Communist Thoughts posted:a HUGE part of the western response is explained by thinking chinese science is fake and lies Yes I'm unhappy to say it but in this instance I'm suspicious that it's a combination of ignoring foreign experience and fear of staff catching the illness (which is important but there is a balance and a point at which you have to accept risk).

Where are today's figures? The inconsistency of when they're reported is really frustrating.

Bardeh posted:Just got informed I'm being put on furlough - last day's work tomorrow. I'm all for it tbh, I won't be getting as much money, but I'm not spending bugger all at the minute so it evens out. Money to sit at home and play nintendo sounds OK to me. Just found out we're going to skeleton crew (80%+ of company on furlough) and the company will make up the difference between the government payout and full salary, which is incredibly bloody generous. No idea how long it can last as business has dived off a cliff, but shows not all companies are being arseholes. Annoyingly I have to be one of the skeletons for now, but to be honest I think I'd go totally mad if I couldn't work at all so it's probably for the best.

One thing I don't understand about Corona: why does it transmit through eyes but not ears? I thought ears, nose, and throat were all linked? Where do eyes come in?

They are linked, but the virus is not motile and is absorbed through mucous membranes, not through skin. Your ears don't have mucous membranes in them, and the link to the respiratory system is internal, the other side of the eardrum. Even if someone spat in your ear (ew) there wouldn't be a direct route for infection through the ears.

Like Noah seeing the rainbow, I have seen the sign that shows us we are going to be okay. As well as trivialities like eggs and toilet paper, my local Tesco Metro had in stock today... I can barely keep my hands from shaking as I type this... Original Source Mint Shower Gel!

Seeing it on the shelf gave me more of a jump than the Andrex just next to it. Fortunately my quixotic attempts to replicate it/make a cheaper version than Bronner's Peppermint, which is even better but works out more expensive than unicorn spunk, mean I have a 5-litre bottle of unscented shower gel sitting in my bathroom, so that was one thing I was never going to run out of, but having the OG stuff back on the shelves feel like God smiling upon these benighted isles just for once.

Kind of annoyed at all the reports of UCL developing brand new completely never-before-seen respirators in three and a half minutes, no red tape needed. They reverse-engineered an existing device and figured out how to make it with their existing tech. Which is still really cool! But it feels like its being spun in kind of a jingoistic way.

Dominic Raab is a terrible orator isn't he. Sounds like an undergrad winging a presentation. Most likely because, despite the expensive education, he's actually thick as poo poo.
