@Wonder,
I know, but it shows that a part of jw's are in full bunker mode now and will be disappointed soon.

(*) I have some history of humor treads, but this is true news. They all have to stop.
this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.
latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.
the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.
@Simon, you are right in everything you say.
It is not an usual situation. Here in the Netherlands, we are an extremely open society, but SARS-COVID numbers are up. We have to isolate to stop the spread. Economic will be down also the next years.

another very well researched programme by the blue envelope exploring stephen lett's bio and his family interest in property.
interestingly his parents were pioneering until the new service year 1975 , when they immediately changed tack and began investing in properties along the gulf coast.
once again, highly recommended veiwing.. https://youtu.be/9qh0jbvsdrc.
I think there is no problem Lett and his family have made investments. It is just wise.
Problem is the double standard. The rank and file are living, especially now with problems like the virus, bush fires and stock markets, in Armageddon mode.
I see in my own JW family 2 kind of styles:
- my father, making property investments, savings and commodities exchange, seeing the JW belief more like a good way of living;
- my family in law, living like every day is the last day before Armageddon, seeing the JW belief like a child, scared and depending on jw.org in everything they do.
So, who is wise?
That's the same for GB members. Lett and family are the wise guys, and yes, have a double standard.

we hear how the economy is much healthier now.
are you better off than you were before, or the same or worse?
?.
Here in The Netherlands, better then ever.

jw.org is on collision course with russia.
the may wt study edition is full of prophesy related to the time of the end and what we have read so much in isaiah and jeremia bookstudy publications.. they found their enemy again.
jw.org needs enemy's to exist.
i just had this flashback when commenting on another thread about how they used to announce reproof or dfing from the platform.
at least in our congregation, it was a dramatic event (this is what i can remember from back in the mid-late 60's or early 70's when i was a kid).. at the end of the service meeting, just before singing the final song, the brother would announce, "we have a letter that must be read.
the "congregation servant" (my grandfather or later my father) would then slowly walk from the back of the kh to the platform.
I remember being a child and feeling the change in atmosphere in the congregation when the PO walked after the congregational watchtower study to the platform for a special message.
Holding my breath, because I was sensitive. I still can feel it, and hate it so much!
Most of the local df's in our town were in the 70's related to apostate thinking.
What a sect, it is emotional abuse. For a child to observate it, being sensitive.
