Coronavirus

my parents keep going outside, and even worse, are hoarding alcohol. it frustrated me because we don't need 20 bottles of it. other people could’ve used it, yk? :-( sigh

20 bottles of what though? 20 bottles of beer and 20 bottles of spirits are two very different things.
 
tomorrow the US will surpass Italy and be 2nd place right behind china & next week we will surpass china im callin it
 
We are having trouble buying anything.
People hoarding loo paper, and leaving none for the rest of us.

I had to fill out a form to be able to get home deliveries again, and toilet paper, at last. :-/
 
my city has officially declared a state of emergency - great lmao

This was the case for the UK until they basically locked us down (we're not in lockdown, but we're as close as you can get).

Since then the stores have been fine, the only problem being only 1 person per household is allowed in which may make shopping a bit difficult depending on circumstances.
 
my state is on lockdown. i have to stand 6 feet apart from my boyfriend on our 1-year anniversary despite me working for a full months on his super special, detailed gift (a multimedia journal about our relationship). at this rate i'll be lucky to even be able to even see him. my prom and sat dates were cancelled as well. fun stuff. we live in a rural area but the closest big town to us (about 20 minutes away) had their first case today, and the person died the same day that their case was announced... i hate this.
 
I think the expert from Joe Rogan said deaths will peak at 500K world wide (maybe more imo). Close to 2009 H1N1 numbers.

At this rate, if COVID-19 ends up being only as bad as H1N1, I think it would be a miracle. There's a reason all of these drastic measures are being taken now that weren't taken during the H1N1 pandemic. On the global scale, H1N1 was kind of just a blip on the radar, but I don't think anyone is going to forget about COVID-19 for a very long time (unless something even worse comes along). It looks like the overall toll of COVID-19 is going to be bad, the only question is how bad?

Let's try and not think about the number of suicides from people who lost their jobs, business, life saving etc.
I have no idea when the economy here will be better. Maybe never.
 
The best thing we can do is stay safe, educate people, and move forward. A lot of people around us aren't seeing the news that we're seeing online. I look a break from the internet for a week to recover from some things and I completely missed the start of the quarantines, simply because I don't leave my house.

We have to show support for people in our communities. We need to reach out to old friends if we still have them, and make sure that they're doing okay. We need to talk to the folks in our lives and see what we can do for each other. At a larger scale, if we can, we should reach out to our neighbors and those in our cities and see if we can work together to ensure that everyone has what they need. Even something as simple as starting a WhatsApp group for folks in our city to post pictures of when you see toilet paper at the grocery store wouldn't be a bad idea.
 
I've just been told ibuprofen and advil "promotes" the symptoms of the virus and dug into research myself but idk if this is true or not. I've been taking ibuprofen for body aches but I do not have the virus but either way I'm going to stop taking them just to be safe
