    I think you have rocks in your head if you think those traditional news sources that were barely surviving before this are even bothering to send out the half dozen reporters they have to sneak around neighbourhoods trying to track down millions of teens 24/7

    Around here surveillants or police check out these youngsters (or others) who roam the streets without thinking about the temporary rules. The reporters get their news on how peeps misbehaved for a large part by keeping updated by them.

    South eastern states of Australia have a cold snap coming this week, there will be a rise in cases after that. Scotty from Marketing will try tell us it's because we were naughty and broke all the social distancing rules, even though more people stayed inside because it's freezing

    At the same time, school goes back next Tuesday, voluntarily, but we will see how many mums are sick of home schooling, and there will be another bunch of twats that blame the rise in cases on ScoMo keeping the school's open....and not the freezing weather

    Fun times

    It took Mexico 7 days for their number of deaths to double. A country with only National recommendations, not restrictions

    Coronavirus: Is pandemic being used for power grab in Europe?

    Some of Europe's leaders have been accused of taking advantage of a public health crisis to clamp down on dissent and bolster their power.

    As Turkey arrests hundreds for social media posts and Russians are threatened with jail for anything considered fake news, there are fears that democracy is being jeopardised in Poland and that it has been swept away in Hungary.

    Is pandemic being used for power grab in Europe?

    "New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is being sued over the country’s coronavirus lockdown, with two applicants making multiple claims at the High Court in Auckland Friday – including it being "all for her political gain".

    They also asked for a writ of habeas corpus, which seeks to rule an imprisonment unlawful and release the applicants.

    The two men, who are known to each other, argued the alert level four lockdown has left them unlawfully detained and is not worth the economic cost compared with the low number of COVID-19 deaths."

    Got a million of these bullshit articles now

    This one titled:


    Coronavirus: How California kept ahead of the curve

    "The University of Washington's Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation projected in March that more than 6,000 people in California would die of coronavirus. This week, the institute revised their forecast - projecting that California will reach its peak on 17 April - with 1,783 deaths.

    How California kept ahead of the curve


    And they give four main reasons in the article:

    The state acted early
    California was the first place in the United States to issue shelter in place orders. Gov Newsom ordered California to shelter in place on 19 March - three days before New York.

    Wow, a whole three days


    The authorities took it seriously


    .....because New York didn't?


    The population is more spread out
    Unlike densely packed New York where most people rely on public transportation, California is known for its urban sprawl and its love affair with the car.

    Duh, errr uh eerr derrrrr


    Beaches and hiking trails are closed
    The state initially got off to a bumpy start when it came to public spaces.

    Oh well that's the secret code broken, close the hiking trails where no one sits near each other anyway, case closed, we can all go home now

    Oh, he's a fuckin commie, that's why:

    "Dr Tedros, a microbiologist who rose to government in Ethiopia in the 90s as a member of the Marxist revolutionary group the Tigray People’s Liberation Front, told a media conference Wednesday “we regret the decision” and that “when we’re divided the virus exploits the cracks between us"


    Why the world turned on the WHO

    I keep scrolling fast and reading WHO as UFO and then I get disappointed when it's not about UFOs.

    Yeah :p All those leaders of the countries named were already busy with that before the crisis. Besides, Turkey and Russia are hardly Europe. So its just Poland and Hungary as usual last decade.
