Coronavirus meme/panic/fear mongering general thread

Apparently the guidelines have just been changed. We're having a home visit from the GP who just told my wife this on the phone.

Oh my days.

So the GP turned up at the house, fully decked up in a mask, apron and gloves. Two school kids walking past were agog.

He laughed when he got to the door and apologised for looking ridiculous, said it was the first time he'd been asked to do this.

After examining wifey she now has antibiotics and steroids on the way. He acknowledged that 111 and GP surgery are at odds on the process with both referring each other to the other.

He's such an amazing doctor and full credit to him, the surgery and 111 for getting their shit together (eventually) and coming to see us in the space of 3 hours. Sorry to all the people in the surgery who've had to wait whilst he took time out

My advice is that anyone with an existing cough that they are worried about condition should get it seen to sooner rather than later.

I'm a bit emotional now.

Plenty of panic at my workplace this week.

Example : One mother is now convinced that all the Swansea schools, and possibly all Welsh schools, will close for two weeks leading up to Easter (followed by a third further week closed obvs, in the week following Easter Monday).

Source?
"One of the teachers" told "her friend's mother" -- and at a different school .... ;)

A genuine possibility is that more staff where we work (5,000 employees) may have it arranged for them to work at home ...... let me have a new and phat-quality 'work' laptop and I'd be WELL up for that! :D :p
No certainty yet on that one but we'll see .... it is a Government (Civil Service) department after all ....
