It entirely depends on the outbreak severity and countries' hospital capacities. Italy's ICUs are overbuburdened, but their ICUs collapsed in the severe 2017-2018 flu outbreak; their ICUs are 85-90% full every winter; so they normally have a capacity problem if the situation deviates from normal. Germany is not having a problem, for one thing because they have good capacity.
Germany is doing a lot better than Italy, Spain and the Netherlands. They have a lot of ICU beds. They have serious restrictions too because they learned from other countries what can happen if you don’t.

This Corona is not a flew.
A lot of people get very sick for a long time. MDH nows 2 people from work, who are in a choir. 14 out of 20 people got very sick at one rehearsal evening, because they inhaled the virus.

Coughing hurts much more as in a flew. Trouble with breathing makes people frightened. After two weeks they are still coughing a lot. But they are both glad the worst seems to be over now. I don't know about the other sick choir members. One co-worker can’t taste anything anymore. This is one of the side effects.
 
I feel as though I have a lot to be thankful for. I’m an avid gardener and have been for years. I have always got my seeds early out of excitement to plant in the Spring. I have my chickens and am well stocked with food. I’m fortunate to have a property large enough to sit outside and get fresh air.

Same here. I ordered my seeds back in January (because even in normal circumstances they run out of stock if I don't!) and rolling in eggs again. Even if I had to completely quarantine, our driveway is so long that I can easily walk the dogs without ever seeing another person.

Just remove it to a secure location and let it accumulate until you're ready to do a load of wash. Or iron the paper money. It can take it the heat but the virus can't. Dump the change in to a jar of hot soapy water and agitate it for 30 seconds or so. Rinse it in HOT water.

If you're concerned about money coming from unknot sources and potentially transferring virus, heat and soap will eliminate that possibility.

Wouldn't it be easier and just as effective to put the cash (both bills and coins) aside and let them sit for a week? I haven't seen any sources so far that say it can stay intact past 72 hrs or so.

Or... grab your heat lamp and just bake it all under the lamp? Darn things have to be useful for something.
