You don't know they are lying and it does sound like you hope a second wave hits them to be honest

it is not possible to contain fully in the city of Wuhan at this moment, even if it was, they deserve no praise, lives of millions of people ruined because of their eating habits, world as we know will never be the same.

Not at all. Hes an expert in life. Didn't you hear him tell us that?

It's not about giving out praise, but go ahead and carry on wishing the worst on 1.4 billion people

So my current plan is to work from home while looking after 2 children(wife will do the same) and sort of try and get away with it as long as possible while basically doing very little, thoughts?! (this is slightly complicated by the main part of my job is talking to customers....)

When I worked from home my job entailed telephone interviews that sometimes lasted over an hour.

At the time both of my kids were under 10.

The way I did for over three years, was to turn the least used, quietest room in the house into an " office " and told the kids that when I was in there working they weren`t to come in. By and large they stuck to it.

Also if you explain the situation to your customers I`m sure they`ll understand, as the chances are a lot of them will be working from home too !

Shame, rip life as we know it

News that the government is preparing to impose new measures that would have us lose any freedom for up to 2 years are terrifying for a number of obvious reasons.

I wonder what the plans will be for produce given the restrictions on movement at the moment. Obviously no eastern Europeans will be coming to pick fruit and vegetables this spring/summer. Maybe @Joey66 will dust down his trowel? Hopefully there won't develop a sense of economic nationalism where food isn't exported and preserved for domestic markets.

My main tool was a saynor propagation knife Bruce......

Oh no we’ll pull through. If they stop people eating out every night and going the gym life should be ok and many many life’s will be saved.

During coronavirus South Korea has been a model of transparency and I wish other governments would trust their populations with such data access as I think long term it builds trust, fosters accountability and reduces panic.

South Korea does everything right.

As soon as China lifts their very strict lockdown I suspect it'll spike again. Whether we hear about that or not is a different matter.
