This has been my mode of operation for the last couple of years, untill the virus started impacting Australia. Now restrictions etc are changing so quickly that you pretty much need to keep up to date. Got to say it's not doing my mental health any favours.
One thing that has suprised me is the lack of any non-virus news that is around. The virus and it's fallout can't be the only thing happening in the world at the moment! The only non-virus related news I've seen over the last couple of weeks is a couple of local court cases and North Korea firing something into the ocean. Oh and we had a local government election here in Queensland which got about an inch of coverage.
This tells me that most of the normal news we get fed is pretty much non-essential filler.
