COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[hilts]

The biggest problem as I can see with the govt position is

Staffing of the nhs
Equipment
Beds
Finances for those who should isolate
Apathy and general fuckwittery of the public.

The press conference didn’t give much confidence in those areas.

Just announced.

Macron has told everyone to stay in their homes, guarantees that he'll help all businesses stay afloat and wipes all gas, electric and water bills for the foreseeable.

Well that must certainly ov lifted the spirits proper statement

 

[Mayor West]

Does anyone actually feel bad at the moment?

As in, feel bad about the situation or feel bad like they have the virus?

Staying classy, probably be like this over here from some if the pubs close tbf.

Embarrassing

Similarly confused wouldn't describe mine as chronic but on the flu jab list all the same. My sister reckons anyone recommended for the 12_week isolation will receive a text message from their GP. Her ex (rheumatoid arthritis) low immune system and my Auntie 70+ have had texts from theirs this afternoon.

I wouldn’t rely on a surgery’s admin being 100%, mate.

Can we self isolate from Twitter in here ? It's getting beyond tedious now.

Like poorly?

I am not sure it will have initially lifted spirts, but I do think it is helpful to create a sense of unified action that requires shared sacrifice and perseverance.

It gives everyone a collective purpose and drive to overcome diversity through collaboration and compassion.

Doing that can be incredibly positive to the general mindset of each person trying to cope with what is happening now and what is to come.

In a sense, many of us get that off here — even though we disagree on many things, the vast majority of us keep coming on because we care about everyone on BM and the discussion helps us feel part of a greater collective responding to the crisis.

As many have said, no matter what, we are in this together and I for one will do anything within my means to support others battling through this, in-person or virtually.

Yes easily.
Delete the wank

If I get some extended time off work I’m putting myself forward for that.

£3,500 is worth being ill for!

needs a few extra 0's for me to be interested.
