I just realized that even with a lockdown, Italy still has exponential growth in cases.

It's still too early to expect an effect. Things should hopefully slow down next week.

Quote from: D3RANG3D on March 22, 2020, 12:56:46 PM

I'm sure you have seen the videos of people in Italy partying right?

I can't speak for Italy but in France examples of people not respecting lockdown guidelines are distorted by media attention (and there's a shaming element to it). Yes it happens. Yes there's some people "fleeing" to the countryside which is stupid and counterproductive. Yes there's grey areas (like the Paris open air markets). But overall, my anecdotal opinion -and keep in mind I'm out everyday to work, I take transports, I go to shops- is that activity outside is orders of magnitude less than usual. Public transport stats confirm this. The goal of the lockdown is to dramatically limit the opportunities for infection on a national scale and globally this is what happens. I'm sure Italians are the same, all the more with the horrific number of fatalities. But there's no accounting for inconsiderate bellends anywhere, of course.

With an incubation time of up to a few weeks, plus time from symptom onset to serious illness up to a week.
Lockdown to flatten is gonna lag by a matter of weeks.

I think we need to have a discussion about the cac and his propensity to screw over people near and far.
Could this be a cultural issue? Perhaps it's in their genes. In any case, this merits investigation and should be addressed, they need to be civilized.

The masks in Czechia were seized as part of a crackdown on gougers. They only realized later that part of them were aid from China meant for Italy. It's being rectified.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/coronavirus-face-masks-china-italy-czech-republic-latest-a9416711.html

The German seizures are part of an export ban on medical supplies from the 15th. Some shipments meant for other countries go through Germany and are delayed because of this, particularly to EFTA states (Switzerland, chiefly).
Meanwhile, the ban has been lifted.
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-germany-exports/germany-lifts-export-ban-on-medical-equipment-over-coronavirus-idUSKBN2162SH
Export to EFTA states has been explicitly authorized:
https://www.efta.int/EEA/news/Exports-equipment-fight-COVID-19-authorised-EU-EEA-EFTA-States-517331

The comission is now scrambling to gather a stockpile to co-ordinate distribution to member states (which is probably why Germany's ban was lifted).

they wouldn't send my mum's meds.

America is so screwed. Latest example:

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/20/us/coronavirus-cruise-ship-costa-luminosa.html

Lots of probably infected people from a cruise ship flew back to the US and were allowed to leave/continue to travel without testing or being quarantined.

Quote

Nearly 400 Americans and Canadians were evacuated from the Costa Luminosa, an Italian cruise liner, after several passengers tested positive for the coronavirus. They flew home anyway.

Quote

“Passengers with no symptoms upon arrival were given health information advising them to stay home for 14 days after returning from travel, monitor their health and practice social distancing as they continued to their final destination.”

Several passengers acknowledged that they or someone in their party had high temperatures when the C.D.C. checked. But as long as their temperatures fell after repeated tries, they were allowed to go home.

Passengers said they booked flights to California, Arizona, Florida and elsewhere across the United States and Canada.

Ms. Nordlund did not respond to questions asking whether it made sense to allow people who had been instructed to self-isolate to travel on commercial aircraft, potentially exposing them to other passengers.
