Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Re: OAPs
Stay safe man.
I've called up all the old folks and immuno compromised people I care about and have offered to help them out going to get groceries for them, doing yard work for them, whatever.

Re: OAPs
It is easy to forget when you have others like your family to think about mate. It will not be easy but it is in their interest too that you keep well. Time to dig out the old LP's before the Mrs reminds you of all the DIY jobs that need doing around the house.
You can still go for a walk if you keep a safe distance from people. I went and walked one of the beachs here on Monday for my head as much as my heart and lungs.
Keep safe and well.

Re: OAPs
You should be careful, Dia with your conditions. Really anyone with existing lung issues, undergoing chemo, etc which is a lot of people need to be extra careful. Elderly men suffer the most and it is likely smoking connected. Also, even in China only 14% of the elderly died. They would possibly have died had it been something else too like pneumonia. Old people die and that's life or perhaps death. Few will ever die peacefully in their bed. The issue for people with chemo is that they need to venture out and get to those hospitals, but many ordinary older people can really stay home without too much bother. Even going to a hospital is not that much of a risk. If your town has say 8 cases, then you unlikely to catch anything. It's a numbers game and the odds are heavily in your favor, so one should not freak out too much. In that sense the 63% of Americans who think the media is milking it are somewhat correct. One should be cautious, but one should not overreact. I think it makes people aware of what is coming which is death and many do not want to consider that possibility. That's why I don't freak out so much.
Italy probably scares people but the truth is they sacrificing old people as their system simply cannot cope. It is the government choosing to kill them at this stage.

There you go! There is always an upside. Stay positive Dia. Do the things you like to do and think of it as a breather. The Plague by Albert Camus is a good one for these times. And The Strange Death of Europe by the impeccably charming and well dressed Douglas Murray.

Re: OAPs
If you are self isolating you should not be going out anyway. Stay inside and watch netflix.
