I thought the press conference today with the Chief Scientific Officer and the Chief Medical Officer was good at explaining why they’re making the decisions they areI think give more information about what drives the decisions and be totally open. As spokes people from the who and London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine contradict with what the gov are doing. It is lose lose though.
Have you tried bbc hd on 101- I can’t get normal bbc but I can get that!!thank you. I’ve not got Sky so I’ll pop BBC news on

Me tooI thought the press conference today with the Chief Scientific Officer and the Chief Medical Officer was good at explaining why they’re making the decisions they are![]()
It wasn't awful, but still felt like they were holding a lot back. They say they're driven by science, feels more like economics.I thought the press conference today with the Chief Scientific Officer and the Chief Medical Officer was good at explaining why they’re making the decisions they are![]()
Sometimes you've got to decide yourself, not wait for the govt to tell you. A friend of ours returned from China in January and chose to self isolate for 2 weeks.I'm shocked to hear posters saying that kids have returned from Italy and aren't self isolatingif my child returned from Italy I'd bloody well isolate them to protect the vulnerable around us if anything.
Thank you so much. Great advice,Not silly at all. I get like this and was really worried last week but my husband is forever telling me we can’t spend our lives worrying about something that hasn’t happened yet. I know it’s happening to others but I’m trying to stay positive and do the best I can to protect my family and the elderly by washing my hands, using tissues etc. Also trying to be as healthy as possible, fruit, veg, water, to keep my body in the best shape. That’s all we can do at the moment. Also stop reading the news and switch the TV over, maybe check in once a day so you know what’s happening but don’t read the stories which make it all sound so scary. I’m not saying it is or isn’t but reading them doesn’t help![]()
its not the same country so theres lots of reasons why it might not, difference in lifestyle, ages etc if you think that way then you can’t really explain Germany‘s numbers you know? You can’t compare 2 countries at all.I can’t believe the increases in Italy today - over 2000 new cases and 100 new deaths. I don’t see how there can be any difference in how it will spread here?
As I said earlier, the reason Italy has a high number is they have a high percentage of elderly people. They have said you cannot compare us and Italy.its not the same country so theres lots of reasons why it might not, difference in lifestyle, ages etc if you think that way then you can’t really explain Germany‘s numbers you know? You can’t compare 2 countries at all.
The Chinese numbers rose similarly, I expect France and Germany will have similar figures by next week. The virus just has to hit an area with an older demographic and the mortalities sadly with rise dramatically a few weeks later.I can’t believe the increases in Italy today - over 2000 new cases and 100 new deaths. I don’t see how there can be any difference in how it will spread here?
Where do you find the map that pinpoints where the cases are? I've looked back on this thread and can't find it
Some people probably aren’t able to put a tenner aside.Not everyone is on great money though to afford to put 100k aside! Even 10k aside is a lot. Yes you are very lucky you have that amount of money!
My child returned from Italy 16 days ago.I'm shocked to hear posters saying that kids have returned from Italy and aren't self isolatingif my child returned from Italy I'd bloody well isolate them to protect the vulnerable around us if anything.
That's really good. My girls school haven't even upped handwashing/antibac gel. My eldests class are more prepared for an earthquake than this! We live in Devon, I'm not sure why they have practiced an earthquake alarm?!Which would be 2 weeks before the easter holidays start, so not unreasonable to think they may possibly, in the worst affected areas, close some of the schools.
My childs teacher this morning told me they have been given advice from PHE on the steps to take and when to take them. They've increased handwashing, installed extra soap dispensers and the cleaners are doing more thorough daily cleans. She said she couldnt divulge what else was going on behind the scenes but there was nothing to worry about.
Last week we were given log in details to several online learning facilities too, we were told this is for 'homework' but i wonder if this is what they are planning on using should the school have to close.
