Northern Italy now on lockdown til April.

Northern Italy now on lockdown til April.

Northern Italy basically makes up most of the Italian economy. They really have mishandled the outbreak. They never identified the original source and cross community spread has now overwhelmed them. God bless them

They woudnt really need to identify the original source .

It would be kind of to hard considering the place would have been full of Chinese buisness people

Disoriented - am I also married to your missus?

The number of deaths in Italy rises by 133 to 366 in 1 day

The PM has put 16m people on lockdown with the threat of a fine or jail if they try to leave the quarantine zones.

Capitalism eh .

Chinas communism had the right idea
Lock everything down & restrict movement .

Plenty laughed on here at the draconian measure .

Seemed to be the right thing to do though.


Glad youre ok secret agent Thor,
We were going to start a search party at 7 a.m

Apparently, we can expect 30% to 50% of the population picking up this virus. 80% of those that get it will have minor symptoms. 10% could be hospitalised. Unsure at the moment, what percentage of the population will ultimately meet their maker.

No country in the world has a health system that is prepared or has the ability to deal with such an outbreak. Most world Governments are hoping that they don't experience all cases at once say over a three week period. I know they are in containment phase but with cross community cases becoming more widespread, this is looking pretty goddamn serious.

I didn't think much about it until I listened to some leading Doctors for infectious disease being interviewed about it this weekend. I know they don't want panic but now I would be concerned about those that are more vulnerable and susceptible to infections. It's only a matter of time that major events especially indoor events will be cancelled.

Just keep listening to the medical experts and not the politicians. Hopefully, you'll all be ok.

I know quite a few olds who may struggle if they got it. How many do you know?

I've been wondering about something. Boris reckons the majority of people who catch this virus will only have minor symptoms yet coronavirus is supposed to be worse that flu . Question , just how bad is "Mild ' for something that's worse than flu . ? Fully blown flu ?? Also I went down to my local Costcos this morning and took one look at the crowd and called it a day . The queue waiting to get in was unbelievable . Some people out there are in full blown panic mould . Apparently toilet rolls are in high demand . If this carry's on I'll have to start buying the Guardian.

Coronavirus is worse in the sense that there is currently no antidote to treat it nor vaccine to prevent it. The symptoms, by all accounts, seem to be much the same though (fever, cough, headache, tiredness and so on), so a mild case of coronavirus would seem to be pretty much the same as a mild dose of the flu.

[Long slender neck]

'Worse than flu' meaning its more likely to kill you than flu.

[Thor]

I see the cobra meeting today discussed closing all schools tomorrow. The logistical and care nightmare that would come out of the back of that would be huge.

Ok, hopefully that’s the case.
