Are they not all set up to do testing from the start and have very different populations etc?
Totally agree with you Karen. That could be the next reality gameshow for them. When you see the footage of how hard the staff are working, how draining it must be for them. Thinking of the families who have lost loved ones. A few months at home in your nice house isn't that much of a sacrifice surely, with all the creature comforts at hand. I'm missing seeing my kids. Luckily enough to have my eldest grandson who's 19 living with me, but can't wait to see the other 4. 30 mins facetime is good but not the same but eventually it will be a sacrifice worth paying if we all come through and the NHS isn't left on it's knees. Hope you're well after your recent episode with it.Those idiots don't understand that this is not about keeping them safe it about every one of us keeping each other safe,it is a collective effort ,honestly we are being asked to stay in our nice house with food ,beer,loads to watch on the telly or devices and you can talk to anyone face to face in the whole world,it is not a fucking cell
If they want to take there chances getting a deadly virus that might kill them to drop them on a deserted island and let them get on with it
Because our lockdown compared to other countries hasn't been as tough. I'm classed as a key worker. At the beginning of the lockdown work issued us with a letter confirming this in case we were stopped by the police whilst driving to work. I've never had to show it yet. Only my opinion but maybe that's why we are 2nd in the league to America in terms of number of deaths.Sorry for quoting the Mail but if true this is madness, our borders have been shut for months, and will remain so.

What's the point of people being in lockdown if they're letting in foreigners ?
Apparently 170 flights per day arrived at Heathrow including 10 in one day from New York.
You do know that teachers have to plan lessons and mark work, don’t you? It’s not a 9:30-3:30 job. That’s their lesson time. Even milk time has been taken from them.

These countries have been doing contact tracing. They have pretty good idea of who caught the virus from whom. Kids get the illness but barely show up as the spreader.Are they not all set up to do testing from the start and have very different populations etc?
Scarily you're probably right based on numbers per population. I make sure I'm always washing my hands. They no longer feel like my own. All dry and weird. I'm still waiting to see that monocle wearing Rees Mogg and the failed leader Duncan Smith. Not seen either of those rent-a-rabid-right-wing qoutes since all this started. Probably tucked away in their mansions with Nanny looking after their every need.Probably 1st if you take in to account the number of people in each country, now wash your hands and sing happy birthday it may be your last with this clown in charge
Some people assume that teachers work the exact same hours as the students. Hence the snide comments about working hours.
The reality is that the vast majority of the 8.00-16.00 working hours is teaching based. I’d wager that at least 80% of all the lesson planning and marking is done outside of those hours. Marking one set of books or a set of exam papers can easily take the best part of 2 hours as well.
The teachers I know all work at least 45 hours per week and whilst it doesn’t make them saints or heroes, they don’t deserve the shit they get.
The management of UK borders has been fucking shit. On what fucking planet is the home office policy on by not making sure someone isolates for 2 weeks when entering the country.Sorry for quoting the Mail but if true this is madness, our borders have been shut for months, and will remain so.

Even Bumbling Boris doesn't know what he's thinking half the time. You would have thought that someone who had contracted it would have had a better understanding of the seriousness of it. But no, not Bumbling Boris.Yes.
I just assumed all countries had closed their borders.
Wtf.. I mean what is Boris thinking ?
They take it so seriously here in Australia that even if you come from another state like New South Wales into Queensland you have to isolate in a hotel for 2 weeks paid for by the government, if you leave the hotel during the 2 weeks you face a $12,000 fine.The management of UK borders has been fucking shit.

It certainly has.They take it so seriously here in Australia that even if you come from another state like New South Wales into Queensland you have to isolate in a hotel for 2 weeks paid for by the government, if you leave the hotel during the 2 weeks you face a $12,000 fine.
I think measures such is this and banning of all international travel for months has helped us contain the number of deaths to 95.
It crashed and burned on Apple phones and some older Android phones. They got Google and Apple experts in to try and sort it out.So when is the app that they trialed on the IOW being rolled out across the country?
Cheers for that. I'm no expert but from what I've seen that's how South Korea contained it so was having high expectations of it.It crashed and burned on Apple phones and some older Android phones. They got Google and Apple experts in to try and sort it out.
Taiwan offered them their source code too. Let's hope they adopted it.

Well certainly if you buy things here in Spain we should protect the workers.Literally nothing is safe once you leave your front door, so that is absolutely impossible.
