Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

For it to work there needs to be a whole lot of trust people ensure the vulnerable are safe and from this thread alone I’m not sure people can be trusted.

Lads on here cannot be trusted with a keyboard let alone a vulnerable adult

Agree with you post
The bit in bold however, any good pension advisor will tell you to have most of your assets in cash 5 years before you retire
I am retiring this year and all my assets are in a cash fund
No return but safe

But the brilliant pension advisor would say wipe your bum with the cash, and put all your assets in bogroll. Rolled gold it is, rolled gold.

I was just thinking along those lines Neil.

If everyone is tucked up at home, counting their bog rolls, the smack heads won`t have anywhere to burgle lol

The closed up businesses

As someone who lives in shared housing, gets the underground to work and works on a big building site I’m almost certain I will get it at some point.

My company have said they will close the site when there’s not enough people to safely open the site.

Cash is king, eh.

I was already having thoughts about leaving this expensive dump. They’ve only increased now.

Post the articles if you can, they will obviously still exist somewhere on the internet and will have been translated.

I've had a google but not been able to find anything.

It's far more likely it was transmitted via bats in a Chinese wet market, just like other coronavirus's.

Great watch this

I’m going to be in touch with Netflix and Amazon Prime to start a bidding for my new series based on current events.

It’s about hordes of brainless humans storming supermarkets on their opening and mass buying all food stock and bathroom essentials.

....horse racing behind closed doors from tomorrow.

With the Grand National due to take place in less than 3 weeks, if it happens it’s likely to be without the roar of the crowds.

Hate to be political, but if this was a labour/Lib dem MP- there would be uproar. How irresponsible, endangering the lives of Britons by inaction. Lying to population that he had approached manufacturers weeks ago.

Just been put in 2 weeks quarantine as a precaution. Coughing gets worse, but still not really feeling sick or anything.

Feel better

I see the new infection figures are a completely unbelievable joke now due to testing procedures basically not testing anyone.

 

[Bluerover]

At my office, I would say that close to half of the staff are at home minding children because of schools being closed - we are being flexible here due to the nature of this crisis and there is no requirement to take a/leave.

We are also setting up everyone for the possibility of remote access to the organisation's systems, but there is a limited number of licences, and we will monitor these closely.

I still think a decison will be taken soon to close the building completely.

140,000 people are now out of work as a result of their employment shutting - if we close, our staff will continue to be paid as it is a State office.

Complete wangs. Totally expected by this old horse.

I wonder how many of these several mistakes have been made due to recent acts of replacing/distancing top civil servants.

All being told, they should be thoroughly embarrassed by their arrogance and lack of ability.
