It all feels like too little too late... our number of dead is rising at near the same as Italy two weeks ago.
No daily briefing from Team Boris today. But an address to the nation later. My money is on a lockdown (Shirley? Been on the cards for a while)
Meanwhile in our road - where 3/10 houses have/are being affected tales are coming out. Those who started with ‘like a cold’ are now saying ‘never felt so tired’, the 35 yo man training to run a marathon (upnto 20k so far) described it as having 3 days where someone heavy was sitting on his chest (he’s now knackered still taking the dog for a potter)... also one with mild symptoms but no taste/smell (which is also a common one it appears). What’s VERY noticeable from the houses in quarantine (we’re all terraces) are how little noise or activity there is. None of the normal waving out the window - or seeing people being about. They’re all sleeping lots and really tired.
It's alarming that you, me and Duncan have all been poorly so that's a pretty high % of UKB'ers in London.
Guardian: Should someone behave differently if they think, but don’t know for certain, that they have already had it?Buchholz: We all have to be role models. If we’re all in it together, we all should be doing social distancing.Hillman: Since there’s no real way to know at this point who might have had it, unless you’re symptomatic, you get a swab and are definitively diagnosed with it, I would just act as if you hadn’t had it. Keep doing all of those things that we all should be doing at this point: social distancing and hand hygiene.
