I wasn't sure if they were going to make it but it was good to see how busy they were. On a side note, how has there not been a shortage of to go containers? The uptick in sales(in my area) haven’t been that massive to warrant a shortage in to go containers. Chilled/insulated transport boxes have shot up immensely on the other hand.

candyman93 Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Something I feel gets forgotten or not brought up much is the long term physical ramifications. Just because you survive the virus, doesn’t mean your life expectancy looks promising. You could easily be looking at heart and kidney problems. Also a pretty trashed immune system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I literally had to delete Pandora because of every ad. Every. Single. Company. Says. The. Exact. Same. Thing. "Now more than ever, (insert company slogan)." "We care." "We did this (donation that is a tax write off)." I hate every single company that did this. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason it doesn't get brought up is because we don't know what long term ramifications there are or how common they are. The virus hasn't even been around long enough to give us any idea on that one. Edited May 10, 2020 by rob_shadows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, a lot of people are avoiding getting tested due to discrimination. The man accused of mass spreading in the club had all of his information leaked for the public to see due to contact tracing. The club was a gay club so there's been a fear that discriminatory crimes may tick up. Thus people who were at the club neglecting to get tested out of fear of having all their personal info leaked for the whole country to see. This has prompted the government to close all bars and clubs in Seoul. Im not sure if it's become a country wife ban yet.

Seems like a small issue, relatively, that will likely be cleared up soon. They've had a really good handle on this for a month now. Like realllly good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are never getting anywhere near South Korea numbers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is overkill though. All the commercials are about it, radio ads, ads on apps, billboards, social media... just trying to escape it where I can. It’s really starting to piss me off idk lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
