Nice piece of fish posted:Yeah, it's a pretty unprecedented probable overreach of the authority in Smittevernloven, but notice nobody is complaining too loud about that... yet. It's gonna be interesting to see how this pans out over the next month or so. Still important to keep an eye on it, though! I was a bit worried yesterday because I hadn't had a chance to shop since Sunday, but my mom shopped before going to work, and after talking on the phone with my boss this morning she agreed that since I'm in two risk-groups (cancer patient and type-2 diabetes haver), I should stay home and then we'll have a talk on the phone in two weeks to see how things are going then. So I'm basically voluntarily self-isolating, although it's frankly not that different from my usual life since I've always been insular.

BigglesSWE posted:Sounds good. I'm glad it's not just a spur of the moment decision that seems reasonable (protect the kids!) but in reality causes more problems. Not only is it not a spur of the moment thing, it's a loving week late after basically all of the country's media and opposition politicians have been begging the PM to close down. Also, it's not to protect the kids. The kids will be fine. It's to protect the rest of the population.

I work for the goverment and it is a been long day of panicked meetings and confused memos at work today. Still not sure if i am supposed to WFH or not. This could`nt have happened at a worse time for us, WFH will hurt our productivity bad especially sine our IT systems just aren`t built to deal with more then a few employees working from home at any given time. My hope is that all this disruption will derail a stupendously ill conceived strategy the bosses had been planning to implement next week. If we cancel that it should cancel out the hit we will (would?) take from trying to WFH everyone. It really makes me question all the " efficency reforms" we have been going trough lately. So much talk about doing more for less but never about not doing stupid poo poo that fucks with our basic operations just to produce a nice statistic (please ignore the larger picture, look only at my new shiny number).

BigglesSWE posted:Yeah I’m no expert but I’m fine with it. Apparently health officials specifically asked them not to close the schools just yet so I’d listen to that. Well if that happens, I guess I can just stay on vacation until the peak have passed since I won’t be able to work anyways. Ironically, being in SE Asia feels safer at the moment than Sweden.

Speaking of which, apparently the Health Ministry has only bothered to translate (parts of) the Danish COVID-19 guidelines into English. A clinic had to have it translated into, for example, Arabic.

At least this crisis have a positive effect on reducing the number of Danes abroad. Just sad that Kastrup was collateral. Also, it wouldn’t surprise me if Norway and Denmark have overemphasized the travel restrictions due to the initial panic. Cause what is the long term plan? I have heard anything from summer or until August for the crisis to be over. At some point normal life has to resume, cause shutting down society will only work for so long.

Just sad that Kastrup was collateral. i suspect that they're shutting everything down to get the spread under control and then gradually resuming normal business - so quarantines for travellers, restrictions on public gatherings etc. it's much easier to go this way than it is to put things back in the box, after all. either that or they're planning full communist takeover of society, which i doubt but a man can dream

Alternatively they're planning a full atomization of society with the work-from-home class producing content in their apartments while the delivery class brings groceries to them like worker bees.

Dirk Pitt posted:So if the WHO is advising testing, why is Sweden saying no testing? Probably because we lack the infrastructure and supplies for doing wide scale testing. The biology thread has a couple of nerds in the US and the UK with anecdotes about hospitals requesting RNA extraction kits (needed for testing) from researchers. South Korea had the foresight to very early hand out licenses to three domestic companies to produce test kits. These test kits which presumably includes stuff like this (and are possibly ignoring some patents in the process). Maybe other countries relied too much on existing suppliers and that didn't work out.

rna extraction can absolutely be done without kits but it's a little tricky the shortfall in testing is incredibly weird to me, there's thousands of competent lab people and hundreds of lab facilities equipped to do this stuff in scandinavia alone. i still haven't heard anything about it - maybe i should send an email to a parliamentarian or something

If you do start doing on-demand testing every anxious or entitled gently caress is gonna swamp the place. If you can swing it better to have people stay at home and only test those who show up with really bad symptoms?

V. Illych L. posted:rna extraction can absolutely be done without kits but it's a little tricky I work in one such lab. We could presumably do the RNA-extraction and run the PCRs easily enough, but I would be extremely concerned with the quality control of us doing such a thing. Being a bioingeniør is a very specialized education for a reason, running consistent medical tests is pretty different from just doing lab research. They apparently are attempting to get an overview of which of the departments employees/student's have a background as bioingeniørs, though.

I do get the logic of not testing everyone but at the same time if I do have it. I'd like to be able to inform the people I've been in contact with so they can be careful with other people/old people.
