Yeah, watching the difference between our presidents statement and UK's one.
It was funny, like they need to be spoken to like little children over there.SARS CoV-2 coronavirus / Covid-19 (No tin foil hat silliness please)
- Thread starter Don't Kill Bill
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
It was funny, like they need to be spoken to like little children over there.Yep, only essential workers allowed to travel to work or those who can't work from home
Just avoid the 12" Covid special with free Corona beer
I would personally, fast food is bad enough but with the added potential of being infected it's too much of a risk.
I'm looking now, it seems that it won't be. Her bosses are saying they are still open as they can work 2m apart.
Currently it looks like building sites will still be open too.
And the government site currently says still travel to and from work if you can't possibly work from home, but feck knows if that's updated yet...
Not enough officers to do that and daily business
We should've been told what the punishment will be and how it will be enforced. Are police going to patrol the streets and stop the odd car/walker?
Yeah, watching the difference between our presidents statement and UK's one.
If Trump ends the distancing he will feck the USA for a good time .
It's only those who can't work from home I think. That and essential workers.
I have no idea why these measures weren't put in place weeks ago. The faffing around has been ridiculous. We all knew it was coming to this anyway. It would've been nice if the government were proactive.

Electronics shops have been closed.
We are also in lockdown starting from today for 1 week but it will get extended without a doubt. First two patients popped up todayYeah, watching the difference between our presidents statement and UK's one.
That's what I'm saying. Already people in here are saying all but essential, there's so much confusion right now.
So basically, for example, builders will still be going in.
I'm curious, i cycle regularly and even i'm confused as to what constitutes once per day....a 6hr bike ride? So many loopholes i can find already.
Apparently he’s quite vulnerable. When his neighbour kicked the shit out of him a few years ago they had to remove some of his lung. You just hate to see it, he’s such a positive force in American politics.
These lot are trying to outcnut each other.
That's the problem, it's too vague. My friend works for British Steel and has no idea wheter it applies to him or not.
Didnt they announce that all mortgages/rent being suspended and that the Govt are covering upto £2,500 a month? The package seemed to be a pretty good one.
Building sites will be closed surely.
The NPHET are meeting tomorrow and say all measures will be considered. It may be that they recommend immediately implementing similar measures but I'd be surprised, especially given the way Varadkar was playing down talk of a lockdown earlier.
The reality is that we're in quite a different place to the UK in terms of our strategy in dealing with the virus, so it would hardly be surprising if we don't take similar action right now.
Way I see it is you can't win either way.
Going to the supermarkets or even getting a home delivery still carries the risk of transmission.

That's just crazy. We are actually in danger of having half our stuff in one house and the rest in the other one. And paying double rent...
No self employed have to go on benefits, which can take up to 5 weeks.
Yea i will just cook the frozen pizzas instead.
That is for employed workers only. Self-employed still left in the dark. Assuming its taking longer to sort something due to the increased complexities.
We are sort of in a partial lockdown. Places were empty today. Funny there was a que on mcdonalds before it closes.
Seems like he's trying damage limitation and turning the argument round.
What he's done to date (or not done) doesn't make great reading?

I have to move out of rented accommodation this weekend to a new place. I assume I’ll be allowed to do that..I hope taxis are still available...
Apparently it's been rounded to one hour of brisk exercise but can't remember him saying that.
Yeah, that’s right.
Anyone know what OAPs can do about getting shopping if they can’t get deliveries? Tesco cancelled the last one on my parent in-laws. They are 73 and 81 ffs
I am going to get a max one delivery per month and I am going to wipe it all down in the porch before I bring it in. Cardboard can stay outside
The official guidelines will slightly differ from what he said presumably.
They won't be. Essential work only. I guess they'll clarify it tomorrow like they did with the schools?
It’s the right decision and there’s not really much else to do without going full dystopian movie. Construction workers need to be told to stop working though.
I just see there still being a decent loophole for a lot of people if they so wish to abuse it, especially outside of cities where nothing will really change aside from big groups in parks perhaps.
