My girlfriend is extremely pissed at people not following the guidelines, because they are prolonging the social-distancing order preventing
Her from coming to visit me. To be honest, I am too, I long for her/2

Best thing I found is the daily update from bunkerjohn. Quick bullet points on whats new, graphs, in 5 min Im set. Then nothing rest of time

How DARE news be relevant to pressing issues. For shame on them!

This is the defining event of your adult life. Sorry you're bored with it
KiwiBlooD1
Kiwi?
Tristanisawesome
How is it boring? It's literally (hopefully) a once in a lifetime event that is reshaping society across the globe. Super interesting tbh
stupendiferous
I too wish I could live in a happy little bubble where the world's events have no impact on my life
Lewynsa
I’m with you on that, dear. I have actually stopped watching the news,skip post and let my husband watch it and update me if anything’s new.

thesuperrippednobody
Turn off the news, and cut back on social media. It’s pretty easy to avoid most of the chatter.
PrincessNausicaa
Limit you time watching the news or going on social media (including Imgur).
BravePixel
To be bored is a privilege. You could be ill, low on food, without a job, having housing issues, struggling with kids, being bored is good.
besoft
Just imagine what they are not reporting on...
UnqualifiedOpinionDispenser
Oh! Ok. Sorry for that. I'll make sure this world wide history changing event get under the rug so you can feel less bored. My bad!

The worst part about the quarantine isn’t that I’m stuck at home, but that my family is stuck at home. We don’t get along at all when 1/?
We have time apart and now that we’re stuck together at home it’s gotten even worse. 2/2

Take care of yourself, watch their behaviour, watch your own behaviour, try not to react with anger if you can manage. Home violence is up.
Crawmak
When everyone is inside quarantining, nobody is out doing anything worth reporting on!

News isn’t supposed to be entertaining.
manolyk23
Oh damn! I'm so sorry that something that's affecting the whole planet is boring you! I am so so sorry! Is there anything I can do??
pemfranz7
Cold. So very, very cold. Please continue.
auztin78
Right?. The amount of shitty response by the government is being held mostly responsible by the news showing how shitty things are.

Have you tried changing news site/channel?
semiAnonymousMe
I mean you could also watch our government's fucking abysmal response to it and show naked their greed. There covid is just the theme.
fredgiblet
So don't watch it.
It's everywhere. Light relief on the internet is hard to find. Even lifestyle articles are all C19 focussed.
Internet news tends to focus on the things that people are searching for. It's both a blessing and a curse, but it's the way it is.

OpalNeraNZ
Why even watch the news? Seriously covid is most of the so called “news”. Switch off, learn a skill, watch that movie you’ve always wanted.
TrynaHelp
I bet there's correlation between not watchin the news and meeting up with your friends. The news had death. Reinforces not going outside.
People who don't watch the news much or at all very likely don't trust the news on some level, and so don't take it seriously. Your1
correlation is probably pretty accurate.
Because I watch the news I kept up to date with the new govt rules, new laws, and the science and adjusted my behaviours early and well.
My point is this person is clearly struggling. News/safety info can be sourced. Doesn’t need to be forced.
ilikeyourfaceandstuff
I'm sick of seeing news and learning nothing new. But staying inside all the time probably doesn't help either.
MisspentYouth333
There’s a few websites you can look at to just see the stats, see how your state is going, see how the confirmed cases slope is going
MarkWatneysVicodinPotato
Any good ones with graphs besides worldometers.info?
youcantgiveAbabybooze
They have to just keep repeating for all the people with no attention span, if they don't hear about it constantly they'll forget
psych0bunneh
This is true. As soon as it's out of the news people will start to think it's over and start to break quarantine.
TallDarkndHandsy
Go watch some documentaries then
IwishKimPinewasmygirlfriend
I particularly recommend the documentary they did on the voyager space program. It's in prime IIRC
Yes. I try and check once a day for our countrys latest stats. Then tune it out but I miss browsing the news sites.
LurkerOfDarkness
Which country is yours?
itsppearsyoucanindeed
At this point, I wonder if it really even matters, or if all the media is more or less the same
Mine has lengthy news on tv in the morning, any press briefings that come up, and just the regular news rest of day. But they have 1/2
Ramped up popular entertainment, lots more popular movies and tv series. 2/2
Targe0
If you are already isolating at home then you can reduce how much you follow it. At that point you are already doing all you really can.
So following it becomes kind of redundant for the day to day.

To be fair... there are still a lot of people thinking this is just another cold, out this virus won’t affect them at all.
ArcaneKvothe
Yeah do many people in the UK still not taking this seriously.
*so* goddamnit I'm gonna kill myself.
DrMaggot
I mean my wife got it and spent a shitty week in bed. I subsequently got it with no symptoms at all. It's another cold for some.
lmaolmao
Just out of interest, how sure were you that it was Corona? Did you get tested?
SloppyUsedCondom
We have people with zero sides that tested positive and are donating plasma or something ?
Considering the symptoms in the current context, the hospital and the medic my wife consulted was fairly sure. No test because she wasnt
In dramatic condition and neither was I, but he was sure it was it.
