I honestly can't see a way out of this without military curfew style measures unless we just let several million die. People in europe dont like being told what to do, but then at the same expect to be safe from crime and get treated when you go to the hospital, and get rescued when their building catches fire.
Can't have it both ways, there is a social contract that you need to adhere to.

Now we’re sitting here talking about it, we’re noticing how quiet the road is. We usually moan about the volume of traffic.
It is eerie. We’re in strange times eh?
I fecking despise Ireland and our "Sure we'll be grand" attitude to everything.
Don’t do ANYTHING together. Period.
Edit, actually from yessterday
France 3661 79 deaths
Spain 5232 133 deaths.
I thought Spain was 5700 last night
What worldmeters do for Spain and not others is add more throughout the evening as if they get continual updates after the official one for a few hours.

Shelves are emptying quickly in my local SuperValu. I live in village of about 5,000. Fairly middle class area and doesn't stop from people hoarding I guess.
Yeah, it's not nice is it mate?
For us it's weird cuz we've got a 7 year old who's just buzzing around everywhere completely oblivious, and a month old newborn who obviously requires a lot of time and attention.
Neither of them (thankfully) have any notion of what's going on with this (yet), so it's weirdly draining trying to keep the energy levels up for them.
At the same time, we're insanely grateful for them being here.
I'm also really, really angry at how older / unwell people are being talked about like meaningless stats everywhere as part of this 'strategy'.
We’re going to have to but it’s a long way to go for us just for loo roll. It’s crazy because there’s no supply shortage is there? Just knob heads stock piling.
Is there any truth to the rumours there’s a lot of xenophobia in Italy now towards overweight foreigners with obvious Respiratory issues?
If so, any reports on Lukaku?

39 new cases in Ireland, second death.

I agree, a lot of older people I know are feeling very upset about it and that’s on top of the fear they have. This is not a good time to feel old and vulnerable.
Ok, cheers lads. Perhaps it's not as much of a certainty as i originally thought. Although you'd have to assume given his age and health he'd be in piss poor shape if he did get it.
Agree, it's a shitshow. I am lucky in some ways, live alone, don't have to work, saw what was coming weeks ago and whilst i didn't stockpile I changed the stuff I bought to longer life foods. For what it's worth, GC are pretty strict here generally, but I'm next to a drugs hotspot.

Yeah mate.
I've been thinking about things to do to help, but because of isolation being so important it's difficult really.
I used to visit an old folks home near me and do voluntary music for them (playing guitar) and just chatting and having a laugh, but obviously you can't go near them at the moment.
I just don't want them to feel alone, scared and unwanted, I want them to know that they matter and aren't being cast away during this.
He must have an arsehole like the Channel Tunnel.

We've been cheating evolution for far too long.

Diarrhoea is apparently not a major symptom of the CV.
Why is everyone stockpiling?

after this weekend I think people will start taking it seriously when the death toll will rise and will "touch" someone these feckwits knows. Somepeople only learn the hard way.
You stay save brother
Because people are fecking cnuts
If we were talking about gastroentiritis I would get it but in this case it's just perplexing.

Because everyone else is.

True. We die in interesting times.

Maybe toilet paper will be the new currency.
we’re doing shopping online for a few of the elderly’s on our street. There’s a big elderly population in our village and some are very good to us so we’re trying to help where we can but we’re also very wary of going round now.
Because they are Knob sacks.
You can bet your arse on it
Next stage of this toilet paper madness. Don't forget how coddled the modern anus is.
When this this is over, there needs to be an investigation with all those involved, going to prison.

Superb
Chuckled at this when I was reading this thread earlier...just seen on FB a group of mates have gone to a trance all nighter in Coalville! For anyone who's ever been there it's a very bleak and weird town (near Leicester) so guess that's one way of bowing out from social events for next few months!
Surely they must be trying to resell them for a profit?

Fat Duck fecked - eaten there a couple of times, never on an evening (impossible back then to get a table, but still shows how everything will be affected)
