    In my world of volunteer work I have found out that people with serious drug addiction and severe mental health sysmptons are getting $750 a week. No structure in there life and quite transient in the ice world.

    That is going to be fun for Emergency rooms and Public Mental health facilities.

    We're starting to let people go now after a couple of months of reprieve. No furlough enacted (or needed).

    Yeah furlough all well and good if things go back to normal after. No happening.

    We’ve not furloughed anyone as far as I’m aware but gonna have a cull in a few months for sure.

    I don't understand this comment. Surely you're better off furloughing people than just letting them go, with no prospect of them getting a new job in the current climate?

    Phase 1 of 5 of reopening here to go ahead as planned and then reviewed in June to see if phase 2 can go ahead. Too much too soon imo.

    Can you eat ass whilst fighting a tooth abscess? Also how long after a tooth extraction can you eat ass?

    We've not needed to furlough because the economy still needs banks to help in function in whatever format (trading, lending, debt issuance, mergers/acquisitions, private clients, retail clients etc) but we had committed to making redundancies as part of the "transformation" programme which is what we need to do with or without furlough.

    Lads. My father passed suddenly at the start of April. Ive only just had confirmation of the cause over the past few days. He died from a perforated duodenal ulsa with associated haemorrhage.

    Days before he passed, he stated he had stomach ache which is nothing new. Ive explained before to TTH how I wake up in the morning feeling really bad at least 10 times a year. I have a stomach ache and start vomiting. Usually, within 12 hours, the vomiting usually stops with me and then I have the flu for a week later. We both seem to suffer from the same thing. Because we usually have the flu and a bad cough for a week after. We just put it down to the typical common flu. I usually recover quickly from stomach ache and vomiting but my father usually takes a week to recover.

    Because of this corona stuff, I didn't want to take any chances as he was curled up in pain for over a week. I called the ambulance the day before he passed. They did all the home test and he was ok. They stated you can go to the hospital if the pain was that bad, but he refused and would rather take painkillers. He generally does not go to the doctors for anything. He definitely wasn't going while we were in lockdown. He refused to go.

    The next morning is when I feel his body probably started to shut down, he had difficulty hearing what I was saying. He said his ears felt funny. His hands and feet were hurting. He said his head and legs started hurting and could hardly walk. Then he started to act really strange and talking nonsense. I told him im taking him to the hospital. He went to the bathroom and when he came back, he started to breathe heavily and the collapsed and stopped breathing. I applied CPR for around 10 minutes before the ambulance arrived but they couldn't do anything to get his heart started again.

    We both have had previous tests because of the stomach problems we both have had, but they have never found anything. Ive been advised need to have some scans now I know there was an actual problem. I also found out today, my grandfather a duodenal ulsa which he has been living with for years.

    I decided to quarantine with my parents since lockdown which was a good thing in the end. I would have hated for him to pass in the hospital, knowing it was his biggest fear or if he passed away and I was at my house playing PS4.

    Fuck COVID 19.

    Thanks for the kind words. Was in a dilemma on where to bury him. He has been back and forth yearly between England and Jamaica for the past 30 years. He has only been back to Haiti once in the past 20 so I was never going to bury him there. Other family got involved from all the islands but my mom and I decided its best to bury him in England as my mom has zero interest returning to Jamaica now.

    I can’t imagine how tough it is to be there when your parent dies, performing CPR on them and everything. Hope you’re able to manage. You’re a tough lad though, i know you will

    Who knew basing the strategy around the indeterminable R number would cause problems, you just can't envisage such things.

    There won't be a second spike (yet). There hasn't been one anywhere else. Nothing has happened here that hasn't happened in other countries.

    It's an inevitability though. It took at least 2 months for it to be noticeable in round 1 so assume it should start slaying sometime in June.

    My condolences, Sincere.

    My mum is currently going ape shit because my idiot 72 year old step dad for some reason has his mate, who lives in Liverpool, stood in their kitchen in Barrow-in-Furness having a cup of tea. 'No worse than flu' according to this joiner, so that's sorted then. The stubborn old fuck is going to catch this I'm afraid.

    I must admit that I haven't watched too much about what has gone on in other countries but today I see a protest at Hyde Park turning nasty and since Wednesday I've seen countless clips of people using the trains and bus services. It will all go to shit before the end of the month is through, I reckon. A second spike of any sort will screw us for decades to come and I would say it's odds on that that is what is going to happen.

    The London R number had me perplexed a bit. I figured anywhere with the amount of movement on the tubes would spike their rate up. Have .... have they done it? Have they managed herd immunity?
