Coronavirus meme/panic/fear mongering general thread

[QueenOfGoths]

My new game* is watching the TV adverts and saying, "nope" to every one that has now become a waste of money (e.g. cruise holidays, people sharing a pizza and everything else that involves groups of people all in close contact with each other).

*yes, I'm already reduced to this

Until Monday the tannoy at work would occasionally explode with "Planning your holiday abroad? Come to us for preferential foreign currency rates!"

It's now been discontinued!

It'd better not interrupt the gin supply.

Just had this video shared on whatsapp, but I don't know how to share it here, it starts with Postcode Lottery song -

"Someone's knocking on the door, somebody's ringing the bell..."

The door slightly opens, and this guy yells, "Fuck off, you're self-isolating.'"

there'll be four or five tables of people in different corners of the pub. our table would all be seeing each other anyway (and will all be symptomless, as i trust the others will be). The whole place will be less crowded than the supermarket I just pointlessly walked around, or the workplace mrsb has spent all day in. and the pub will need some trade if it isn't to be completely fucked.

yep just crack on, what’s more important than a pint of real ale and a chance, for once to dominate the pub quiz.
It will be a lazy victory as anyone with an IQ higher than a saveloy and with a modicum of social conscience will be at fucking home

It's the same photo (that and the mirror reversal so cars on left) that has been doing rounds on twitter, fb and whatsapp since last night, monty panesar tweeted it. If you reverse google search it you don't get the original hit (so presumably taken from a video or something) but loads of links to press articles (daily mail, buzzfeed etc) from yesterday going 'load of shit'
