Apparently due to Quarantine , people are getting jobless ,but then again pause for a minute. Some well established institutions are able to provide the financial support and they are shifting the jobs online . One should understand that, this is something that only some well off members of the society are enjoying. Unfortunately the people with small jobs are now deemed insignificant and they are sitting at home and hoping for it to end soon .. This is making the economic gap between the two sections only wider . Quarantine was not done properly , it is not the solution. People will soon starve and won't be able to pay of bills . With the loans from colleges and schools , kids will be deprived of a good future. Soon enough if the Quarantine does not end , Corona virus won't kill us , but the economic situation will . Therefore I urge all of you to stay home and practice good hygiene. So that we are able to control the breaking economic crisis which is bigger than the Corona virus. What are your thoughts ? Please feel free to share.

What more for those who are jobless and homeless? They are more struggling than anyone else. And I think in this situation, the government needs to step up and do its job. This COVID really shows the difference between the upper and lower classes. Rich people can easily say that we should stay at home but for those who are less fortunate, they can't stay at home because they need to think about tomorrow.
However, quarantine may not be the solution but it's the best we can do right now while there is still no solution yet. Yes, everyone is struggling but if we just cooperate and follow the protocols given by the authorities, we can prevent getting affected. This virus has affected a lot of people, and even the economy. What I think is that the government's way of handling the pandemic is really important. We can look at other countries, they can handle the virus very well while others are struggling. Sadly, our country is not that good at handling the cases. And now, we also have another problem we are facing. We are being affected by a typhoon and it's harder for those poor people. Let's just hope that this pandemic will end already and that we can rise again.

Some corrupt countries used this medium to enrich their pockets, I mean the officials. Some of the public palliatives meant for less privileged were diverted to individual pockets, girl friends, close friends and family members. It is better that the quarantine is let off so that individuals can feed themselves and not wait for the government for help because help isn't coming in certain country's government.

What do you mean the Corona virus won't kill us? millions have died already. But government has to weight the risk here, will they allowed to ease quarantine in the next coming days but expect more cases of covid-19 virus increase? And if you are the one who have been affected financially, will you take the risk as well? It's really hard situation for everyone, specially bringing food in the table for our families, but if will be very difficult to sustain your family if you yourself go out and get infected.

At present its not only the virus that we are fighting for, millions of people are also fighting for their jobs and how will they feed their families in the next few months if the crisis gone uncontrolled. It is really a big challenge for governments to meet the needs of its people, the cash aids and foods are not enough to supply all families.
But as an individual we should also do our part if we want this crisis to be controlled or stop, let us obey the current rules and protocols to stop the spread of this deadly disease.

This is a very emergency situation and it is difficult to find the best way out. About quarantine and lockdown that requires everyone at home will actually harm and misery on the other hand. People cannot work and the income of everyone who works offline is decreasing drastically, economic turnover is chaotic.
The government must be very careful in making decisions. When the government allows people to do activities and work normally, some groups of people do not follow the rules to maintain cleanliness properly.
The crisis will end soon if this virus can be spread and more people are recovering. We as good citizens must also be preventive in maintaining good hygiene and following government regulations.

This scenario that we're facing now makes me heartbroken and sad 'cause I'm thinking those who aren't capable of eating 3 times a day and those who don't have shelters especially now because there's a typhoon.
This virus really exposes the broken system of each nation especially here in the Philippines, there are not enough funds to sustain the health care system and needed to rely on some countries for PPEs and mask.
Some people said that the coronavirus is the antidote for the pollution, overpopulation, and many more but for me, it's kinda unfair for those innocents who were affected by this virus.

This virus is a double edged sword but we have to survive and choose what's best for us. Those who can remain at home and still have ample of supply of foods then you should remain at home and this applies for the majority. And those who are allowed to go outside and go back to their jobs, observe social distancing, always wear face mask and be observant around you. Avoid those crowded places because that's where the virus is spreading quickly.

Dude, we're getting that advice and more every single minute on the news, and people are generally doing a pretty good job of keeping distance from one another, washing their hands, etc.--at least from what I've observed in my country. I'm sure there are wide variations on how serious people are taking all of this depending on what country you're in. This quarantine/outbreak/economic crisis isn't going to last forever, and I don't think it's going to last as long as many people seem to think it's going to. There's going to be some economic damage done, but I'm oddly optimistic that most people are going to get back to work once they're not locked down anymore. It's going to be tough times until that happens, but I don't think it's going to be that much longer.

I was considering maybe there is a chance that the whole world could turn a bit more online thanks to this situation? I have been saying a lot in the past 10 years that many jobs could be done at home and the productivity would even increase because you are not forcing people to work for 8 hours yet the road coming to work takes about 1 hours and going back home takes 1 more hour and there is 1 more hour for lunch and so forth, which means there is 10 hours on 7 hours of real work, you do not really do anything when you wake up until you go to work neither, so you go to work at 7 and go there at 8 but you wake up at 6 so you are spending another 1 hour there as well. All of this is useless.
Thanks to corona basically you are starting work, work for 4 hours, give a break, work another 4 hours and you are done, all other hours belong to you.

