gets is that the person actually said it. In several
cases I questioned it and could find nothing online to support it.

it is political misinformation designed to induce just exactly what
you asked. Then a particular far right political view wins. You
believe that the police state is not far away. The police in these
times get whatever power the local authority gives them to keep
everyone in order and safe.

right. You do know the requirements for getting the test, don't you?
And, of course, the doctors don't know what the hell they are doing
and pay no attention to underlying causes and never list them. You
need to get clued up or shut up

Makes no difference to me, I always stay at home... I suppose it
matters how one defines staying at home... I very rarely leave this
property and when I do it's only five miles into town on a two lane
road mostly through the woods, hay fields, and cattle pasture... once
a week I check my PO Box. On the same trip if need be Walgreens has a
drive thru. For my usual one or two bags of groceries if I phone Tops
ahead they will deliver it directly to my car while I'm parked just
outside their front door, same with my case of Crystal Palace. But I
prefer to enter the stores, it's rare there's more than 2-3 shoppers
at Tops and mostly I'm the only one at the liquer store. If need be
my doctor and dentist are on my way into town... I have an appt for a
cleaning this week but I doubt they are doing that, I'll phone to find
out. Still, Dee the hygienist is always gowned, gloved, and masked
anyway, and a cleaning is no emergency, I get two a year but I own a
toothbrush, toothpaste, and floss.

Staying at home is very easy for me, since I moved here I haven't been
more than 30 miles from my front door and that's rare, once a year
when I visit my Urologist so Linda can check my prostate. And I
already found out that my cataract surgery is on hold. Otherwise the
only traveling I'll be doing is by tractor while mowing, and I'll be
in an air conditioned cab and wearing a mask... a few years ago I
bought a slew of those N95 respirator masks from Amazon... weren't
deemed important then and were cheap. I keep some in the tractor and
always have some in my car for when farmers are spreading chemferts,
insecticides, and the pollen count is high... besides mowing is always
dusty so anyone mowing needs to be masked. However those disposable
paper masks are not even close to being real repirators, at best they
filter larger particulates/dust and will not protect from viruses or
any germs/fumes... a real respirator is much different, covers full
face; mouth, nose, eyes, and allows no outside air in without it being
filtered by special cannisters, actually a gas mask... I often wore
one where I worked at bnl.gov. Telling people to use a scarf is
insane. Those paper throw away masks are tantmonut to using a section
of panty hose as a condom. Were I buying a respirator for viruses it
would be this:

The main thing that annoys my wife about the virus is that she can't
play 18 holes of golf, so she and her girlfriend play 9, that's
because all the bathrooms along the course are now locked and they
can't last more than 9 holes... and ladies don't like to squat behind
a bush, especially this time of year as there are no leaves yet. They
will meet at the course today at noon, there's practically no one
there because only walkers are permitted now, carts are all locked up
now or they'd need to be constantly sterilized, plus the ground is
still too wet for carts anyway. The two of them don't get closer to
each other than 50+ feet, golf courses are huge acreage... playing 9
holes means they'll be walking more than 6-7 very hilly miles. My
wife has several friends here named Barbara, this is Pink Toilet
Barbara, her bathroom has all pink fixtures... I need to differenciate
all her Barbaras somehow. I ain't saying the nicks I have for the
others, use your imagination. She even has a friend who's our
insurance agent (cars & house) who nick named herself Betty Boop, has
a picture of Betty Boop on her business cards... of course I refer to
her as Betty Boobs, but yoose knew that. LOL
Thunderheart is one of the most scenic and challenging golf courses in
the northeast, was accquired a couple of years ago by Sunnyhill from
the fellow who built it as he retired... Sunnyhill is more a resort
than a golf course but the real estate abuts:

There is a young man in the hospital. He owns a great dane. I've been
watching the dog 2-3 times a week when he's at work same times as his
brother. Now he's with me for an unknown timeframe. Just got 100lbs
dog food for him.

Great Dane's name is Prince (common name for them).

It's no hoax. I know a lot of very sick people.

You don’t suppose that population has anything to do with that, do you?
Again, nobody knows sh*t, but the best are working on it, and more is
learned every day.
Maybe this nut-job is right.

Don’t forget the grocery stores. They’re the front line for me. So far.

So you fail to see the logistical problem between 1.4 billion people
(India) and say 5.5 million people (Norway). One billion is one thousand
million.
If I were you, I’d take a ship back to The Netherlands, take a taxi to
the old school and demand my parent's money back. The school did you no
favors.
When did they stop teaching geography in school? One can google population
in a few seconds. It is very meaningful right now.
Believe in China, Iran and N. Korea. Everything is under control. This is
just a dream.

It's better to compare the US (328 million) and Norway (5.5 million),
because they have a similar degree of development. Testing one million
Americans isn't harder than testing one million Norwegians just
because the US has a much larger population.

Your attempt to make me look stupid is backfiring.

Who on earth believes Iran and North Korea have everything under
control? Even Kim Jong-un says North Korea has a big problem.

Now, I’m thinking you should firebomb that school. Let’s compare square
miles and resources. Population centers should be compared. Again, I refer
you to geography. A big number for Norway is a tiny number for us and a
miniscule number for India. Why did you drag India into this. It made you
look silly.

Is it?

I must not be keeping up. I would appreciate a credible citation. Last I
heard, the KJU regime proclaimed that they had zero covid cases.
