Coronavirus - is enough being done to contain it?

Amidst all the fear and panic, there are some genuinely heartwarming stories of sharing, sacrifice and goodwill.

If the channels and its stars had any conscience they’d pitch in with some free credits, reduced prices or tip-free banter in the chat box.

If ever there was a time for a collective national wank, this is it...

Two apache helicopter gun ships passed overhead about half an hour ago. I'd say we are in for drastic measures very soon!!!

Probably from Monday onwards.

That was denied today in the government briefing. No plans for lockdown, but likely to be restrictions on pubs and restaurants.

Italy’s death total now exceeds that of China’s and Iran have reported a death is occurring in Iran every 10 minutes.

In the US idiots on Spring Break packed beaches in Miami and basically said they were not bothered if they got it because they were there to party. Today the Mayor of Miami shut the beaches.

Some positive news that as a result of Coronavirus your social media content can improve. No doubt as with many forum members I follow a number of girls on social media. One such girl was Delia Rose. Now I have to admit I’ve long thought she was a few pennies short of a shilling but recently her Instagram stories have been full of conspiracy stories about Coronavirus. So today I pointed out that if she believed that bollocks she was dumber than she looks and she would be better using her social media presence to lift people up not scaring them.

I’m now blocked so my social media content is immediately improved

This afternoon I've read and taken part in some good banter in the chat with both Evelyn and Charmaine

This kind of irresponsibility must stop
... what the hell is that going to do to our already depleted stocks of tissues and lavatory paper ?
These scarce materials need to be saved for sneezes only !
A period of indefinite abstinence is surely the only way forward

They'll all be in the bars now I bet then they're shut, and then they're left with nowhere to, no planes home Serve them right for not taking the right attitude..and good on the Mayor.
