If we beat Italy to #1, which looks likely, from where we started and virtually no testing in most of the country that will be truly insane.
The latest in Europe
European leaders are discussing the best response to the growing pandemic in a video summit, as official figures record the growing death toll across the continent.
Here are the latest developments:
- Italy’s death toll rose by 662 to a total of 8,165, and the total number of infected rose to 80,539. It’s a mixed picture: while the one-day rise in deaths is slightly lower than in previous days, the rate of infection has risen again. As the BBC’s Rome correspondent Mark Lowen puts it, “still a mountain to climb”
- A total of 4,089 people have died in Spain , with 56,188 confirmed cases across the country. The Spanish parliament has agreed to extend the country’s state of emergency until at least 12 April to tackle the outbreak – but the newspaper El Pais reports that new testing kits sent over by China were not working
- Belgium recorded its highest numbers for the spread of the virus in a single day. In just 24 hours it recorded 1,298 new confirmed cases, bringing the total to 6,235. The death toll so far is 220. Health officials told the BBC they are preparing for an “explosion in patient numbers”

He understands perfectly and, charitably, he doesn’t care in the slightest. Uncharitably, he finds the fact gratifying. People can decide for themselves which of those horses they want to back, based on their knowledge of Inso0.
Welp - NHS confirming it will be overloaded by end of weekend. Others will be sent to 4,000 capacity Excel Centre, London adjacent London City Airport to enable Army to chopper in CV cases

As someone who has extensive experience on both the tenant and landlord side of property management, it’s hilariously easy to spot the slumlord in the room by the way they talk about their tenants. A good landlord focuses on providing their tenants with a quality living experience which in turn attracts good tenants and the ability to have a friendly relationship with your tenants.

I think she was a national finalist. She made a video from the pageant with her mom and dad for my friend. Nice people.
She’s great but not even my favorite, so good luck!

Yup, yup. CR had the same problem with some of the same tests but it looks like it’s been sorted thankfully.

That’s a deep cut LOL
Meanwhile here in Ohio people seem very determined to confirm every stereotype possible by continuing to gather in large groups, refusing to social distance, calling the whole thing fake news, complaining about the lockdown, making fun of assistance recipients and otherwise validating my decision to GTFO ASAP.

DeWine is doing an extremely good job at managing this crisis and I just feel like he’s going to get demolished in the next election.
