More people being tested who already had it before the lockdown
2 week incubation period for one. Secondly it’s so contagious even popping to the supermarket is dangerous.
And I don’t know how serious a lot of people have taken the lock down.
Got a similar nearby , apparently they are struggling as one is self employed , others though in famiky working guaranteed good pay thorough high end positions , two cars, mortgage free , savings anyway we are aware of them , they love what capitalism has delivered lol
Personal responsibility is key ,but folk are selfish, had to go for petrol yesterday cars ramed into Asda , and petrol station ,as long as the fit and young are healthy feck the rest , we have 30 petrol weeks with of food .
I might be wrong they maybe all shopping for the vulnerable and key health workers or stripping shelves for selfies reasons ???
I haven't been able to purchase a toilet roll for a week as I refused to bulk buy thinking others would follow 🤔
Fecking governments fault or this colour one 🤫
Incredible.

Is it time for marshall law , as folk are hard work and selfish , you'd think think they would see the rise in these awful deaths and care , and become responsible ?
Again, incredible;-

On the contrary, it's entirely predictable.
A large percentage of the people in this country are ignorant, arrogant, selfish or just plain stupid. That's always been the case, although the percentage does seem to have been on the rise in recent decades, but maybe the advent of social media has simply highlighted the situation.
I admire your faith in the UK population if you believe these stories are incredible.
I live by Colombia road flower market and it’s actually open today. Only around 20% of the usual crowd but there are so many people crammed into a tiny street. Cannot get over what these people are thinking.
Signs have been put up in Bala telling visitors to stay away.

I volunteered to be a local co-ordinator in leafletting people in my street and being on standby if they go down with the virus and need shopping etc. However, the I observed the first volunteers not thinking anything of being a huddle around a table when collecting the leaflets!
It's interesting how some countries seem to have far fewer fatalities despite the amount of infected being greater.
Ive just come back from a long walk around the country park where i live.
Came across a waitress I know who is now unemployed.
She would have seen the same as me a touring campervan taking over part of
a car park with what looked a couple of families sat around on deck chairs eating and drinking. Play areas with children and also adults on swings slides and climbing frames.
Im all in favour of people going out for walks but surely we should be closing access to cars and camper feckin vans , closing play areas etc.
Im sure this is the same all over the country.
On the other board there is a thread about how well Boris is doing. Someone actually questioned those giving him a poor rating asking what more he could do.!!!!! Unbelievable.
This by the head of a visiting Chinese Red Cross delegation visiting Italy suggests that parts of Italy are having the same problems with people not adhering to the advice as here, and look where that's got them

They've shut the virus down in Wuhan because people were told to stay in and f**king listened. Or had to. Time to take the choice away here
Sadiq Khan was on the Andrew Marr show earlier and highlighted the fact that the "well to do" in London were slipping off on hols or their second homes thus increasing the spread.
They discussed whether there should be measures put in place to stop this.
Lockdown can't be far away surely.
Sorry just seen your post, have to agree.
Mind you, it is the other board; raving right wing nutters! Explains everything!
I listened to a podcast earlier where somone in France said the night before their lockdown everyone flocked to the pubs for one final blow-out, and now everyone is crowding their national parks.
Seems familiar.
I fear for the US (where I live).
Some people are taking this seriously but many are not. Here's one example. Last week the mayor of Phoenix closed down all the bars and restaurants so what did the idiots do? They all Ubered across the metro area to the city next door where the bars/restaurants were still open. Here's another example. I live in a co-op and the older folks have decided to do a communal jigsaw puzzle to pass the time. You couldn't make it up.
There are too many people here who slavishly watch Fox News. I walk my dog regularly around my neighbourhood and talk to people as we go. Twice in the last week I came across elderly people who thought it was "made up" and "nothing to worry about".
I cannot see a lockdown in the US (certainly not outside of California and the north east) happening. I hope people will accept it but I fear the conspiracy contrarians will not. If they put troops on the streets I fear we'll see armed conflicts flare up.
It’s mad that 2 weeks ago Fox News was calling it a hoax and an over reaction. To me how anyone can try and politicise a virus is beyond me.
Stay safe, I fear the US will be hit quite hard.
"I live in a co-op and the older folks have decided to do a communal jigsaw puzzle to pass the time."
You couldn't even make it up. Nail on the head.
Which branch?
Statements like this from the president don't help reassure anyone that he has a grasp on what might happen. The US is the absolute last place I'd want to be living right now (sorry az and nycblue). Mass illness and death, production and supplies shortage, citizens with guns, it's a horrible mix.
WE CANNOT LET THE CURE BE WORSE THAN THE PROBLEM ITSELF. AT THE END OF THE 15 DAY PERIOD, WE WILL MAKE A DECISION AS TO WHICH WAY WE WANT TO GO!

21 year old with no other illness dies from covid 19. This is particularly worrying-
“ A report from the United States' Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found 20% of those who had to be in hospital after contracting coronavirus were aged 20-44-years-old and 18% were 45-54-years-old.
Of those admitted to intensive care, 12% were in the younger age bracket while 36% were in the 45-54-year-old range.
"Clinicians who care for adults should be aware that COVID-19 can result in severe disease among persons of all ages," said the report, published on 18 March.”
Is it his fault that people are bloody stupid??????!
