IIRC Boris said somewhere during the below that it would be reviewed in three weeks:

You can leave the house for exercise, shopping or work but should stay at home beside that. I saw plenty of people going for runs and bike rides yesterday.
Thing is, though, the two instances I've seen of police intervention with people ignoring the rules is entertaining in their ability to demonstrate their right to exercise the powers given to them to disperse groups.
One video in London (of a park) shows police asking people politely to move on contentiously using "please," and a post on facebook by the police themselves stating something similar to "the officers felt it required to tip the BBQ over and tell people to go home after they refused and argued their right to enjoy a BBQ in the sunshine."
As for fines, I've seen no legislation or number placed on those ignoring the advice of Boris. ____________________ The do it all, T̶h̶e̶ ̶b̶r̶o̶k̶e̶n̶ ̶o̶n̶e̶,̶ ̶T̶h̶e̶ ̶b̶i̶g̶ ̶l̶u̶m̶p̶,̶ ̶C̶h̶o̶n̶g̶ ̶N̶o̶o̶d̶l̶e̶ |

Is it 14 days (20 adjusting for stupid) ? Or longer? Have any politicians said how long?
I'm not at home so everything is from t' Internet. |
Ah, t'tnterne'.
Looking at easily available information [ https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ ], China's experience indicates that it might be longer. In Wuhan, for instance, their "lockdown" started on 23rd Jan, and might be lifted about two weeks from now, which will be about 11 weeks.
If it's the same for us, that takes us well into June.
However, we have not taken the steps to control the spread of this virus that China has. It's possible that social and technical factors will reduce the time, but who knows.
My guess is that it will be at least 8 weeks, and then only IF people start taking proper notice of the lockdown, and IF there's suitable enforcement. |

I sort of see something, but it isn't nice. That is, the death rate from Covid-19 is radically different from about 4 weeks ago.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/uk/
The "Outcome of Cases" graph suggests a very much higher mortality outcome from the same disease than when it just affected a very few people some weeks ago. A possible cause of this could be the unavailability of medicines (vasodilators?) and respirators due to an acute shortage of these things around the country. As it's a respiratory infection, priority number one is to be able to breathe, so you have enough time to recover from the virus by waiting. |

Whatever happens, China needs to be held accountable for the year it's stolen from the planet and the financial harm it's down to the world.
Whether you believe this came from their eating habits, an accidental leak or a planned bio war, they are wholly responsible and something needs to be done to stop them wiping out the human race.
They were very well prepared for this, had tens of thousands of temporary hospitals waiting, ready to go, with staff and equipment, their mortality rate is 40 times smaller than that of Italy so far and this will increase.
Financially they are already starting to recover, as the West is still heading down to rock bottom and only just starting that journey. The cash rich China is already buying up Western stocks and will continue as the markets drop like a stone.
When we come out of this, I fully expect China to have made severe inroads to US world dominance, if not overtaken it as the new world super power.
It may be coincidence from eating bat soup, or it may have been planned, but either way, the only long term beneficiary of this will be China.
This has panned out exactly as it would if a biological weapon was released on a World with international travel. Everyone gets it, but the one who knew it was coming is forewarned and fore planned. It's also possible to engineer this to mutate and get worse as it spreads.
Proportionately, 40 times less mortality and infection than Italy and Italy is still in mid pandemic. Something stinks here.
Even if you refuse to believe this was planned and was just an accident, I'd like to see what China plans on changing to stop this happening again. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 4 years, 30 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
