Sums up a lot of what's happened in the UK during the last ten years.On of the twitter comments summed it up nicely... vote for a tory; get a tory.

Jake?Jeff is awesome
You do realise that there is no guarantee that you will be ok if you do end up getting it? Not sure why you would want to be in one of the poorest countries in the world over one of the richest in that scenario.Yeah I'm mainly worried about the local population as well. There's sooo many people here many of whom have their daily lives on the streets due to all the small shops etc. being there. Then you have the food culture of sharing things and eating with your hands. It could explode.
With regards to me and my partner, I'm mainly worried that if we do see an epidemic here that we'll have great big targets on our backs. But that's not really that bad in the grand scheme of things.
I’ll be going to work (school and my clinic) as usual as we have to. Other than that, no option is there. Do as you’re told and it may help it flatten quicker.
The gym will have to close I assume but not sure that comes under ‘socialising’.
YepReally?
My normal gym time will now be spent with Jeff Cavaliere at Athlenex.com.
I'm sorry to hear that. The bolded part is intriguing because the deterioration is supposed to be gradual not dramatic.My cousin has been intubated and admitted to ICU, suspected covid 19, incidentally had a negative test but signs and symptoms point to it and treating him as such and suspecting false negative. Was in daily contact with him for 2-3 days prior, dramatic deterioration with shortness of breath. Has two kids and wife who are shocked. Mid-30s, no previous medical issues, previously fit and well. Not allowed to visit either but can get updates via phone from ward.
Sorry to break it to you but its like 94 quid a weekNope. I’d get SSP which is about £135/week I think. That’s 3.5 times less than I normally pick up, happy days.
Not from what I've read and heard. It can be very sudden, even coming after a period of improvement of the initial symptoms.I'm sorry to hear that. The bolded part is intriguing because the deterioration is supposed to be gradual not dramatic.
Friend of mine has an autoimmune disease, went from nothing to full on disaster and admitted to the hospital.I'm sorry to hear that. The bolded part is intriguing because the deterioration is supposed to be gradual not dramatic.
What I'm saying comes directly from the person in charge of the Covid-19 at Arnaud de Villeneuve CHU's. Their cases, as long as italian and chinese cases are gradual, not dramatic which is why his remark was interesting because if he indeed is infected by Covid-19 then it adds uncertainties.Not from what I've read and heard.

Initial symptoms were gradual then one day morning onwards was quite short of breath, taken to hospital into isolated side room, oxygen saturations were 91% on room air (usual targets are 94-96% in unwell patients), started on nasal oxygen, was fine, then around midnight suddenly oxygen requirements went up in a few hours to needing venturi masks, not maintaining sats, intubated and taken to ICU within the hour as was reaching respiratory arrest.I'm sorry to hear that.

Is he positive to Covid-19?Friend of mine has an autoimmune disease, went from nothing to full on disaster and admitted to the hospital.
Thanks that makes more sense, it was gradual until the beginning of respiratory difficulties.Initial symptoms were gradual then one day morning onwards was quite short of breath, taken to hospital into isolated side room, oxygen saturations were 91% on room air (usual targets are 94-96% in unwell patients), started on nasal oxygen, was fine, then around midnight suddenly oxygen requirements went up in a few hours to needing venturi masks, not maintaining sats, intubated and taken to ICU within the hour as was reaching respiratory arrest.
That’s the danger of certain independent sectors, how are you protected without union representation? Surely they should. After all school fees will still need to be paidI work in a private independent school and we've just been told we won't get paid if/when a quarantine happens.
I'm fuming and honestly don't know what I'm going to. I cant afford to pay my bills on SSP.
Anyone else having similar issues?
Dude, get the hell out of there. Do it now.Offered an option to terminate my internship, continue my internship, or returning to Italy and doing work from home there. I am seriously considering getting the third option, but I am scared to death that I might catch the virus and then infect either my mum (65) or my brother (in a wheelchair after an accident 26 years ago, so has a weaker immunity).
At the same time, I am a bit scared that the system might crash hard, and then being stuck in the US without a home (and potentially without money) is not an ideal scenario. Still thinking to stay but seriously considering returning. One of the toughest decisions I have made in my life.
Most likely, won't get the results until later today/tomorrow.Is he positive to Covid-19?
I've also heard the opposite to this. Dramatic deterioration.I'm sorry to hear that. The bolded part is intriguing because the deterioration is supposed to be gradual not dramatic.
349What was the death toll in Italy yesterday?
Cloth nappies and a flannel.
What I'm saying comes directly from the Italian government... The virus is unpredictable and can be incredibly dangerous. Not always, but it can be.What I'm saying comes directly from the person in charge of the Covid-19 at Arnaud de Villeneuve CHU's.

In Ireland the govt are paying people illness benefit for the two weeks which is 50% more than the regular sick leave.Are people’s organisations paying people if they are self isolating or will have to have time off if schools close or is it unpaid leave?
349.What was the death toll in Italy yesterday?
Exactly, I know people who’ve taken pictures of themselves hooked up to machines in a hospital to prove to work they were ill.It's a cultural thing. Most organisations just don't trust their employees, so people feel like they need to prove that they're genuine.
349.
What I said doesn't mean that the virus is predictable or not dangerous. But based on what emergency services in France, Italy and China witnessed, what you are describing is supposed to be anecdotal, it's interesting and worth being kept in mind but it's seemingly not how it generally works. Now, the more dramatic deteriorations happen, the more health services will have to revise their current organization.What I'm saying comes directly from the Italian government... The virus is unpredictable and can be incredibly dangerous. Not always, but it can be.
The first patient here, a 38 year old, had a fever then recovered. A week later he woke up in the middle of the night unable to breathe and spent the next month in ICU.
Exactly. The focus is always on the one who cheated the system, rather than the vast majority of people who are genuine.Exactly, I know people who’ve taken pictures of themselves hooked up to machines in a hospital to prove to work they were ill.
Feck I can’t afford to self isolate. Within a couple of months I’d have nowhere to isolate.Sorry to break it to you but its like 94 quid a week
With the new legislation SSP kicks in from day one so equates to about £114 a week now. That's the minimum, employers can choose to pay more.Sorry to break it to you but its like 94 quid a week
Dont think thats how it works. Day 1 to 3 was zero. The next 7 days was 94 then the next was 94 and so on.With the new legislation SSP kicks in from day one so equates to about £114 a week now. That's the minimum, employers can choose to pay more.
Catch 22.London is going to be an absolute state. Lots of low wage people living in high priced rental accommodation. My friend is a chef and still says the restaurant is still full. It’s going to spread massively and then the hospital won’t be able to cope. I don’t usually blame the government for much but their lack of foresight on this is ridiculous. Everything should be closed now for two weeks.
Lack of testing I expect.Curious how India, the world's second most populated country with 1.3 billion, has managed to largely avoid all of this (only 119 cases according to the Johns Hopkins site).
