"Given the difficulties of obtaining some types of food and the many other sacrifices which we are suddenly experiencing given the coronavirus, I have granted a dispensation from abstaining from meat on Fridays for rest of Lent, except Good Friday, which is universal law," New Jersey's Most Rev James F. Checchio, Bishop of Metuchen, announced on the diocese's Twitter account Thursday .
Boston's Most Rev Peter J. Uglietto also issued a similar message Thursday announcing that Cardinal Sean O'Malley has allowed Catholics to eat meat for the remaining Fridays. "One of the effects of the current events is uncertainty regarding what food products are available on any given day," Rev Uglietto said in the message.
"At this time, we are called to make the best of what we have at hand or is available for purchase. Many people are using what they have stored in their freezers and on their shelves.
If they could just have a word with upstairs we could have this over in a flash. Or is He not that kind of omnipotent being
As if one needs a bishop's permission to feed one's family?😡

Government considering radical measures to put economy into hibernationThe Federal Government is considering a radical suite of measures to effectively put the economy into hibernation. The story literally contains no information on what this magical thinking is The UK, NZ, Denmark, Netherlands, etc etc have wage support, but 'it wouldnt work for Australia' (assume Oz is super special) And there's nothing else that constitutes 'economic hibernation' I think this is going to be too little too late ScottMorrisonMP JoshFrydenberg MathiasCormann auspol CrimeMinisterMorrison ScottyFromMarketing Good idea.
