The population of Canada is 38 million. We've only just started Spring here, but temperatures still going below zero (as it normally does in these parts). We have 5,596 cases, and 61 deaths (so far). As a postal worker in myĀ 32nd yearĀ of service, my take would gladly be that any show of appreciation would be saved for the health workers. I couldn't tie their shoes. With folk in isolation, it's important for the sake of morale and hope that they continue to see the outside world functioning as normally as it can, and that's why things like garbage collection and postal delivery are important in that regard. It's a privilege to be able to bring folk their CD's, DVD's, video games, books, appliances, medicine, groceries, alcohol, clothes, etc, if it can help break up their day, help keep them occupied, and help them to stay isolated. The job is now a duty.Ā š Ā Far too early? Did I not read you said it was due to 5G? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes 7 minutes ago, macy37 said: Did I not read you said it was due to 5G? Yes. The thinking early days wasĀ that the symptoms of the side effects of 5GĀ mirror those of coronavirus, but I don't see how that would have brought us to this point.

I read one study, using a different coronavirus, which suggested it could remain viable on a surface for up to 9 days depending on conditions. They gave an average range of a few hours up to 5 or 6 days. I suppose it might depend on how much slavers he transferred to each envelope? Hope you've had your dinner. Virus no bad enough without them getting the clap as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way you can get a refund is to call them and itĀ is impossible to get through, I have given up after holding forĀ hours the past 2 days. I wasĀ Ā supposedĀ Ā to flyĀ today and need to claim the refund no later than 2 hrsĀ before I travel. They are being devious bassas. The money expert forum is rammed with complaints.Ā I have finally just submitted a normal complaint form under the ācontact usā section on the website. I have taken screenshots of my booking in the āmanage my bookingā sectionĀ where they clearly offer a refund, then the page where they say you need to contact theirĀ Ā customer service centre to get a refund.Ā I totally get they are overwhelmed and the refund may not be given for some time, that is fine, but if I dont send some sort of proof that i haveĀ been trying to contact them prior to the date my flight was due to go, they will say I am too late for a change of booking or refund.Ā All they had to do was put a section on the website to complete if you wanted a refund. But they are clearly hoping people get fed up. The music they play on their customer service line alone would drive you to drink.Ā I have submitted a complaint too Any time I call now the line is busy, I didn't get the chance to stay on hold.Ā Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exile Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Here is a summary of someĀ SAGE advice to UK Govt. It seems to be published today, but links to a series of earlier briefings. The bits I saw not very detailed but include the following . "Where public disorder occurs, it is usually triggered by perceptions about the Governmentās response, rather than thenature of the epidemic per se. For example, a perception that the Government response strategies are not effective in looking after the public may lead to an increase in tensions" "The public need to understand the purpose of the Governmentās policy, why the UK approach differs to other countries and how resources are being allocated." They seem keen to promote a sense of āwe are all in this togetherā Couldn't see anything specific to Scotland or advice on how to deal with communicating to "4 nations" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
