People won't get fatigued. When they see people dying all around them and hospitals in make shift schools.

Yup.

That think they know better. I’m fatigued by being led by donkeys

He is going to say later that parents should not take kids out of school.

Fuck that.

So we're doing nothing.
Except I assume testing less people as those with a cough or fever are just to self isolate on the assumption they have it?

Fucking ridiculous.

The people who need to understand won't be listening to you Chris, because they 🤔 this is stupid and everyone is making a huge fuss

Oh and we are back to hand washing.
Are hey really trying to convince us Italians, Germans and the rest who have more cases than us don't wash their hands? It's utter crap at this point. All those with it are dirty soap dodgers then? Is that what we are meant to swallow? Pull the other one.

Cough, continuous and new

Temperature 37.8

Stay at home for 7 days.

Huge political perils facing Boris

Christ, I need to slow down. I could have sworn that said 'huge political penis'.

Just found out there is a case in my town... Fuck

Honestly nothing has changed at all !! Anyone who has been ill has been self isolating or taking caution. This government seems to be lagging behind us !

... if you stay at home, there will be less bodies cluttering up hospital corridors

@defthand people fron Kensington and Chelsea are probably all rich and caught it on their skiing holidays and brought it back with them.

Why the fuck are we not stopping unnecessary large events? Why at this point would that not be a good idea????

I’m off to wash my hands. Sick of watching the three wise white men saying nothing.

Who is actually going to stay off work because of a cough? How fucking ridiculous.

The blue dots are us. The red dots are Italy 10 days ago. Where are they getting 4 weeks from? It's an out and out lie.

So my cough started last night. Is that new? Or does it only count from tomorrrow? Fucks sake.

Well, I’d check temp gladly if I could source a fucking thermometer below £150

And don’t tell us. We’re not bothered.

When you’re really ill, call us - we’re not coming for you.

Not infectious after 7 days? Has anyone seen evidence to support that?

However people with minor symptoms can spread widely- that's an important point to remember, IMO.

So they’re just giving up on the testing so they can surpress how bad this gets

To all the people asking if they should isolate because they have had a cough for 2 weeks, both The prime Minister and the experts emphasised that it applies to only NEW continuous coughs.

No more testing! How convenient!

Right you can call 111 when it' slife threatening... oh god

BJ: we are in the contain phase. Wash your hands

BJ: we are now in the delay phase. More people will die. Wash your hands.

What exactly has changed except the name of the phase and the fact that more people will die??
