RE: Corona Virus - how can we help?
I've been in quarantine for going on two weeks.
Doc says it's just the aftermath of a bad flu that never fully went away, I hope she's right as they have no capacity to see people let alone properly treat them any longer.
The only people still allowed to see a GP are suspected cases of the wuflu, and even then all the GP does is perform triage to determine whether they should send you home or send you to a second triage station that determines whether you're sick enough to need hospital care.
Only if you're admitted to hospital are you actually tested for it, as there's simply not enough capacity at the testing labs, they're running out of not just test kits but everything else from petri dishes to test tubes to disinfectant.
Luckily I was prepared for this and have stockpiled several weeks of food over the last few months, as grocery deliveries have become nearly non-existent. Most stores have stopped deliveries, and those that still do them you have to order weeks in advance and then hope you'll actually get what you ordered or anything at all.
