I'm very happy I live in Norway, where we have a strong economy, and a HUGE buffer in the form of the largest investment fund in the world. The government has put in place lots of measures to help especially SMB's, by postponing taxes +++ and an emergency package of 100 billion NOK. In addition, large corporations can get loans guaranteed by the state to keep running. They've also changed the rules for people who lose their jobs, both temporarily and permanently, so they get paid more for an extended period of time. But these are the kind of measures that need to be in place in order to get this quarantine to work, and to ensure that there are still jobs out there when this cools down.

And if you're from the north, I'd imagine all those polar nights would've made a helluva training camp for lockdown...!

Wrestlemania is behind closed doors at the WWE performance centre

Seems like a bizarre idea. I get closed doors for real sports but in wrestling the crowd tend to interact quite a lot dont they? I mean, who will cheer when the Rock struts out and asks if they can smell what he's cooking!?

Not really high on the list of coronovirus related issues though is it to be fair

Funny this has happened since the US and China’s squabbles over the trade deal

China now ok, the rest of the world in panic and on the brink of recession, job done by China, 400% this is their doing

I read some other China theory the other day how all the major foreign owned companies in China sold up a huge amount of their stocks in the initial price crash, then China, knowing the worst was already behind them and that things weren't as serious as they led everyone on the outside to believe, then bought up a majority of these stocks to take them back under Chinese control.

Or something like that, probably, almost definitely gonad*s but everyone loves a conspiracy.

Superb.
And people say it cannot work!
 
We have around 1400 cases in Norway, but testing is officially limited to key personnel and people that need hospitalization. Everyone else is told to just stay at home if they think they might have it. The number is probably a lot higher.

I've been at home for almost a week now with symptoms. Started with a massive headache, then a mild fever for a few days and it's a little harder to breathe than usual, but I'll probably never know if this was it.
 
Early days, but some news which seems good.

Hope you are doing okay, buddy.
 
Good to see they’re still giving away City Am outside stations this morning. The guy can suck up everyone’s coughs and then pass them on.
