Passengers stuck in long lines for immigration at DFW



This man is the global authority on the spread of disease.

I'm starting to feel a bit uneasy.


When I see the news/instastories from my pals in Bratislava, there is an admirable level of discipline with people, everyone prefers to stay indoors, and if needed, they wear facemasks or scarves. Schools closed, bars closed, fitnesscenters closed, everything as it should be.


But here in Switzerland? Nobody gives a flying FUCK. I am unlucky enough that my roomate is a bar owner and every night works in a bar downstairs. Swiss government passed a regulation that only bars/cafes with attendance up to 50 people can be open. But how the hell is this logical? Be it 25 or 12 or 5 or 60 or 7000 people together, the virus can spread.



I even can't get out this shithole now. Fortunately we can be on home office, so it's good, but I need my groceries and stuff + the flat can be contaminated if the roommate is a carrier.


Well, I guess, this will be a lesson for humanity. Stay safe, my friends.

so since my last post here on 11th., where we had 10 cases confirmed, it went up to 54 cases (most of them have travel anamnesis if not all). today is what, 15th.? still good ratio on 5 mil. inhabitants. strict rules applied now. grounded flights, borders shut, 14 days mandatory quarantine once coming back from abroad, pretty much empty streets. still working from office, half of my colleagues working from home, we should swap next week. most of the people took it responsibly and not hanging around unless really needed. it seems like bye bye to Lee Ranaldo's gig next month in Austria. Im not sure whats the story with my trip to Scotland in May or Primavera Sound in Barcelona in June. hope it will be over by then, but u never know. Spain starting to be something similar to Italy, well not yet, but good few cases confirmed.

Spain is on a bad track, so is UK and France ...


Hope we'll make it to Primavera, man.

2nd death confirmed today here in vienna. shops, restaurants, bars etc. closed - grocery stores, drugstores still open. Police supposed to control people on streets by tomorrow. government telling people to stay home and absolutetly minimize social contacts.

I'll work for another couple a days at the closed restaurant to preserve all the fresh food we still got (drink all the open wines)... but mostly home isolation here. it's wicked.

Slavo, take care... Switzerland seems to have crazy numbers of new infections right now..

Swear I wanna stab the morons who decided panic buying toilet roll, milk and bread was essential. Least there was enough wine so we're ok there.

damn, slavo.

best thing you can do now for your immune system is RELAX.

i know it’s hard for you to do but yeah.

hang in there. maybe get free drinks from the rommate :D

Just checked for South Dakota.


"As of March 15, there are nine coronavirus cases in South Dakota."


"More than 325 tests have come back with negative results."


So at least the people who felt need and reason to get tested, for the most part, are coming back clean from this specific case.


Obviously doesn't mean it's gone/not here, just potentially the wrong people getting checked.

Of course they have

Of course they have

Schools are now closing too over here, so are sports clubs and bars and restaurants. And as of tonight
coffeeshops as well. Which led to long queues everywhere. :D The top picture in that article is my local shop.

Bars were still open here but already closed in Belgium, so many Belgians came to party last night in our southern cities.

Restaurants are closed, but home delivery is still possible, my New York Pizza is on its way :rolleyes:

Stay safe y'all!

I hope too.

:D :D :D

It was announced during a press conference at 17:30 that they would be closing at 18:00 which explains the sudden last-minute rush to stash up for the coming three weeks

(I quit smoking weed since August btw)

The shut down continues. After cancelling all activities involving a 5000 people crowd, after lowering the level to events of 100 or more people, it's every cultural activity that has been shut down.

Yesterday the prime minister said: all that ain't necessary will be closed.

Banks... bakeries, food suppliers, supermarkets, chemists can open. Restaurants are closed. The impact will be huge on them. Sent support to a couple of pizzerias in small towns. The owner of the one that sets up gigs in his place, hopes he'll be allowed to deliver. But I doubt it.
Restaurants have food supplies that will be wasted. One way of supporting would be to trade with them to help them face a quarantine, I've read.
Prudence asked for.
Yet...
The government didn't stop this day's city hall elections. And what do we have? In Rennes (220 000 people), abstention rose to 60%... What does that mean?

im ready to hunker down for about 3 months. i have a holy trinity of coconut oil, protein powder, and vitamin supplements lololol. i mean, if the shit hits the fan (which i don’t think it will) i got the basic blocks covered and can go keto.

and oh yeah, if you’re worried about asspaper (you shouldn’t) maybe look into getting yourself a wudu bottle. ;) thanks, islam!

nice one.

Halt your lives for a little while, basically.


Forecast: Cabin fever pretty soon.

Would farming myself out as a babysitter count as cynical profiteering?
