a couple of people over china way appear to have got it twice but that might be faulty tests,our medics say you get immunity when you have had it but they dont know if it is lifelong or short termCan I ask. Has it actually been ruled out you can get this more than once?

In Bolivia only one adult is allowed out from each household. If your ID ends in 1 or 2, you can go out on Monday, 3 or 4, Tuesday etc. No-one is allowed out at weekend.
Maybe in the UK they could divide it up differenty 8-9am pensioners, 9-10:30 middle aged, 4-5pm, yoof etc.

well i dont think they have been catching the virus in their houses in italy and spain,the numbers havnt come good yet but they will, full lockdown is around the corner not because of you and your dogs but the dickheads that have been out and bought new bikes and new lycra outfits, they didnt bother before so why are they so obsesed now, i hope you have a yard or good back garden for your dogs and hopefully for not to longI like walking my dogs every evening, a full lockdown isn't the right thing nor is it necessary as it hasn't worked in Spain or Italy at a sufficient rate to go into it now.

A few more on-the-spot fines would have a big effect. I’d much rather see that than everyone get “punished”. Would it really take a massive resource?I would imagine that more draconian measures are possibly required due to lack of resource to police a soft lockdown. The few idiots spoil it for everyone else. I do agree with the sentiment of your post but it sems that many people are unable or unwilling to grasp the notion that it applies to them.

To their best knowledge on how this kind of virus works (the coronavirus being a known group), they're quite strong in their belief that you can't, but scientists won't say concretely that you can't because it goes against their nature and ethics. They deal with evidence before confirming anything, and the simple answer is that they just don't fully know yet as its just not been long enough. No scientist worth their salt will say people will be immune a year from now as they can't prove that 100%. They're best guess is yes, as there's no obvious reason our body won't develop immunity, like it does all the time for other viruses, but... ya just never know? Can only be certain when you're certain.

I'd also suggest that there are lots of companies who have re opened in the last week, a lot of businesses were unclear what to do following Boris's lock down announcement and so made the decision to close, at it has become apparent that their competitors have remained open they in turn have returned to work.
More people returning to work means more people out and about to get to and from work.

I need my once a day, ex doormen, ex sas.
20 stone of muscle, I need my run, bike ride, weights on the park in vest. Takes me hours.
But last three weeks
ex grafter, 22 stone fat fucker, only thing I’ve lifted is a wine glass, I’m so close to been more or less hospitalised I might as well just get covid.
Eating drinking should be a form of exercise. Id be a champ at it.

No, the OP said we would all starve: left or right all the same when hungry.
You miss the point, but that's fine...
So long as when you run you give people space. My own observation has been that runners and cyclists are getting closer to me than pedestrians whereas they should be twice as far away, again imo. Both runners and cyclists have the ability to slow down and wait their turn if a little bottleneck occurs but they don't seem to realise this or give a fuck.
Not in any way having a go at you Matt but people in general are not being that sensible.
Maybe some people could adjust their exercise regime accordingly and for the betterment of everyone.
This has been driving me mad too. Runners just panting right past without even attempting to keep their distance. People walking tend to, but runners don't. Weird. It's literally always the runners too.
The problem with the whole "let people have some leeway and they will be sensible" thing is that people continue to push the boundaries of that as time goes by and it is impossible to police. You constantly see people doing things they shouldn't and they will all find ways to rationalise it, but the reality is that the virus doesn't give a shit about your excuses. I get that people don't want to stay inside, but that's fucking irrelevant tbh

But i'm a middle aged man who still thinks i'm a youth but my body aches like i'm a pensioner :)
More moronic behaviour here. Just despair.

Our Sainsburys has an 8-9 for pensioners. My wife spoke to some pensioner friends she was checking up on yesterday, they were saying they have given up on it, they all queue outside as they are only letting 50 in at a time but most seem to have no idea what 2 metres is then when they are in they all crowd around the same aisles then stand chatting when they meet their friends. They went mid afternoon instead and there was nobody in straight in and outIn Bolivia only one adult is allowed out from each household.

And despite them panting in your face and flinging their sweat particles at you, it tends to be the runners that lose their shit at people for breaching social distancing. They think they are kings/queens of the pavement. Worrying about their pacing/time during a global pandemic.This has been driving me mad too.
