    The cure has been found here 3 weeks ago by a co-medical scientists /
    tested in secret was effective at 100% in 4 days 
    but the minitery is very corrupted and bureaucratic to start working with , the scientists are calling the president , otherwise they will go to another country

    It really, very much should not be. If you make the economy our last priority right now, countless more people are going to die and at the very least have their lives go to shit because of it.

    Spanish hospitals and their employees got emails with titles like "Information about COVID-19"....which included ransomware, which went on to lock the systems unless money is paid. I'd better not post what I hope happens to people who do that, especially in this situation.

    Albert Uderzo has died. He was 92 years old. 
     
    He was the illustrator of Astérix & Obélix, the last giant of the franco-belgian comic book industry.

    Of course the organization of those smaller events care about it, maybe some local people who are somehow involved as well. But on the general stage, probably not even 0,1% of the people who are interested in the Olympics even know of the existence of obscure things like Lusophone of Francophone Games.

    Cowardly, yes.  Corrupt?  Not necessarily because of this.
     
    Bach hasn't done the best job of expressing to the world the intentions of the IOC.  I think everyone involved knows that postponement is inevitable, but it takes time to get everyone on board to make sure that's followed through properly for all interested parties.  With all due respect to Canada, they're one nation out of 200+ (I will say the exact same thing about the United States who has also been chirping).  I think the back breaker was Seb Coe.  When he's saying to move to postpone the Olympics as head of the most prominent sports federation involved in the Games, that carries a lot of weight.

    The United States and France are able to willing to host because they have the majority of the needed facilities already in place without having to spend billions to build new venues with no planned use for after the Games.  That was the problem with cities like Rio and Athens which in hindsight were poor choices to be Olympics hosts.  Hosting the Olympics will lose money if it's planned and executed poorly.  Unfortunately, it's extremely difficult to plan and execute them well.  Let's see how that works out for Los Angeles in 2028 where the baseline for them will be the 1984 Olympics which made a profit.  And it's hard to measure the long-term benefits of hosting an Olympics.  Ask LA 1984 and Barcelona 1992 how that worked out for them.
     
    What we're seeing with the Winter Olympics is that the only cities that might want to host now are those with facilities in place.  Which for the most part means cities that have host an Olympics before.  Somehow, Italy stayed in the running for 2026, but they have many of the needed venues already in place.  Yes, if no one else bids, maybe Qatar offers up a trillion dollar bid and the IOC has said yes (although after the impending disaster that is the 2022 World Cup, let's see how that goes after that).

    Because I don't generally care too much for who holds the business interests and so on, and in this specific case I just read the parts where it was about the ridiculous new format

    yeah, today's numbers are really scary (at least, yesterday we had more than double recovered people than deaths...today there are more deaths than recovered people)...
     
    and as always, around half the infected and the deceased people are in Lombardy...
     
    yesterday a military convoy was organized to move bodies from the Bergamo province to other places to be cremated, as there's no place anymore in the infrastructures of that province...

    Egypt was colonized by France in the 19th century for 3 years btw and btw Egyptians still use some french words in their normal life without knowing that these are french language  and ofc France played a vital rule in making world know the egyptian civilization by interpreting Rosetta Stone , so i'd say that it's not really strange for egypt to participate here and ofc there're still french schools still existent in Egypt my mom learned in one of them and French is considered a main foreign language here in egypt it comes just after English
