6. On a better note, Macau will reopen on Thursday

BREAKING: Macau, the world's biggest casino hub, says casinos will reopen on Thursday after nearly 2 weeks with no new cases of coronavirus




Macau is just a massive city - I hope it's really true they have no new cases, because hey, that's cause for hope for the rest of the planet - they have, of course, a brazillion restaurants and hotels staffed by tons of workers (I was one of them, in my day!) - so they all just went two weeks without a paycheck

Go Macau!
