Is that because social gatherings at night are more dangerous than day time gatherings or because the later it gets and the more people drink the more likely everyone is too kiss and lick each other?
Not sure if it's true but I read before that our PM has banned gatherings of more than 500 people. It's a big call if he did do it and great timing several hours after the FIA cancelled the Grand Prix.
We have an air base about 5 miles away so I see crazy ass aircraft all the time. It's p cool. They do a public show every few years where they bust out the fancy stuff with the fancy moves, and damned if I don't tear up when I'm standing in one of the historical hangars with photos of genuine American heroes plastered on the walls, pieces of their life's work lining dozens of tables.
Realistically we are at less of a threat here in Australia so while it does appear we are moving slow there is reason. But things will move forward eventually. The school told us today that that have no intention of shutting down until the Chief Health Officer demands it and at this stage that's very unlikely.
Shutting down schools doesn't make much sense with Coronavirus.
No, and that's why they are constantly sending updates out to schools with information about what stages they are at in the local communities. Like businesses if someone in the school contracts the bug they will look at how the quarantine will be managed but they wont shut all the schools in one area just because it's discovered at one school. The problem is that schools (government ones at least) need to follow the CHO's words to the letter, but some of those parents who hoard bog roll still think they know better and are keeping their kids from schools voluntarily.
The silver lining of this virus is that children are the least affected. In China only 2% of all cases were under 19 years old. Shutting down schools would only overburden adults who rely on school to free them up for work. At least here in Australia we have better options to take paid time off, I can only imagine how fucked it will be if they shut down schools en masse in a place like the US.
