How long till the shops are out of alcohol then?..

Gonna be the next mass buying.

I'm ahead of the curve on that one, seemed like the obvious to be honest.

Rum, Overproof Rum, Gin, Vodka, More Rum, More Gin and the rest.

If I end up self isolating then i'm spending my time watching Trump's press conferences with the sound off.

It's comedy gold watching it this way and just making up your own dialogue to his gestures :)

Seriously now, going off the advice from Boris tonight I am expecting tomorrow at work to be decimated, his advise was anyone with a fever OR a cough.

Well we have loads of people with coughs who are in work as the information they were given before was specific to a new or dry cough.

My wife has Asthma, works in a school and has had a cough for a couple of day's. Going off the advise tonight we should now be off work for 14 days.

What happens tomorrow when a guy at work coughs a few times and the people near him complain.

I took the advice that in your wifes case she should now isolate for 12 weeks.


This is where it is confusing, asthma, arthritis, IBS and others are on the flu jab list along with kidney and heart conditions are all on the serious health list, but does that mean all sufferers should now be isolating?

18 months minimum I understand!

China using it all up

France have done it right.

15 days, stay in your homes, thats the only way you prevent it re-emerging, if everybody is quarantined the infected can't pass it on.

I assume they'll have to have the military and police on the streets to enforce it though.

Hope she stays well,at least now we have a list,they have been very slow putting this out

She’s a warrior to be fair. Spent two of her teenage years in hospital, has never been able to work and is often ill with something but I've never heard her moan about it or even show signs that she’s unhappy with it. Not once, ever.

The message from the French leadership is miles beyond what we’re getting in the U.K.

Yeah. Put the entire nation on a war footing.

the issue with this is that because the French won’t build up immunity it only takes one case and then they lock down again

What industry are you in?

Events industry, no gigs. I know a lot of freelancer technician who have been hit hard too

To be fair he openly admits that:


And I agree with him, it's a war thats taking lives and needs extreme measures.

That's true but then thats also true of every country so far, only takes 1 person to slip the net.

A total lockdown like France's is the only way you can possibly avoid that 2nd breakout.

Events industry, nobody spending money and has hit us hard
