if they have confirmed in writing that you are furloughed then they cannot ask you to work with those 21 days. After that you have to agree to an extension. We have been extended to 31st May but can be called back to work with 48 hours notice.

Your work should pay you and claim the amount back from the government.

Thanks mate. It’s not for me. I’m fortunate enough to to work from home. Just thinking if people are being asked to go back to work wef Monday then it could be within the 21 day minimum to qualify. What happens then.

It is a horrible dilemma facing many families. I had a serious conversation with my nurse daughter about her lack of PPE which went along the lines of your kids are your first priority. Happily those issues are resolved but it was only a matter of time until someone decided that the risks of inadequate PPE were just too much.

She must be really torn,say thank you and stay safe

Another seven big cats have been confirmed as having COVID-19 at a zoo in the US.
Four tigers and three African lions have been diagnosed at the Bronx Zoo in New York, according to the Wildlife Conservation Society, which runs the zoo.
The animals were tested after a four-year-old Malayan tiger called Nadia developed a dry cough and loss of appetite in March.

Who knew big cats can cough

2 domestic cats have tested positive in new york,Dr Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases has said animals and pets can get the coronavirus but there was no evidence they could transmit it to humans.

Heard that one before in China but then it was Human to Human.

They say they caught it from a human,i wonder why they can't pass it back to humans,maybe they can and we just haven't discovered it yet