The word (quarantine) got me alittle confused. I guess I mistook it for isolation hence the confusion: Well, it doesn't make sense to Quarantine/lockdown the whole population when we could safely go outside to work by practicing the recommended social distancing plus other safety measures. Hopefully people don't turn this to a shameful class thing instead of working together to solve the problems. No one can survive alone in serious crisis unless GOD is on his/her side. There should be other things to do in the crisis and safely earn a living.

Some are lucky being in a Work from home situation, and others can't really do something to go back to work specially if they have no boss or company to rely on(small time jobs and self employed). I have watched news about construction workers begging in the streets, it has come to that point. I hope those workers are receiving help from the government, those people are the one who really needed the help of the authorities. Aside from helping them, I hope they can be employed in any work that they can help during this pandemic too. For example, tricycle drivers who can't go back to work are employed as food delivery workers in a certain city in my country. Some tricycle drivers are employed packing relief goods. Any help that can make them less suffer will do. I just hope everyone who is suffering in this pandemic will receive the help they deserve. Hoping that it will end soon.

Postponed bills which come unpaid from the time lockdown been ordered, inconsiderate collector who rushes everything irregardless of someone's condition, and such is going to be very tough for underpaid employees who are totally relying with government's assisstance, and families who haven't got any savings to cover it up. But that's another reason what is working for, and as that happens time would take care of everything, either way. Being optimistic somewhat help for not being of any burden in addition with the problem who are yet to come. My apologies for too much drama. Am just hoping for the best. It won't last any longer, I agree.

I'm thinking of the same thought, we could be return to normal if we want to just wear a protective gears when going outside and the problem is solved but the thing is the number of covid-19 cases is still increasing, that is the only data that the government could rely on from now since WHO has not been instructing yet but to stay home. Once we get to handle the things easily, if we come to see a significant decrease in the cases then we might be back again to the normal, I mean the new normal. We can't deny that there are hardheaded people that keeps the number even higher ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

The virus does not attack the economy but the virus attacks humans and government efforts to prevent the spread of infection have made the economy devastated because people have to stay at home, lose their jobs, reduce their income, and so on. Staying at home is a protocol issued by the government to control infections and the government must also pay attention to the effect of this protocol on its citizens.
For developed countries, maybe government assistance will make citizens able to meet their daily needs and the same is done by developing countries and poor countries. But for developing countries and poor countries, the government must increase foreign debt to help the needs of people affected by the virus. Changes in the economic status of society have occurred during the pandemic, and it is very important that we must help each other to revive the economy by maintaining a healthy lifestyle and complying with applicable regulations and this is an important effort that must be done as a society to help the government repair the damaged economy.

I have watched news about construction workers begging in the streets, it has come to that point. I hope those workers are receiving help from the government, those people are the one who really needed the help of the authorities. I notice from companies that implemented work from home policies is that they are related to technology somehow, this not includes heavy machineries. Very unfortunate for those people who relies on their job that is crowd dependent like working in stores as a cashier for non essential needs like in malls. Here in our country, there is a possibility that construction projects will be resume soon as our government pushes the economy not to decline so hard. Aside from helping them, I hope they can be employed in any work that they can help during this pandemic too. For example, tricycle drivers who can't go back to work are employed as food delivery workers in a certain city in my country. Some tricycle drivers are employed packing relief goods. Any help that can make them less suffer will do. I just hope everyone who is suffering in this pandemic will receive the help they deserve. Hoping that it will end soon.
Actually we can't do nothing for them but to support by any means, it seems like government assistance is enough for now to survive their daily needs.

Sooner or later, countries would have to lift the quarantine in their places since the woes of their economy could no longer sustain the burdens of no profits in any direction. Some developing countries are already planning to lift the quarantine or at least ease it in the coming weeks. However, there should always be a consequence to such premature decisions. Expect a second wave of the virus plaguing most countries which lifted the lockdown (like South Korea) until the virus/disease is fully understood and what medication could be taken in order to combat it to prevent from developing further.

Quarantine was not done properly , it is not the solution. People will soon starve and won't be able to pay of bills . With the loans from colleges and schools , kids will be deprived of a good future. Soon enough if the Quarantine does not end , Corona virus won't kill us , but the economic situation will .
So what do you propose instead? How would you do quarantine (and what is your qualification to decide it - are you a Ph.D. epidemiologist?)? And you seem to contradict yourself here: Therefore I urge all of you to stay home and practice good hygiene.
Also, no one will be starving to death, so stop creating panic. Western countries survived WWII and WWI as well as many economic crises like the Great Depression and there wasn't any mass starvation. It only happened in communist countries because of their stupid ideology that can't provide people even with basic things.

Quarantine is the only reason why some of us survive this long though. You don't need the job to survive but the necessities like food, this I guess should the government first has to provide while we still are battling with how to control the virus and minimize the numbers of affected. The problem is that the government can't provide all these to everyone that is why people have to come out.
That they should focus right now is to find the vaccine. Spend millions for it.
