L.a. county stay at home oridiance extended to may 15th. I don't think LA going to loosen up until June at the earliest.

ok, so this i don't understand. what will have changed in june to make that a possibility?

That's just me taking a guess when it might actually get lifted. Right now, the current projections list L.A. county residents at 30% getting corona virus.

Quote
Officials outlined the stark paths ahead for Los Angeles County. If the stay-at-home order was quickly rescinded and people resumed to their normal habits, an astonishing 95.6% of L.A. County residents would be infected with the coronavirus by Aug. 1, according to projections released by the county.

Staying at the current levels of physical distancing would still result in 29.8% of residents being infected by Aug. 1.

But increasing our efforts to stay apart from one another by one-third could reduce that to just having 5.5% of Los Angeles County residents infected by Aug. 1.

Put another way: Junking the stay-at-home order now would result in 18,000 people needing hospitalization in L.A. County by mid-May, in a county with fewer than 4,000 beds. But maintaining the current level of physical distancing would keep the number of those needing hospitalization under 1,000 by late May, and significantly lower if we improved our physical distancing.

yeah I don't see why anyone would let up anywhere until a vaccine is developed

is the assumption that everyone who had it will have either died or developed immunity by then so now nobody has it, no one exists who can continue to spread it?

The government here aren't admitting it, but it's pretty clear that with them opening up schools again slowly (only the youngest first, you know the ones great at keeping distance and washing hands), the strategy is that the kids will get corona, give it to their relatively young parents who will also mostly survive it, and slowly but surely getting that immunity in the population. Shutting down a whole country for a year or however long it will take to get a vaccine, is not exactly realistic in the end. So rip boomers.

Our hospitals were never truly overloaded and the deaths havent been crazy.

We will have to open some stuff up. After the curve flattens, and it decreases, we will need to have people go back to work.  It is not tenable to have everyone locked in their houses until 2022

The plan here is that we slowly open up things again starting with schools and daycare late April, followed by restaurants and cinema's.
However, we will have to learn to live in a new "1.5 meter distance society" of which the details are being worked out.

One of the things that is likely is that everyone will have to carry a smartphone with an app installed that is a like a Nintendo DS streetpass for COVID-19  :doge

i'm not sure those projections can be entirely trusted since the infamous "herd immunity" is supposed to stop the spread at 60% :)

After the number of new cases/deaths goes down, it would make sense to start opening things up slowly. It's possible that there were a lot more asymptomatic cases than we thought and that reinfection is uncommon.

But if a second wave happens, then you're left with pretty extreme options. Either way, I don't think anyone will be going to a gym, restaurant, or maybe even barbershops until 2022. Most other sectors will also have a decrease since consumers will be hibernating their spending as much as possible.

I wouldn't bet than more of 10% of the population in the most hard hit country have it. Just doesn't jive with the data with have and the virulence.

I also think small business will reopen at some point, unless states are basically willing to bankrupt every bar, restaurant and such. Any large gatherings though... Maybe not this year, yeah.

We hear a lot about quick antiviral tests but it's clearly still being ironed out and not in mass production. Same with masks, I don't think any country over here will have enough for gen pop before June at best. Tracking apps... I'm sure many people will play that game but I don't believe they can force compliance and there will be people not enthused with it (Honestly not sure I'd want to opt in). Without those tools it's hard to see how exactly we can manage resuming jobs and unrestricted fresh air.

I'm afraid most of the millennials will be wiped out by this economically.
Most of them already had a slow start, as the economy crashed right after they were done with college/university.

They got their jobs late, they lived with their parents longer and most of them finally got something going between the age of 25 - 30 and were looking to work out a retirement plan, settle down, buy a house or plan for kids.
What little they had managed to save will now be spend on daily necessities.

Unless a miracle happens, Corona-chan wiped out an entire generation.
Couldn't have happened to a "nicer" generation imho.

So you're either 60 or 70. The 70's will be hit just as badly, but probably less so. You went through the Dot-com bust, the "Great Recession" (ugh) and now this. So either you are a sociopath with no sympathy, or a complete idiot.

Or you were born in the 00's which makes you underaged b&. Either way, shut the fuck up.

