COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[Chippy_boy]

The good news is that we won’t know we are into the millions as there won’t have been millions tested by then at 10,000 tests a day (the increased rate)!

That's not *great* news is it. "Your wife has terminal cancer and only 8 weeks to live, but good news, she doesn't know!".

Came across as a bit of a thicko surprisingly.

I didn't realise it was him till she said his name at the end,strange choice to have him on out of all of the footy journo 's out there

With no football and lack of other sports they'll have to fill the air time cheaply. He's probably cheapest they could get.

Perhaps the prospect of having to do some real parenting for 24hrs a day does not appeal to some.

There is sometimes common sense in places you would least expect it. It is one of my lady's grand kids birthday tomorrow. Normally we would have to attend, the place would be germ city at the best of times with several little ones around. I was therefore preparing myself for the row about her not going and what a twat i am. Her daughter has phoned up forbidden us from attending.

They weren’t that keen on you going last year:-)

You wouldn't unless they had been tested and were not counted

But wouldn’t care home managers be complaining to the press that people were dying of corona virus like symptoms and not being tested?

Sky poll 66% want the gov to encourage more working from home

59% quarantine anyone meeting patients

56% cancel large events

34% close schools

27% cancel hosp appts

What have you done differently in last 2 weeks?

61% improve hygiene

24% avoid people you think are infected

24% avoid crowds

14% avoid travelling

25% none of the above

So 25% of Sky’s audience are twats. I always assumed it was higher.

Very powerful piece indeed

I read a twitter thread from a doctor in Lombardy a few days ago. The message was very much the same but with insight into the plight of the Lombardy health service. It is truly scary and whatever we can do personally to stay safe and avoid being infected, we should.

Thanks mate - kind words and much appreciated.

This happened to my Gran. In the end it was peaceful, but it's still hard making that decision. Thoughts are with you and yours x

I think I might panic buy a Playstation if there's a chance I'm gonna be stuck at home for a while.
