bwfcfan5 Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Gove today has said we should expect to be in lockdown for a significant period. It’s right they set expectations. There is no obvious exit and people need to realise this is a long haul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It goes to regional on here, under statistics. Lombardy still by far the worst, 60% of deaths. I'm trying to get info for Lodi, a region of Lombardy that locked down early. I read a week ago that they've almost eradicated it, but I've not found the data yet, I've got some italian links It may be on. I'll post. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_coronavirus_pandemic_in_Italy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of June. Then relax some stuff in July then back into lockdown August or September as it spikes again. Unless a solution is found that will be our future until a vaccine is ready. Plus they are today talking about further tightening of restrictions which I can only assume will mean only essential workers can go to work.

Although, I agree - this place is much better without Escoburp. As for Snowball, haven't a clue - I guess he's one of those posters who you just scroll by.

But it’s upto the police to actually do something about it. Because they are impacted the same as us. Could turn ugly if they don’t with folk starting to self police.

But if too many do it just prolongs it. Needs hefty fines as a way to discourage people flouting the rules.

Good question from Marr to Gove and why we haven't tested as much as Germany, their death toll lower than ours and they have more cases. He half answer swerved the question of course, but our numbers are probably just as high, its just that we haven't tested. We keep hearing about game changers, but nothing. How is it that Germany and the US can carry out more testing, it's a fair question. Jonny Marr interviewing Gove. I am sorry I missed that.

Its great, real fire, let you take your own food in (café opposite brings food across) free jukebox with a mix of ska, new wave, rock etc and a mix of old punks, music and sports writers from the Guardian whose offices are nearby, music press, media buyers, tradesfolk and even that bloke from This Is England from Chorley drops in from time to time. If you are in London, its worthwhile dropping in as its not far from Euston https://londonist.com/pubs/pubs/pubs/king-charles-i Plus - ale is around the 3.80 mark which for central London is good.

Yeah, I saw someone posting on twitter about it being awful how there were only 6000 flights last week. And that’s 80% down. 6000. People moving all over the show then. Not good.
