Messaged my mum earlier to tell her to try and avoid going out, 72 with a history of asthma means she definitely can't risk getting it

My dad is 79. Got cancer and diabetes. Maximum risk level. Thankfully he only nips to the local conveniece store to get some rolls in the mornings. Spends the rest of the day in the garden or in the house.

Now, given importance (in other countries) of cluster tracing, importance of having non infected staff back working in NHS, etc. Surely the only explanation here is they want to suppress actual number of infected?

Why else would they not be testing and getting confirmed information?
They gave up on tracing a wee while ago I'm sure and only testing people with severe symptoms now I think?

Which is the complete opposite to China's approach of testing everybody everywhere for fever but maybe that is to come.

They were only testing for coronavirus people who had been in certain countries up until tuesday, since then they've been testing everyone with flu like symptoms. Not sure if that's been the policy elsehwhere, but it's what's been happening where I am.

I see we're now at the “well actually the UK is doing far more testing than the likes of France (*provides data for France from March 5 and data for the UK from March 13th*) stage of the epidemic Rolleyes

Took the dog out today in the lockdown. Eerie as fuck here. Completely dead in the streets apart from the local alkies. Those brave boys from Uber and deliveroo look like they're doing a fine job though, McDonalds absolutely packed with them

I work in a boozer it's been fucking rammed over the last few days. actually couldnt believe some of the shit I was seeing, cunts hugging randoms kissing each other on the cheek shaking hands ect ect. People really are selfish wee quintongos man frightening stuff.

I've started feeling shite over the last couple of days which is no surprise really. Really worried that if I do have it/get it it's more about who I can pass it onto, got a mum with bad asthma my aunts got severe health issues likewise my nan who's been in and out of hospital with lung and heart problems over the last few months  Fat Cunt

I nipped into Tesco at Hardengreen at 4:30 am this morning on my way home from work just to get a few essentials like bread and food for the bairn.

Not a loaf to be seen apart from a wee squashed one on the floor Laugh

Was busy too. A boy literally scooping toilet roll into his trolley as the wee wifey was putting it on the shelf. Warnock

Glad I'm out the food store game these days. Would be absolutely torture working the next few weeks

Ireland closing all pubs. Paddy the Podiatrist only had a small bottle in his back garden so the Irish are taking extreme measures.

Just watched this. Total shite. Makes sense if you're not contagious before you show symptoms. That's not the case. Delaying quarantine means allowing it to silently spread more and more then it's too late to close it down.
