Francesca Cipriani 1,668 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) I really think the world will never be the same again. Sometimes I doubt that it will be possible to get out of this crisis, it is impossible. Contagions continue to rise rapidly all over the world, and we know only about the sick people, but there are many people who have no symptoms, and who can pass the virus at any moment without knowing it. How do you control these people? it's impossible. To be sure of eliminating the virus, you should test all the people of the world. Maybe right now I have the virus and I don't know it because I have no symptoms. And then I think about the economic consequences...

Its almost an identical virus except it came from a small mammal! and now China is threatening to not share the cure with the rest of the world... smh Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JoeMo 3,119 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I work in Scotland for the NHS as a speech therapist. We have been doing clinics and schools as usual but as of tomorrow all routine clinic services are being halted. That means I will most likely be placed elsewhere to support other services wherever that may be. I could be porting in hospitals or manning receptions - who knows, but I’m very keen to support the NHS in any way I can during this time. www.youtube.com/jmremixes 2 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

duskball 496 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Guys be safe and take this seriously. I’m stuck in El Salvador with my brother who has cerebral palsy and we aren’t allowed to leave cause the airports were shut down. I don’t have enough equipment for the 15 days they shut it down so we have to be careful. My flight was for tomorrow and now I can’t leave. I tried to leave early and was straight up told no. I don’t care about me but my brother means the world to me. This is affecting a lot of people. Just please be smart and safe 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ice bear 1 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Guys i'm so worried I'm staying safe but having to stay home is agravating my anxiety problem so much Whenever i read something about corona i start seeing symptoms in me, and my breathing starts going irregular and i start to shake. I have no immediate reason to be concerned as my area has minimal contagion so far and i'm taking care of myself and staying home most of the time But then i start thinking my dad is still working, and i don't know who he works with, and he's at the age of risk, and also yesterday i went to another neighbourhood to buy some things and i don't know who could have been there I'm so worried i might infect my cats as well as it is not really clear yet if the disease can trasmit to pets and what if the horders empty the resourcers on the grocery stores? then GGD was down for second and it's so conforting to have you guys to talk to i kinda freaked out when it did I know it's about my mental health but it's been scary, please stay safe everyone. ice heard one side from above 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B2theRich33 1,100 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 So I’ve been fine with all of this... that is until Monday. On top of my partner going through a major depressive spell and not wanting to take control of his mental health no matter how much I beg and plead him, I’m the only one bringing in income to support us and our small furry family. I’ve been to the store twice to stock up in case we end up in a lockdown (where I am in the USA there are no reported cases... yet) and have dropped $500. I’m still going to work and managing everyone and everything there because our owner refuses to close and thinks rubbing essential oils and drinking fire cider will keep everyone safe (a conversation for another day!). My mom is in a lawsuit with my dad and her lawyer is requesting all this documentation from me to provide as evidence and most of the offices I need to go to have closed already as preventive measure and have no way of getting contact with them. I get paid on Thursday but because I had to cut into my funds for what’s going on I know for a fact I can’t pay all the bills this month. and to top it off my dog has been throwing up and vomiting profusely for the past 4 days and after dropping $600 on her vet visit today I’m praying she gets better quickly because I’ve been up all night with her now taking her out every 30 min. ive been managing good for now, but I’m hitting a point. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TOSK 640 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 CDC analysis shows coronavirus poses serious risk for younger people Early data analyzed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows that younger Americans are at substantial risk of experiencing serious medical problems from the coronavirus sweeping the globe. That data runs counter to some of the early messaging from public health officials in other parts of the world........ https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/488325-cdc-data-show-coronavirus-poses-serious-risk-for-younger-people Quote Link to post Share on other sites
