But it's not a pandemic yes it seems bad as media is hyping and telling you about every death on repeat, but worst case it's 0.2% which should of been ignored its not 50% dead like the plague, but instead they used it to create lockdowns and bankrupt the world.
Ofcourse there liking the attention and being heros while doing there job for once, most enjoying the rest as not busy at all hospitals are all ghost towns as people staying home and dying, 2000 a week in lockdown extra dying in the uk because of this madness. They interviewed a nurse on the street she said how bad it was, turns out she hadn't worked in years just wearing nurses uniform for free stuff and instant front of the cue lol
See War side already beginning now many million will this kill? https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/30/asia/myanmar-war-crimes-coronavirus-hnk-intl/index.html
Yeah, in Spain, besides the doctor and his staff rejoicing on their easy work in a completely empty emergency room, you have nurses posting picture of hospital staff working in full gear but without panic next to picture of the street with people outside, since kids were allowed to come out after being locked in. And the legend says : " I don´t do this so you can do that" So while nurses elect to do their work, other people should not have the same choice and stay isolated. Not sure why people go on their balcony and clap for them every evening. But it´s not like they have much else to do. Other nurses posting videos on youtube, insulting people who dared to have their children play with other kids outside (police was there to fight this antisocial behaviour near my house ), attracting lots of supportive comments from the viewers. Then if lonely joggers have been qualified of murderers lately, fair enough to treat people who have their kids enjoy a few minutes of social life after 6 weeks locked in of subhuman. I guess... Those hospital staff, although their employer, the benevolent state, should have given them better protection gear, have been showed too much support from the population indeed. They now look like a significant part of the problem. Than again the only nurse I know closely in Spain, a family member in Southern Catalonia, in an area not hit hard by the virus, told me they were well equipped there, besides not being hit by the virus in a significant way - which probably mean they, as the shameless emergency team in Huelva, had very little to do, as non coronavirus patients had largely deserted the emergency rooms a few weeks ago.
Had the 8pm clap today with fireworks, ANNOYING, GF does it good 60seconds!! Had joggers called murderers here, Facebook is just STAY HOME or we'll all die, don't think they have a grasp on how minor this is, people being attacked and shouted at for being too close OMGGG no, but what is, 1 of you have it then it gets to an old person ( yeah right, your worried about yourself only ) They don't really need the protective gear, death rate isn't higher for NHS staff than a normal 50year old here, being 1 in 10,000 and there is a million staff, so 100 dead kinda works out, they could of got it off a mate / on the bus in the shops anyway. Hospitals not admiting people in car homes, it leaked out, nobody cared, not 1 OMG the car homes people are being left to die, well I did, but that's it, no comments or reaction, nobody cares. UK there working on there unlocking plans and they'll have a set of dates next week as to when restrictions will be started to be lifted, but they admit 8th April was the Peak, 2 weeks after lockdowns, 1 week before lockdowns took effect LOL Back at work next week, clients all deciding enough is enough, well 2 days all I work per week. When can my Gym / Swimming bath open, that's my important thing. Ohh and swingers club, not been in 5months LOL Need a few months in the gym first mind or find ladies into fat blokes.
Thanks to the coronavirus, EU can now boast a dictatorship among its member states, one which was hardly hit by the coronavirus at that. It appears many institutions are profiting of this "pandemic" to expand their powers in unhealthy ways. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-poli...navirus-covid-19-hungary-orban-trump-populism https://www.businessinsider.com/cor...mboldens-authoritarians-worldwide-2020-4?IR=T
"When Lee's tenure as special rapporteur began, Nobel Peace Prize-winner Suu Kyi was a democracy icon, who had spent decades under military-imposed house arrest. Lee said back then, she had "great hopes" and "great respect" for Suu Kyi when she came into power in a landslide election in 2015." Sweet memories and another amazing Nobel Peace price winner. I used to go to Yangon regularly before 2009, when Suu Kyi was an icon in the West and still under house arrest, we would sometimes drive by her house when going to the club, an old but very large property in one of Yangon poshest districts (still a crumbling area with busted up roads, as was the whole city. Business people were paying 100k usd for 20 y o crappy indian cars but with air con, which gives you an idea of what regular taxis looked like). That was before she was released and the country opened up. Some wild parties in Yangon back then - no idea how it has become now that the country is more mainstream, at most indulging in a genocide here and there. Sure miss those times nowadays in locked down Madrid, and I was taking more risks than walking around with a coronavirus in the air while having a lot more fun...
So a bunch of rules came out linked to the authorization to stroll and exercise outside for adults, which comes into force tomorrow after 7 weeks under strict stay at home order. Quite typical of spanish cumbersome bureaucracy that keeps the country at the bottom of Europe economically. There are some times of the day for kids, others for old people and different ones for adults to go out.Everybody home at night.You better be available and not sleeping at the right time. So after 7 weeks lockdown Spain is still not allowing the same basic freedoms enjoyed all over Europe during the whole lockdown. After a couple of weeks lockdown, Paris has requested people going out for exercising to follow special times though, but they didn´t split it the day in such a complicated way. it seems Paris has kept much more lively than Madrid. Italy was considering banning people to go out for a stroll after a long period of lockdown as the infection rate was still high, not sure whether they implemented it. Czech republic is the only other country in Europe I noticed which didn´t allow its citizens to go out to stroll, but not sure how it was implemented and they lifted that restriction after a couple of weeks only. Country seems to have largely opened up by now, I doubt close to the majority of people here are even looking half seriously at what is going on outside their country, and the fact Spain from memory has the worst level of English in the EU doesn´t help. They might be just following the news on TV (we don´t have TV btw) and the mainstream here screams : stay home if you feel any patriotism. Lots of censoreship talk about "fake news" which largely seems to mean non offcially approved news. Talking today with my fighting coach who is still daring the poisonous air to make a few bucks at my place, he mentioned his wife, in her late 30s/early 40s, who has been nearing panic while keeping her kids, who usually practice sports at least 5 times a week and compete, indoors since day 1 schools closed here, answered him "it´s the same everywhere" after he´d told her how difficult or complicated the rules were in Spain. Education levels in Spain are also low by international standards, unsurprisingly. That doesn´t help freedom to spread in this case. Coach is not very open on how the outside world is reacting to the crisis either, except in Portugal (where the fighting sports gyms he knows are already functioning normally) and Brazil. Talked to him about sweden but a couple of says agoi he´d remembered vaguely I mentioned a light lockdown in switzerland. Those are not very educated people but still Madrid middle class folks, i doubt there is much of a discussion around here on lighter forms of lockdowns. Italy is the country being mentioned most often in the spanish news feed I read, else it is a mix of short information about France, Portugal (more wondering why neighbouring Portugal suffered way less victims than Spain, a shameful matter here, than discussing how it is already reopening while having never implemented a harsh stay at home order), US, South America and China, China being shown usually in a positive light. And plenty of quotes from the WHO.
Here, in the States, we have half of the State Governors being re-elected in the November 4 General Elections. So, the ones that are up for the re-election behave. The ones who feel safe and nothing to fear can go rogue, like the witch in Michigan. NY Gov Cuomo has them ventilators coming out of his ears now, and the gigantic hospital ship they requested is being empty. Their bet was that Trump wouldn't be able to deliver the ship, yet the Navy delivered it in no time. Anyway, it is all about November 4. They couldn't impeach the President, now they talk about the Wave 2 coming right around that time... absentee voting reforms, etc.... to be continued...
