Im curious. I was looking at government stats last week for a client and saw that Italy is one of the worst countries (among G10) for under-employment. The figures I saw had Italy at 22% under-employment (I guess that includes the 9+% that are completely unemployed). That rate of under-employment compares very poorly to Germany (8%), the US (7%), the UK (11%), Japan (6%). Only France is close at 17%. Easy to look at stats on a page, but do you have a similar sense living there? I mean are there a lot of people who want to work but can’t find a job? Or are stuck in a part time job with limited hours when they’d like to work more regularly?
We can't control the virus, so we'll just buy our way out of it. Sorry everyone else. Potential bad omen for when a vaccine is available.
My problem with hotels is they charge you to stay at them. And I’ve got a perfectly good house that I’m paying for anyways. Somehow the wife doesn’t see it that way though.I saw a news report that a swanky long standing Toronto hotel is opening again, and the manager says they are enthusiastically welcoming visitors to the historic place. However, guests MUST wear a mask during their entire stay anywhere in the hotel, when not in their rooms. Sorry, for me, if that is what it takes to stay in a hotel these days, I'll just hang out at home.
The mass production effort of a vaccine for Covid-19 would probably blow away any mass production effort in human history. We won't have to worry about the US buying up the billions of doses that will be manufactured over the year or so it becomes available.
You have more faith in the system than I do. Eventually it will available to all, but I doubt that third world countries will get first dibs.

They just don’t get it in America, do they? Let’s get 100,000 people to sign a waiver so they can fill Cowboy Stadium. Never mind that it will spike the virus to unheard of levels.
My God does that country need some actual leadership right now and their citizens to park their misplaced sense of personal freedoms and politics aside for the greater good.
Trump went on Fox today and claimed (again) the virus will one day just disappear.
