Letest news here is that off licenses are considered essential and exempt from the "lockdown" (I use quotes because I don't think the government have gone far enough)

It doesn't matter that Belarus have opened all borders when all neighboring countries have closed - the result is the same  - I"m sorry for my black houmor.
From today I limit my exit from the house to a minimum - in accordance with the government's instructions. I will not visit even my family. Shopping items I leave on stairs and quick back to home. The only thing you can do is stay at home I think.

Please remember wearing face MASK when go outside. especially when go to crowded place. It is a must!
Here in China the coronavirus is under control. Only a few cases are imported every day.

Our gov says mask should wear only infected people or health Service. Normal people should keep safe distance when talking or waiting in queues. Public transport for example bus must be free in min 50% so if there are 50 sit places then max entry is for 25 people.

So here in Western Australia, we just learned today that schools will close early on the third of April, so teachers have time to put all of our content online. This means that we'll get a three-week holiday instead of two, but there's still no word as to what's happening after that.
The current estimate is that the entirety of our second term (our first term is the one that's just wrapping up; our school year stars in February) will be online-only. My cohort and I are very nervous about this, as it is our final year of high school, and our marks are counted towards our university acceptance.

If it's outside, it's necessary to wear a mask, for yourself and for the safety of others.
However, in severe epidemic areas, the supply of masks is far from the demand, and only priority should be given to hospitals. At present, China's supply of masks can't meet the demand too.
If we stay at home and don't go out, we can save the use of masks. This is also a helpless way.

Last week when I went out, on the Melbourne streets, I noticed only Asian are wearing face masks.
Aussie gov also tell the public the same story(not to wear face mask unless you are infected)... same as other western countries.
BUT you never know who is infected!
At an early stage, there are a lot of infected people shows no or minor symptoms and they can still spread the virus.....Now when the gov says "healthy people should not wear face mask"... most of the people will think they are "healthy" even tho they've got minor symptom, more importantly, our human nature doesn't wanna people around us to think we are infected!(because it is bad to us) This will eventually be resulting a pandemic, and the situation was getting out of control soon. Today you already know what happened in Italy and Spain.
In fact, wearing a mask in the public is actually not for self-protection(while most people think it is )... It is for those who infected but haven't shown symptoms stop spreading in the public. In this way, to slow down the pandemic.
China has got the situation in control quickly, because Chinese gov lockdown cities and tell the public to wear face masks when going out for self protection and protect others. All the measures aim to slow down the spreading.
Now we can see they used reverse-psychology to get people wearing masks
Down here in Australia, there is not enough face masks, even for the hospitals and health workers. So if the gov tells the public to wear face masks....It will cause social panic and a big shortage of PPE such as face masks... and the situation will be much worse than the shortage of toilet paper and hand sanitiser.

@Neo
Everywhere in the world face mask are rare item not available for masses. I cann't buy them anywhere like others but I can make them for my needs myself.
The main problem of mask is that you can bring the virus on it and infect yourself and other person in home. In other hand you can be infected with tears in eyes. That is why so important to have protection with googles when you have contact with infected person. Question is who wear mask + googles on the street ?

| School closed since spring break, most people work from home since this week. Well you can't really do much when "work from home" with kids around. The best activity is fishing, find a place with nobody and spent a day relaxing. White bass run is near end and Spanish mackerel just started. But there will be more restriction on outdoor activities soon, hopefully fishing is still allowed. |

I only go out to the local shop (50 meters away), and wear a mask for that. I don't wear goggles. Masks go straight in the recycling when I get home.

Almost everyone in China does that when they go essential shopping. And it is mandatory.
To prevent getting contract, It is also important to keep hand clean and have a good hygiene habit. Plus to use masks correctly.
Overall, It will be relatively safe if everyone is wearing masks. (Preventing virus spread around)

We have 200 Police officers on the street to question people the reason to go out. Non-essential go out will be fined.

| We are all preparing for the opening of the season of children's attractions, carousels and the like. Although this is more crowded, for some reason they do not betray this value. It’s strange.. |
