The virus

We need a cure for that virus and need someone figure out how to do it. It is not getting better, but, worse. So far supermarkets and banks are open. Some schools will be closed so parents will have to figure out what to do with their little ones that are not in school. Now, we only take public transportation if we need to.
So, this is what is going on here besides the other stuff being done to contain the virus. I hope everyone is safe from it. People are suppose to cough and sneeze into their elbows and to keep a safe distance from people

The containment of the virus lies on personal commitment and cooperation. The vaccine may be invented to cure the victim but it's easier if everyone will cooperate to stay at home for quarantine.

I understand what you are saying, but, there are times I just have to go out.

I do not enjoy going out these days anyway. I hope I do not have to go anywhere next week.

@Hannihar There are various reasons for that bit it would be better to stay put.

In Romania, many people are just ignoring what the authorities say. They are going out, gather in large groups, elope quarantine, force hospital and supermarket doors and don't keep the distance between them. I suppose that things will get worse in a short period of time.

@Hannihar And that should be punished, severely.

So true. Those not listening cause the rest of us more problems.

Then I would say they are playing not only with their lives but others as well.

I wish I could just stay inside and not have to go out but have to do it. You stay safe as well.

You are welcome and this virus really bothers me and I hate when I have to go out these days. I prefer to stay at home and not go out.

Yes social distancing is the precaution but even in our office we can't do it because our office space is very small so we are close to each other

That must be hard. Has anyone gotten sick recently so they are spreading germs?

I am glad right now there are no positive cases where you are. This virus has put a scare into people so can understand how you do not feel safe.

@Hannihar As of now thankfully there are no positive cases in our island province. But I still don't feel safe.

Here malls are closed. I cannot imagine what the government would do with the jobless workers for 1 month.

That's quite a concern, isn't it? I hope there will be some assistance available from the governments for the citizens who are impacted by the virus like that.

It has to be taken seriously by all that live here. Steps are being taken but people have to follow them.

@Hannihar I really feel a complete lock down would benefit many in every country affected. Just stay in our homes for 14 days. Would be a great way to kill it at home and then go back outside virus free....hopefully.

@Hannihar I completely understand what you mean. I just meant for everyone to help stop the spread. There's going to be a lot of people such as yourself who can't stay at home for that long. But I mean to stop the spread to help save people, being isolated just to kill the virus.

Dani, I understand what you are saying, but, I have no one else to go out and do things I have to do so cannot afford to just stay at home all the time.

I haven't heard much news about the coronavirus from Israel. I think that means to say there are less cases in your country and this is good. Last time I read a news about coronavirus from your country is about how advanced technology to treat for the infected patients. The doctors don't have to get close to the patients so that they can avoid risks. The robots and remote sensors can do the main jobs. That sounds great!
