Prepping for a pandemic... 13

[FuckThisWind]

Sorry I couldn't find a new thread. If there is one already, I'll have this deleted.

Will get links etc brought over from last thread too.

So this is what he meant by the delay phase..?

wheresmy just pause your shout so mine can be heard too. We need to syncopate it. Ffs I hope he’s not right !

Maybe they’re timing it for when they assume people are home after work so they don’t hear LOCKDOWN and crash their cars in panic on the way home? You know, because we are all children that need infantilising like the politicians love to do...

The latest in the Non-Action Plan for Not Delaying:

Tomorrow - self isolate for 7 days if you have symptoms (FFS)

No overseas school trips

Pre-existing health conditions shouldn't take a cruise

So basically stay home for a week if you have a cough, no school trips and don’t go on a cruise if you’re old. Seriously? That’s it?

This government makes me sick

Cross post with Mojo

Update on BBC

All people with respiratory illness to self isolate for 7 days
All school trips abroad to be cancelled

Bit of a joke really!!

While we are waiting for bojo, perhaps my brethren preppers can tell me how to deal with DH who is insistent (due to working for a small family firm who will be economically tested to say the least) that he should continue to travel, attend exhibitions/shows and events, eat at restaurants, stay in hotels, multiple times every week. He is adamant he will continue. He’s my weak link and I’m really getting fed up. And no, he doesn’t have parents/siblings he can stay with instead. We have a child with chronic asthma, and I have respiratory issues (I had pneumonia twice and struggle) plus I’m depended on for my grandparents who are both frail, diabetic and Alzheimer’s)....

You've done fuck all BJ
Although Thankyou for correcting the flu brigade!

At least they're being transparent that there are a higher number of cases than confirmed.

Families will lose loved ones before their time.

It is more dangerous than the seasonal flu.

@wheresmymojo

Just saw that advice too. I want to scream. And cry.

BBC live

What! Don't call 111 , use the Internet ?

What a bloody shower of shite. So basically keep going... Keep spreading the virus... but keep washing your hands...

Fuck sake. If you think you’re ill, stay home, but don’t call 111, google it. What the fuck?

We are 4 weeks behind Italy ?

No school closure??? But can we make them stay home if they don’t want to go? flu like symptom anyone?

Ah the modern age of medicine...don’t go out and don’t bother the NHS, just google it! 👏
Another super reassuring statement from our wonderful PM!

4 weeks behind is a total Lie! I'm furious

So is england/wales/NI now the only place NOT taking any measures?

The delay has already started due to their measures? WHAT MEASURES?

Holy shit.

That's all I can say.

Telling people to stay at home if they feel sick and not to bother the nhs is a way of prepping the public for the everyone staying at home and the nhs can’t help you announcement?
