COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[inchy14]

Adults are at the schools , their parents are back at work, kids get it but not get seriously in most cases and do not spread it as easily as adults

Wait... those kids who’ve had 6 months off school? Those can’t catch it or spread it significantly?

 

[cleavers]

Bollocks, if the kids can’t spread it why are they closing or part closing schools.

Because teachers are more vulnerable to catching it, if kids could teach kids no schools would be closing, but head teachers and governers have a responsibility to their staff.

Also why has this spike coincided with schools reopening?

It hasn't the spike started 3 days after most schools went back, far too early for kids to be the cause of the current spike, it needed to be a week at least, it wasn't, the catalyst was a shitty bank holiday weather weekend, it started the following weekend, ie a week after the bank holiday.

Up yours, you believe sky if you like

The problem is who do you believe?
Different scientists have different options.

No but I’ll listen to some other scientists than just Chris fucking Whitty.

Last month the government would pay for half of your Big Mac, now they are threatening to set the Army on us. They are all over the place.

Why a week? Schools all go back on different days to start with plus we’re told symptoms can start showing after 2 days, if you even sneeze now everybody thinks they’ve got it, I can see schools sending kids home for tests straight away.

Looking at it logically, I feel like the government did that to get one final injection into the economy - as they knew this was coming. I'd put money on it non essential services like restaurants/pubs and bars will be shut come November.

Why a week?

Because that's the time people are most infectious after catching it.

I don't believe a word anyone has said about this shit show since March.
Valance and Whitty are two of the most Clueless wankers to have walked this earth, they are just making it up on the hoof.
They are literally destroying the country.
Boris since being at deaths door has completely lost the plot and needs replacing, I can't believe what's happening, really pissed off, worried for everyone.

Lol!!!!
It does feel that mad at the minute, I'll give you that ;-)

Ok but symptoms can show a day or so after catching it. Plus the kids will have all been mixing the week before they started going back, shopping for uniforms and school stuff for starters.

Fuck me. Just had a message - a person in my team ( started working last week so to be honest didn't know them well but I know he was struggling with working from home for a prolonged period ) took their own life this afternoon. Married witha 4 year old kid. I have worked at home for donkeys and its been no skin off my nose and I'll be honest I have questioned all this referencing to lockdown and its effect on mental health but this is bloody close to home

Load of absolute shite right there. You might not like the measures, but Whitty is not a 'clueless wanker'.

They’ll be many many more mate, it’ll be disastrous for so many people. Suicides will be a huge consequence of all of this.

He’s up there with Neil Ferguson for me... worse case scenario every time.

Very sad to here that - I'm not sure why more companies are not making it 'optional' for people to get into the office if they want. Anyone who wants to work from home can, but if you feel the need to come in you can do that. I went into the office today and it has done me the world of good.

True mate. And a hell of a lot of missed illnesses.

Would you rather they sugar coat it?

we had spoken on the phone twice so yeeah it could be caused by a myriad of things but to do so after Johnsons speech just does feel like the straw that broke the camels back. As I say I am pretty immune to it all due to lived experience but if so this is awful. And remember this person worked or was on furlough throughout - I fear for those with real money worries

If we have an increase in suicides because people cannot go to the pub past 10pm - I'd really start to question the mental wellbeing of society at large. People are still able to get help, you cannot totally lay the blame of someone taking their own life at the feet of others.
