[OFF TOPIC] Coronavirus Pandemic

[MHSN 3,777]

just heard one of my relatives has died from Corona today evening in Tehran, not a close relative (brother of my sister's husband) and not a good guy, but when you hear such thing about someone you know in person that feels a bit different.

 

at least everybody in my family now understands the danger and will be more careful. personally I believe panic isn't necessarily a bad thing. that's the only way you can control this virus. people have to understand how serious it is and cut their contacts and follow the advises.

Lots of places in China have finished self quarantine and back to normal track. One of the phenomena is divorce reservation is fully booked, much more than usual and they have to wait for another couple of weeks to divorce. It already happened.

New research shows that staying one meter away from the infected is not enough... Two or three meters are required.

Do you guys just say hello nowadays when meeting new people instead of shaking hands? Elbow bumps have been the hype here but that seems so childish and so far I've been able to avoid them
