Turkey Coronavirus & updates

[bsruzm]

Those, who hold critical positions, better be well protected. Engineers, scientists, soldiers, intelligence officers, whoever they may be. State should provide their needs, disinfected or shelters whatever necessary.

I'm against a full lockdown. People should start practicing social distancing. We should think to protect people and economy at the same time. Corona virus may last for one to two years. You can't shutdown everything and sit at home. What they did till now in Turkey it's good. Prevent people who are 60 years > or 20 years < to go outside and at same time government should start mass testing (20k a day is good but not enough if you don't want to go into a lockdown)

Any of Erdogan advisers following us here ?

We should have a very close look at this development, a very close look. Any stupid move by them should result in a military response.

Greek authorities announced on Friday that 65 Turkish nationals aboard a cruise ship under quarantine off the country’s coast tested positive for COVID-19.

The cruise ship, Eleftherios Venizelos, bearing a Greek flag was sailing from Turkey to Spain when it stopped at the Greek port of Piraeus on March 22 when suspected virus cases were detected. It has been under quarantine at the port since then. Along with 160 Turkish nationals, the ship has 36 Greek crew members and 187 passengers from other countries.

Nikos Hardalias, Greece’s Deputy Minister for Civil Protection, announced that those who tested positive will be treated aboard the ship while those testing negative would be accommodated at a hotel in Athens where they would be subject to a 14-day quarantine. The ship’s operator had earlier announced that 119 people aboard had the virus.

Burak Özügergin, Turkish Ambassador in Athens, told Anadolu Agency (AA) on Friday that Greek health care crews often boarded the ship for medical checks on those aboard. He said more people were expected to be discharged from the ship for quarantine on land if they test negative. He said the embassy was in contact with Greek authorities and Turkish company which leased the ship and assured food and medical equipment supplies if the need arises both for those aboard and those taken to the land.

[Constantinople]

Ok let me say this , if government won't conduct mass testing (50k < ) Turkey will surpass Italy and Spain.

They don't test in Netherlands... It is decrasing in term of amount infected people. Who the fak did started about testing will help? Only thing what will help is social distance and lockdown. Turkey is one of the first country who did take actions. In Europe nobody did a thing untill people did get infected and killed by the virus.

Man don't take Europe as a good example. EU countries are dumb except Germany. You need to conduct mass testing because people with no symptoms are spreading the virus. You should be faster than the virus.

dont think germans are smart.. they mostly are like sheep doing what government say.. and most germans now obey the government ordered! that is the difference

and meditarran people are a little bit different:

a little bit more selfish
they do what they want
family has higher priority
family structure and visiting culture is different
in turkey we may have more young people than in germany wich can spread the virus that could be a problem

in central Turkey in Anatolia where we are from you may go outside 18 o'clock to 21 p'clock in a 20k city and you will see life, ppl on the streets going into parks, walking in the city, people drinking cay in the city and than gou out it where I am from in germany at 18:00 we have a special name for our little town.. deadburg the streets are empty its like in Steven Kings The Stand the world wiped out from swine flu.. but its ordinary time without any virus.. the people are at home.. and now with corona its even worse!

really there are not much people outside.. the only time when you will see some ppl out is when we have really good weather.. and than you may see also young people
