- We went to Rotherham…
Newsnight just announced an emergency meeting of the premier league management about the cancellation of the league. Lineker says cancel it, not postpone.

"There was now a multitude... who practiced without having received the slightest tincture of medical science - and, being in ignorance... failed to apply the proper remedies."
"[Others] maintained, that to drink freely, frequent places of public resort, and take their pleasure with... revel, sparing to satisfy no appetite, and to laugh and mock at no event, was the remedy for so great an evil." "Not all died, neither did all escape."
Boccaccio in The Decameron (1353). Funny, you could apply this to the Premier League's handling of the COVID-19 situation.

Italian Coronavirus cases as of now : 15103
Sunday, 4 days ago: 7375
And this is because they literally had no containment precautions in play.
Let's be clear here, the issue isnt one of numbers who will get the virus, there WILL be an awful lot. The issue is how FAST those people catch it. If the pick up rate can be slowed, it gives the health authorities chance to match the illness with resources. If the numbers are too large, the system is swamped, and more people die as a result.

All they have to do is suspend it with a review in 3 weeks. Give themselves some time to plan. If it gets a lot worse then cancel it. It not that hard.
