General Coronavirus (COVID-19) chat

Yup.

I am pretty placid at the moment but cunts like this deserve it. The government should be fining him/them substantial sums and confiscating the caravan to auction.

They don't have the power to fine him or confiscate the caravan and auction it.

However the Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 1984 enables them to detain him indefinitely and destroy the caravan. :oldthumbsup:
 
FFS the fucking communication is shit. There's nothing there that says it applies in my case. Two people in that household are out working every day, that's two people risking infection being brought into the house. It's so stressful!

Not having a go at you, bimble obviously!

People at risk COPD definitely will be receiving a letter from GP soon, this will provide leverage to leave work i think

alll too late i reckon.

Shame to waste something that could be sold and the funds used for good causes. However failing that I would like to see it destroyed and him detained/fined/embarrassed publicly.
 
People like this you mean?

My parents live in the forest of dean. They've noticed an influx of caravans and campervans and not all are using the campsites some are just pitching up in laybys or forest car parks. The locals (foresters) are livid and they're not a mild mannered bunch when push comes to shove. My parents are genuinely worried about the safety of these people in caravans or at least the safety of their vehicles.

They've already had an incident where a head teacher has been vilified (including death threats) because he continued with a school ski trip to Italy just as it was all beginning to kick off down there. They had to come back early and they reckon the head has had to go into hiding because of the reaction.

As soon the the first cases start arriving someone's going to get the blame and I wouldn't want to be in a caravan in a unlit layby.
 
It's not bringing the best out in people, is it. French friend told me that the reaction of many Paris bourgeois on hearing of the imminent lockdown was to pack a case and drive out to the holiday home in Brittany. Bretons not impressed.

I wonder if that's the case actually. There are 3 million estimated UK with copd according to NICE. According to asthma.org, there are 5.4 million asthmatics in UK.
There will apparently be 1.5 million texts/letters going out, so the math doesn't add up.
I think the key word in the statement is 'severe' respiratory disease, so things like cystic fibrosis, lung cancer, and I suppose emphysema, as well as the other conditions - cancer patients, immunosuppressives, etc
 
There are loads of these on social media so won't waste this thread with more but this one in Hull was chilling:



People are cunts. Supermarkets should be doing a lot more to manage this and protect staff/public. Government have to act because the general public and weathly private sector supermarkets can't/won't.



Death magnets, hose them

I have been advised to S/I, M.E, Diabetes.
 
A large car boot sale has gone ahead in Derbyshire and the police have posted about the Bank Holiday-esque crowds in Matlock Bath. Idiots!!

The letters being issued to doctors are on this page, and outline what conditions are defined as extremely vulnerable and will be contacted.

It's confusing, I have asthma, albeit controlled, but work self employed in health care with poor protective equipment, so ideally I should seif isolate, but can't.
Anyway, the statement yesterday about 1.5 million severely ill people who need to self isolate for 3 months - we'll need to see who gets that letter or text next week.
 
Draft of my leaflet to the nearest streets to me (three dozen houses)

Do I just sound like a serial killer/fraudster?

Please comment....

Hmm... no actual draft attached :(

How do I attach a Word doc / PDF?

Edited to add (again):

Oh - seems to have worked now

Its pleading with people to actually follow the advice, with the implicit, and to an extent in this speech explicit, threat that they will ban more stuff if people dont do their bit.

Anyone who's worked in education knows that appealing to large groups of people to do the right thing and follow advice because it makes sense knows how well that works.
 
We are in an "act up" situation akin to the AIDS epidemic. Need to also prepare for how they intend to shaft us once this has blown over. We need to have a 1945 plan in action so something decent can come out of their ineptitude.

Not enough spelling mistakes for a fraudster and most serial killers have easier ways to get victims. I reckon it's great. Nice one!

2m separation posters are the start so we can show we are on the side of public health over commerce. Need to make it clear a lock down is a total infringement. The financial crisis of 2008 was paid for by 10 years of austerity. This one will not be paid for by yet another debt burden we are told we are responsible for. Tesco are already raising tampon prices by 30% and claiming it is to prevent over stocking!

Seems good to me. Only thing I would say is put your first name on. But maybe you've thought about it and don't want to.
