A new public awareness campaign has been launched, urging people to "stay at home" in an attempt to encourage the public to comply with lockdown rules.

It comes amid growing fears that people have not been observing social distancing rules, as case numbers surge, hospitals become swamped and deaths continue to rise.

Funny, how quick they have reacted to my post last night.. ;)

But honestly - do you all think THAT message has ANY effect at all?

That's why I think we have to show anyone what behaviour exactly is correct
and what is not.
Nobody listens to such a yawning statement anymore.
Following the rules is about human behaviour and we have to be very smart to out-think ourselves when we want to have a measurable positive effect.

The UK has now reported more than 80,000 coronavirus-related deaths, after another 1,035 were added to the total.

The total number of deaths within 28 days of a positive COVID-19 test now stands at 80,868.


Another 59,937 coronavirus cases have also been recorded, compared to the record 68,053 on Friday, when the highest number of deaths was also posted with 1,325.

The scary thing is the nhs isn’t exactly top heavy with extra staff to cover these nightingale hospitals. How long before we are flying doctors and nurses in internationally to give the NHS a fighting chance in the next few weeks.

'Encourage' the public to comply with lockdown rules? How fucking lily-livered is that!?

 

[Tricky_Trev]

The scientists are saying the lockdown is not at all restrictive enough. So I guess in 3 weeks time we’ll see a response to that when the figures have spiralled by enough for the government to react.

There was an ICU consultant on 5 Live last night saying traditional NHS hospitals in London won’t have enough pressurised oxygen to take in greater numbers of seriously ill Covid patients very soon. Staffing is a very big issue like you say but the physical design and plumbing of hospitals may be forcing Nightingales into Covid use in London (based on what I listened to). As opposed to continue to try and expand ICU beds in existing hospitals.

London hospitals may also send some patients to Wakefield (Yorkshire) as there is likely to be capacity to take extra patients in West Yorkshire for a few more weeks.

Just been told by the Mrs her dad has covid. 14 of the 18 residents in his care home have caught it. With his health issues, it's a real concern that he has the strength to survive.

Great. So in a month the locals will have no beds in their own hospitals because they've been taken up by Londoners.

What further restrictions are they suggesting?
