All immigration needs to stop everywhere. All travel needs to stop everywhere. As if the world can’t take a two week staycation.

Yes, in the end their stupidity effects them and their loved ones the most.

One of them admitted on another thread that he’s a stock broker.

Which explains, to me at least, the anger involved.

I can’t say I’d not be angry too.

Imagine the abuse he/she takes from clients every day.

It’s like musical chairs.

Only there’s enough chairs, just sit and wait for the music to start again.

Dunno if pets get prescribed anti malaria meds.

I know some antibiotics used for pets are the same as what we get, only difference is the dosage.

As to online purchases, I think that door may be shut.

MALAYSIA - LOCKDOWN

Malaysia has warned of a fresh wave of COVID-19 infections, if people do not follow the tough new restrictions that came into force on March 18. The two-week partial lockdown includes travel restrictions, business and school closures, as well as a ban on large-scale gatherings. Foreigners are not allowed to enter the country. Malaysians cannot travel between states unless with a police permit, but that has since been relaxed after police were inundated by requests.

“Tonic water contains no more than 83 mg of quinine per liter—a much lower concentration than the 500 to 1,000 mg in the therapeutic dose of quinine tablets. “

So, in other words, order your gin & tonics 10 at a time :)

Yes have not heard any politician talk about the self employed. The pols don’t seem to understand the real economy, they think everything is some kind of closely regulated business. Food trucks employing mostly family for example and countless other examples. For the record my income stream is all over the place, Social Security, semiretired so still small check from employer (not a type of business to be shut down but would be badly hurt by economic downturn), small part time government job (will not be impacted), IRA (still growing on it’s own but holding my breath on that), income from specialized projects on side (old job related) that is disappearing fast now. At least I can see first hand many things.

BEIJING -

Beijing reopens former Sars epidemic hospital to cope with imported Covid-19 cases. 43 cases reported in Beijing.

Xiaotangshan hospital in Beijing, with 1600 beds, to re-open. (but I thought they were closing all the pandemic hospitals??)

Treatment is probably for foreign nationals only. No treatment available for Chinese citizens other than party members.

Corrupt liberal ‘elites’ the world over sold ‘citizenship’ exchange for votes and cheap labor. Step one is to shut down the world’s corrupt ‘elites’...

from internet:

“OTC quinine and quinine sulfate have historically been used for muscle cramps, particularly nocturnal leg cramps. ... Consequently, the FDA banned all OTC sales of quinine in 1994. Prescription quinine formulations are still available but are highly regulated”

Unemployment would be $1405/mo. at 4.35 wk/mo. Many live off that in normal times. OTOH, many getting laid off have big rent and mortgages believing things would never change. Those who have paid off their mortgages, cars and credit cards will be ahead of the game. It pays to plan ahead.

Maybe they can get in on the lower interest rates but that’s still money going out.

We need good info on stuff besides where to buy high priced freeze dried food.

Do it yourself type info.

For example, many years ago, mr. mm got a RO filter for the house. We can make our own purified water. THAT sort of thing is very useful.
