We start the counting with one more case reported earlier today for a total of 177 cases. Many are put in isolation for 2-4 weeks to see if they come down with any symptoms. We live in interesting times. 224 cases by 10:15 p.m. Good night! The end is nigh. Good Morning from Western Norway, Tuesday, March 10th, 2020. The count at the start of the day is 227 cases. The Government is twiddling its thumbs. There are lots of older people in Norway. Guess they want to reduce their pension payouts! Our Prime Minister is a Globalist. Got to get the older population numbers down. Many flights cancelled. Don't worry, be happy! 252 cases at 3 p.m. Today. At 7:40 p.m.: Now the news is saying 277 New cases. However the Worldometer site is saying 303 cases! Our news is always behind the Worldometer site. So 303 is most likely correct. This has happened several times now. At 8 p.m.: WTF! It just hopped from 303 to 328! 10:18 p.m. It is now 356! Good night for now! Will update on Wednesday! Edited March 11, 2020 by theoldlady Updates for 10.

Japan, Italy and the UK spring to mind. It is all about the overworked healthcare system, lack of care homes and also the number of pensions that have now got to be paid out. A cull of the old and infirm might just solve these problems quickly. We shall see. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Government just raised the risk level on getting infected from low to high and are considering closing down more high populated areas. Copehagen Business School had its first two cases and so did a gym. Plus, an infected were out partying all friday and may have infected a handful. No deaths yet. My prediction from February about a max of 4 deaths in the coming months still stands. As a Teacher, we are really touched by this, and schools all around are worried. Mainly because a lot of families were on holiday in Italy in the holiday time a few weeks ago. Edit: 156 now. Edit: Just jumped from 156 to 252. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An interesting note, the Norwegian Stortning (Parliament) has banned foreign travel for their Parliamentary members for March and April. Us mere mortals have no such ban yet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drol 11,886 Posted March 10, 2020 For the first time since its beginning, contagion has (much) slowed down in Italy. On the other hand deaths and people in ICU have never been so high. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathray 2,940 Posted March 10, 2020 On 07/03/2020 at 19:52, Toast said: There was plenty of paracetamol when I was round the shops on Thursday. But no ibu-pro-fen. Guess the failed ibu-pro-fen buyers have snapped it all up. I always have plenty of both because of the stupid restrictions that stop you buying a 100 tab bottle, which is what I used to do. So I tend to toss a couple of packs in the basket whenever I think of it so as not to run out. Has anyone actually researched how many lives those restrictions have saved?? If you want to kill yourself I can't see how having to cross road to other shop will be a big deterrent. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boudicca 702 Posted March 11, 2020 Saw the handwashing with "God Save the Queen" and thought I would rather die tbh. I'm considering locking charon's chinese phone thread as a precaution. First case offshore. My pal there has already cancelled his Italian skiing holiday and is going nowhere for a while. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Government has woken from its bubble and are starting to take more measures to stop the spread of the virus. From today on I fortunately can now work from home at least until Easter. I can click on a laptop no matter where I am. Because of my age and my husband's health, I am one of those in THE GROUP that can get really sick and die from this thing. (They still haven't closed the schools, museums or universities yet. It reminds me of the river in Africa called De Nile.) As of 19:25 (7:25 p.m. ) we now have 570 cases! Yikes! This is increasing quickly! As of 21:36 (9:36 p.m.) we have 621 cases. Huge increases today! Edited March 12, 2020 by theoldlady To show updates 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genfærd 452 Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) Stay safe! Only a matter of time now. Here in Denmark, schools and Unis are starting to shut down. We reached 320 cases this morning and our government will soon forbid Mass gatherings. Sadly, we are drawing closer and closer to The 1st deaths in Scandinavia. Edit: 25 mins after this post cases in Denmark went from 320 cases to 442 just now. 1300 in quarentine.

ladyfiona 2,572 Posted March 11, 2020 I don't work at this hospital which has just got a case (ward 7 and 8 closed off apparently according to my boss at Wexham), but I did my 6 week training there and 90% of staff who work with me come from that hospital daily. Some live on site. I also come into contact with the porters in the post room reguarly who sort out the post coming from that hospital daily. I feel i'm going to get it or my department is going to be closed for a short time, lol. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genfærd 452 Posted March 11, 2020 Sorry for multiple posts. But holy shiiiit. Denmark is shutting down. Completely. No events must have 100 or more people attending. Every institution, schools, libraries, bars, resturants etc. is shutting down the next 14 days, and people over 60 are being told to stay home. I can't believe this. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
