Day 4 of strike. The infected cruise ship 'World Dream' now has 20 confirmed nCoV cases.

Aside from a city-wide shortage of face masks, sanitisers, and personal protective equipment like face shields and gowns, some kind of internet hoax has gone out saying mainland china factories have stopped producing toilet paper so there's hysterical scrambling and hoarding of toilet paper. Toilet paper!!

There's a video online of a man showing people how to wipe your butt after pooping, using a single square of toilet paper. Don't look it up. It's hella gross.

Due to the shortage of medical equipment as mentioned in the previous paragraph, a lot of private clinics are temporarily shut. At the same time, the department of health has urged citizens to seek help in private clinics if for minor conditions due to staff strike.

On a similar front, colleagues from another hospital are told to wash their face shields in-between patients instead of, you know, following protocol and getting a new one. Because we don't have enough. We have

I can't wait for all this to be over. The outbreak, the strike, the mainland influxes of disease, the absolutely useless government.
