I'm not convinced we will get a vaccine. We don't have a vaccine for the common cold which is also a coronavirus. Also, we're still early on in learning about Covid that, why are we assuming that once we've had it we're immune from getting it again?

Post #37 sounds like moaning to me

Saying the people moaning because they've had to spend 3 weeks in doors. Moaning because you're not allowed to go to the pub. Maybe, just maybe if people such as yourselves took this as seriously as you should of back in Feb we wouldn't be in this mess.

If that's what it takes, then yes. We've got nobody to blame here but ourselves and government. We should of been putting pressure on the government to act in Jan/Feb. Because we didn't, this is the price we have pay to save the lives of millions of people. People moaning about the state the...

1) We isolate as long as we need to save £500k+ lives in the UK and 10s of millions worldwide Is the correct answer. People need to make these sacrifices and stop moaning how bored they are. It's tough.

This. Herd immunity in the form of atleast 60% of the population being infected and the amount of deaths that brings is totally unacceptable. Should not even be a suggestion. If people thought that 900 deaths per day currently is bad, the herd immunity idea would be much more disastrous. This...

Yeah, are you not able to see that through the lack of preparation and introduction of late measures?

Anyone able to explain why, not just in the UK, but in Italy and Spain after lockdown (semi lockdown in UK) we're still seeing 5000 confirmed cases per day? We are old incubation period is up to 14 days. We've been in 'lockdown' for longer than that.

The issue for me isn't that the government didn't act quick enough, it is that they just didn't act at all. It was dumb to ignore what was going on in China. It was criminal to ignore what was going on in Italy, on our door step.

And then those who were infected by those attending those events. Our government have (and continue to do so) really let us down. An absolute disgrace. Dominic Cummings convinced Boris that herd immunity was the way to go? If that's the case he needs to be held accountable for this Monumental...

There's been mixed reports about incubation period, I've seen 24 days mentioned before now. The government said today that it won't be stopping international travel as "the science says" that it doesn't stop the spread of the virus, what a load of shit, erm yes it does. If there really is...

Doesn't sound like you were breaking any rules, so I'm not suggesting you end up in jail. And also I said it should be criminal records for first offence and jail for breaking it a second time. If people are dumb enough to break them, then that's all they deserve imo

It's time for the government to stop calling these measures 'guidelines' and to start calling them 'rules' and 'the law'. Hit those who break them with criminal records, and those who break them more then once a prison sentence. These careless idiots have had enough chances, so FACK them. Throw...

Looking back at those posts brings back awful anxiety. The biggest reason I felt I was so anxious was because nobody was taking the potential (at that time) devastation this virus could cause remotely seriously. Currently, it's not too bad as I braced myself for this situation. Maybe I got...

True, but it is totally unacceptable to put people at risk of a disease that in 15-20% of symptomatic cases results in severe disease. I don't fancy my chances against this, and frankly couldn't give a toss about the economy over my life

"Food manufacturer" - big debate amongst employees weather we are not. The company manufactures supplements. Work is said to be quiet and they've furloughed about 10 employees. Hoping they see sense not to risk anymore lives and furlough all of us,but I suspect if that was going to happen, it...

This is what I'm hoping, I'm due back to work tomorrow!

I'm not just blaming China. I blame our Govt as much as China and the corrupt WHO.

Tragic. So desperately sad.
