They are called extroverts and the make up over 50% of the world's population. 

I'm glad I'm an introvert. I still go out on an occasional walk alone once in a while, keeping my distance from people, and to be honest, that's what I tried to do before Corona too. If I see a person I know from afar, and there's still a tiny little way to escape, I'm gonna take that shot.

In related (kind of news), we only get immediate family at my mums funeral. It will be in the church, blessing, straight out and burial. No frills. Absolutely gutted for her, but soon they’ll be people not even getting that, so you’ve got to take the positives.

Sorry to hear that and for your loss

Didn't know and I am really sorry to hear she passed away. Condolences to you and your family.

The virus is proving to be more fatal for men, so if you are a man who smokes has A blood type and are old than you're most likely to die, Sad 

:o I have a blood type.... not sure which one it is but I definitely have one... 

No hope for me then...

I hope we go in to lockdown to be honest. Crime figures in London dont appear to have changed. Driving to work yesterday I saw just as many cars as usual on the roads in areas like Streatham/Croydon/Mitcham and plenty of kids hanging round chicken shops. People just don't get the seriousness of being on the same trajectory as Italy.

Im quite introverted and love a night at home to myself, and I'm still going to work, but im already getting a bit bothered by the distancing. 

I think it's just the idea that you're not doing it by choice. Normally I'd go for a pint or some food once a week or two, and that's enough group socialising for me, so it's not on paper a huge adjustment at all. 

I think I'll need to be a bit disciplined and get back into some kind of schedule , like start reading a book a week, or practising an instrument every day for an hour, or going for a few more runs a week.

I pray that is bullshit. 

It's legit in the Sunday Times. Not the first time we've heard something akin to 'let people die', especially given what Boris said barely 2 weeks ago about 'sadly loved-ones will die' but get over it, pretty much. 

They're cold-hearted cunts.

I’ve lost all confidence in my country. 
State and federal government along with their chief health officers are wankers.

From midday tomorrow everything is basically shut. Except shops (we do need food).....and schools. But they’re allowing VICTORIA to finish a few days early (on Tuesday). 

I cant even type the other stuff he has suggested around schools. I just feel worthless.

First case in Yellowknife yesterday. Truly a pandemic if it's reached the Pacific islands first and now the Arctic.

Yes it is only a pandemic if it reaches those places.

Maybe that's the plan?

Amazing scenes here. A little respite in this environment of fear. People observing voluntary curfew impeccably and now everyone was suppose to clap, cheer or make noise for 5 minutes at 5 PM from their windows as a mark of respect to doctors, police, etc. It went on for 15 mins instead. Never have I seen anything like this.

@Mel81x how was it there?

What part of India are you from? If it's somewhere like Varanasi or New Delhi I'd imagine it must feel weird with the streets not being so crowded!

We get that every day at 8 PM too. We also have our unofficial anthem "Contigo Peru" playing in the meantime. I just wish people would sing along, would be the perfect touch xD
