Canada closed to Americans for another 30 days (effective until June 21, 2020).
We cannot cum to Canada for at least another month, probably longer. Meanwhile, Americans will have to travel to Europe and South America for some sexual healing, assuming Germany, Spain, etc. allow international travelers into their nations.
"Provinces are cautiously beginning to allow businesses and services to reopen from their pandemic lockdowns, but the Canada-U.S. border will remain closed for at least another 30 days.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced the agreement to extend the closure during his daily news conference today [19/5/20].
Both countries reached an agreement in March to temporarily close the border to non-essential travel — meaning no recreational visits — while keeping it open to commercial traffic and essential workers who cross for work.
That agreement was extended in April by 30 days and it was set to expire on May 21."
. . . .
"Canada's Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Theresa Tam says a mandatory 14-day quarantine for any international arrivals remains a "cornerstone" of federal pandemic policy going forward, in response to a question about the public health argument for keeping the Canada-U.S. border closed to non-essential travel."
. . . .
"Moshe Lander, an economist at Concordia University, said the border likely will remain closed for several months.
Because economic recovery will require virus testing with rapid and accurate responses and minimal quarantine requirements, he said, governments will prioritize tests for their own citizens first and foreigners second.
"If millions of people cross the border, those millions of tests should be used to ensure the domestic situation is secure first. That type of volume is still months away and, therefore, so is the border opening," he said."

Trump said. "I don't respond to her. I think she's a waste of time."
A few minutes later, he said, "Pelosi is a sick woman. She's got a lot of problems — a lot of mental problems."
In these times of coronavirus, there is much talk of age group vs death.

How old do you think the guys who meet the escorts are?
I have already discussed this with a few escorts, and they told me that the majority of their clients were 50 years and over.

Dude, you're the funniest guy on this board and it's not even close. I burst out laughing in an empty room by myself like a loser
TNB is promoting a British style of humor which often goes over my head. I remember the TV show Monty Python was very popular with American audience as was Benny Hill back in the 1970s. I never personally found either of those acts to be funny because they were what I would call British humor specialists and their intended audiences were British. Now don't get me wrong I like British drama a lot, I loved Luther for example and also loved Caliber on Netflix which is an extremely well done British production. The British seem to do very well with their theater and cinema and of course their music is prime time (they gave us the Beatles and Rolling Stones, The Who, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd after all), but on humor I will take Eddie Murphy over Benny Hill and Abbott and Costello over Monty Python.

I read that on tvanouvelles.ca
President Donald Trump discussed the possibility of hosting the G7 summit in June at Camp David on Wednesday, not by videoconference as decided because of the coronavirus.
With Trump you never know.
Are there eels under the rock?

Not sure if you guys do this, but I have been wiping down my groceries with Clorox wipes since the beginning of this pandemic and I’m glad that I may not need to do it going forward:
apple.news
CDC now says coronavirus 'does not spread easily' via contaminated surfaces — Fox News
For those of you still wiping down groceries and other packages amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, breathe a sigh of relief: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) now say that the novel virus "does not spread easily" from touching contaminated surfaces or objects.
apple.news
I have been wiping down my groceries with Clorox wipes as well. The problem is you don't know if a dude carrying the virus picked up that item immediately before you and right after picking his nose. If so and you pick up the item wipe it down or yikes.
On another note I had a scary bike ride yesterday on the beach road near where I live. There was a dude walking in the road ahead of me. His back was to me, and I didn't see that he was smoking a cigarette. As I went to pass him he suddenly exhaled a huge burst of smoke which I directly inhaled. If he is a carrier I am likely fucked/infected. It wasn't intentional on his part it was just the timing of my pass coupled with him exhaling to his left. So I caught that gust of smoke right in my face and nose and lungs.

EB msn listed a bunch of American cities where COVID is on the rise and new haven was listed. From what I remember the few times I visited Yale the surrounding area was quite dodgy
If by Yale you mean the University, it is located in downtown New Haven and is the heart (along with the Hospital and its health network) that drives the economy of the entire city and in fact the entire New Haven County area. New Haven is also known for its pizza, which is in its own genre ("New Haven style pizza") and the best in the United States and maybe the world.
As to whether the Yale "surrounding area" is dodgy, you are talking about a large swath of real estate that is many many square miles as the campus is spread out throughout the downtown. The northern and western sides of the campus does have some adjacent neighborhoods that are "dodgy"; south and east of campus is an area mostly commercial and lined with restaurants, bars, and quite a few medical offices.
The hardest hit area of Connecticut is Fairfield County, which is the southwest part of the state closest to NYC. However, I read today that net hospitalizations for Covid in Connecticut have declined for 28 straight days, although there was a spike in deaths yesterday. The State reopened today, although from my own personal observations, many companies are advising their employees to continue to work from home.

WHO reports largest single-day increase in coronavirus cases
The global coronavirus pandemic has brought countries to a standstill. Here's the latest updates on worldwide Covid-19 cases, deaths, government responses, and more.
This can't be good.
WASHINGTON | Monkeys vaccinated or infected with the new coronavirus have developed antibodies that allow them to be protected against a new infection, according to two "promising" studies despite the big differences between macaques and humans, published Wednesday by the journal Science

actually smoking reduces the risk
Does nicotine protect us against coronavirus?
A study from France concluded smoking might protect against coronavirus. But particularly now, in the midst of a pandemic, it’s critical we don’t take headlines at face value.
theconversation.com
The cigarette smoke was mixed with his breath- the smoke did not come from the lit cigarette, it was a huge exhale, meaning a carbon dioxide, breath and smoke mixture. I caught it in my face as I put on a burst of speed and passed him with my bike.
A columnist in the NY Post (strongly) suggests that we end the lockdown now. I don't completely agree with him, but I do think states and cities need to move further and faster towards reopening the economy and returning to normal life. I think the same goes for Montreal and the rest of Canada.
End New York City’s lockdown now!

Sometimes, a good rant is all a writer can offer. Bear with me.
Last Friday morning, some 3,500 New Yorkers lined up at a Catholic church in Queens to receive free food hours before it even opened, according to the New York Police Department. Catholic Charities has reported a 200 percent increase in demand over the past month and a half.
By prolonging the coronavirus shutdown long after its core mission was accomplished, Gov. Cuomo and Mayor de Blasio have plunged tens of thousands of New Yorkers into poverty.
It needs to end. Now.
In mid-March, we were told we have to endure a lockdown to ensure that hospitals didn’t get overrun. We did. The hospitals were not overwhelmed. We turned the Javits Center into a hospital. We didn’t need it. We brought in a giant Navy ship to treat New Yorkers. We didn’t need it.
We were told we were moments away from running out of ventilators. We weren’t, and now the United States has built so many, we are giving them away to other countries.
Meanwhile, the Big Apple is dying. Its streets are empty. The bars and jazz clubs, restaurants and coffeehouses sit barren. Beloved haunts, storied rooms, perfect-slice joints are shuttered, many for good. The sweat equity of countless small-business owners is evaporating. Instead of getting people back to work providing for their families, our mayor talks about a fantasyland New Deal for the post-coronavirus era.
Open the city. All of it. Right now. Broadway shows, beaches, Yankees games, the schools, the top of the freakin’ Empire State building. Everything. New Yorkers have already learned to socially distance. Businesses can adjust. The elderly and infirm can continue to be isolated...
