Coronavirus

Been invited to a friends for drinks in his garden tomorrow ( I've declined the offer ) he says there is going to be half a dozen others there but they will be social distancing , is this not breaking the rules and risking a fine for everyone attending ??

Does the county of Durham offer a similar snitching service? Just wondering.

As dreadful as the situation is, a lot of Slackers are making the most out of this crisis.

Please expand.

I think he means a lot of buisness owners are happy to take furloughed payments for staff members
From Government , saves them dipping into personal savings/profits made for them by loyal staff.

Reading an article from the LRB from earlier this month, apparently the London school of hygiene and tropical medicine presented to government a model of how they anticipated coronavirus impacting on the UK -accounting for various interventions they could take to mitigate - as early as March 2nd. If you believe that Times story from last month, the government was being warned that a lockdown was needed sharpish as early as February 26th. We went into lockdown on March 23rd.

The scientists that the government is already trying to throw under the bus will push back further in the coming weeks and months.

[Celtient]

A true slacker makes the most out of any situation.

Johnson certainly is.

Until PM Questions yesterday, I don't think he'd been seen for a week.

Maybe got a new bit of skirt on the side? Or more likely he's bored with the job already as apparently normally happens once he's been in post for about 6 months.

Finland opened schools 14 May. There are already 6 CV19 outbreaks in schools

•Mattlidens 20 pupils & 2 staff
•Vantaa 18 pupils & 2 staff
•Mäntsälä 11 pupils & 1 staff
•Porvoo 17 pupils & 4 staff
•Itäkeskus Helsinki 1 pupil & 2 staff
•Kannelmäki 14 pupils & 4 staff

81 kids & 15 staff

We've already seen how the Tory Party don't learn from the strategies of other countries.

Johnson & Co. have already got the deaths of thousands of people on their hands. I guess they'll look upon it as potentially a few more that will just simply get lost within the UK's numbers.

Meanwhile, their brainwashed supporters will blame the left-wing teaching unions for trashing the economy.

Is your strategy just to find any story from anywhere around the world and use it to post a few more lines of rhetoric?

Here's a link to a news item about the school in Porvoo that you cite above.

https://www.helsinkitimes.fi/finland/ne ... virus.html

It says 17 pupils and 4 staff have entered quarantine after coming into contact with a student who tested positive but is otherwise well, in a school of over 500 pupils.

So, one person ill, others quaranteened. Same for some of the others that I looked up. Nobody died, nowhere near the 81 kids and 15 staff you mention got ill.

It is inevitable and guaranteed that when schools reopen there will be cases of covid-19. The situation has to be managed with the consent of all concerned.

Where have I said they'd got ill?

[NuneatonO's]

412 Coronavirus deaths in the UK in the last 24 hours. That's one death every 3.5 minutes.

Fear not, we should be able to increase that figure in a few days, when we open schools on Monday.

[Long slender neck]

Unlikely seeing as there's no additional risk to the under 45s.

[NuneatonO's]

Are all teachers under 45 then?

Been invited to a friends for drinks in his garden tomorrow ( I've declined the offer ) he says there is going to be half a dozen others there but they will be social distancing , is this not breaking the rules and risking a fine for everyone attending ??

https://www.met.police.uk/ro/report/ocr ... t-a-crime/

I would go, your not meeting in the street, house, park or inside any building, so keep your distance, let the police argue what the rules supposedly say, because it doesn't mentioned anything about gardens.

Is 412 an increase over recent days ?

[HeyO]

Frighteningly so, yes.

In the village as a whole their was a party in every street, no police came, no one complained, from 3:30pm to 8PM. No complaints anywhere from anybody to anybody

Think you may be slightly missing the point that it's not about if anyone complains but whether the virus is passed on.

There is always an increase after the weekend. For some reason not all deaths are recorded, which is also why the number drops for a few days.

[ComeOnYouOs]

Ive been reading scary stuff about reducing the social distance to one metre.
Absolutely asking for trouble. The second wave is going to hit us so hard in July/August/September

[Mistadobalina]

1m would put us in line with most other countries, the 2m requirement makes us an outlier. There's plenty to be concerned about but I wouldn't worry about that one!

[Story of O]

The WHO advice is 1 metre. I know Denmark do 1.5 metres.

[Smendrick Feaselberg]

Very few people around Enfield are adhering to the two metre rule anyway. No doubt the same in other areas.
