I wonder if we're actually using the malaria and HIV medication that early trials seem to be suggesting are effecting against the virus. Trump is going on about it now but the Australians and French (amongst others) have also been doing testing with those drugs that looks promising. Not sure where they are manufactured or what supplies of them with have in the UK but if the results continue to look good, every country will be after them.

Trump? I wouldn’t trust Trump if he said he really had been Tangoed.

This is what happens when you go above the healthcare capacity.

The second column becomes very close to the death %

Today’s announcement in an absolute farce. Not that there’s anything to announce, “have faith” but not telling us what to have faith in. Wonder what they’ve actually been doing all day, maybe brainstorming sound bites to keep repeating. Shocking leadership, shocking planning.

No but I just watched Trump lying through his arse for 1 hour. No comparison mate, and as I said never been a fan of boris. But Trump in a different league for incompetence and lies, at least boris has the intellect to communicate and delegate.

They can't win can they?

The very same people who were moaning like fuck that we weren't getting daily updates are now the very same people who are moaning like fuck that the daily updates aren't giving us much new information.

If/when the lockdown comes, what are the time scales?

Surely they can’t just announce it and say ‘go home now’ but then again they can’t give a weeks’ notice as everyone will be raiding and looting shelves in preparation.

24 hours?

Other countries have given 24-60 hours notice.

Maybe in comparison to Trump, he still turns up to address the nation with unbrushed hair and tells us nothing. His approach to this whole scenario has fucked us royally

Give us some information, pointless doing it to tell us nothing has changed and please stop social gathering (whilst we don’t close anywhere)
 
We have not shut down for the foreseeable, though we will be working from home on projects.

Still got staff asking shall we meet up for a pint?

No we have been closed to isolate not go on the piss
