Overview
In the midst of such chaos it has become clear that Waste Division needs to activate its news function. Thankfully, Waste correspondent Phillip Griffin is on the case. He got his uncle Jeff Griffin on the phone to discuss his circumstances in Rome, Italy a hotspot of the COVID-19 virus. Thanks to Jeff for taking time to talk to us!
We MUST MAKE CLEAR: we are not like other news providers. We provide scrappy, raw journalism that you need to critically think about. We do not claim to be experts. We are interested in reporting on-the-ground experiences of normal people--make of it what you will. Do your own research and analysis to decide what is best for you. Google is useful sometimes, tho evil for sure.
BUT HERE ARE OUR PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR COVID-19 BASED ON THE BEST INFO WE HAVE:
-STAY IN YOUR HOUSE AS BEST YOU CAN
-MINIMIZE INTERACTION WITH ANYONE EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT SHOWING SYMPTOMS
-IN THE U.S. MANY RESTAURANTS ARE STILL DELIVERING FOOD, BUT WE RECOMMEND YOU BUY GROCERIES & COOK AT HOME WITH YOUR OWN SANITATION PROCEDURES IN PLACE.
-WORRY LESS ABOUT YOUR JOB AND MORE ABOUT YOUR PEOPLE. RENT & MORTGAGE WILL LIKELY BE SUSPENDED FOR SOME PERIOD.
