Coronavirus - is enough being done to contain it?

I'm wondering if they ever explored the idea of breaking up the contest into separate contests OR reducing the contest to the countries that have participated the most and juries from other nations voted on it, and then each winning song premiered on Youtube with public votes and the two scores added together would find the winner.

But still I think Graham Norton will be probably be relieved having not to travel (& disappointed at the same time!!) to commentate it. If they hadjust postponed until later in the year probably it would brighten up the Xmas telly a little better!!

I have seen maps that tracks cases county by county and currently in Hertfordshire (my county) we have 36 cases so far (not sure how many are positive though), so to take focus away from the other normal virus posts, I think it would be a good idea to bring other forum members up speed with known cases in our regions. If you know how many are positive do add the figure.

so I'll kick off with Hertfordshire = 36 cases

^ Hertfordshire has 50 mate.

If anyone wants to find out how many in their area the BBC have a tool to allow you to do it

^interesting reading especially the form bit. I know I did probably think that at one time maybe carrying our passports may be required I'm not so sure now.. I imagine that if we were to adopt it, I would imagine it is likely that kind of form here, would be one that was provided by your employer... we shall have to see. Now what happens on Mother's Day?

Schools to close on Friday

To put another perspective on it I'm wondering how long a "War" this is going to be when this enemy is one totally unseen by all of us, wherever we are, it definitely does feel now like a unprecedented wartime type scenario is about to play out.

seriously what the fuck my asda delivery came half of it was missing or substituted

no bread whatsoever but all my cake survived so let me eat cake lol

Been round endless supermarkets all week for just three items.

Pasta - sold out everywhere
Paracetamol - ditto
Toilet roll - ditto

.

I am starting to wonder about the merits of waiting lists for certain items
