Hello guys,
I think you should be informed about this from a person who lives in the "epicentre" right now.
I'm Italian and I live in Italy. All Italian cities have been declared "orange zones". We have 12.000 infected and MORE than 1000 dead. Quarantine started very late for us. Our government did not work properly at the beginning of the crisis.
Actually, cities are desert, we just go out to buy food and avoid any contact with people. We all use surgical/filter masks. Streets are empty. Jobs are over. Shops are closed. The economical backlash will be DEVASTATING for my country.
This is a terrible situation. All upcoming productions/movies should be delayed like "The New Mutants". You Americans are in danger as well, please don't overlook this.

So why should productions be halted? You mean productions in Italy, right?

Well I hope your situation improves and you and your family get through it unscathed but...
a) no one here has any influence over the status of productions, so why bother posting
b) not everyone here is American, yet all nations make films
c) I'm sure all those concerned will stop any productions and don't need someone on a message board to tell some other people on a message board, with no influence, to make this happen
d) Will you be calling for this action on all DC productions in the DC board...or all horror films on the Horror board. Or have you lowered so low you turn what is a worldwide crisis into some minor Marvel trolling

I can understand that Italy movie productions should be halted but last I checked none of the MCU movies were an Italy-based production.
So not sure what the point of this thread was.

The point is that AMERICAN productions set in the AMERICAN country can be dangerous for everyone involved, right now. The virus is spreading in USA too, and believe me, it's very very very contagious. It's exponential.

I don't know what mass-medias are telling you Americans, but believe me, this is a 100% risky situation. It's about your safety.

Because America's situation can fastly become similar to Italy's (SADLY). The only difference: our health care system is not private, it's public.

Well I ain't American but I know it's a big deal. Jurassic World and Baatman have halted production too. The whole film industry has turned upside down over this.

The only difference: our health care system is not private, it's public. But America's situation ISN'T like Italy's, and it would be foolish to implement extreme measures when the situation doesn't warrant it yet. So in the end I have to ask, what exactly was the point of this thread? Why did you make this post specifically only on this board and not others? |

I don't think the mask thing helps if you don't have the disease, it's more a thing to prevent you spreading the virus than contracting it, someone infected can still sneeze on you and get it in your eye or something with the mask on regardless, best not be silly and waste the resources so those who are sick don't have them to utilise to best contain the infection.
Also this is pointless who here do you think has any power to make this happen? also the movie industry is not going to make or break the outbreak of the virus over there, and most movies have been postponed for the foreseeable future, iirc someone on a show checked it's like a month till any new movie has a wide release in the theatres, they already are taking precautions and lots of productions have been halted, so you are just being foolish, calling for thing that are already taking place.
Hope things lessen in Italy though, bright side because we could all use some apparently there are almost 25k cases in Italy, no not the good news, but just about 1800 deaths, so it's actually over 20% less deadly in terms or the life and death ratio of the disease than you said, thank god for small mercies.
