Saw this happening a week or so ago with all the Lisbonites and Seville well to do heading off to their second homes in the Algarve - idea being less chance of contracting virus in lower density populations and living areas. Showed scenes on the Spanish border coming into Algarve before lockdown there reminiscent of the movie convoy.

Norwegian prime minister has also ordered Norwegians to return to their primary homes after many vacated to their summer cabins to escape Oslo. I suspect the cotswolds and Lake District may have much higher normal occupancy levels for this time of the year.

I mentioned these patterns happening a week or so ago here in the Algarve. So come on who was on the M56 yesterday driving like a bat out of hell?

Todays briefing mostly about getting food to shops,they have cut lots of red tape,supply is not a problem,there is plenty of food,supermarkets are putting restriction things but no rationing from the government,loo roll is made in this country so stop panic buying,manufactors are used to spikes in demand and are producing more goods,about 50% more,the gov has their eye on profiteering

In may time the fruits and veg in season will come throughI

Food is not going to run out,we might not be able to buy our usual stuff but there is plenty of other things to buy

Drs will make difficult decisions but they always have and they will be helped by the public doing what they are asked to lighten the load on the hospitals,everyone following the rules will save other peoples lives

Lose of taste and smell can happen

I've not watched it but people like him need to stop spouting such shit. Firstly he is in a low risk age group and yes being fit and healthy might help a little, but the majority of the people it is killing it won't. Their age and health are the major factors. Also this mentality is fuelling the "Stop worrying you will be alright/it's just a bit of flu" mindset that encourages morons to party on and keep spreading regardless.
