This country is riddled with selfish inconsiderate twats.,but I would just like to thank the 250000 people who have signed up for voluntary work. It really renews my faith in the people of this country. I would sign up but am a carer for my wife but THANK YOU to everyone
 
My neighbour had the scaffolding done front and back, heard him askin the three builders to start on the front as his family are coming round coz there kids are bored.
Just looked out the back he’s got a bbq going and there is four 20/30 yr olds, 4 kids his brother and wife and himself and his wife. That’s 15 fuckin people on in and around his garden, if I had a hand grenade, I’d chuck it over the fuckin fence.

sorry mate, we will be done soon. Sorry we didn’t invite you, maybe next time.
 
It's pretty clear that, sadly, the virus can incubate for up to 21 days in some cases.
We’ve only been on lockdown for 11-12 days so we still have a few days left before seeing any change.

I did see that The Who say it’s an average of about 10 days to die but can take up to 22 days.

The other thing to note about Spain is that according to worldometer they have 38,000 active cases with a current death rate of almost 40% so it’s gonna be an absolute tragic week here.

We have to cross our fingers that the peak is reached within 7 days I would imagine.

A friend of ours and her husband have caught it. They were in contact with someone two weeks ago, who tested positive this week, but it’s not clear if they definitely caught it from her.

We saw our friends almost two weeks ago, after she had seen this girl but currently have zero symptoms.

Do we self isolate?

my understanding is, if you've been in contact with someone tested positive, yes.
NB im well behind so may have been properly answered in the meantime.
 
These are sad figures but amongst the alarm, it should be pointed out that the number of new cases reported from Spain today was significantly down on those of the previous two days. Pray it continues and that there is some respite for the system.

That might be more to do with when each region announce their numbers. Some haven’t been doing it until 10:30 at night so that figure will probably rise. We’re still into pre-lockdown numbers.

Thanks for digging the actual figures out.
The UK's critical figures on Worldometer haven't been updated for days. It should be roughly the number of people on ICU with COVID-19.

Just had a phone call from my mum. My dad is recovering from a bowel operation at Wythenshawe hospital and they are moving everyone in his ward to use that ward for coronavirus patients.
