Just seen it online and was wondering what you all made of itOh man. Doesn't make any sense. At the start he says the bucket represents the population who all has the capacity to get sick. At the end he said the bucket will stay full, but it will only stay full if everyone in it gets infected due to not quarantining early. He is just assuming everyone in the bucket needs treatment, that wont happen if you stop the spread. Isolating people is the only possibility to stop the spread. "Slow it down when we really need to"? Infect everyone, then quarantine them? What will that slow down? Nothing, as a lot more people will be sick at the same time, with no treatment available to many. It will kill more vulnerable people than necessary.
Thank you kindly.Let us know if you need any help
Put all these people in enforced quarantine once they return.Tweet

Small decrease since yesterday... but yesterday was a huge spike compared to previous day so it means nothing yet.
You can buy toilet paper just fine in Poland.That's worldwide mate.
Gives me slightly more confidence in the UKs strategy wrt behavioural science.
Can’t believe Johnson hasn’t closed the schools I’ve got a 5 year old nephew with type 1 diabetes he’s high risk, this is very irresponsible leadership from the prime minister. Can’t he see he’s putting lives at risk? Or does he care?
Christ, going to Benidorm and the likes is trashy enough already before this! Fat feck.Tweet

Give it another couple of days and they will close the lot. It’s exactly the same as what happened over the rest of Europe.Exactly it’s madness
If they don’t want people to go out socially to certain places they have to power to close them. Bizarre that they’ve chosen not to do so.
Let's see in a week.You can buy toilet paper just fine in Poland.
Can you point me to where you got those figures for Lombardy from? Would be good to see the regional effects to see how the lockdown etc is doing.Lombardy had 1367 new cases today, a relatively low number compared to the last week. Lockdown is 7 days old now so hoping this is the start of a trend in the right direction rather than an anomaly.
202 dead as the spike in cases last week translates into deaths.
And a little bit of positivity in the press conference, some areas are beginning to see an easing in patient inflows, and all the equipment ordered when the outbreak started is beginning to arrive.
Just to put you a little at ease. As I'm sure you know, severe cases (ending up in death) are a lot lower (at about 0.01%) for children between ages 0 and 9. Although he has diabetes, that number will also include children which have complications such as diabetes. Where the real problem is if you are older than 65 and have diabetes. But if your family is worried about him, they shouldn't take him to school.Can’t believe Johnson hasn’t closed the schools I’ve got a 5 year old nephew with type 1 diabetes he’s high risk, this is very irresponsible leadership from the prime minister.

We’ve been in lockdown for a few days already. First couple of days were a bit crazy in shops but today you can go and buy whatever you want.Let's see in a week.
In the Italian bulletin they gave (was watching in Whatsapp while talking to my brother there), the number of new cases was under 3k. So, this info might count some from yesterday, dunno.
Would be tempted to just pull him out anyway.Can’t believe Johnson hasn’t closed the schools I’ve got a 5 year old nephew with type 1 diabetes he’s high risk, this is very irresponsible leadership from the prime minister. Can’t he see he’s putting lives at risk? Or does he care?

Yeah, I advised his mother last week to just pull him out of school, we can make something work between us.You do have the option of taking your child out of school if hes at risk . We all have a responsibility to act on our own initiative as well . I,m not having a go at you by the way . Just because we are not told to do things , does not mean we cant make that choice ourselves. My mum is in an extremely high risk category . From the weekend we decided to not have her out of the house in any public space ie shops . She still cares for her older and infirm sisters so there is an element of risk , though reduced . If he were my child i would not hesitate in taking him out of school .
At the end of the day , every governments advice is for the many , it cannot be tailored for each person.
Hope hes fine by the way.
I just mean that we knew coronavirus was a thing and spreading before there was a single case here. China had tons of cases before they had any time to prepare for it.Why would you say they are the least prepared country? They are probably the best equipped country to deal with something like this, given their political set up, twinned with the fact that they essentially produce everything in the world.
This .Get the batons out.
Fair enough, what do you think of it? It's the sort of visual logic non-sense you see in propaganda. "This is an apple that's a boy. This is an orange, thats a girl. These two things are not the same. Get it? Here is a nasty rotten banana, this represents transgenders"Just seen it online and was wondering what you all made of it
The government page updated daily is here.Can you point me to where you got those figures for Lombardy from? Would be good to see the regional effects to see how the lockdown etc is doing.
Here they were out this morning in hazmat suits and trucks spraying the streets China style. Never expected to see that in Italy, or Europe.Here in Italy in our area at least, everyone seems to be complying. There are very few people around, people are simply staying inside or in their gardens except when they have to go to the grocery shop.
There are far fewer cars around but the post is still getting through, rubbish is still being collected, delivery lorries are still turning up at the shop. I'm still getting Amazon parcels but they leave them at the gate now, which makes sense!
That’s embarrassing,

The Irish government has closed all schools and pubs for example, I think you are better to be safe than sorry so I just can’t get my head around not closing schools it’s so irresponsible.
The first set of numbers they give are new cases minus deaths and recoveries. 3233 is the total new cases.In the Italian bulletin they gave (was watching in Whatsapp while talking to my brother there), the number of new cases was under 3k. So, this info might count some from yesterday, dunno.
In any case, it is less than yesterday and that is great.

Why not just move to the next stage rather than risk people(Although a smaller number) getting infected ?I think the measures are deliberately ambiguous to be honest. This week you’ll now have 50 people in a pub instead of 100. Next stage you lock it all down and have 0 people out on the streets. It still makes sense to me
wish they would get Johnson out the way though. Sick of listening to his waffling he’s out of his depth
Why do they need to when just encouraging compliance would likely be just as effective? You don’t have to be draconian. People who run these facilities, like pubs, can consider whether there is any exceptional social value to keeping them open to feed isolated and vulnerable people. The overwhelming vast majority of people will make the right decision.The police couldn't manage closing pubs, stopping big social gatherings or specifically allowing for older or more at risk people to Work from Home?
Throw them all in the sea.Tweet

God, that’s terrible you had to make your mum cry but I guess it’s what was needed at the time, I sincerely hope she is going to be okay.Its difficult i know . My mum keeps saying , "yeah i need to do this , pop there , the shop was empty ". she is independant , and stubborn. I told her last night , if she catches this thing , it WILL kill her , no ifs or buts .Sometimes need the hard truth , she cried , she does not feel ready to die yet . I,m glad she did cry , it sunk in , she gets it now . This is a challenging time for everyone , something that most of us have never had to deal with . The economic and personal effects of this will rumble on for years . As it happens , i believe every government is doing the best it can . There are no guarantees any plan will work as yet , every country has different resources and demographics . One thing is for sure though , its going to be a bumpy ride and if everyone does their bit it will help .
