How can the UK gov or anyone read this and not put the UK on lockdown?

[UnderReview]

The NHS won't. and shouldn't have to, cope with this...

Travel should have been stopped. Borders closed. People put in to lockdown.

@ThrowingGoodAfterBad totally agree with your point on page 2

I'm not sure I'd trust our Police not to get physical if rule by government was needed.
I think most would have to comply or be imprisoned like in Italy.

You'd have to stay with them if there was nobody else, most people will catch it and be off work at some stage anyway.

People aren't being imprisoned in italy stop reading the headlines read the articles.

You do realise that in Italy people.are still going to work,public transport is still running, shops still open, bars and restaurants still open, the lockdown is more about stopping people leaving regions.

Most people dieing in in Italy have underlying health conditions and aged on average 80 which isn't good, but hardly surprising.

I was just deleting old discussions from my watching list and came across this one. What a change since then!
