very good shout. I can’t disagree. I’ve heard talk about online teaching which could happen in due course
Ps there is no doubt they will close schools/ban larger social gatherings but just not yet.
Another thing is letters and deliveries.
It's all well and good saying don't go out anywhere and self isolate but if somebody has sneezed on a letter or a parcel then how long can it live for on those and how many people are in contact with it before me?
The evidence from SARS is that viable virus is not detectable after drying onto an absorbent surface such as paper. There is no reason to suppose that this coronavirus will behave any differently.up to 72 hours on some surfaces i think
People ask "why is the UK so different from everywhere employing more drastic measures?".
The answer to that may be "Why has the UK suffered MUCH less from the impacts of SARS, MERS-CoV, swine flu and avian flu than many other comparable countries?" - beacuse of the expert epidemiological modelling and getting people to do the right thing at the appropriate time. We are (or used to be, before the virus of social media) a largely compliant nation. If people go off and do their own thing, the models will go wrong. We need to trust in the experts (Boris is only a mouthpiece).
Yes maybe you're right, after all the country's Prime Minister has a great track record of always doing whats right, of being clear and transparent and always has the very best & most ethical advisors around him.
When did this become a political thing?
It it was everyone else saying what you are saying you'd have a pointYes you're right, everyone else is wrong, they don't have the benefit of our British superiority in these areas.
lol, I know you aren't that stupid so you carry on with your crusadeIt it was everyone else saying what you are saying you'd have a point

What about every teacher with a child?They can close the schools if they want but teachers should still be able to attend other people are having to try to carry on we had two cases at work last night, they didn’t say close the building we had to work on.
So you are saying all other experts are critical of the ul. This is not true.lol, I know you aren't that stupid so you carry on with your crusade
I think he’s pointing out that swine flu hit in Obama’s first year of his first term as president so he had little time to change anything whereas the corona virus has hit in Trumps last year of his first term so he’s had over three years to address this but hasn’t. It’s a criticism of Trump. Right Dom?Whats your point?
The irony of this though is that people like Trump were labelling swine flu as fake news, accusing the media of over hyping it etc. just like Trump has this time.
For every expert, there is an equal and opposite expert.People ask "why is the UK so different from everywhere employing more drastic measures?".

Who?My employers are doing their bit, we've just been told to carry on as normal, if ill, stay home and you will be paid fully, any time off will not go on your record, won't even need to self certify for first 14 days, I hope everyone else's employers are being so generous.
Not all expertsFor every expert, there is an equal and opposite expert.
Phalidamide,
Y2K
Gulf war1
Gulf war2
SARS
Foot and mouth
Blue tongue
The uk will never vote for Brexit.
Etc etc etc. All things that experts got fantastically wrong.
You still listen to the people who've trained for years and have masses of experience in a subject ahead of the bloke down the pub, as the experts will be far more likely to get it right.For every expert, there is an equal and opposite expert.

I did see somewhere package delivery is OK. Why I’m not sure but apparently they were relying on delivery drivers in China during lockdown.
It's then touching screens to sign for stuff. Not everybody will go and wash their hands straight away before they can touch their face.
Would have thought that delivery drivers themselves are at risk of having it and taking it into every business / home they deliver too.
Got an email from Deliveroo saying they were offering no contact drop offs now, seems sensible. About to do an Amazon Prime order so will see if they do the same.
Errrr. But they don’t get it right, That’s my point.You still listen to the people who've trained for years and have masses of experience in a subject ahead of the bloke down the pub, as the experts will be far more likely to get it right.
