Has anything I should know about happened since yesterday?

This article mentions what caused the ransacking on Sunday morning.

Iran have released about 54000 prisoners due to the virus, including Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe. They expect the temporary releases to be about 2 weeks long.

Is it me or does BoJo look very uncomfortable with those medical officers in th briefings press conferences?

what you mean all the innocent people that there oppressive regime has put in prison for wanting to live in a free county and able to make there own choices, to want free elections, to not have religious leaders making there choices for them and having to do as told with out any choice, i really think you need to know whats going on in a county before saying stuff like that, they googling iran human rights violations you may find it eye opening,

Babelover I’ve lost count now of the number of times you have made posts hoping people will die horrible deaths. You really are a despicable human being.

Went to the local mini-mart today for some stuff, instead of the supermarket.

Bit more expensive but they had most of the usual stuff (including bog roll) and there were only four people in

So here's your virus survival tip for today - support your local independent retailer

I swould agree, as some of them may not even survive this pandemic

To an extent I would say we are slowly moving into som kind of lockdown phase without BoJo actually enforcing it. Our biggest problem will be is that once we come out of that lockdown there is every possibility the virus could have mutated into something else that could re - infect us, as many medical experts are worried that even if we build any natural immunity to it, they have no real answer as to how long it actually lasts in the system, so there is probably possibility any new form of the virus could re - infect and kill that immunity and we would back to square one. It is also entirely possible that any vaccine could possibly destroy any natural immunity we may build up. I do feel and worry that this virus could develop a 'super bug' type defence against antibiotics or even any vaccine very rapidly, thus the war against it would go on for a very long time.

nice to see this even though some of the recommendations in it is stuff we already know ; -

Two things are on my mind at the moment ;-

1) We have seen on the news in other countries how tests are being carried out in public, and wonder why we have not adapted the same policy and where should we get tested? I hve heard that GP's can't even get tested either!!

2) If gatherings at funerals are not allowed where are they burying the dead and are loved ones informed where they are buried?
