The Mysterious Coronavirus Spreading Worldwide


Recommended Posts

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
 
This site has a running tally of statistics related to the coronavirus, worldwide and a country by country breakdown. There are other running tallies such as public healthcare  expenditure and public military expenditure.
There are quite a number of excellent charts on this site.
Just a reminder that not all are updated as soon as we would like. Some charts are still based on February figures. It's now nearly April.

These are the orders here in PR.

It's curious, the day it came in effect, we received a text message from our Service Group Overseer telling us that Sunday meeting had been cancelled. We didn't knew why.

 

1 hour later, the government announced the lockdown.

 

It was supposed to end on Monday, but the government is planning to extend it two more weeks, as cases now are going up. At the start of the lockdown, we were in 5 cases only.

 

Today, there are 64. And 2 deaths. 

 

And this was changed today by the government...

 

The lockdown has been oficially extended until April 12.

The curfew times will change next Tuesday, instead of 9pm-5am, it will be 7pm-5am.

 

Supermarkets will be closed on Sundays. People were going to the supermarkets besides buying food because it was the only thing open.

 

And the last new thing, vehicles with a license plate that ends on even numbers can only be on the road on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Vehicles with license plates that ends on odd numbers can only be on the road on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Exceptions are if you are in a emergency. Sundays, well, nothing is open, so, where can you go?

 

And cases tonight keep going up. 70 cases.

 

Special Talk, Memorial, preaching, everything will be via Zoom. At least we will get peace inside our homes, far from this crazy world.

My wife was blown away today when I shared a news pop-up

that the US had now surpassed all other countries with virus cases

 

she was in shock - even china and Italy..... yes

saw separte article claiming 81K. -  83k —- and using the source just mentioned a few posts earlier — it show 85,000

 

how quickly things change - we got some instruction to obtain 6-8 weeks of supplies

canned foods - medicine , etc......and each FSGO shared this with his group...

today we see the impact....

 

we had a zoom FSGO meeting tonight - for Congregation Bible study

and then as a family study project we pulled out and re-organized our TO-GO bags

 

the friends in Bahamas had to use theirs this past hurricane season - and they had nothing to go back to on ABACO Island

 

The Bahamas and the China lock down for months .... made me rethink which items to take in my TOGO bag

 

be safe friends

It's completely accurate. Spanish Influenza pandemic was 1918-1919.

 

Maybe they kept running the public notice in the paper each week after the proclamation. . Maybe it took 3 weeks just to get it in the paper?

Phillipians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are of serious concern, whatever things are righteous, whatever things are chaste, whatever things are lovable, whatever things are well-spoken-of, whatever things are virtuous, and whatever things are praiseworthy, continue considering these things.

Darrin,  can you be more specific about what changed with regard to what to put in TOGO bag?

Of course, we students of Jehovah's Word know of THE Coronavirus cure FOR SURE!  

:D 

I personally cringe when I see pictures like this. It isn't the loving Jesus at all that will cure mankind, which would be far more suitable than this picture. Why are Jehovah's Witnesses always so nasty about the end of this system of things?

Do you mean the people here or the organization in general?
