    what ? don´t try to make a race problem from this, this is a problem of national safety.
     
    the rate of infection among Roma in these settlements is 13 times faster than in the majority society. By the way, the decision was made by the Chief Public Health Officer and the Roma MEP representing the Roma community in Slovakia !. This is not for fun. This is a very important decision, those people there had a guy who arrived probably already infected from Sheffield 3 weeks ago, he met already hundreds of peoples in all these settlements.

    Same to you. I think the Democratic governors are to thank for saving the US from Covid. I don’t know how Trump’s response surprised you? There’s no response really, so I guess that is surprising in a way. 
     
    I’m friends with quite a few libertarians by the way. They can be a little crazy for me at times, but then who isn’t right?

    5 Roma slums ? (ghettos ?) or however it is called are now in total quarantine !
     
    The Roma slums in Žehra, Bystrany and 3 villages around the city of Krompachy are closed and guarded by the army
     
     
    "The quarantine will be provided by the army and police in cooperation with local governments. People in quarantine should be provided with health care and supplies...
    At the same time, the number of military teams that provide sampling in the villages with Roma minority will be expanded from four to eight. There more than 1000 Roma settlements in the country, all will be tested"

    The theme of the official logo is Symphony of Nature, or rather, Symphony of the Sea.
     
    There are several elements to it. Most prominent are the sea and sand in the background. They represent the Croatian coastline. With an estimated length of 6000 km and counting more than 1000 islands, the Croatian coastline is known for its rugged nature. The boat floating on the top represents harmony. Finally, we have the music sheets written on waves together with several notes thrown around. They indeed represent the Symphony of the Sea.
     
    How does the Symphony of the Sea sound like?
    Well, one way to find out is by going to Zadar. More specifically to its Sea Organ.
     
    The Sea Organ is an experimental musical instrument which creates the sound by the sea waves crashing into empty pipes located underneath the large marble steps. In its essence, the Sea Organ allows the nature to take over a role of conductor.
     

     
     
    The sea tends to become melancholic on a rainy day.

    I’ve never been more proud to be Californian. We’re practicing our duty as Californians to take care of those most in need of care. Hopefully these help our blue brothers and sisters (since the President has been helping red states out bid them).

    The issue is that the disease is going to spread (and it’s actually better if it spreads now (though more gradually would be ideal). So I think France, UK, and US are somewhat in the right here. I actually think countries like Slovakia are setting themselves up for colossal outbreaks later on. Of course that all comes down to when a vaccine is developed, and how long it take the disease to progress.

    It's obvious the coronavirus has overwhelmed everyone. It's proven to be too much for both liberal and conservative politicians so I can only laugh at the ideas that if someone else was in charge here or there, things would have looked different. No, it wouldn't.
     
    Malaria claims 1-3 million lives per year but it's viewed as Third World disease so it doesn't impact the global market and all these wealthy countries don't give a damn about it. But 100k coronavirus deaths have broke into the industrial powerhouses in Europe and America and the world freaks out. It's easy to dismiss infants dying in Chad of malaria but COVID has proven rich & powerful people can't buy health either.

    Thank you, @Olympian1010. Unfortunately, as @heywoodu said, it was confirmed by the federation. Now, complete focus on the preparation for the XC World Championships, which main goal for me is to get qualified for the 30km race.

    Trump has announced the US will stop funding WHO...
     
    It’s beginning to take everything in my soul not to wish ill on the orange idiot.
     
    Just to recap, in his time as President, Trump has: pulled the US out of the Paris Climate Accords, banned people from 14 countries from entering the US, presumably broken the law on more than one occasion, threatened (but so hasn’t) to pull the US out of NATO, chosen to continuously battle with our closer allies, and now has decided to stop help funding WHO (which will only punish us in the long run).
     
    Supposedly Trump has a good amount of stock in that malaria drug, which would actually makes a lot of sense at this point (horrifyingly).

    I’m just against the use of force. If police/MPs do their job peacefully, using the least amount of force needed, then I’m fine, but I’ve been quite disturbed from what I’ve from a few countries. People should still allowed all the their basic human rights and freedoms during the pandemic. My biggest fear, besides people not respecting what medical professionals advice, is governments using this pandemic to clamp down on rights and freedom (like we already saw in Hungary).

    Seeing all those pictures from everywhere, I'm damn glad there is no talk at all about military going on the streets here. That's the point where one would seriously wonder if things aren't going too far.
