The current guinea pig looks to be China, as they've opened up both Hubei and Wuhan. I do wonder to what extent they're allowing people out of the region, and what sort of precautions they're taking. It seems improbable to me that just because they've reduced the number of cases substantially it won't take off again once movement restrictions are reduced and the economy is restarted. I hope they're taking good notes.

All the best, Jordy. As for Johnson, I'm hoping for the best for him as well. If it's a "road to Damascus" moment for him, all the better.

Apparently at least some proportion of the paper products used to make the masks/gowns etc., is produced here in Canada: The mill is currently working at full capacity to produce a recent double order from the US. Hopefully someone in the government will be able to recognize a bargaining chip when they see one.

I forgot National Lampoon. Very hit and miss, but when it was good it was very good.

Bloodline Great cast, but they've taken a 3 or 4 hour story and stretched it out to 13 hours. Ridiculous. (And only made more ridiculous by showing the ending at the start.) I quit after 5 hours. Figured it was almost over, checked to see how many more episodes and decided there was no way I was going to make it through another 8 hours of that, CV lockdown or no CV lockdown. Switched to "Kingdom" which I loved. Excellent in every respect, story, acting, sets, costumes, etc. Particularly enjoyed the two female leads.

Del Amitri: Kiss This Thing Goodbye

Paul Henderson celebrates scoring the winning goal in the 1972 Summit Series between Canada and the USSR. We thought we'd kick their asses, repeatedly and comprehensively. However it took a last minute goal in the final game of the series to decide it.
