Hopefully medication that treats the symptoms are available to citizens soon then
The pair of them have had this hard-to-shift cough and cold symptoms for weeks now. Before all this I said to them it was because their heating was on too high - it was like a sauna, but now I think it's a case of them being locked up together. They are in isolation at home anyway, and will be for weeks yet.

You are now only allowed to walk alone, the only one
You don't know where it goes but it's only you, you walk alone
Ah ah ah ah ah

Tell that to the spastics in the park today together walking around and talking in groups of 5, 6, 7 or more (with their spawn of course). People are dumb as shit. It should be made temporarily legal to be able to hit them with a big stick (of shame).

Our Minister President Volker Bouffier just communicated that the restriction of groups of five from few days ago is tightened and you are now supposed to walk alone but if you never walk alone? What then?

I’ve been thinking about this, in today’s world some people really need to have the stupid beat out of them.

What do you think we should do? longer than two weeks, no weeks and go back to normal and suffer through it like another virus, etc? For whatever reason it doesn't bother me I still go out and do stuff, people are freaked out but I haven't gotten to that point yet.
You need to take this seriously. Thousands of death and 300k unctrollable infections should tell you its serious enough to take precautions.

As far as I know Germany has one of the oldest folks after Italy?
similar life expectancy, italy is around 83, germany a bit lower. i meant the average age of the ill people in these countries. italians are very social, and probably that kills so many old people there. germans probably manage to keep the distance better. but that's just my uneducated guess.

it might be the different methods too, but iirc @DAiDEViL wrote yesterday that it wasn't true.

Valerio. iirc said how Germans classify corona death only if a person dies without having other illness (that's how it says on wiki page). But Daidevil said that's false. So dunno what's the thing.

How come everyone thinks Russia and China are lying but not Germans? I mean, Russians do have a small number of infected and it's weird. But Germans have a huge number of infected and way too small death rate, which I find even more surprising than Russia/China situation.
Russia and China are regimes and the way you keep a regime going is by keeping people docile, under control. The way you keep people under control is by not giving them a reason to organize in big numbers and revolt. The way you that is by feeding them the illusion everything is fine and dandy. The way you create such an illusion during a crisis, of any kind, is by lying to them.

Onto Germany - they have one of the absolute best health-care systems in the world with top-notch expertese, not just organisationally, so having a lot of infected but few deaths makes sense. Also, a great health-care system means very few people would have existing underlying conditions that have gone untreated/uncured, and it is exactly people with such conditions that represent the risk group for coronavirus.
