All bars and clubs now also shut down in Qatar to go with just about everything else.

Pretty much in lock down as the experts are trying to prevent the community spread of the virus. Sounds a good idea to me personally.
 
That’s fair comment. I go to Bergamo a couple of times a year and I realise people going into self-isolation isn’t any easier than here. Maybe Agnelli can follow the Italian Government’s advice the next time he’s thinking of commenting about a Atalanta BC lol.

I agree that sometimes our Government needs to take a tougher line. Their ideology is about free market liberalism as well as being populist opportunists. Football
Isn’t so important at times like these.
Lol to be honest I along with other Juve fans don't always agree with our chairman's opinions, and his "superleague" idea is one of the things I wouldn't want to see happening. At least he usually expresses his views calmly and in this case his reasoning is a rational economic one more than a sporting one. I still think he's better than a lot of other chairmen obviously ;)
 
along with @SWP's back - who also doesn't seem to get it's a good idea to follow sound scientific advice rather than the herd instinct.
Ohh the fucking irony. By your logic, we should listen to the 3% of climate scientists that deny anthropological climate change rather than the 97% that know it’s taking place.

After all, they’re scientists and experts and not following the herd.

You really are that shortsighted that you believe whoever is saying what you want to believe.

Your loss though as you’re the one that’s likely to suffer the most, not me.
 
Some posters have assumed that “herd immunity” is the Government’s strategy when that is to delay the spread of the virus so that our health services can cope with it.
Tell me how doing very little is likely to delay the spread more than say, doing what every other country is doing in restricting gatherings and closing bars etc?
 
It’s not behind a paywall.

It is wrong in general to be releasing it via just one paper though. Very wrong. Ditto leaking things via Peston.

So it showed up on the telegraph before showing up on dept. of health official page? Yikes.
 
My son in law who works for NEXT as a drivers mate was sent home from work today they closed his depo down.
With them sending the workforcentre home atleast they get paid.
C.T.I.D
 
I’m a little surprised by the lack of foresight of some of these news reporters. In light of Boris calling for industry to turn to ventilator production, I’m seeing people stating that this “suggests the government fear we don’t have enough”. Are they for real? We knew this with basic maths already. Our spare ventilators will last us the next 12 days or so. Then we’re done. We knew this, which is why we should have been in lockdown from a while back.
 
By keeping schools open presently, we are in essence using our children as the tool to spread the disease through the 'herd.' They will then close the schools to 'slow the spread.'
Personally I think it's a disastrous plan but its happening and I hope to god they haven't got this terribly wrong

It was behind the paywall and that was ripped to bits as stupidity and now been unlocked.

It also wasn't on the Gov site till a few hrs ago.


This marr interview is telling us fuck all, he is probably doing his best, but he just doesn't seem capable, labour John ashworth sounded equally useless this morning too.

What's the score over there for bogroll mate..
 
The wife informed me the head masks you get measured for have ran out, apparently they get them from China and for obvious reasons there not getting any at the moment you couldn’t make it up. The best though they said the face masks were not very efficient before they heard they could not get any head masks from China now it’s safe to wear them. I bet the ward managers won’t try them out first

Apparently they are going to force schools to stay open rather than close them.
