One unforeseen by-product of Covid which may indicate Life As We Know It is over for all time...every frigging corporation in Australia has outsourced it's alleged "customer service" departments to either India or the Philippines. While it's great that gives them jobs, India's call factories are now on skeleton staffs because of Covid so if you have 2 dramas I have had in the past fortnight..electricity and telephone going out, attempting to get very nice Indian bloke to understand my predicament has been torture. And a glimpse of how technology may not be the great leap forward..I've had to use a Mobile Phone so you dial a local number and immediately are switched to India..FIVE TIMES connecting with crackling and cut-outs and distorted sound AND HAVING TO TELL MY TALE OF WOE ALL OVER EACH TIME.
Barney	Cancer is over 100 different diseases - which are not, usually, contagious. My point was really highlighting the inability of the world's most powerful country to cope. And the unabated growth there. India, Brazil and South Africa - now fall into the same category.
JK2006	So few deaths compared with cancer - (10 million a year globally). I think media is making you worry more than you should Barney. You're aware of how many die every day. Don't panic. That way worse things can happen.
Barney	They seem to need more beer in the US, where new infections are running at 67k a day! 3.8 million infections in total, with numbers rising in 40 states - and 140k dead. 50k dead in New York and New Jersey alone. Even more worrying is the lack of leadership from the White House. And the disagreements and protests within the states themselves. Trump continues to publicly critics his top medical advisor - making the problem worse.
Green Man	Not forgetting recession - poverty kills. What will happen if there's more on the dole then they are working. Government and their advisors are pretty much hammering the final nail on the coffin.
