Next door DIL and grandkids still visiting!

[Netflixqueen]

Still coming and going as normal honestly can not believe it. Would report it but don't want to be a busy body!

And bluewaffle is as bad.
This attitude is what will keep numbers of infections rising.
Report them op.

Because the more contact the more it will spread; is this HARD?!

Is the kids parents key workers?

I'll just add I have a good reason to be annoyed by lockdown ignoring people.

My dad is dying. He's only just been diagnosed and he's declined extremely fast. I've been able to see him once. It's very possible I won't get to see him alive ever again if lockdown goes on longer than necessary. Those flouting the rules are increasing chances of lockdown needing to be dragged out longer and with tougher rules.

How will the DIL or the grandchildren actually put you at risk though?

How do people still not get it?

The more people that catch the virus and need hospital treatment, the higher the strain on the NHS and the fewer the resources.

They're telling us to stay home for a reason - to save lives. It's not difficult.

It affects everyone you stupid stupid people. If one of them has the coronavirus and spreads it they could be taking up a bed that the nhs need for people that have been following the rules!

My neighbour is an elderly lady with a bad cough at the best of times. She’s nuts taking this risk, basically. It did gall on Mother’s Day when she had a big do with adult kids and grandchildren.

I honestly give up do people still not get it?

Very sorry to hear that quay
Clearly until they are personally affected some selfish, thick idiots are still doing what they want,

It is everyone's business.

50% of us are a-symptomatic, so we could potentially be killing those we come into contact with....that DIL, or her Grandkids could be signing your neighbours death warrant....and not just hers, but everyone she comes into contact with and the medical staff that could potentially need to nurse her.

Yes it is dangerous behaviour and yes it is all of our business.

Shocked at some people's attitude on here, some people just don't understand no matter how simply it's put to them.

I'm technically flouting the rules as I am still seeing my dad as we have to do the horses together as we have an injured one. However, we've made sure our households are entirely isolated, we both online shop and order things for eachother when needed, and I don't even leave the house bar with him so I don't really see how any risk goes further than from him to me? We have less contact with others than most people.

Not all cases are clear cut.

@bluewafflewithmayo

I've left my house twice in the last 22 days. Both times to shop for food. And I think I might have it. I've got lost of the symptoms and my 7 year old spiked a temperature this afternoon. We are now isolating for 14 days. But if we get worse and need treatment but cannot get a hospital bed because fuckwits like this (and you?) Are out visiting families and spreading it around then you should be bloody ashamed of yourself.

People are going to catch it. Even on lockdown because we need to shop, but those should be the only cases. But because people wont stay the fuck home and leave their families alone, they are spreading it more and more. They've done it despite the rules. They've done is despite the rise. They've done it despite the constant stream on information telling them that they could be killing g people.
Because of people like that, the NHS is overflowing so people like me might not get help. My child might not get help.

But we should be ashamed? No. When this is all over I hope you look back at your opinions and actions and feel shame.

I don't get what people don't get. Stay the feck home and that applies to anyone not going for a damn walk, a keyworker or essential shopping. Anything else you're selfish pondlife who isn't deserving of a bed. People saying mind your own, must be from the same category of 'it won't happen to me' the type that swans to the shops for a newspaper and a visit with Margaret from round the corner!!

Well if they carry on like that it won’t be an issue for long.

@Isadora2007 it's not about me as I said next doors son has been working with people with the virus who have been sent home from work. He's coming home every evening then the grandkids and her DIL are going around the house. Then she might pop out and do her food shopping and infect another 10 people got nothing to do with me.

We've all been told to stay at home only leave the house for food shopping or the pharmacy or work if we're key workers. What is so difficult to understand about that? Their is a reason why these rules have been put into place.

Thanks @Mrskeats.

I was on the phone to my dad later and he asked me to pass a message on to the woman when I next saw her. I told him I couldn't repeat that.
Then dad told me he had got bad (worse than usual) news from his consultant that day.

I'd report the fuckers without a second thought

Hoping your dad pulls through quay

It's an eye opener isn't? How many posters blithely admit they don't understand need for lock down:

''How will the DIL or the grandchildren actually put you at risk though? I dont really see how it directly affects anyone else.''

wouldnt put themselves out to uphold lockdown:

''Mind your own business''

or worse berate those who would:

Anyone using that report online function should be fucking ashamed.

:(

In this short thread, this little sample of people we've seen 3 like this. What can we take from that?

@Laiste yup terrifying you would think the death toll would be enough for people to stay in.

Cannot believe people saying this isn't OP's business?? Do they not understand how viruses work? It's not just themselves they are putting at risk, but the entire community. Presumably these posters also are flouting the rules in the mistaken belief it's only themselves they're risking? Truly staggering the level of ignorance even though we're surrounded by info about this. I don't know anyone who is flouting rules thankfully but if I did, we wouldn't be friends afterwards! Social ostracism after this is all over is the least these people deserve.

Report for what?

Currently you don’t know their circumstances based on the little information you’ve provided here, are they key workers or not?

That’s makes a big difference.

Keyworkers or not. The words do not mix households are not difficult to understand. I work in a shop and am seriously fucked off with one regular customer who comes every morning for a paper, my colleague tried to tell her yesterday that she could get it delivered free by the printers, but no she enjoyed her exercise. I tried today but she said "i'm only bobbing in and out". Unfortunately I have to be careful about what I say, when all I really want to do is scream at her "YOU'RE RISKING MY LIFE YOU STUPID BITCH".

“next door has the grandkids round still pretty much everyday with daughter in law. They should stay at home! Her Partner is still working”

So what if the scenario is that the partner who works is also the one who shops at the supermarket for both families- he is working with people- risk of infection plus he is shopping- risk of infection. But his wife and kids remain at home and only mingle with mum and gran. Their risk is neither increased nor decreased by their visit to grans. Grans risk factor is affected by son in law but nothing else if she is staying in. If she stayed away from grandkids but needed to shop three times a week her risk could be higher...

It really isn’t as simple as staying at home lowers risk to all- on a wider level that works but when you begin to look at individual level it just isn’t as simple. For some people, bending the rules to visit older relatives actually saves those relatives from going out so is reducing their risk. And not increasing anyone else’s.

Of course it makes a difference

If they are key workers and needing childcare from the grandparents then it’s needs must.... mixing households if your a key worker is simply not always avoidable.

I know drs, nurses, supermarkets employees, delivery drivers etc.. all haven’t got childcare and are looking at family to enable them to deliver essential services, they cannot do their job if family could help with childminding.

Some of these parents/children are also in vulnerable groups etc... and aren’t allowed to sent their children to school as their role is not recognised by their council as essential.

Bloody hell, in an ideal world everyone would mix, however we don’t live in a ideal world and people still have bills to pay and put food on the table.
