Coronavirus (Covid19)

[RB]

Any kids out and about is a true reflection of the parents not the teachers.

Parent(s) are essential workers leaving home at 6am and getting home at 7pm, teenagers at home by themselves and get invited by mates down to the local shops/park (which is still legal to do) what do you think the teenagers are going to do?

Still not sure what this has got to do with teachers.

The Reepham does $12 t-bones during the week, they are superb, and extra $5 if you want surf and turf.

Let's have a date when it reopens <3

Lock her in Eddie, just around the corner for you.

Exactly 1km according to Google Maps

Despite all that they did do what the government asked of them.
They spent all the money they received.

I don’t agree with it either BTW

Apart from the yarndi, but I'm sure the dealer threw it into the economy.

If someone gave me a wad of cash with the instruction to spend it, I would've

I would’ve chucked it all on race 6 number 5 at the Dapto dogs.

Wow, 10 minute walk there, 23 minute walk home.

Some cool economic data coming through, showing impact of lockdown on business categories and impact of stimulus package:

Check out the 'consumer spending by category' changes

Online gambling increases by 67% and 99% of sports apart from some racing have stopped. That’s insane

ScoMo wearing a silver/grey tie paid $4 the other day.

I've found I've been on the punt the last three Saturday afternoons when I would normally be running around on a footy oval. Clearly I'm not the only one in this boat.

I thought ubet exotics would pay stuff all, I haven't noticed any real differences.

I downloaded an app and deleted it a few days later. Tried it a few times, won double the money back but didn’t really enjoy it like I would going to the pub with mates for a few bets and beers. Liked the money part though

Hopefully stay at home.
Educate your kids enough to make good decisions.

Some kids will always ignore rules but hopefully the majority don’t.

C’mon Amber its always someone else’s fault

I got hammered on my own and bet on almost every race last Saturday. I think I broke about even.

#goodtimes

A few mates who I'm in a punters club at the pub with all did our tips as normal on the weekend and shared them, winner got bragging rights for the week.

Note - They are sick of me and looking forward to dethroning me this Saturday.

The US now has 434,000 confirmed cases. New York on it's own now has more cases than Italy or Spain or England.

With nearly 15,000 deaths and nearly 2,000 deaths over night the USA will pass the death toll in Italy some time today.

There's talk of temporary mass graves being dug in Central Park by the end of the weekend, 10 to a trench bodies will remain there until such a time as they can be processed.

I feel sick thinking about this.

Well put yourself into isolation fergawdsakes!

(either you laugh or you cry, I choose the former)

A lot of impeachment talk in the last 12 months, surely Trump's culpability here is as good a reason as any.

Only ONE new case in SA the past 24 hours

[Booney]

Only 1 new case in SA yesterday.

Nationally sitting at 48.29% recoveries.

Pleasing numbers.

[Dutchy]

Has anyone seen any stats on the average recovery time for each case? I know it would vary, but interested in the average.

For those who want to know what COVID-19 does to the body, here is a doctor's explanation.
I found it very interesting https://youtu.be/4J0d59dd-qM

Need 2 weeks of these sorts of low numbers before even beginning to contemplate easing the restrictions

It pains me to say but still, May 31st at the absolute earliest for mine. Minimize the risk of returning as much as we can.

Hopefully the numbers continue to drop, alls good whilst they do, be interesting to see when things get back to a little normality what happens, only takes one or two to have it, get out in public and away we go again.

Hearing a tentative date from sources of early May for a few things opening again )(dependant on numbers obviously) however dont believe that involves the playing of any sport at this stage.
