It's rather horrific to still see leaders of nations talk about the virus situation while standing directly next to others with no way more than a meter between them If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

heywoodu 13,499 Posted April 1, 2020 #2323 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Nearby town is being hit pretty hard with 13 deaths all in the same relatively small nursing home. Not very surprisingly, it's a pretty strong Christian town...(meaning they all got together for their services and whatnot when it was already very clear that wasn't a good thing to do) If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

MHSN 3,047 Posted April 1, 2020 #2324 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Today was 13th day of new year in Iran, the last day of new year "holiday", since million years ago there was a tradition about going out to nature in this day to avoid the "bad luck" of this 13th. of course nowadays nobody really believes in that bad luck thing but still that was always a huge tradition. but this year in past few days everybody was begging everybody to stay at home. and it was somehow successful. and Rouhani was very happy about it, bragging about how successful their strategy was. something like "look, we didn't force people to stay at home, we convinced them to do so" yes we probably survived the day but what about tomorrow and Friday when most of those 8.5 millions will travel back to their towns and while numbers don't show any kind of improvement, Rouhani was claiming the situation is "improving" in all 31 provinces. (while the number of deaths passed 3000 today ) but one thing is true that hospitals are not full anymore. and they are much more prepared for the possible patients in future.

nitinsanker 179 Posted April 2, 2020 #2328 Share Posted April 2, 2020 India more than 600 cases yesterday as worldometer.......... This is a huge jump from the 100-200 case range we were in..... I hope this is not the start of a huge spike..... India's spike can put the US spike to shame with the sheer size of population we have..... ? strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
