MechEng Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 1 hour ago, maniac said: WFH till next week for now. Originally was happy but now just came back from a grocery store it looks like I visited the set from Zombieland. Empty shelves. Can’t go to a movie or any where else, No cricket matches or sporting events. Good bless PSL @MechEng fine for now but it will start getting on nerves. It’s not like I want to go out all the time in this weather( South Desi genes , 16 degrees C is still miserable weather for me) but just the thought of not being able to do any outdoor activity is kind of making be anxious Even walking outside is risky?

Can people in India access it by using a Italian VPN? I dont wanna pay for porn.

Real McCoy Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Today in Chennai, I witnessed some govt guy spraying sanitizer over bus stops and pavements. I don't usually say this but thanks to Chennai Corporation for being proactive in these times . That's probably a good start as commuters, mall goers, shopping centers, movies are all usually packed with people. They have been encouraging people to wash their hands, don't go out.

Some effort has been made Whatever reports we are getting are just the official figures. I think the actual figures could be lot higher. The government knows a lot more than public and they will not reveal facts so people might panic. If the Indian government has put measures to ban schools, malls, public events for this whole month which is unprecedented as far as I could remember , this could be a very serious disease and not just like a new version of flu, like some reports are making you believe. Try to stay indoors as much as possible and be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with this scare and most people have seen whats going on in Italy, Germany, USA and obviously China. I had to renew the license and had to go to the RTO. There were your odd coughs you can't do anything about it. Btw don't panic. March is usually the time of colds and coughs in Chennai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Autonomous Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I think India's response has been fair including ban on foreign entry. Data Analysis and Intelligence should be used to trace travellers in past month and their contacts. In Pakistan, i think government is under reporting things. I hope summer comes down hard early and it turns true that virus is not able to survive in summers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
