To be annoyed at my sister and Dad

[Pondlife87]

I was talking with my sister earlier and telling her that someone we both knew was planning on coming to visit her Mum this weekend and then go home again. I was saying how wrong it way and she said 'well I have been to see Dad a few times'.
Apparently she went to drop off a load of stuff to put in his attic, then went to borrow the jet washer, then again to drop it off again, then again to go and deliver some weed killer she bought for him. I said to her she was wrong to do that and she said 'we kept 2 metres apart and just chatted out of the car window'. They were chatting for an hour or so each time. Am I right in thinking you can spread the virus in 15 minutes of standing 2 metres apart?
Then she said 'it's the same as going food shopping'. Which is an argument that frustrates me immensely as i don't get how people don't understand the difference between something being essential or not.
Am i wrong to be incredibly disappointed in them both? I really thought better of them.

Just to add as well, my Step Mum who lives with my Dad is immuno- suppressed and classes as high risk.

Why aren’t people taking this seriously?? Oh my god!!!!

What a knobby thing to do!

Unbelievable

Ask her if she'll feel bad if he dies?

I can’t believe the number of people who are not taking this seriously tbh. It’s bloody ridiculous! What’s it going to take? Someone in their immediate family dying?!!

I went to an elderly relatives house today to drop off shopping for them. I put it in the hallway and walked away. They were at the window waving and spoke to me briefly. It was heart breaking seeing them like that locked in and unable to have visitors but it is better than the alternative of them being ill or dying.

Oh ffs. People are ridiculous. Doesn't she understand that her recklessness could kill your dad and SM? And countless others.

I've got someone on fbook who has #staythefuckhome and is banging on about self isolation.

Today she whinged about running out of onions for her corned beef hash so a friend said she'd jump in the car and pop some on the doorstep. Then she commented that she had no ingredients but really fancied making banana bread

Friend offers to again get in the car and make yet another non-essential journey. I despair at the idiots

Ah but @crustycrab - didn't you know that's ok because your staythefuckhome friend didn't actually leave her home, so she isn't the problem ...

😳😳😳

@minisoksmakehardwork 😂 the world has gone bloody mad

If your Stepmum has to sheild, then she shouldn't really go into the house. But they may have taken precautions.

But if she followed the advice eg entering a room alone, maintain distance then it was fine.

Those questions was asked to a Doctor and virologist last night and anyone outside of the sheilding group can catch up, as long as social distancing is adopted.

They are now saying that you can sit at the other end of the path and speak to each other.

"Am I right in thinking you can spread the virus in 15 minutes of standing 2 metres apart?"

Where did that come from? That wasn't what was said in the questions and answers bit on the BBC last night.
