chakoo Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 12 minutes ago, CitizenVectron said: Wow. After pressure from the third-place NDP (social democrats), the Liberal government is pushing forward with a second major aid bill. This one will subsidize small business payroll up to 75% to keep people employed, and will make CERB ($2,000 emergency income replacement) non-taxable. The NDP is now pressuring them to give CERB to everyone as universal income, not just those who only lost their jobs as of Mar 15: I just came to post about this. The 75% increase is freaking amazing and far more than I would have expected. The previous 10% was barely going to do anything. This will be very helpful for my small startup to extend out our runway (our timelines got messed up over COVID-19 and planning for a marketing push at Disconnect conference).

We went from 170 to 135 cases and the testing backlog didn't grow (it's been growing by about a thousand a day for a while). Sadly 3 new deaths and reports of many people in a nursing home testing positive (so many more to come). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStar189 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 So my dad just heard from a customer of ours. This customer has a neighbor. The neighbor got back from a New Orleans vacation a few weeks ago. She just tested positive for coronavirus. She had been working her day job at a pharmacy inside a grocery store the last 2 weeks... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why we can't "open up" portions of the country that haven't been infected yet. Because they will end up getting infected too.

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Bolsonaro's anti-science response to coronavirus appals Brazil's governors Quote Top Brazilian politicians from across the political spectrum have warned that Jair Bolsonaro is putting thousands of lives at risk with what they called his reckless, paranoid, anti-scientific and belligerent response to the coronavirus. In a series of scathing interviews – conducted as 26 of Brazil’s 27 state governors convened an emergency meeting to discuss Bolsonaro’s behaviour – regional chiefs told the Guardian they feared the far-right leader was sowing confusion over the need for quarantine and social distancing measures, and wasting precious time setting political bonfires to energize his radical base.

CitizenVectron Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Some early stat collection on deaths in Europe seem to indicate that men are dying at a 2:1 ratio compared to women. Higher rates of comorbidy, such as heart/coronary disease, perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
