COVID-19 — Coronavirus

My post was tongue in cheek, hope yours was too haha

Ha ha.. not entirely. School holidays you can tolerate excess noise etcetera but the prospect of six months of it is a bit daunting.

By treating us like Adults? It is the people, we should be able to be asked to do something and conform rather than getting battered in the streets by over zealous coppers having to force us ffs.

As has been made patently clear over the weekend - too many in the U.K. don’t deserve to be treated like adults.
I’m currently into day 9 of lockdown and it seems the Spanish have figured out in the main how not to behave like cunts.

Its not fucking hard advice is it

wash your hands every couple of hours

stay in if you can

if you want to go outside that’s fine but do not gather in groups and stay 2 metres apart from others.

How can people not understand it?

Coz their Neanderthals, Benidorm sticky Vicky fuckin muppets, beer beer we want more beer, pissed up hangover do what’s right take the family out, nobs

Swedish PM is going to address the nation in less than an hour, hasn't happened in years. Rumors are that Stockholm county is going in to lockdown. Don't know what to think.

I've no time for Johnson but I would have welcomed a lock-down 2 weeks ago

2 weeks ago we were losing 2-0 in the derby and while this shit was real, it wasn’t all consuming in the way it is now. 3 weeks ago it was all about the League Cup Final which saw 35000 of our fans in attendance. I think a lockdown then would’ve resulted in a huge backlash from the public. That said, I think it should’ve happened a week ago.

Next problem.

Woman in her 80s (and respiratory problems) wants house cleaning. House cleaner wants to do it - because she likes cleaning, and it's her job, and there's still no word of help for the self-employed if she can't do her job. Elderly woman accepts the risks (lost husband to start of dementia+cancer and wouldn't want to go that way). And she says a nurse at the local hospital (which is normally over busy) says no-one over 70 will get a ventilator. Discuss. (No "bell-end" comments please.)

Those statistics aren't even close to being right and it's an indictment of how thick the average person is in the UK.

My maths isn't great and only looked at the Italy figures but 5000 deaths out of a population of 60M would be about .008% wouldn't it, which is more or less the figure quoted?

yep, usa is being absolutely hammered right now. Guess they increased testing too, though I've read today that at some place they tested 500 people and 50% came positive.

Herd immunity working there?

It might be where you are, but I saw intelligent people with families walking in the park I overlook today, no sign of what you are talking about, just people taking advantage of a sunny day to get some fresh air before we are all denied it later in the week .
