Cases 100,001-200,000 came in an 11 day spell. 200,001-300,000 took just 4 (up to yesterday).
Numbers as reported by the WHO.

Besides vitamins etc. can be bought at real pharmacies and supermarkets.
There's a reason H&B's motto is "stultus et eorum pecuniam sunt, mox dividitur" and it's something do with their £50 jars of honey.

Criteria for a good tramp:
- Netting
- Poles that support the netting are bent, so there is more give and they won't bang into poles
- springs covered

These domestic animals bear no responsibility for who they are and where they are. Humans put them there and humans can't wash their hands of the situation they created just because it has become inconvenient and a bit dangerous for them.

They are great for energy, but there are better things to be eating with out western sedentary lifestyle.
Hence why we are advised to eat more brown Rice/Pasta instead of it's white variety.

The rest are dead within a month, due to injury or starvation or both. And cats have one of the highest rates of adaptation of former pets.

Potatoes are popular because they can grow in shit soil and the tubars pack a lot of energy in such a small size which was great 200 years ago when most of our ancestors were slaves or indentured labourers.

But there is no leap of imagination that I'm capable of that could lead me to entertain the vaguest comprehension that Holland and fucking Barratt, snake oil purveyors extraordinaire could be considered essential goods and services in a medical fucking emergency.

Italy has enhanced penalties for those who violate the restrictions.
Patients with the virus who break quarantine can now be jailed for up to five years (presumably after they recover), while fines for more minor violations can now reach 3000 euro per incident.
As the lines of traffic to get on ferries continue to grow, Sicilians are getting increasingly annoyed at mainlanders who are trying to "escape" to the island. The mayor of Messina is threatening to interview each new arrival to determine whether they are in fact Sicilian residents.Last edited by ursus arctos; 24-03-2020, 23:22.
