In Minnesota, all bars, restaurants, theaters, barbershops, cinemas, and anywhere there can be 10 or more people in close proximity are closed today effective 5:00 PM. They are also looking at the transmit system. Lots of people will be out. The state has instituted an emergency unemployment insurance program for people who are affected. I am guessing the food stamp program will also be included.

Ontario - state of emergency declared!

Company business being dramatically impacted. We are pulling all field force out. Big CC at noon!

rough times

Really rough for everyone  @Villagebelle, how are you doing and them grandchildren? 

I think they about to put in a curfew in NY...already have one in Jersey

Quarantined man manages to fly out of Guyana

they too busy counting votes

I think it's Covid 19

They running low on drugs and ventilators, hospitals could be over crowded soon. 

Serious times. I am holding out at home for a few weeks hoping for the best.

Liberal thinking ppl causing this. 

Causing is not important now, it is already here. The issue is to limit the spread and elimination!!

@Nehru

No online teaching...

Starting Thursday all classes will be done On=line. No students will be allowed on Campus for the next 6 weeks at least. I am not in the teaching business so I can just check E-mail.

What are the symptoms?

It starts with a fever. Most experience fatigue and a dry cough. Some have muscle pain and have trouble breathing. Other possible symptoms include headache, sore throat, runny nose or diarrhea. Sneezing isn’t listed as a symptom by federal and provincial health authorities.

What should I do if I have symptoms?

Consult the self-assessment tool on the Ontario government website. Contact Telehealth Ontario at 1-866-797-0000 or your local public health unit.

Don’t visit an assessment centre unless you have symptoms. Do not call 911 unless it is an emergency.

Ontario’s chief medical officer of health says unless people have severe symptoms or a medical emergency, simply stay at home while waiting for a Telehealth response.

The response, he says, will usually be, “Stay home and self-monitor.”

Just spoke to a recruiter, he said there is a huge spike for IT resources driven by educational institutions as remote learning takes center stage!

Lots of closures here.  Work and schools/colleges are mostly online. Just follow the rules and you will be fine.

Stay away from nasty people and you will be fine.

Ok Bibi, I am staying away from you.

@Amral - hubby and I are doing good bai. 

both of us now fully retired and taking life easy. it's a relief to be out of the rat-race!!

Grandkids have now multiplied to 5 - 3 boys and 2 girls!!

Nana & Nanee to 2!

Aja and Ajee to 3!

From 2 we are now 11 and loving every minute that we spend with the family especially the grands. Adore them!

How about you?

you good?

how many grands now?

I still check in on the Forum every now and then, especially to stay updated on the Guyana political situations.

Lots of new members which make for some very interesting read.

 Miss the old gang though - changes are inevitable and life goes on.

Heyyyy VB..I am from the gang...I keep the word "old" out of it though. I'll be in Kirkland Lake from this Fri taking care of the two grands also...they are quite a handful .3 and1 1/2..Hope you feel sorry for me.

@cain - hey "---timer", I see you are still around causing trouble!

so you are a grampy now, and babysitting too! enjoy those grands as they grow up fast fast.  my 1st grandson is going to be 13 this year and is as tall as I am!

no need to feel sorry for you bai - just hug them up, give them plenty kisses and spoil them in every possible way, and then send them home to their mom & dad!  that's the privilege of being grampa!

Ours come for sleep-overs all the time and my hubby give the grands whatever they ask for - sugar and technology fixes all day long and even just before bed time! I feed them all the dhal, rice, rotis and curries that they can eat!

teach them some of the good manners and common-sense stuff we learned growing in Guyana. 

these are the things they remember as they grow up.

VB, I'm staying with them for awhile, I can't get away..cork duck, hehe. I love it though.

Might be early to ask. But I wonder how all this will affect the American election. What are the odds that the election date might have to be change? 

November 03, 2020 elections in the U_S_of_A cannot be postponed by Donald Trump or by legislation.

Election will take place on November 3.  And results will be available later that night. Unlike some other shithole countries who are still trying to rig three weeks after the election date.

This virus is deadly and it spreads very fast. The world in entering an uncertain future on several fronts because this virus will be back as a mutated virus in the future.

Earlier you asked me about reading a topic in the Bible. That one is not mentioned in explicit terms but what is happening in the world is written in Isaiah 26, verses 20 and 21. 

A word of caution, whenever you return from outside, immediately drink a very hot beverage. It will kill any virsus loged in your throat. Sleep as much as you can, allow the body to repair itself.

Do you think they are asking for aid for themselves or is it for the American people who the President is supposed to assist and protect? Idiot trump doesn't need anyone to vilify him, he does it to himself because he is a jackass.

Bai is wuh stupidness yuh deh pon urly marnin’. Wah mi mean, Trump did not determine the allocation but now they want him to overwrite and give them more. 

Cuomo championing SDNY going after Trump and family personally and now they asking special favors.  Trump should be wary of another “quid-pro-quo” accusation.  He should stay out of any direct involvement in awarding funds.

Let Preet Bruhahaha file a case in federal court fuh mo paisa!

It is not Trump's money. It's the taxpayers' money. This has nothing to do with Dems or Repubs. Let's take care of OUR people. Death or sickness does not see color or party affiliation.
