Re: Coronavirus... thoughts ..

It does look as if a second wave might be coming as Johnson has said - the number of deaths have gone up again. I was hoping that lightning wouldn't strike twice, but six months onwards, I wouldn't bet on it.

Yep .... the feeling is there will be another complete lockdown apart from the flaming schools which will be kept open .. I’m doomed !!

We’ve just been in the local Home Bargain supermarket .. I’d estimate only 60% of customers ( no staff ) were wearing masks !!

We are close to lockdown in our town with an infection 4 times the National average and nearly as bad as the next town who have the WORST rate in the UK ..

I asked the first assistant we saw about all the non mask wearers he said they will only conform if they get fined ... I asked another assistant ten minutes later who said ‘ it’s up to the police to make them comply” ...

What is wrong with this damn country !!

I was taking a bit of exercise on Monday evening on my way to post some letters when I saw a local double decker bus come past, and I quickly glanced to the windows of the top deck and saw two passengers on board, and neither of them were wearing face masks. Just around the corner, a nurse was getting into her car to travel to her work at a local hospital, and not surprisingly, she was wearing a face mask as one might have expected.

Whilst I am here, I have just found out that the episode of Casualty which was postponed because the storyline was too similar to the coronavirus pandemic, will be on Saturday 26th September - I suppose that we can make our own comparisons as to how similar the storyline was to the real-life outbreak.

My opion it should have been a lot earlier,maybe the Welsh minister was waiting to see what happens don't know why.I mean people had to wear masks on public transport weeks ago.We will see what happens popped into Home Bargains yesterday all the staff were wearing them and the customers I saw were obeying the rules.

i went shopping on our local precinct on saturday .. My first time out shopping in about 5 months !!

Very strange at first hardly anyone was wearing masks and yet a few muhtest walk around the corner to another part of the same shopping centre we were met with virtually everyone wearing masks !!

We immediately put ours on .. Guess it was peer pressure .. .. Very strange though

Was in a small shop yesterday,narrow aisles, not easy to social distance,not one person apart from me was wearing a mask.In another shop a young guy comes in ,after talking to his mate outside(standing close together no masks)and starts coughing and spluttering all over the place.A lot of the non mask wearers seem to be guys in their twenties.

Re: Coronavirus... thoughts ..

The cases have gone up in the UK in the last few weeks with younger people catching the virus but not dying from it.I saw a picture of children wearing masks in a school in Scotland.See what happens in the next few weeks with the rest of schools opening
