I dont think David has problem wiping his arse. I still get kinky funny video clip to start my day every morning. I on the other hand have just strained my back severely practicing night time maneuvering anti-corvid style.
 
The worst part of all this is that in place of real Leaders all the career bureaucrats running ineffective government agencies and their army ofmorons are in charge now. Just look at this Tedros guy director of WHO, I wouldn't let him wipe my ass even if I had two broken arms but he's the so called man in charge now. WTF are we allowing to happen to us like a good herd of sheep!

david
Even if he brings the TP to do it?

If this is handled correctly everything could be back to normal in 3-4 month.
The Chinese did i, so can we !

1. IF, handled correctly ...
2. Depending of each country (preparedness, equipment, enough supplies, healthy staff, ...) and each person's state of awareness and responsible action ... everyone ...
3. Lagonda, I don't know if we can rely on China's time frame, plus all the draconian measures they took; I doubt it ...
4. We, who; Europe, Canada, USA, South America, India, Russia, Italy, North Korea, Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, UK, France, Japan, ...???

* My own personal guess: We're in it deep till the next twelve months, minimum. We, the world.

Where is Anna Nicole when you need her :rolleyes:
Didn't she shack up w another guy needing a helping hand as well?
However she's not exactly available.
 
Marmota, your posts all describe practice that's beyond appalling. It's a real shame that this, and those totally unthinking "citizens" who are aggressively hoarding, will probably not have kharma visit them.

That's one of the sad things, but the other is asking: why they do it?
We're talking about places with 400-500 people each one, all of them go to the supermarket to buy food, of course. The risk of spreading the virus even more is incredibly high. Then they say: clients are more important than the virus...but how are they going to sell something if a large part of the population is dead, largely by their fault if this continues without a change? No people=nothing to sell.
I truly wish this is only extreme incompetence and mental health issues by them, and not some shady, money driven conspiracy (context: pensions are practically exhausted in Spain at the moment...)

UK seems to be as unprepared as US. I wonder, what BoJo have been doing for the past 2 months? China gave UK time, only for BoJo to blow it.

By now BoJo experimental plan has basicly colapsed:

For one, Brits just won't take to being ordered to stay indoors Wuhan-style. The French love rioting, and Macron is just about to enforce societal quarantine, and is already adept at using the full force of riot police, but the Brits are just not open to this. Not an option.

When you then throw in our woefully underfunded NHS, Boris is juggling the most critical consideration of timing on escalating advice.

However I totally get the incredulity on all this.
 
We all could learn so much from Taiwan and President Tsai Ing-wen on viral crisis management. She foresaw and was one step ahead of almost everything that should be taken care of eventually. The kind of leader I need for my country.

Believe me - they will. They are about to start a super intensive course.

They have been very well prepared. They have been caught off guard with SARS back in 2003. But it seems they have learned their lesson.

Once large numbers of people start dying (even if they are “only “our parents and
grandparents) things will change !
 
The Covid 19 crisis is both a health and an ecomic crisis
Macron announced last night that no company in France would be allowed to collapse because of it. Estimated cost 300bn euros.
Scandinavian states have announced a raft of measures to guarantee 80% or thereabouts of people's incomes.
British Government will announce new finance/economic measures tomorrow pm.
Reports here that US Govt will announce huge financial aid package of up to $800bn tomorrow
To be successful they will need to help individuals and not just companies.
A number of newspaper reports here that companies should not be given free bailouts and that stockholders should have to pay. Not necessarily unreasonable but won't help the stock exchanges.
 
It's true Barry. We've turned overwhelmed hospitals into a world fuck-over.

Sounds like it is time to buy stock in companies that make money printing presses.
