It's about so much more than a pandemic, it's become a fully blown class war where every celebrity who was isolated anyways gets tested, and everyone else is told to ride it out. What about Jeff Bezos and Whole Foods - suggesting that his employees pool their unused sick days for the benefit of employees that are sick?

Or the uplifting story about the Italian who 3D printed respirator valves - only to be shut down by threats of a lawsuit: https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20200317/04381644114/volunteers-3d-print-unobtainable-11000-valve-1-to-keep-covid-19-patients-alive-original-manufacturer-threatens-to-sue.shtml. There should be no threat of lawsuit here, unless it's against the country for withholding aid in time of National Crisis. But companies have more rights than people.
There is absolutely no good news in the world at the moment. And, cap that with Bernie's out of the race, Trump has won the GOP nomination, we're now living next to the biggest trailer park (soon to be necropolis) in the world.
Trump. Norwegian Cartoon.

Generally I'm pretty opposed to the guy, but he made the right move here. Way ahead of the rest of the country.

Quite enjoyed this, the aesthetic, look, feel, animation, but on that note Wes Anderson commits the sin of having the "American Savior". By this point it should be obvious that they can't even save themselves. So - all in all, a very good film diminished by the gratuitous presence of an American.
