    It's a little fcuked up how many people keep popping up to push new arguments for throwing granny under the bus. We get it, you like money, don't think you're personally in danger, and don't give a **** about other people. The pro-life, anti-euthanasia conservatives in the states are particularly egregious with their 'the elderly would rather die than see the young suffer an economic collapse. BS.

    But at the same time we are not seeing footage of Army trucks picking up bodies or temporary morgues in Germany as we are for Spain and Italy
    I'd say the extra ICU capacity we have here (I'm in Germany) is just absorbing the problem still but without further lockdowns I still think the system will be overwhelmed, just not as soon as elsewhere.

    I know the system is under pressure at least locally. PPE is also becoming scarce (people are sewing facemasks for our local hospital, for example)

    My missus was at the doc today and the doc remarked to her that gloves are running out in the practice.

    There's no seeing the doc without an appointment any more. You have to knock and they let you in one by one.

    The discounters seem to have implemented social distancing by removing trollies and putting up signs that you must wait for a trolley to become available before entering the store, even if you only want a loaf of bread. Not sure if that's a good idea or not really.

    You sound like that Republican in Texas who said the grandparents of America would be willing to sacrifice themselves to Covid-19 for the economy. :pac:

    It's not an entertainment show where people are due their fix on schedule. These people have other jobs than announcing infection numbers. Bit of a joke moaning about it.

    Can I add in they've got husbands/wives and kids that they are probably rarely seeing and even less should this get worse - so maybe something to their families as a thank you...

    I’ve skipped tons of pages. What happened?

    Btw, I was out clapping. Few households did it and could hear some in the estate over too.

    Is this gonna be a nightly thing? I hope so.

    I wonder if that ‘one life’ was one of your loved ones, would you feel the same.

    Yes, I would. The selfishness of thinking your life is of greater value than society in general is absurd.

    This thread is overrun with grief junkies starved of gossip. Another half hour and the arm will be chewed through.

    We have been doing the clapping here in Vancouver for the past few nights. Pots and pans out and cheering.

    It lifts the spirits a bit.

    Gas! My aunt, who's mentally handicapped, and my late Granny used always do this on New Year's Eve, I think. Even as a kid I was neurotic /weirded out by it. :D What will the neighbours think, at 8 years old.
    I was against the clapping but you've softened my cough, pardon the pun. It's helping some, nó doubt.
    Got to revisit that mental note daily, not to be a grumpy man!
