Interested to see how they are going to police all of this now, as you're obviously going to have dick heads flouting the rules.

How do you stop people going shopping every day etc...

Will it be a thing where you have to present ID?
Who to? They’ve got rid of all the coppers and there’s no army to speak of and Dads Army have just been told to stay in for 12 weeks...

Most people are very compliant we have become a nation of do as you are tolders, the army and resources will be deployed in inner cities, there will be drafts from the TA and others on the recall list to bolster numbers.

Not every area will need high profile policing and military intervention I have no doubt the hotspots have already been determined, the only question mark is how severe that intervention will be if there is violent unrest or failure to observe a lockdown.
 
Trump speaking now.

10,000 units of hydroxychloroquine being made available from tomorrow in New York hospitals. He made a very interesting claim. Chloroquine is an anti-malarial drug. he says that the virus has not done well in those countries which have a malarial problem because they have high prevalence of chloroquine. Intriguing.

Except that Chloroquine isn't used in most parts of the world with malaria problems as it is no longer effective due to the resistance to it.
 
So I guess I go to work in my hardware store tomorrow and see if the cops tell us to shut? Absolutely no idea what is going on
 
ok, now even the BBC are saying hardware shops stay open, so I am no longer relying solely on the Sun, which was not particularly reassuring

Health officials in Nigeria have issued a warning over chloroquine after they said three people in the country overdosed on the drug, in the wake of President Trump's comments about using it to treat coronavirus.

A Lagos state official told CNN that three people were hospitalized in the city after taking the drug. Officials later issued a statement cautioning against using chloroquine for Covid-19 treatment.
