87 Brits in total yesterday - as we head towards the peak we're likely to pass 100 a day soon thanks to those d***heads who didn't take it seriously enough soon enough. Wondering what's going to happen in the US of A with their President talking about being "open for business" by Easter and full churches.karlypants wrote:Two people have now died from this in Bolton.
Long way to go yet Karly.

Covid is a bastid
Its running our life
The business's fucked
I can't go out
And make my girl my wife
I've got to stay at home
For at least the next 3 weeks
Playing ps4
Maybe I'll paint a door
Until this virus peaks
The news is all miserable
Its driving me to despair
The world is sick
The government's thick
Especially the one with the hair
Bojo's known about it for months
And sat back and done fuck all
Now hes panicking like mad
Talking at us like a dad
But on deaf ears it will fall
The sooner we all stay in
And stop spreading the virus throughout
The quicker it will pass
I'll bet my ass
Of that there is no doubt
Fo your bit for you and yours
Protect them and yourself
If we do it right
We'll get through this shite
And be free by elf on a shelf (time)

170k of the 250k requested NHS "helpers" have registered already which I think is brilliant and is a sign that at least some people are considering others.

So here's the story. Have to say that this is a great opportunity for jobseekers to get something positive on their CVs for when a degree of normality is restored.

Absolutely. I just hope that they will be given the protective gear they need.

Donald Trump appears to have lost what passes for his mind, and expects the USA to be open for business by Easter, with churches packed out.
Praise the Lord.

If you roll out some pastry, then put two currants about two inches apart near the top, you have an instant Mike Pence. It's uncanny.

Wanderlust there are 12 chicken and mushroom king size pot noodles for £8.40 if you have prime on amazon which might be worth buying for your lad here
Curry and also beef and tomato flavour is also the same price at the moment!

Looking at the global stats, isolation seems to be slowing the spread of the virus successfully although the peak hasn't been reached and for some countries like Italy and Spain the critical mass of carriers has exacerbated the short term problem so they're struggling to contain it.
But what do you folk think about the isolation strategy?
Obvious benefit is that isolation makes it more manageable for medical support services at any point in time.
But there's a question. As people come out of isolation Governments will want to get them back to work to get their economies back on track and in some cases notably China and the USA - and probably us as well - to do so quickly to try to get a competitive edge on other economies. And folk will want to get out again. The balancing act will be doing so at a rate that will keep the spread of the virus at a manageable rate whilst having enough people in work to meet economic needs - but if everybody goes back to work at once the chances of the virus kicking off at an even higher rate of spread will increase.
Fact is we all need to get it sooner or later whether it's by transmission or vaccine and once we have the antibodies we're good to go, but how do you folks see the exit strategy? Is there likely to be a cycle of periods of isolation until a vaccine is developed and administered?
