The opposite of not being a racist is not a political correct person.
What I wanted to point out is, that many other countries kind of acted arrogant when the situation unfolded in Italy, as if it couldn't happen to them, because Italy is like close to being a failed state.
It's hard for me to express the attitude towards Italy during the beginning of the crisis. If you see a friend tumble, catch him, not watch him fall.

We currently have 249 cases with 2 deaths.
Apparently Chinese experts who are here at the moment said that we'll have to wait 30 days to see it calm down. After that another 30 days to see it fall down. So they pretty much said we'll have this situation/measures for at least two months which is horrible.

My company announced 10% layoffs across the board 
Thats nothing, my company laid off 30%, I know some companies that laid off 50% or 80% in certain work places (retail, hotel and restuarant services). Crazy thing is it hasnt gone full crisis mode yet health wise in Sweden, so imagine that its financially drastic already in early stages, how it will be later.
Right know my company has us working 1-2 days a week (I have 8 days straight of not working with pay), with no more then 2-3 people at the same time. basically working 30-40% of our shifts, with almost full hours pay (7.5% reduction in salary). Prolly why they fired so many temp/extra/new hires/"unnecessary" personnel staff, so they can afford to keep us in these limited schedules. Not that they are paying bulk of it, the goverment is moving in to cover 60% of our salaries to stay home more.

my brother is self-employed and works in tourism. all of his contracts and pre-contracts were cancelled, he's got zero income for the next ~2 months. at least the government suspended all credits and mortgages, so his liquidity is okay-ish for the moment.
I still believe Brazil numbers will surpass everyone else once it hits the poor “bairros” and favelas. Imagine 10 people being forced to quarantine under the same roof in a 1 bedroom 300sf house.
And this motherfucker is making sure if they won’t die from the virus they can out of hunger, he just passed a bill where companies won’t pay any salaries for 4 months.
Trump is stupid and evil as they come but this guy is something else. I’m 100% against everything this guy represents with every fiber of my being. He’s a disgusting pig.

I hate headlines like that. NY actually ramped up testing and that’s the result. It doesn’t mean 38% more people got it overnight.

Also of note Cuomo said his team is working on a plan to restart the economy at some point in the near future, as shutting down the whole thing is not sustainable. He talked about isolating vulnerable people, letting those who recovered back to work, etc.
