So what?

the experts say the only way of gauging how we will have done v other countries will be to assess when we reach the end.

If you are to believe the scientists, then where we are now, against others who might measure it differently/worse, is of no current relevance.

the mrs set up this help group on facebook which now has her taking donations of food and clothes and divvying them up for folk who need them

Sturgeon prattling on again about how we need to stay locked down.

We are danger of the do gooding held and safety brigade taking this over.

This country needs to get back to work, in as safe a way as possible, but sensible, bold, people need to grab this.

288 deaths and new cases reducing despite opening tests up to more people..

 

Only the hospital admissions were tested a few weeks back, now it's open and cases are still falling..

 

Positives!

The testing centres are needed for when we open back up. The infrastructure is in place now!

My worry is that the media are pushing this agenda for opening schools.. It's a sure fire way to bump up cases..

i'm trying to make room on my drive for my caravan for when they do, because there is no way I can go back in the house with my Wife self isolating.

Seen an article that jobs are being posted for the etihad testing place, £17.50 ph to administer throat & nasal swabs

Schools need to be opened, should never have been closed.

How to entice Teachers out of the safety of their homes, though?

Precious mites seem to be on the news all the time giving reasons not to go back
