Just a heads up.

As in are they still ongoing? I believe so, although on a much smaller scale. I'm not following it closely though so can't be much of a help.

Italy officially reports its numbers at around 17:00 CET every day...

Yep I loved it; haven't watched the new one yet either but really looking forward to it!

Not sure where that comes from but Lombardy numbers were always included in the total figures from the very start. You can see here how the deaths happened daily and how many of them were in Lombardy:

@Pyfish Race Across the World is back - have you caught the first episode of Season 2 yet?

Still doesn't beat this: Not sure if I want to laugh or cry

Yeah that was confusing. I was there thinking "wait - did he actually win the race on his debut with Toro Rosso???" Maybe a translation issue or something.

Yes I know But I'm still kind of excited to see what they come up with for this official product!

Never actually played that... but Motorsport Manager is great and it would be nice to have a similar official F1 product so I'm also interested to see what happens.

Nice.

The next two matchdays have been postponed.

Only 19 officially confirmed cases in the whole Indonesia, the government didn't disclose most of their locations. They are doing the same thing as most other countries in the region - test very few people and don't report much because their economy depends on tourism so they desperately try to brush it under the rug.

Austrian government just announced a ban for large public gatherings (over 500 outdoors & over 100 indoors). Sports events will continue but with no spectators behind closed doors.

Some better news. Patients with mild symptoms appear to be not infectious after 8 days. Also no spread through stool/urine/blood.

Breaking: ALL Italy to be placed on lockdown; just announced by the Italian Prime Minister and coming into effect on Tuesday morning.

I have no idea - but I think it's fair to say that things can change suddenly without any proper warning in advance so it's pretty impossible to tell...

I agree with the general idea of western societies tending to lean more towards individualism and eastern cultures towards collectivism (to a certain degree) - but I'd say it has been changing pretty fast in recent years and I personally wouldn't generalise too much. As an example related to this: just yesterday 80 Thai workers returning from South Korea were supposed to be escorted to a naval base for screening and quarantine but escaped the airport in Bangkok instead and are now being searched for.

I reckon he got a Peugeot.

I thought this was a very harrowing read. A testimony of Daniele Macchini, a doctor at the Humanitas Gavazzeni Clinics. His original post: The original transcript in Italian press: https://bergamo.corriere.it/notizie/cronaca/20_marzo_07/coronavirus-bergamo-medico-humanitas-facebook-situazione-drammatica-altro-che-normale-influenza-4fdf6866-6088-11ea-8d61-438e0a276fc4.shtml And here's the translation (spoiler tags because it's long):

I was just messing about I currently drive an old diesel myself.
