Feel for you, my cousin got it but she recovered. In her case the hit was more in her psycho than body. You start thinking who got it because of you in the past two weeks, and even the people you love are involved. I not even mention the rest of the story....

My old parents in Italy are in risk, and I can not do nothing for them, I am now located in Germany (...) .
It's horrible.

Report from a friend of the family who drive lorries Europe<>UK has said they have stopped the drivers and tractor units.  The docks are now loading the trailer units onto ferries with tugs only.  No citation though.

Spoke to my daughter about a half hour ago. She had a few aches, tired etc and the temperature was up yesterday, but now it has come down. She is relatively young and very fit (runs half marathons), never eats junk food, has no underlying conditions and more recently (probably a good thing) was forced to work about over an hour in each direction thanks to strikes. So I guess her immune system is very good. She wont come back to Australia as she is a French dual citizen working and is well settled there and knowing what is going on here, she might have difficulty getting back. She book Etihad, but the airline is overwhelmed and you cannot get through. Prior to the lockdown, she said you cannot get rice at the big supermarkets. So she walked into a small Chinese grocery store - no problems. 5kg bags of rice and whatever are plentiful. She cannot go out now, but is fine. The French seem to be similar to us Australians - the herd mentality.

I am fearful of this massive cash splash by these panicking western governments. Economics 101: Too much money, not enough goods = inflation. High inflation leads to high interest rates.

Absolutely no doubt.
Countless healthy people and kids will get it and have few if any symptoms and just brush it off, never to be tested.
Maybe in a decade they'll get a routine blood test or something and be told "Hey, you had the coronavirus".

This university dropout with no medical qualifications whatsoever warned of the virus pandemic with incredible insight... 5 YEARS AGO!
