Boris is on? I thought Gove was doing tonight again.

405,000 volunteers already,wow

 

[Didsbury Dave]

well if it spreads in the uk it could stop the dippers winning the title

This post is from January of this year when nobody had a clue what was in store. Am I right in remembering that Marco was also the first to break the mews about ADUG?

When they send the 1.5 million letters out, send us a test

Ffs

To be fair with regards to the PPE, if one company is making 500k masks a day we might well be already sorted at the manufacturing level. Distribution might be the problem.

It might but how long does it take to distribute these essential items ffs ?

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Good call. Maybe Johnson and the cabinet can pack & address them too?

Seriously, who is best equipped to do this? Government or a company like Amazon?

They’d better test the people licking the envelopes before sending them out!

I find Whitty waffles, but I take from that the antibody test hasn't been fully verified yet.

Just been to my local chemist,it is a beautiful warm day,the sea looks gorgeous,i cannot see a lockdown working as the weather gets warmer

Strange how we all lockdown, stop using cars, pollution reduces and it suddenly goes nice and warm outside.

I can see a three tier society developing. Those with immunity, those who have it, and those who are waiting to get it!

They used to say that about piles.

 

[kaz7]

Those who have the disease in hospital are tested

Testing self isolating front line workers next

Antibody test,min one week after illness and how many have had it without symptoms is a key figure

Waiting for reliable testing kits

Global pollution has gone down already,nobody can say humans aren't responsible now

It will if people aren’t wankers. It’s 28 every day here and beautiful at the moment and I’m forgoing picnics in the park, BBQ’s and wake surfing. It’s a few weeks of everyone’s lives. They should think about the vulnerable.
