Tougher Measures Covid

[eve1974]

keen to hear :
1) if you believe tougher measures are needed lockdown wise.
2) what you believe these measures ought to include.

[bobbinwales]

Well judge if we ignore 2m just because theres no law then we deserve what overcomes from the virus

[Zacs-Master]

Ah, I'm sorry teacake. I must remember not to ask you to prove a point you've made to back up your claims. Silly me.

[bobbinwales]

^what ever comes

[teacake44]

12.57 Bobbinwhales, what we deserve is a government to act like a government, not an PM riding a bike for a PR stunt, just to try and calm a cock up by the police force.

[teacake44]

^^ and a cock up by government.

////////The fact is, the virus will spread. The only way to prevent that is to keep everybody remote from everybody else and we can’t. Giving sensible advice will persuade most people to comply/////

All very true, but the object of the above measures is to slow the RATE of spread in order that the NHS will not be overrun.
In other words all needy critical care patients will be treated.

[bobbinwales]

Ok teacake. If that's your take on it.
Had a think about my t& t question?

[Zacs-Master]

NJ doesn't believe the HNS is being overrun tho, Sqad. Or he didn't a few days ago.

[Zacs-Master]

'what we deserve is a government to act like a government'

What does that exactly mean, teacake?

[teacake44]

T&T question? You can't start blaming the public for failing to do this or that, when you're own government have more or less failed in everything they've done.

[Sqad]

Well Zac he isn't alone and there isn't much that we can do about it.

[teacake44]

Yes the hospitals are now getting to the point if not already not being able to cope, and its going to get worse. What hacks me off is I did travel five mile in my car to a river walk, at the beginning of this month I decided not to in case of an accident and having to go to hospital, so now only us for the shopping trip. Then I see this idiot Boris riding a bike in London.

'What hacks me off is I did travel five mile in my car to a river walk, at the beginning of this month I decided not to in case of an accident and having to go to hospital'

Did you go, or didn't you?

[Zacs-Master]

Boris is the PM, teacake, he has to carry on running the country. Even your quirky view of the situation must let you appreciate that, surely?

TC: "Listening to 3 scientists this week they all say its exploded due to there being no TTT and support. " - I'm doing my best here, can't be everywhere love!

I note that some people here are calling for a curfew, possibly starting at 7pm each evening.

I usually try to shop within the last hour at Morrison's (from 9pm to 10pm, or from 9.30pm to 10pm if I don't need too much) in order to go when the store is very quiet. (The Ipswich store is one of their bigger ones but there are still usually no more than 5 or 6 customers in there, including me, when I go shopping. I don't have any problem at all maintaining social distancing of at least FIVE metres, so I don't see myself or others as being at any significant level of risk).

If I'm not allowed out of my house after 7pm, I (and many others) will have to shop earlier in the day, meaning that supermarkets will then be more crowded, thus INCREASING the risks of infection to everyone.

So a 7pm curfew seems like a totally barmy idea to me!

[Zacs-Master]

And me, Chris. Many on here don't have the ability to think a problem through. Unfortunately they abuse freedom of speech and continually post complete unfounded cobblers.

[bobbinwales]

Have you got no actual examples then of where T&T is failing Teacake??? Your logic seems to be everything is the goverments fault when really we'er all in this together. By the way when you said "you're own goverment'' do you men the Welsh Goverment. I never voted for Borris and would vote for Keir now (or for Welsh self rule) but we got to support the goverment policy and do are bit for all are sakes

[teacake44]

Buenchico If its true, then this just follows all the rest of the fag packet ideas, no thought what so ever put into it. Plus it will create panic buying again.

Have we given up on Track and Trace?

I haven’t heard any results for months. Early results were very poor, and they stopped publicising them. Are the figures still too bad to reveal, or did they just give up on it?
