    The longer this goes on, the more relaxed with it I get.
    Sorry. Just can't help it.

    Driving around with my arm hanging out the window with the warm spring air flowing through the car and music blasting is one of the few joys I have left in quarantine

    Dont take that from me soul!

    As long as it doesn't endanger the weak and old through your relaxed attitude you don't have to apologize.. :p
    I hear a lot of things about it! As if its certain. But its not, its certain that once you had it you are immune for an uncertain time. So that's good, because 1) you can't pass it on and infect others during that time, and 2) you can't get sick through this particular virus during that time. The lousy thing is that its uncertain for how long.

    Brazil's leader blasted over COVID-19 remarks

    Brazil's far-right leader Jair Bolsonaro has sparked further outrage by suggesting the number of coronavirus cases in the country were being inflated for political purposes.

    Mr Bolsonaro, who has called for lockdowns to be lifted across the country, has already faced criticism for calling the virus a media “trick”.

    The death toll in Brazil has risen to 92, with 3417 cases.

    Overnight, he told Brazilian television he suspected those figures were being inflated by a political rival and denouncing coronavirus “alarmism”.

    “Some people will die. I’m sorry. That’s life," he said. “You can’t shut down a car factory because people die in traffic accidents."

    That's nice. No use getting in a panic. But it's a combined effort to obstruct this virus from spreading it as fast as possible. So that you see old people behaving more relaxed about this than you doesn't validate becoming more relaxed with the rules. It still makes all the difference

    The candy company that makes Peeps announced that it would temporarily be suspending production at its factories in Philadelphia and Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, due to the covid-19 thing.

    Actually, I hate the things but feel so bad for the people out of work.

    Yes, he's the turd that wants to industrialize the Amazon. So you probably dig him.

    Europeans often do seem to not know a lot of New World news. It’s kind of strange.

    Impressive if Asmo is the exception.

    I'm not even clear on "the rules".
    Nothing in my every day is any different other than I can't go to work.

    Most europeans with a bit of an interest in global affairs know Bolsonaro but ok. But I also have family in Brasil and its the only 'new world' country I have actually visited ;)

    VG must have confused you for a US citizen. We don't even know who Canada's or Mexico's leaders are.
