[OFF TOPIC] Coronavirus Pandemic

Belgians are mad at some Italian newspaper, because they described the absolutely huge Belgian health minister Maggie de Block as someone who is 140kg :p "Belgium changes how they'll count dead, decides Maggie: minister of 140kg"

 

Belgians shouldn't be so sensitive about that, since half the Belgian internet is full with De Block memes often focusing on her saying of "Stay in your house" combined with 'or else I'll eat you' :p

Is Dr Tedros the next person we all have to hate? :p 

 

So unsure and uncertain. Many people asking him to step down as the head of WHO. Hmm....

SAIL Amsterdam has been cancelled, which is a shame for people who like these big boats.

Since events until 1 September can't happen, and this was planned in August, it would of course not go on this year, but moving it up one year turned out not to be an option neither: most of these international tall ships apparently have their schedules made up for a few years already. It's an event that's supposed to happen once every five years, so the next one will only be in 2025.

tbh, no one of the main Italian nerwspapers wrote a single word about Belgium...

 

if you read them, they are all about our government imploding on the "restart plans" and the EU help (the infamous MES/Coronabond question, which has now just become an ideological battle, with no interest for the future of our Country, but only the usual small and short term political interests among our political parties)...

 

then, there's always some room for our football officials (they need to come back playing or 80% of our teams go bankrupt) saying everything and the opposite of everything day after day...and finally, a few reports about Trump and his madness and the danger of an excessive political influence by China...

 

that's it...no place at all for Maggie...maybe some of the smallest trashy pamphlets (you just can't call them "newspapers") wrote a word or two about Belgium, but frankly answering to their sh*t is only wasted time...

Not sure if it was the NOC or the biathlon federation (I assume the latter) that put him in the Livigno training 'world' with a former Italian biathlete as coach, but they can definitely also be blamed:  almost everyone involved in that shitshow got the motivation just sucked out of them by the methods and shitty atmosphere until they either retired or changed country

    • Lots of injuries, including often just pure bad-luck stuff like a fall from a set of stairs, illness, and of course the Sochi tragedy in 2014: one of her biathlon friends, young Julia Pieper, killed herself with a biathlon rifle early during the Olympics (she wasn't on the team, but was a training partner of both Preuss and Dahlmeier). Obviously a hard hit, which led to terrible Olympics for Preuss, with a DNF, awful results in her other individual races and a relay where she was the first runner for Germany, but fell early on, got snow in her rifle and broke a pole and ended up losing almost 3 minutes, which in turn resulted in Germany being off the podium for the first time ever.   After that came all the injuries and illness and everything. So glad to finally see her have her big individual global gold, that is so well deserved.
    • Dave Ryding's Sixth was the best from a  man since 1934!  We actually have two Women's Golds in the 1930s.
    • first win for the Italian men's relay since 2007      very good Home stage for us   if only the organizers didn't set the finals sessions at 2 p.m. (especially on Saturday), there would have been a lot more spectators on the seats
