OT: 2019 nCov (part 7)

[llamateizer]

I'm at home with my wife. I'm grateful for that. I try not to talk too much because I think my high stress is starting to stress her out and that's not fair. I know my work has an assistance program, I may give it a ring tonight.

Take care of yourself.

I tell myself that it's temporary (which it is). I do have some fears when I start thinking about my kids and the future that we're put them in.

My advice is that you need to talk about it, try to rationalize it. Keeping it for yourself is the worst and you don't want to stress your wife.


I started prepping before the outbreak in Canada and my wife told me that I was panicking.
I told her I wasn't. I'm just getting ready for the worst.
When Schools started closing, she realized what was happening.

Perhaps a call sooner might be more beneficial,no need to stress out you partner and the work place assistance might not be available 24/7

Incubation day #5 since my last exit. Next three days will reveal if I have it.

You can say that again.

 

[Habaneros]

You can say that again.

what?

what?

what:0

I feel like the sentiment is changing now. The studies in Iceland are encouraging.

What do you mean?

 

[angusyoung]

You can say that again.

And he probably will.

Yeah, the study shows that the fatality rates is much lower. A simple lack of testing healthy people is keeping it up.
Once antibody tests roll out, maybe people should test positive and have had 0 symptoms. But still very early to say sentiment is changing. we still entering the peak. The 40 variations of the virus is pretty intense tho.

And we are back on HFPlague.

40 variations? What does that mean? Are we f***ed?

 

[Adam Michaels]

Works for me. Anything to keep them away from Canada, please.

Spain just had to turn an ice rink into a makeshift morgue. Horrifying stuff. It's become very apparent that we need better planning for these sorts of unfortunate situations

Spain is also a country where the climate is warm given there are people saying that it doesn't spread as much in a warm climate.

I bet if you talked it out with your wife, your stress level would diminish.

It's also unfair to her not to share how you feel in this crisis.

 

[Crusher117]

no it seems to be getting less fatal with each variations.

 

[Catanddogguitarrr]

If Frank Drebin is somewhere, every goof is his fault. But listen to his answer that is quite a joke. He answer second degree about something first degree. A classic. You don't have to be slapstick all the time in a good comedy. Good punch jokes are efficiant.

 

[Catanddogguitarrr]

Sorry double post. My internet is slow but but means I'm physicly far from Montreal and his virus.

 

[Treb]

40 variations? What does that mean? Are we f***ed?

No. Variations for viruses are pretty standard. For context, you have more variants than that in a single HIV infected individual. The grand majority of variants will be affected by the same treatments.

We’re not out of the woods.

Lends some credence to the speculation I had heard that it was actually the US that put pressure on Canada to close our southern border.

Ottawa faces criticism for sending 16 tonnes of personal protective equipment to China in February

Lmao, when are some of you going to wake up?

 

[Runner77]

We’re not out of the woods.

We’re not ...

 

[Runner77]

Oh wow. That’s the same guy who expects that the virus will go away by Easter.

I had no idea you could order a virus to end by a fixed date.

This is what I am thinking. It was first annonced by Trump. Canada never wanted the border to be closed.
