Jeremy Hunt looks absolutely terrified

[MidsummerMeadow]

Just watched this and I’m even more concerned now. FFS.

It's not his job any longer, is it?

Agree. The whole of C4 news was terrifying. Unlike me, DH has been v relaxed about Corona but after Hunt's segment he announced that our kids wouldn't be going to school from tomorrow.

He... does.

It was awful, lots of the people in charge seem to be sounding warnings.

Or maybe he's just hoping BJ has got it wrong.........

Him and Stewart are playing political games. Maybe they do genuinely believe the govt are wrong but I suspect they are also trying to further there political careers.

He did want to be PM you know........

*their

Nicola sturgeon was pretty wobbly earlier abd while I don’t agree with much of her politics she’s a polished public speaker abd usually shows conviction. I just felt nerves today.

I don’t know much about politics @Random18 but I think he looked and sounded pretty genuine there.

RJ but she is agreeing with BJ at the moment. Labour too.

Of course she's worried. We all are.

"I'd like to see the modelling that really says that people are going to tire of social distancing in a national emergency of this nature."

Jeremy Hunt

Me too, Jeremy, me too.

Never thought I'd say it, but I agree with Jeremy Hunt.

Herd immunity for Covid can surely only be achieved by killing huge numbers of people ?
I prefer the attitude of China, Hong Kong and Singapore, to actually try and stop this virus in its tracks.

He's not very good at maths - 5% of 5% of our population isn't 400,000.....that would make our population 160 million

He always looks like that.

Oh wait, he said 150,000, nvm - it's late and I'm tired..

God, he does look scared, doesn't he

Following the news about the Arsenal head coach, the entire first team and coaching staff are self-isolating.

^Sorry, wrong thread re Arsenal.

That would be the botox

I feel we should stop waiting for the government to mandate on school closures, mass public gatherings and 'social distancing' and take the initiative ourselves.
Self isolate if you can, don't go to the pub, take the kids out of school and don't visit the immune compromised or elderly. Stay at home, check your neighbours have enough food and share with them if you can.

Maybe he's been reading the worried about coronavirus thread on here. I look like that after I have been reading it.

UK pop is 66 m. 5 percent = 3.3.m

Govt panicking because the NHS can't cope and is finally being shown up as shit compared to other countries.

Supersim - some of us work our arses off for the NHS - no country in the world has coped with this any better than another.

no one is prepared for it and the NHS is no better or worse than anywhere else.

Some of us on here are working on the front line right now and staring a 10% mortality rate in healthcare workers from corona.

So rather than call us all shit - support those people who are literally putting their lives on the line to save others rather than slagging them off.
Believe me no one is exagerrating it is shit.
