It's good to stay informed, to isolate yourself as much as possible and to do what you can, but being bombarded by all sorts of different notifications where many probably say the same thing just drives you crazy. Now that the US President has finally accepted the fact that this is a real crisis and threat and not a fake news campaign instigated by the democrats he and the rest of the administration who supported him finally have done their typical 180 and now are actually doing something. It would have been good if this had happened 3 weeks ago, but let's hope that in 4 to 6 weeks the worst of this is over and we are on the downslope of it. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of l.d.ethie...@gmail.com Sent: Wednesday, March 18, 2020 5:46 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Corona Virus Alerts: How to get news updates on your phone right now, cNet Hello, I'm in Canada and dont't have it in my notifications settings?
