    re: Germany - I wanted to make some pseudo-joke weeks back in the 'Predictions???' thread about people either with or without C-19 wearing yellow arm bands to signify their new found status in society. I couldn't formulate it well, so didn't bother.

    Wish I had now, especially given it's Germany that's planning on issuing allowances for people to go out in public, which would've been somewhat ironic.

    Not that I don't think it's a good idea - it's the only way I can think for society to start picking up the pieces.. although my thought was "well, people are going to start forging the armbands/certificates, aren't they?".

    Mind you, the flip side is - apparently here in the UK there's been a spate of people attacking NHS workers going to and from work - which boggles my tiny little mind as I can't begin to understand the mentality that would lead to that. Visible arm-bands wouldn't be good with shitheads like that about.
