I'm really hoping this guy's modeling turns out to be a closer to reality than many others out there:

An Optimistic Assessment of COVID-19 – The Aleph Blog

Frontline staff were told today you don't need protective gear unless the patient you are seeing is suspected to have corona virus. Still no tests for NHS staff. This is moving at a ridiculous rate, unfortunately the government is not.

I just re-read it and think I’ve answered it, sorry.....

What is it then that you believe should not be allowed to be bought?
You're not a politician so you are allowed to answer without getting permission from Boris.

Odd that Sweden isn’t under lockdown....

Maybe Karen from Swindon will finally pipe down and stop demanding sperm & blood samples for cigarettes and 6pm curfews for everyone.

FA cup final tickets.

However, if you wish to talk medical, which is what I thought you did, that’s why I asked if you believed in private medical health care....

Social media experts being wrong.

Social media experts being wrong.

You’re the one who’s wrong, mate. You’re trivialising something that’s extremely serious. Today’s lower death toll means nothing

Have a read of twitter mate and folk actually stating the death toll today isn't correct and there is some big conspiracy afoot by the Tories.

Sadly this whole pandemic has shown that the loud mouths on social media have the ability in putting unnecessary pressure on the government and their decision making via their voices amplified by a media happy to stir the pot to make a quick buck.

If everyone piped down and let the experts get on with things we would be better for it.
