    We should make a 'which TTHer will get it first' poll. The smart money is on Magic, I'd say.

    Probably not, but they might feel it for a few seasons.

    They were taking staff numbers/contact details today for their essential/non-essential lists, so we're definitely on for a couple of weeks off if the government steps its business up. I offered to work for double money but health and safety fascism wins again.

    Huge article, but one that's worth reading.

    https://medium.com/@tomaspueyo/coron...e-f4d3d9cd99ca

    The tldr message is that every single country where this is present agrees that you need to flatten the curve to allow the up to 20% of people who will need medical care when they contract it to get that care, it's only our country (and possibly the US) that disagrees on how you do that.

    If we're wrong, then fuck me.

    'Daws', but he got it off one of the Group ignoring their symptoms to run an errand for him, so officially which TTHer got it first?

    One of us may well already have had it. The government's 5-10,000 people may have it line yesterday is pure fantasy and they know that.

    Why is that then. My immune system is thrice the strength of a normal man, and my hygiene levels are disturbingly high.

    Plus I work from home, so I'm not exposed to filthy offices.

    Somebody in my college class (yesterday) had just returned from Madrid on Monday, they went in to full lockdown on Tuesday. She said not a single fuck was given at either airport. She's probably killed us all.

    The US are closing schools (which I don't necessarily think is a good idea), but as a result we're now standing alone in our approach to this.

    Majority of people in the UK need to get a mild dose of coronavirus for "herd immunity", chief scientific adviser says
    I do wonder if these people are now likening themselves to modern day Turing's and Churchill's and have run mad as a result.

    I get the logic behind that quote, but there's no way in hell you can manage that happening in any way that would get a certain and desired result.

    I'm currently finding extremely weird the juxtaposition between the whole world shutting down, and, at work, everything carrying on completely as normal. I guess this is our WW2, but this time the conscription is to our sofas.

    Exactly the same. Zero prospect of working from home and none of our customers have changed their behaviour at all. I guess it's herd immunity for me.

    "Do not just let this fire burn" - that's what World Health Organization director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus warned governments at the WHO daily press conference.

    He urged countries to “find, isolate, test and treat every case to break the chains of transmission”. Every case found reduced the risk of spread, he said.

    More than 132,000 cases have been reported from 123 countries, and 5,000 people have died.

    A new fund has been created that individuals and non-governmental organisations and businesses can contribute to for medical supplies and funding.

    The WHO reiterated that "every person on the planet" should know the signs and symptoms of coronavirus - fever, dry cough and a sore threat, as well as difficulty breathing for some people.
    Found Ted Ross' updates. Make you right Jim, this contradicts significantly what we're doing. I got the impression yesterday we won't even be testing people for much longer.

    I find it all absolutely fascinating, with the extra frisson that the UK have now introduced making it all the more intriguing.

    I'd also say that I have no medical, scientific or epidemiological knowledge whatsoever, but from a purely common sense/bullshit test approach have donned the fuck out of what should have been done early doors and largely continued since.
