How many people do you think would get C19? How many 'extra' people would also die because all the 'services' were dealing with C19?

Except there are people dying who don't have 'under-lying conditions'. Is the only way to find out to 'carry on'?

I think that seems likely too. It's just the 'not knowing' how long your sentence is that makes things harder.

So why are things quite some distance in the future being cancelled? When do you think we'll get out?

Nah. There was a piece on BBC website about some testing done that reckons it's pretty 'fly-away' all that vapour being sneezed or coughed out...

So NOW is the opportunity to get through to the idiots just how important a well-funded NHS really is.

That's just the ones they've 'caught'. I liked the shisha party. https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/624/cpsprodpb/17B9F/production/_111438179_euc-zrmxqaiqn8h.jpg

Yeah and I've already seen that comment as a rubbish retort.

Party town!

See that's what really annoying - it is NOT a case of for us or against us. The old-style adversarial politics. But you keep telling yourself that you'll convince people of your argument by insulting them.

It's not quite the same thing, but go ahead with your thinking!

In what way could they have done things differently that would have 'worked' - it's just more politicking by the newspaper and the tweeter.

Did you see the piece on the BBC website (so obvs it will be somewhat right of centre) about a single 'super spreader' in India who died of C19, it has lead to 40,000 being quarantined. Now I might or might not be believing everything BoJo says. But what is the option? Do as I want? Everyone do as they want? No, we act as a single society and do as we are told. What we are being told to do changes but that is the nature of the beast. The time for looking back is (no surprise) as we get things under control!

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-52079922 In the letter being sent to 30 million households at an anticipated cost of £5.8m, Mr Johnson writes: "From the start, we have sought to put in the right measures at the right time. "We will not hesitate to go further if that is what the scientific and medical advice tells us we must do."

We didn't. That's the point. Things have changed as the data/evidence appears to change. Because we didn't 'know exactly what was coming'. Nor do we still. What is so difficult to understand.
