I was reluctant to raise this, given that it is totally off topic,
but it affects everyone here and I was wondering what the situation
is really like on the ground around the planet compared to what the
media are and are not reporting.

I've marked the thread as off-topic and started a new thread so that
it's easy to kill file or skip over.

Here in Northern England in the UK, there's a lot of low-level concern
but not a massive amount of panic buying yet (apart from the various
hand gels). There is some concern that the UK government is not reacting
strongly enough or quickly enough yet and there's a real feeling that
things could escalate out of control over the coming weeks due to that.

How are things in your part of the planet ?

Anyone know if there are any open positions at the IceCube lab ? :-)

Thanks,

Simon.
