Coronavirus update - NO MORE RESTRICTIONS

[Divine Wright]

Re: Coronavirus update

Fair enough, but to me it seems that whether it's a Govt. official, a 'Health Specialist, a Journalist/reporter, a TV interviewer, a radio presenter - whenever they're discussing or announcing something to do with Coronavirus it's given dramatic treatment as if they really want the situation to be more serious than it is. Some nutter on drugs blows himself up and we have 'COBRA' meetings to urgently discuss the latest [so-called] terrorist threat. Weather temperatures don't 'drop' overnight, they're going to 'plummet'. It's another reason why Blair, Hague, Cameron decided to help bomb 3 nations into anarchy - the thrill of playing soldiers, looking at maps, sounding all grim and serious - they loved it.

Anyway, they're all prats and I don't pay attention to any of them..

If you haven’t done so, you should check out the link ti the italian doctors twitter account. That is worrying and real.

Re: Coronavirus update

Stock markets react strongly to things like confidence, sentiment, expectations, so yes. Huge losses in the markets may seem amusing and trivial to you but they are going to affect may people's lives..

Re: Coronavirus update

It's the new Y2K

Y2K was only stopped because millions was spent on engineers fixing issues though. It might not have been planes falling out of the sky kind of thing but things could have been proper ****ed. Everyone always acts like Y2K was nothing but it was just a well planned out and well mitigated event.

Re: Coronavirus update

Being cynical (just for a change!!!) as the shut down unfolds, companies on big contracts struggling to deliver on time and facing LD's for being late, (and would have been late irrespective) may just be frantically checking their force majeure paragraph of their contract.

Lots of small businesses are going to go under I reckon.

A lot of a big ones too I think. Few airlines might be in trouble. Wouldn't be surprised if norweigen were pushed over the brink.

Re: Coronavirus update

So with the new government advice you should stay at home for 7 days if you have a high temperature and/or new cough.
Hopefully the club will issue a statement to re-enforce the message and tell people not to go on Sunday if it applies to them.

Re: Coronavirus update

Italy’s outbreak has had over 2500 new confirmations and 150 deaths in just the last 24hrs. That is very disturbing as it’s not slowing down but accelerating like a rocket.

I've said in the past, I don't believe a word Boris Johnson says, but he is stating categorically that this cannot be compared with seasonal flu.

I wasn't being serious, old fruit. Hence the coat emoji.
