Coronavirus crisis open thread - March

oh i get it. That is meant to be a thumbs up lol I will change it

I don’t know whether the demographic stats are changing. Perhaps younger people are going to start getting hit more in nations that have higher levels of obesity. The Italians are considerably less porky than the Americans or the Brits.

Cheers, although 50 feels horrific at the moment.

Well, our flights to Canada just got cancelled. I’m waiting to hear from the government about extending the expiry date on my wife’s permanent residence visa but I figure we’re not going until July now.

Yeah anyone traveling the to their homelands heads up: someone I know who was heading back to the States said their flight straight up disappeared off the website. Like, had a ticket, logged on for online checkin, and the flight didn’t exist anymore.

Well, perhaps not quite always

There is actually a mask reference at the end in that scene but its been cut from this version

Foreman “Do these work?”

She doesn’t have permanent residency yet, so I might have explained that wrong.

She’s applied and it’s been approved, but she’s supposed to enter Canada by the end of April for the residency to kick in–if she misses that date, then the offer of permanent residency is cancelled and we need to go through the whole process of applying again.

We can’t even go to the south pole now.

reference is missing me :laughing:

Some intrepid global traveler and covid sufferer hit the “south pole” as part of his world tour, apparently
