Yes weeks of working with plane loads of people.

Why are public health England so much more relaxed about it than China and Italy ?

Has it been said that the BA staff are cabin crew?

For those surprised by Germany’s low number of new cases today - it has seemed to me over recent days that their updates were piecemeal, not necessarily consolidated into a daily total. So there may be more to come.

@LarkDescending Yes it is confirmed they are cabin crew

Guardian says it's cabin crew......

The most basic logic says that having up to 300 people in a metal tube for several hours at a time with air recycling systems and a virus in circulation in many countries creates a high risk environment. Sigh.

UK numbers late again?!

I bet they are.

Are the UK numbers going to be later again today? And when will we know which towns etc?

I am hoping they tell us towns.

They were bagage handlers

I wouldn’t panic about the cabin crew yet. I don’t think there have been any confirmed cases k FB transmission on planes.

Daily Fail says they were baggage handlers.

163 in UK.

163, 1 death.

I reckon it will be 4pm for numbers as they will need to add graphics or some such to the website to show the towns.

Sorry my mistake, ignore my earlier post! BA baggage handlers, Thanks for making me look a twat, at The Guardian.

163. Jesus

LOL and I am WRONG

147

God that's a massive jump

Oh I’m getting 147 from another site

2nd UK death just reported

Wow higher than I was expecting

That’s as of 7am this morning.

www.gov.uk/guidance/coronavirus-covid-19-information-for-the-public 147 active I think? 163 is the total positive tests but some have recovereD?
