Look at this desk
Isn't it neat?
Wouldn't you think my home office’s
complete?
Wouldn't you think I'm a girl
Who doesn’t have COVID19?
Look at this pantry
Treasures untold
Just how much TP can one cabinet hold?
Look at my stockpile you'd think
(Sure) she's got everything
I've got soup cans and ground beef aplenty
I've got cheese-its and fruit snacks galore
(You want chicken kebabs?
I got twenty)
But who cares?
Covid’s here,
I want more
I want to be where the groceries are
I want to see
want to see 'em stocking
Separated by at least
(What is it again?) six feet
In quarantine you don't get too far
Masks are required for interacting
Strollin' along down an empty
(What's that word?) street
Out where we’d talk
And get work done
Back when delivery pizza was fun
Breathing so free
Wish I could be
Part of our world
What would I give
If I could live
Back in my office?
What would I pay
To spend a day
Without my kids?
Angry orange man
Can’t understand
Why we’d want Universal Heathcare
Broken system
Excuse switch’n
They’ve got no plan
And I’m ready to know what the CDC knows
Ask 'em some questions
And get no answers
What's a virus, and what are these
(What's the word?) germs?
When's it my turn?
to get a test
And is this really our governments best?
No quarantine
Wish I could be
Part of our world

This is the reality about #coronavirus for disabled people in Australia and this is what needs to happen, to follow up the excellent messaging by @sammostyn and @billbowtell on #qanda.

This thread describes the raging crisis for disabled Australians around me. #auspol An image of a cluster of cells, representing Coronavirus.
2/ Firstly, the issue of a joined up response.We do not have a disability sector that works hand in hand with the health sector. We do not have access to health facilities, nor a good, working #NDIS. We are less likely to be able to access medical services when NOT in a pandemic.
3/ That is one of the assumptions that non disabled people have - that we are somehow looked after.Some facts.There IS now data, held by the @NDIS, but that data is used secretively by @dssgovau and is not used to inform emergency responses. We do not have supports of most kinds.

So this is a thread for friends and colleagues in the US on how fast the Coronavirus spreads. You just can't imagine.
Last sunday, 580 positives, today, a week later, 6.200 positives, and the country is in state of alarm, a pre-military situation.

#COVIDー19 #COVID2019 #Covid_19
So what happened?

Last sunday, march 8th, no one could imagine this today.
It was the demonstrations for women day all across the country and life was normal.

Some voices saying the demonstrations should be cancelled, but they happened.
On monday 9th positives start to spike. Mainly in Madrid.

Tuesday 10th Madrid local Government decides to lock down schools and universities for 15 days.

Remote working is recommended but not mandated.

In face of many EU countries going into a lockdown, this is my attempt to understand British approach to #COVID-19… /1
Also checkout: bit.ly/2IIsLhs
This curve represents a number of people that will require hospitalisation due to COVID-19 over time. Without any interventions, the number of people who do not have access to hospital beds is over one million and the end of “hospital bed crisis” comes on day 71. /2
Scenario 1:
On day 1 (around 500 cases) we introduce a lockdown that reduces exposures 15x. 140,000 people do not have access to hospitals when needed and the end of “hospital bed crisis” comes on day 710… (That’s two years of lockdown!) #FlattenTheCurve /3

Starting day 16 of aggregating #COVID19 news in Iran
picking up from last night

The usual caveat applies

Gilan's positive signs were sadly short-lived. Health Ministry representative in Gilan states that [after a pause] there is continued growth of #COVID19 in the province and without self-isolation, it will get much worse.

So those running our governments can be held accountable in the future for their reckless prioritising of profit over public interest re: #COVIDー19 I want to start a discussion about what action should have been taken to prevent the spread of this virus.
Bringing in people who have commented on this. @GreenRupertRead @GeorgeMonbiot @GretaThunberg @ExtinctionR @RogerHallamCS21

Below I will list some of the obvious action I think should have happened to stop the spread of #COVIDー19.
1) To me the most obvious immediate action should have been an international moratorium on international travel and flying until the situation had been brought under control in China. At least a structure for this should have been put in place.
