It is ok to be happy but blink once if you've being held captive

Health and care workers need testing mate. Especially those not dealing with CV but coming into daily contact with the higher risk.

xD I'm not against that. I said in the comment you replied to that I'm not against testing as a whole. I'm specifically talking about the average joe, the general public, wanting to get tested because they're showing symptoms (or, not even showing symtpoms).

No idea. Was a 5 second item that he woke up today.

He's not. He is still immobilized but he can "communicate" by moving his eyebrows from what I read. Basically he's barely functioning. Hopefully he improves significantly but I can't believe he woke up at all.

What are people’s thought on that woman sat alone on a bench in an empty park approached by the police and told to go home ? It felt heavy handed personally , not in a group , nothing more really than somebody who may not have a garden trying to cope with an incredibly stressful time .

I’m sure others may disagree but I can’t help but think it was over the top personally .

Do us all a favour mate and set up your own thread, as you`re doing peoples heads in with all this stuff.

It`s just non stop and the purpose of this thread isn`t for you to push your ideology onto everyone else.

I`ve already started a Coranavirus Politics Politics thread for you, so why not use it ?

I have never put anyone on ignore until just now. He's a bore, isn't he?

How Iceland tested the most people for COVID-19 per-capita in the world

Due to its small population, Iceland has now tested more people per-capita for the coronavirus than any other nation in the world.

Well I am no coma expert, but being able to communicate, however basically, would suggest someone isnt in one.

Anyrate, like I said, it was a 5 second "good news" item on Talksport. For context.

Tell you what though, the startlingly piss poor imagination of TV people is grinding my gears.

The BBC did some decent stuff last weekend, granted, but ITV have a live England home friendly sized hole to fill tonight.

Solution? A Star Wars film ffs.

No, I'm afraid it doesn't. We can't afford to waste medical resources on testing the public, with symptoms and especially without symptoms. The NHS is overrun at the moment, and we're well past that stage anyway. The best thing people can do is to just stay indoors.
