    More good news! Not that rate of infection going up is a bad thing, quite the opposite, it's excellent news. Now herd immunity will be reached more quickly. Just keep VOLUNTARY measures in place for the vulnerable and it's all good.

    Open up! Sack that panic merchant.

    The rate at which the coronavirus infection is spreading in Denmark has increased since the country opened schools and kindergartens, but not enough to stop the decline in the number of people infected.

    According to a new analysis from Denmark's infectious diseases agency SSI, the so-called reproduction rate has increased from 0.6 to 0.9, still below the crucial figure of 1, which means that each infected person on average infects on average one other over the course of their illness.

    "There is no indication that there is an actual acceleration of the epidemic," the agency wrote in a status report.

    The "guided by the science" people are telling us, according to their models, it's time to flatten the climate curve. 200 billion people will boil to death and die FROM "the global warming" if we don't act now. Which also means 200 billion people will die WITH COVID19.

    I wish these cunts would just cut to the chase, tell us how much cash they want and then fuck off. But we have to go through the whole song and dance routine so they can pretend they are stuffing their pockets for our benefit.

    More people are mixing and so more people are getting infected. Obviously.
    But how many of them are getting ill? Is there a huge surge of kids getting ill or needing hospital treatment? It's not mentioned if so.
    Because this thing is not dangerous to them, unless they have other health conditions.
    If they do, or if people in their family do, then sure, keep them shielded. Otherwise let them run free.
    That does mean more will get infected, as NQ said - good, more people with antibodies. Unless they're all getting seriously ill, what's the issue?

    Here's an idea for the new normal. No more shitty automated call handling systems with endless wait times and 80s porn film music. How about humans talking to humans? Plenty of unemployed now, so hire human beings to help human beings. Like the old normal used to be before it became normal to provide absolute shite customer service. I wish I could record the racket I'm having to listen to at the moment, interrupted every 30 seconds by a recorded message telling me how much they value me. They definitely value my money, because that was processed efficiently and without delay.

    Managed to escape furlough. I think we’re just moving forward with 7 of us for the time being, busy as fuck now without all the furloughed staff. Which is good I suppose as it’s keeping the boredom at bay.

    My job has just continued a pace from home. Always fucking mentally busy.

    Not like the old days where I spent all day on this place and did all my work on a Monday morning.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    I guess it's good to have enough work to keep going.

    They're keeping us on rotation for the furlough which I suppose is the fair thing to do.

    Does free up time to further down the rabbit hole with Animal Crossing.
