The charity my brother works for support homeless young people. Many of them live in shared housing. The staff at those sites have been told to bring in sleeping bags and luggage for two weeks in preparation for an outbreak as they will have to stay on site to care for the young people if there is a quarentine.I'm so confused how the country can go into lockdown....I'm a care worker and look after a man that needs 24 hour care. So how on earth could me and my colleagues all isolate ourselves.....who will support our client to get out of bed, personal care, cook and feed him? Surely alot of jobs are critical and must be done!? I'm type 1 diabetic too and the more I read this thread the more worried I become

The Guardian were claiming her to be the 8th, they have now removed the article.
I just read they’re planning to expand the number they can test a day from 1,500 to 10,000.
ETA Coronavirus: Biggest daily rise as UK cases reach 456 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51839106
I think they’re still saying 6 with two having died abroad.
i can’t see anything happening in terms of lockdown at the moment, it’s frustrating because it seems like we’re all sitting ducks waiting to be infected severely before action is taken and that’s the worrying bit of it all isn’t it. There were murmurs of my university shutting last week, I have lecturers rushing us through our coursework guidelines (due early next week) in case of closure, but on the other hand the head says they’re following whatever the government says, and to wash hands and self isolate if ill 
...i’ve got a very interesting advert below this which is offering me (all at the same time):
- cumin seed oil
- lollipops
- Vaseline
- bronzer
- aveeno restorative night cream
- muscle serum
- bad breath spray
cant help but think that’s not the greatest selection of stuff to keep in stock... also i am apparently a wizened hag with bad breath and no muscles!

Brill thank you. My fil is questioning my source

So they are going from 1,500 to 10,000 people they are testing a day ? Are they going to change the criteria
I hate this feeling that life is on hold and no one knows what's happening. I know it could be worse, but still.
Interestingly that photo looks photoshopped af glad it’s come from an official source
glad it’s come from an official source
I saw this, this morning and thought it was worrying. The "source" is in a language i can't read so i dont know the details but this makes it sound like it was contracted in the UK. And she just so happened to come into contact with one of the few hundred people that are confirmed to have it. I think not. The government needs to pull its finger out its ass and increase the testing.
ahhh you may be onto something there my love, yeah, and I can use the bronzer to make it look like I’ve been out in the sun!
! Lollies and cumin for dinner, as for the Vaseline hmmmmHopefully. I doubt that many people have knowingly come into contact..
I’m not Gona lie I’m shitting myself so many people saying don’t worry it’s just like the flu 
but it’s making my anxiety so bad. I work in a super market. So I’m convinced with the amount of people coming in & out daily i feel like I’m at such a risk! So if the country goes on lock down what does that mean exactly? Sorry if I sound stupid

So if the country goes on lock down what does that mean exactly? Sorry if I sound stupid I don’t 100 percent know but from Italy it looks like it’s all non essential travel. Distancing from people. Restaurants are still open but tables a metre apart. A journalist was saying she can still travel you just have to prove you need to travel for work. Some shops one in one out policy. I think it’s essentially stay in unless you absolutely need to go out and if you do then keep your distance from people. I can imagine some people here though Won’t care. Restaurants open til 6pm in Italy. So for example I might take my children on a bike ride off the beaten track near here to get them out but I wouldn’t go to a play centreI’m not Gona lie I’m shitting myself so many people saying don’t worry it’s just like the flu
So we had a meeting our trust today and we will have maximum 80 beds for corona patients. (80 less for non corona patients may I add). Roughly 1 bed per 3000 people in our catchment area. tit is expected to hit the fan in the next 2-3 weeks. Good luck everyone lol
I've been into my town today and it was quiet compared to normal.im so angry I must of seen at least 3 people spit on the pavement its disgusting.my daughter told me not to say anything as I think she could see how angry I was
I wonder how that would work for my mum. She works as a carer but only the hours my little sister is at school/after school club. She couldn't leave a 14 year old at home for 2 weeks.
