It’s on every continent except Antarctica.

That being said, no. It’s not a concern anywhere. What’s a concern is heart disease, breast cancer, endless war, and how many cameras the new iPhone has.

And I’ve had my coffee!! ;)

@PwC1 at least in America, only like 0.1% of people who get the flu actually die of the flu versus (globally) the 2-3% of people infected with coronavirus that end up dying.

Last I checked we had around the same number of reported cases as USA but more had recovered from it.
We are an island and have good healthcare system but as someone above said, closer to Asia and it really only takes one person in say a hospital or food industry

Actually everything I look at now says we’ve got ~ 24 cases versus USA’s 60. Not sure what I looked at this morning, might have just gotten mixed up.

That’s pretty close to Asia so I’m sure there is

Is anyone on a low dose of Adderall or a similar stimulant, and do you find it helpful/effective?

When I was diagnosed (at 20 yo) I started on Adderall XR and my psychiatrist essentially took a “keep upping the dose until you feel side effects” approach, even though I still saw some benefits at a lower dose. I’m currently unmedicated and am somewhat hesitant to restart, but feel I could see some benefit and better stability with the help of medication.

So...seems like shut downs are headed our ways. Why are schools requiring us to come in? I worked for multiple teachers last shut down, and honestly went above and beyond any other para in our building. I have three kids ages 8-11. This will put me under a tremendous hardship if I have to go to work everyday and find a sitter. Not to mention- when I brought this to my principals attention he said I might have to take Covid leave. Covid leave only lasts so long- correct? The. What do I do?

I’m having my performance review tomorrow. Looked at my goals last year which was set before the pandemic really hit. Since it really affected business and travel I didn’t hit most of my goals. Plus I was really depressed (who wasn’t really) so I didn’t take much initiative. What’s a good way to navigate this...?
