The supermarket hoarding crazy has started here too today.
Yesterday the goverment issued additional nationwide measures.
Gatherings of 100+ people are banned, public events cancelled, universities cancel all lectures, people are advised not to use public transport or visit elderly.
Parliament needs to convene about if they are still allowed to convene, since they are also more than 100 people (150).
At noon, a lot shelves in the supermarkets were empty or nearly so.

The good thing about having to come into work sick is they have toilet paper here, so I'll be set.

Greek sector update:

Schools and universities have been closed since a few days ago and as of yesterday the government has issued an order for certain places (theaters, cinemas, gyms, courts of law, large venues etc) to halt their operations as well. One of the largest shopping malls in Athens closed today because one of the coronavirus patients had visited it recently. Rumor has it that most of the retail shops (everything except supermarkets* and pharmacies) are going to halt operations in the upcoming days.

In addition to the above, the Ministry of Health declared that they are looking to hire up to 2000 extra (medical) personel.

*a friend of mine that works in one of those, said people have already started to panic-buying.

edit: With the total number of confirmed cases at 190, the lockdown now extends to all shopping malls, bars, cafes, restaurants and beauty salons.

Bring Kobold Kamp to LNP! graphics compatibility fix.

So the conclusion I'm getting here is that we use QSPs because dwarves can't pilot submarines.

The mayor of Miami has tested positive.
This is after interacting with Brazil's Bolsonaro and his people.
Bolsonaro is Schrodinger's infectee right now with news of both positive and negative coming out.
It's very possible that Trump got it

Ivanka Trump and AG Barr recently met with an Australian official who tested positive

Reports are suggesting that Trump's gonna declare national emergency today and invoke the Stafford Act
Release the funds!

To Brazilian news he's said he's not infected. To foreign news he said he is. His son said he is to Fox.

So uh... yeah

I've been looking at the number of cases in Spain and Italy and I think relative to rhe date od infection stuff is going far worse.


Edit: just spoke with a friend who works in public healthcare. His take: the rest of the country is going to be better, probably, but Madrid and other high density sites will probably be WORSE
