I haven't read this yet but if you have some time, this Paper discusses eating strange animals in China and viruses.
The sender told me they predicted a SARS like pandemic would happen again

I am yet to find one on the US Army having a biological weapon to do the same but it would be unusual for the Chinese State media to get it wrong

I thought that was talking about the global stockmarkets

Here's one about economies: https://edition.cnn.com/2020/03/16/econ ... index.html

Interesting that China's retail sales were down 20.5%. Ours are probably up! Its a dub rub led recovery!

Adelaide has a confirmed transmission from a teacher to student.

Surely that's it for schools now?!

Is that Unley again

Surely an All Boys Catholic school

3000 tests yesterday alone

What constitutes a test? Just taking temperatures and asking questions about where you’ve been, or is that genuine clinical tests?

"Trumpy called it a Chinese Virus, so the yanks in the war room must be thinking that way.

One of his cronies actually called it the KUNG FLU

Must admit, it made me giggle

My understanding it constitutes a positive for COVID-19, so a genuine test.

Which, given the low rate of testing in SA, means there's probably way more than 50 positives currently in the State.

I spoke with my GP today and she said they don’t have enough test kits (or whatever they are) .. Actually inferred that they don’t have anywhere near the amount they will likely need.

Mrs Jimmy got a sore throat this week + I came home from OS, with a dry cough,14 days before.
She rang the doctor and they said not enough reason to get tested.
Fortunately, 4 days later she’s getting better + no fatigue or other symptoms

Bloke at work has had the full year after coming back from Bali. They take a throat swab from somewhere well past the gag point and a nasal swab which he said felt like it was up near the brain...

Doesn't sound like a test i want to be lining up for in a hurry

Turns out that Turnbull's NBN isn't equipped for people using it

Streaming companies such as Netflix and Stan have been asked by communications minister Paul Fletcher to consider reducing the amount of data required for streaming videos over the internet as the national broadband network plans for large swathes of the population working from home.

Yeah, who could have guessed that...

Streaming companies such as Netflix and Stan have been asked by communications minister Paul Fletcher to consider reducing the amount of data required for streaming videos over the internet as the national broadband network plans for large swathes of the population working from home.

Looks like the UK & Europe have the same issue.

The company overnight agreed to reduce the bitrate for video streams across Europe and the United Kingdom for the next 30 days after discussions with EU commissioner Thierry Breton.

“Following the discussions between commissioner Thierry Breton and Reed Hastings – and given the extraordinary challenges raised by the coronavirus – Netflix has decided to begin reducing bit rates across all our streams in Europe for 30 days,” a spokeswoman told Guardian Australia.

Italy copped it again in the last 24 hours - Just under 6000 new cases, just over 600 deaths.
