Wonder if Trump will try and postpone the US election until 2021. It's like the rule book for many things has been thrown out

Interesting. I doubt Biden has any chance at this stage, but everything is changing so quickly

Is it a good time to put a POTUS age limit of 70 years and reduce the minimum age below the current 35???

Coronavirus may say 'yes'

    To be fair is that also due to an increase in testing? (Not a Donald apologist whatsoever) 

    I think the bigger statistic is always going to be the exponential increase in people dying, that's maybe where the idiots at Bondi might actually start taking notice.

    EDIT
    I live in the UK and Boris Johnson's plan has been to say to people the moment you notice any symptoms that are consistent with the virus you self isolate rather than get tested. This means getting a gauge on how many cases the UK actually has is a difficult thing to gather.

    these germs are going to be around a long time

    yeah, interesting

    but.....confirmed cases is so misleading as most people who contract the virus are not tested.

    and china's reported numbers lately just look too low too quickly

    only reliable figure is possibly number of deaths, certainly the mortality figures are useless (deaths/confirmed cases)

    Are the schools still open in Australia or are they still having meetings and being interviewed by news crews every hour?

    My Daughter is a primary teacher, she is going to teach tomorrow, as there are many loopholes to cover. She only had four students today, but was given an extra class to look after. No body knows what’s happening!

    I've read a few reports where it's been acknowledged that in the West, actual cases, including asymptomatic, are probably x10 or x20 than what's being reported. Perhaps Germany excepted, as they have a pretty agressive "test anything that moves" approach, but for the rest of us, just add a zero.

    Trump is catching onto coronavirus.

    And he's recommending patrons use PPE to cover your feaces.   Er mouth.

    Some doctors in the US are already successfully treating corona virus patients.  This will all be over soon.

    Lets get back to work , life and to footy.   Lockdown is ridiculous.

    Lockdown is absolutely NOT ridiculous, its imperative. I hope its over soon, but i think we are looking at a minimum 3 months until any positive signs. The sooner everyone gets their head around it, the better. 

    The positives out of this wont be felt for a while but they will be plentiful, life will be balanced, people will rest and will connect, pollution is down, oceans are cleaner.

     

    Stay safe.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
