Coronavirus...post your thoughts here...

Yeah, nobody should be sharing the masks. That's just asking for everyone to get sick.

They would be better off sticking the doctors and nurses in biohazard suits and then they won't need masks. At the end of the day they have a disinfectant shower and take the suit off.

My aunts hospital is so low on masks that they are making nurses take turns with masks, not even sanitizing them first. The nurses and doctors are not allowed to bring their own masks for some dumb reason.

This is the stupidest thing ever, sharing the same mask? ewww

I dont know! You cant exactly put off labor..

Home birth not ideal but doable AFAIK.

You won't catch me having a baby, it looks quite painful

Get use to it, I reckon it will be at least 3 months before it's safe to gather in crowds again. Probably a lot longer.

If you're in the mountains and don't have close neighbours, you can go outside and spend time in the garden.

Think of all those poor people in Croatia who were told to remain outdoors, but still maintain social distancing, following the earthquake at the weekend

It was positively dead at work on Saturday, so dead we cut 50% of the shifts and it was just me in kitchen for most of the day. THAT didn't go well

Our temps are now in the 80’s and going to hit 90 this week. Unusually warm for even Texas for this time of year. I’ll welcome it now.

Park your cars out in the sun when you get back from shopping to kill any viruses in the vehicle.

Coronavirus: Tube drivers 'furious' at crowded carriages


You see this is dumb, the government has said to abort non-essential travel, however, going to work IS essential travel! So why have they reduded the tube service?

 

[Colin_T]

*&^%in idiots in government. That's just stupid. Save money by cramming more people onto the trains but you have to pay more to treat them when they are sick.

They should be adding more carriages so passengers have more space. Put signs up saying 1 person for every 2 seats.

 

[Retired Viking]

They are talking about shutting down everything but essential services and only allowing people to travel for food and medication or see the doctor.

 

[snailaquarium]

The UK is now on lockdown. I am however still confused as to whether I can still go to work when I come out of self isolations. I wish those idiots who pratted about going to the beach and park at the weekend didn't
