We can't hide away until a vaccine is found.

We could go underground, do what is necessary, survive, rebuild, it will be hard, but what other choice is there?

My gym used to have social distance methods in before this lockdown..

I agree with the damage to economy being too much to handle if keeps carrying on, depression, suicide, etc etc

Keep over 60s out of harm way, let the younger keep the economy going to some degree..

Yes people will catch it and have problems but MOST,vast majority wont..,

The only option imo

This will be how it happens in most countries.

But right now - and I know you're not saying otherwise - emphasis is on making sure the health systems can handle it until there's a vaccine.

It's another month at least but then we might start to see some measures eased off.

At home

What's the age cut off point then? 50? 60? 70? Tell you what, let's go full "Logans Run" and make it 30 lol lol

At home

Do you know that 76% of accidents happen at home? Then what?

If they said another 30 days of lockdown I could live with that but anything longer would become a real struggle and I'm sure a lot of people would feel the same.

Here`s @Joey66 missus list of expenditure when this is all over :

New boiler suit : £15
New work boots : £30
New welding mask: £40
New work gloves : £10
New mig welder: £500
New sweeps brush £100

Good job Dyson parts are in demand for ventilators.

Reminds me of a mate during my time as an apprentice. A lecturer came into the classroom carrying a new pair of steelies and my mate says "nice boots Mr W, for the wife are they? We all laughed and Mr W became rather irked and started going large on my mate, who proceeded to smile. Mr W then says stop smirking lad how can I give yer a proper bollocking while you're smirking at me, which just set everybody off then.

Then a lot of people are going to die a slow and painful death. Are you prepared to be one of them?

Absolutely tragic news. At the end of this pandemic there really has to be accountability for the bastards in charge.

Bed.

The NI assembly announced the lockdown is continuing for another 3 weeks, which is up to at least 7 May.

I presume the rest of UK will be doing same because the assembly would need approval from the government. Not that it's any surprise like.

Highly unlikely she was working at the time surely?

China needs shooting for this - regardless of if it came about from some bloke eating a bat or from them messing around in a lab.

That regime has blood on its hands.

Interesting stuff coming out of Germany. Current restrictions to be extended till May 3rd with some small exceptions. Shops smaller than 800 square metres will be allowed to open provided they can enforce very strict hygiene measures and limits to the amount of people in store at any one time. Hairdressers will be allowed to open from the beginning of May provided they can enforce the same measures. There seems to be some disagreement between the German regions about when to reopen schools.

Not exactly new that news though is it, all of a sudden we are all more bothered about it
