I know it's not fair, and I shouldn't, but I checked out at "A Chinese scientist has claimed 100% success..."

Speaking of the market a analyst on CNBC made a good point and we should actually hear from people who are recovered from the virus, so far all we hear (for most part) is about new cases, new deaths, food shortages and the spread of the disease, etc we should have some public announcement of some type
Someone like a Tom Hanks and his wife Rita who had the corona virus come and give a quick note to everyone and how they recovered , this would help calm things down a little bit imo

well.... our Prime Minister had an address to the nation today... thought for sure we were going to end up with a much more strict lock down or get a curfew at least... no such luck... just an update on the financial easing they are going to do through our central bank and getting the commercial banks to do....
on another note a friend shared this link with me..... kinda mind blowing how China really screwed the pooch with getting a handle on this damn virus... you'd think they would have really learnt something with the Bird and Swine flu outbreaks....

How so? Did they make it harder or easier to get a mortgage?
harder, waaaaaaaaaaaaay harder. but they are safer loans for the bank. in my opinion we had been making a lot of loans we should not have but the argument was hey they are all paying so lets keep doing it. we didn't take any of the bail out money in 08-09 and probably have some of the highest ROI in the country.

Lots of crazy conspiracy theories, stupid comments that make no sense, proudly making comments about shaking hands, etc.
well shaking hands isn't really the best thing to do if you're trying to avoid the virus however.... yeahhhhhhh... it's like... I knew I had some dense friends but BOY, I'm really taken back by some of the shit I'm seeing people post on social media lately....
