The news reports corona tests. Are these specific to c19, or others also. It seems everyone who sneezes is suddenly suspect.

Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread
by Simon inthis 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.

The fear is people realizing they dont need this. The same for sports trying to keep the fans interest in watching some overpaid bozo do what you should be engaging in yourself. Same for the new car you dont really need. The list is endless

If You're Just Here to spread Your TDS, It's Time to Say Goodbye
by Simon inif all you want to do it deliver a constant whine of "orange man bad" then find someplace else to do.
it.
frankly, i can't be bothered with the bullshit anymore.. honestly, your politics and the whole virtue signalling woke brigade has actually started causing real deaths and was ruining life for many before that.. if you can't control your disease, then i'll do it for you.. it's not open for debate..

Trump is a coarse man. He had a oversized and ego. But he seems less owned than any recent president.
In the present crisis what would we expect from any one else
Either roosevelt, truman, Eisenhower, pick your favorite then try to figure what they would do. I am at risk, but my children are in danger of not paying rent or mortgages and losing a home; that is also a subtle health threat.

Legal Concerns About "Zoom" Meetings!
by Atlantis inthis whole "zoom" thing has got me wondering whether some of it is legal or not.
if a person has to dress up for a zoom meeting the way the watchtower dictates, doesn't this really go "beyond" cult?.
even the cults who committed mass suicide were able to dress the way they wanted for their meetings.

The camera is not on 24 7. Churches are also broadcasting services. The zoom seems to be limited to 100 hookups. Whole family on one camera.
I lost respect for one elder making what I thought were too critical comments, on the air. They have always overstressed dress and grooming for meetings. The other side is sloppily dressed people at churches in general.
Without the cameras I can do housework, clean guns, do anything to keep awake.
I did hear of one person who couldnt get zoom to work promptly called out for missing meeting though

by InterestedOne ini was wondering about that half-table/half-podium thing that jw's use on the platform.

That mind wandering! I used to envision how a model railroad would fit if you had a building that big. When small I watched a fly in a city auditorium ( remember when they rented for soecial talks) go from the audience to circle the speaker then back. Oh to have eyes half that good now. I cant remember the talk, but I am sure it was boring old light

I'm trying to get the camera upside down one thing, we find who chews gum, picks their nose, falls asleep. I do worry that everyone will see the look we give when sister know-it-all comments. Actually the camera burns bandwidth

No weddings, funerals around here. Not even letting one family member in a hospital to hold hands with a dieing man. This really wears on nurses, there was a fb posting I saw with tears

This Sucks: Every Day this pandamic goes on, PIMI wife is slipping further and further into the WT abyss
by goingthruthemotions inthere will be no hope that she will ever come out of the wt abyss.