"My gEnErAtIoN Is tHe oNe tHaT'S AcTuAlLy bEeN SaDdLeD WiTh eNoRmOuS DeBt" he rëtardedly says to a generation that took degrees because the older generations told them to or "you won't get paid well!" Graduated into a recession that didn't GIVE THEM THE FUCKING JOBS to pay the "enormous debt" their parents and grandparents told them to take on for said "better paying jobs" and then struggle to pay off said loans while getting paid shit and working 2-5+ jobs that may last only 3-months at a time.

But sure, "My gEnErAtIoN CaNt aFfOrD ThE DrEaM ThAt oUr pArEnTs hAd" which is the same fucking shit that millennial face just in a different way.

Generally, I'm not being sincere with this, but in this case: Unironically kill yourself, Potato.

(Fuck the word filter in this case, and if Bork and Dogmod want to ban me for telling someone to literally kill themselves for being dumb: Go ahead.)

Every generation has had their travails. Preemptively feeling sorry for yourself does no good. My grandfather had the depression and WWII, my Dad was drafted into Vietnam out of high school then had to live through the Rust Belt era. My generation had to survive 7 seasons of The Nanny and finding out pro wrestling was fake.

Sure, but thinking "the generation under mine doesn't have it so bad" when charts like Nintex's and research/studies show that yes, they fucking do is moronic. Pure, weapons-grade A-bomb moronic.

"They don't have it as bad as I do!" is such a :neogaf proposition from someone that clearly hasn't been paying attention to the world at large.

French border police were notified on April 4 by the Marseille Provence Airport that an English company wanted to fly a jet from London to Marseille, carrying 10 passengers of Croatian, French, German, Romanian and Ukrainian nationality.
The passengers, seven men between the ages of 40 and 50 and three women who were "around 25," were heading to Cannes, an official with the Marseille Provence Air Border Police told CNN.

I'm surprised they were 25 and not 18 or younger.

My Father was put into an induced coma sometime since I last checked in yesterday. I try not to bother the nurses but once a day, they have a lot of other concerns right now. So we wait to see if that helps the situation over the next week or so. His wife keeps having kidney related issues and is receiving oxygen, I got to talk at her through FaceTime today and she didn't know my father was upstairs in the ICU. She was barely with it, barely able to be coherent.

Damn boomers spending all their money leaving nothing but medical bills for us Millennials and Gen Xrs!

Never put much thought into generations or what generation I’m in.  Never witnessed a generation labeled so much and talked about as a monolith as millennials.  Gen X spent a couple years being a thing to talk about in the early 90s, but feel like media and people have been obsessed with millennials for a decade.

Thousands of people surged for food aid in a brief stampede Friday in Kenya’s capital, desperate for help as coronavirus restrictions keep them from making a living. Police fired tear gas and injured several people, witnesses said.

Residents of Nairobi’s Kibera slum, spotting a food distribution, tried to force their way through a gate outside a district office for their chance at supplies to keep their families fed for another day.

1. Be poor
2. Need to go to work because "essential"
3. Have to take bus because you don't have a car. Because you're poor
4. Can't wear mask because national shortage and extreme prices for supply that exists
5. Get dragged off the bus by ten cops because you don't have a mask you can't find or afford to go to a job you can't quit

totally not a Kafkaesque nightmare

Never put much thought into generations or what generation I’m in.  Never witnessed a generation labeled so much and talked about as a monolith as millennials.  Gen X spent a couple years being a thing to talk about in the early 90s, but feel like media and people have been obsessed with millennials for a decade.
"generational" politics are one of the dumbest things to take root in modern day discourse :pacspit
you wouldn't say that if you were an echo boomer like me

I don't blame Potato, he learned the incredibly hilarious and never-boring behavior of maligning an entire generation from "ok boomer"
Unethical switcheroo.

Dutch government is working to equip all surveillance camera's with a system to detect if people keep their distance or not.
Not keeping your distance officially results in a 390 Euro fine.


Furthermore they're modding the cars that scan for illegal parking with the same tech.

Went to go to the grocery store but the line up was 50 people despite only being open for a half-hour, so I went to shoppers instead.  Looked bad-ass with my scarf-mask tucked into my bunny-hug.  However, I just over-heated, so probabbly looked more worring to people than had I not worn the thing.
