It’s nuts. The missus works at the hospital. I came out of isolation the day the advice changed to household isolation for two weeks. She goes into work today and mentions it (she’s had no symptoms), staff start kicking off saying she should isolate. Occ Health say no she’s fine. Then later in...

Beezys chance to rescue his season.

Nope. Gonna cost a lot of money and a lot of jobs. It’s that or kill hundreds of thousands though. Glad it’s not my call.

Just telling you what’s in the Imperial paper the government are basing their strategy on. And this isn’t lockdown. It’s social distancing. Italy and Spain are in lockdown.

Online tutoring might be a good shout. Especially if the schools close down. Usually pay more if you’re a trained teacher or have a particular qualification (degree/PhD).

Lockdown allows people to go to work and we aren’t talking about lockdown. We are talking about the measures implemented yesterday. Read the paper on them it’s very clear what the plan is. Extreme social distancing, school closures, work from home, everything short of lockdown until a vaccine...

Can’t help but feel people really haven’t grasped the seriousness of this. All this talk of “lol I’ll just carry on” when the message from government is very clear that you won’t. The plan is these measures are here until a vaccine is with maybe small breaks if NHS capacity allows. Reminds me of...

Agree. Best comparison is the total deaths to see where we are on the curve. Everything else is skewed by testing strategy and other things. Big one will be two weeks from now when we see if yesterday’s measures have worked.

Agree with a good 80% of that.

The measures don’t start until the weekend. If he doesn’t self isolate then I’ll agree with you.

Too isolated.

?? I’m reading the paper the government is using.

Don’t think it’ll make much difference. They’re talking about these measures until at least the end of the year. Think it’s time to accept the season won’t finish and just hope we go up anyway.

Pointing out Tory mistakes has always been “making things political”. Standard.

Not good reading. Basically we shut down for 18 months or quarter of a million people die.

Still in denial I see.

I think they’ll keep a skeleton staff in for key workers children and shut the rest by next week.

Shit. Just realised I’ve lost my second job. No way exams are going ahead.

Sorry Pete but everyone could see the data and was screaming at them to change course. The idea we wouldn’t be affected like every other country in the world was just ridiculous.
