Number of Cases, and What Life is Like at 53 Cases

We are up to 53 cases in the ACT, and 1,219 in New South Wales. It's going up steadily. I'm getting a cat. I'm also going to sleep over for a while at a ex-girlfriend's flat, who I think is at risk. I'm going to spend some time at her house. Her friend really shouldn't go to Sydney. Those buses are a germ cage in regular times. I've gone out to go to the RSPCA and to get money out for a cat. At some point I am going to have to limit going outside all together. One less case, is going to save this. They think the economy will return to normal after it's happened, eventually. I also heard that things won't be the same for quite a long time. I wonder if in seven days Sydney will have 2,000 cases. Everyone is ignoring what the government said. There are just as many cars on the road. They seem to bank up at the lights. Can we trust Australians - the same Australians that hoarded toilet paper - to self-isolate correctly. There are idiots out there saying that it's hype, I'm sure. "Oh, I'll go out because all this Corona Virus stuff is an exaggeration." I am staying the hell at home when I get it. I'm going to tell everyone, in the authorities. I'm going to tell the Corona Virus Hotline. I'll call Lifeline if it gets bad, and just talk and get reassurance off the counselor. This is a long term thing. Prime Minister Scott Morrison has allowed retail shops to remain open. That has to stop. In 7 days, the retail will be shut, I predict. I suppose that it will make the job search stunted and consistent over a long time. Yes, we have very long social security ques. I think that the grocery store is different too. My life hasn't changed much, but it is apparent that things have changed. The noise of the cars is different. There are more people at home here... I just hope everything works out... I have a lot of vulnerable friends and family... (They should start military recruitment to keep people working...)
