In other news the Chinese are apparently going on as normal in certain provinces with the meat markets packed. The whole world needs to ban anyone coming or going to China, enough is enough.

Sanctions and banning travel to and from there indefinitely, until they improve their food standards and the government stops lying.

They need casting out into the cold over this.
 
Sounds a long way off but it's only 12 weeks or so. Boredom is setting in already. Realise what a waste of money sky and Netflix is. Fuck all worth watching. DIY stores shut so can't do any decorating. Last resort talk to the wife, apparently she's quite nice
There is tonnes of stuff on Netflix!
 
Numbers from Italy are promising. There is a peak over there, I just hope it won't get too extended.
 
The Chinese figures are laughably bogus. 3,300 deaths out of a population almost 30 times that of Spain and deaths of around a third of Spain’s.

Government insiders here think it’s 14-15 times higher than reported.

Deaths in China likely to be 50,000 absolutely minimum.
 
I have to say I have little sympathy for people who have travelled abroad in recent weeks and who are now demanding the UK government repatriate them. Some woman just been on BBC News moaning about being stuck in India but she is on a course and she only travelled earlier this month. Did she not think to postpone this course and that it would be wiser not to attend it?

As for people that have started cruises after the Diamond Princess heavily publicised debacle....

Anyone here rumours going round about lockdown until 21st june, would seem about right to me, get those testing kits going first.
I was guessing that Monday 15th June, which would be 12 weeks from last Monday, would be the day everything sort of drops down a level and things start to open up again in stages.

At least there’ll be some good Hollywood films out in the next decade showing this mad cover-up of China over all this.
 
Another day goes by, another day wasted on the testing front.

The government seem quite content to go on with this lockdown strategy when technology seems to be changing the situation. Where is the mass testing strategy? There isn't one. In Germany they have changed their approach. Their record on testing was worse than the UK,but at 5 minutes to mdnight they think there's mileage in trying to quarantine infected people. If you can do that, I am certain that that is the way to go. It's far more effective than blunt force curfews. That should be the strategy of third world states who don't have a sophisticated health service and state. Follow WHO guidelines.
