  1. I think Canada is also regretting not building a wall as well.
  2. Number of virus infections in Russia are very low, hence the reason VP looks like he is visiting Chernobyl. https://abcnews.go.com/International/putin-dons-hazmat-suit-russia-admits-virus-numbers/story?id=69768452
  3. COVID-19 outrage as snowbirds flock across the border, shop and refuse to self-isolate https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/covid-19-outrage-as-snowbirds-flock-across-the-border-shop-and-refuse-to-self-isolate/ar-BB11DOhE?li=AAggNb9
  4. Just in case people think that the Chinese were truthful about virus start timeline. I like to offer them a very lovely bridge for sale, they can choose San Francisco or Brooklyn location.
  5. Nice read for those that think Trump calling the virus Chinese is appropriate. Spit On, Yelled At, Attacked: Chinese-Americans Fear for Their Safety https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/spit-on-yelled-at-attacked-chinese-americans-fear-for-their-safety/ar-BB11AEg5
  6. Youngsters have to remember that the average age for a physician in Canada is almost 50. If they start getting sick, people might want to watch reruns of Dr.Quinn the medicine woman, to get tips in case they get sick.
  7. I do have enough of TP but lack of it doesn’t concern me like some of the other items, soap for example. As I posted few weeks ago, washing out my bunghole is always an option in case I am out of TP.
  8. I have been faced with this dilemma for a while and I need some help. Who do I trust in regards to this situation? Doctors, scientists, epidemiologists, virologist, nurses, hospital staff, infectious disease specialists, center for disease control etc. Or former painter Sean Hannity, Alex Jones, clam linguine, orange con artist, some random asshole from the internet. Hmmmmm........it’s really tough. I am going to sit on a toilet and ponder this for a while.
  9. Yeah, when I think of totalitarian regime Canada is the first country that pops in my mind.
  10. Sky News video from hospital in Bergamo, one of the hardest hit cities in Italy. https://news.sky.com/story/coronavirus-they-call-it-the-apocalypse-inside-italys-hardest-hit-hospital-11960597
  11. I will gladly trade you orange clown for the pretty boy.
  12. I know that, but if it was so hard on his body, you can imagine what it will do to your average North American couch potato body.
  13. Young, non smoker, no pre existing conditions and in better shape than overwhelming majority of people. OLYMPIC CHAMPION SWIMMER DIAGNOSED WITH CORONAVIRUS CALLS IT 'WORSE VIRUS I HAVE EVER ENDURED https://www.newsweek.com/olympic-champion-swimmer-diagnosed-coronavirus-calls-it-worse-virus-i-have-ever-endured-1493664
  14. Of course, my wife got a paper stating that she is part of essential service and that she can move around 24/7.
  15. Parents are too busy to pay attention to their kids. Couple of weeks ago my oldest son attended hockey game with his school. Majority of moms and dads were on their cell phones most of the time. The ones sitting bellow us I could see their Facebook, Instagram etc.
  16. We all know what is happening in Italy, 53 000 people have been fined for breaking the quarantine in the last 8-9 days. Its a $222 ticket, I am afraid that we need more draconian measures. When you are young you think nothing can happen to you as well as your brain has not fully developed yet. In every war, 18 year old kids are the first ones to die because they have no fear.
  17. Here is an article from NYT that explains how Italy got to a point where they are right now in regards to this outbreak. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/italy-pandemics-new-epicenter-has-lessons-for-the-world/ar-BB11vMrO?li=BBnb7Kz
  18. Spain, Italy and Greece have been drowning in debt as long as I can remember. Without tourism and help of the EU they would have been destitute.
  19. In Russia you report, next thing you commit suicide by shooting yourself in the back of the head half dozen times.
  20. Few things that I can think of. Southern and southeastern Europeans are notorious for not respecting the authority. Germans and Northern Europeans are much different breed. Sporting events, cultural events, cafes, restaurants etc. were jam packed with younger people. It is very common that 2-3 generations of the same family live together. Italy has always been one of the most corrupt countries in Europe as well. Very old population, medical staff got sick due to lack of equipment, whilst face masks were being sold to other countries. All my friends from Italy pay or used to pay to get private care, even my doctor friends from Italy always complained about conditions. Out of top 20 European hospitals, 8 are located in Germany and 0 in Italy. I am sure that pre existing conditions and high smoking rates are not helpful either.
  21. Insurance companies will take a bath as well as banks once defaults start.
  22. My sister in law at the same conference, been in self isolation for the last two weeks.
