Not sure how there's been enough time yet. People dying now were infected a month ago, so we have to allow for those infected prior to lockdown, and those infected during the initial lockdown period to play out.

It's not going to happen, sadly.
I work in a town centre and there's more people around since the lockdown began than there was before. We are pretty much having our best sales ever and it's down to people wanting to nip out to buy cushions and paint to do up their houses. People aren't staying in, they aren't going out just for essentials.
This lockdown will last for months.

But blame should be layed at the shops and government for allowing the shops that are not selling none essentials to remain open.

What essentials are being sold for this shop to remain open
they were never going to reduce the figures to zero, what they had to do was cause enough impact so that the pressure was lessened on the NHS. If the peak happens in the next week or 2 and the NHS is still coping, the objective will have been achieved.
They will reduce the severity of the lockdown at some point before people go insane, but it will be done in small steps, checking every 3 weeks if it has had a severe impact or not
It's going to take a long time before things are back to normal, if they ever really will be, the working from home directive could remain in place permanently until there is a vaccine or the number of infected reduce to double digits

No, if you hear 'we're in lockdown, only go out for essentials.' and you decide to have a day out at the shops then you're to blame. Even if you tighten up the lockdown completely like Italy did, you'd still be getting people going out because of stupidity.
If people listened then we would be out of lockdown sooner rather than later.

Agreed but that's not our call to make, instead we just have to deal with ****ing morons that can't follow instructions unless they are forced to and even then it's ropey at best.
If you aren't shopping for essentials, don't go out. It should be simple but nope, most people tell themselves that this unprecedented situation is nothing to worry about and get mad when they are mildly inconvenienced.

Exactly, most people have definitely been listening, from almost everyone I know and what i've seen (apart from supermarkets) there's been a massive reducement in movement, I had no choice for the first time in two weeks to go to Birmingham city centre a few days ago, and the city was quiet. There will always be some people buying unnecessary items because realistically you can't expect a whole nation to co-inside unfortunately, maybe with stricter forces in place you could manage it such as China did, but the UK has a history of freedom and anti-socialist values so i'll doubt the government would ever enforce extremely strict measures.
There's always going to still be areas such as supermarkets that will be busy because food is essential, smaller towns I guess might not seen a giant difference because towns are often where most people live, City's are the dangerous areas as they're usually crowded areas where the virus could thrive because there's always a movement of people a reason as to why New York is going to probably be the worst affected area in the world.
In terms of the lockdown, I think it'll most defiantly go on for this entire month. no one can tell when lockdown can end because it's a virus, and things change on the daily. If I was to predict like everyone else I would say by early May they'll be some reductions. I'm all for people lives are more important the economy, but I really don't see the extreme predicts some people are saying like this will last months, the economy would collapse, they're would be more deaths from that then the virus, the lockdown needs to be in place until hospitals have the strength to support cases.

we dutch also care about our freedom honestly, but staying at home is a absolute must now in this crisis
however you can still enjoy your freedom at home, i mean no one restricts you to stay indoors, your garden or balcony depending where you live is part of your home
also a suggestion of mine, do not watch the news too much, it can make you depressed if you constantly watch that

Two possibilities here:
1) They know it's not going to happen but are giving ultimatums to keep the lockdown as tight as possible. Using the idea of getting out as a "carrot" to encourage people to be safe.
My thoughts on this is that it is a HUGE error in terms of social psychology. When it's withdrawn for "naughtiness" at the last minute, there will be a drop in patience levels and disobedience will increase.
2) Alongside the clearly deliberately selected "we might still need to do herd immunity" govt press release "that was just one advisor" - they are baby-stepping a scared public into accepting that for economic reasons, certain aspects of lockdown will have to end long before the infection levels have decreased dramatically.
I'm edging towards believing option two because I think people are severely underestimating the looming economic catastrophe, whilst governments are all too aware of it. They can't say these things outright though because SoMed deems it "choosing money over lives" as they're incapable of understanding how closely the two are linked.

The public narrative seems to be the NHS are all good (even the people who run it appallingly in many cases) and the government are stupid and bad. The public are stupid and bad (mainly the poor thick ones) and them and the government are to blame for everything. If i clap the NHS once a week i can be absolved of any blame?

No population of humans has ever been placed on this strict a lockdown for a prolonged period of time in written history, which means it has probably never happened, ever.
And we're not psychologically cut out for that level of cabin fever.
Compliance rates will drop steadily over time as people lose willpower and the idea that most people will still be complying even 50% in 3 months is very, very optimistic - let alone the 6 months+ that some people are predicting. I know people don't believe or maybe just don't like what I'm saying but :shrug:. Quote me in 3 months if I'm wrong I suppose.

I was just reading up on the Spanish lockdown rules.
You're only allowed out for food or medicine, to walk a dog, go to hospital or work if necessary.
Going out for exercise isn't allowed.
Lockdown has just been extended to 26th April, so six weeks in total so far.
.....One of the strictest quarantines in Europe is in Spain, where people can only leave home to buy food and medicines, walk the dog, go to the hospital or commute to work if absolutely necessary. Fines for infringement range from a very specific €601 to an eye-watering €30,000, and the police are not holding back in dishing them out.
Unlike most other European countries, physical exercise is banned in Spain, but what about exercising while commuting to work? The answer is no.
In the Basque Country, police threatened to fine a man for cycling to the factory where he works, on the basis that exercise is forbidden and therefore he should take public transport. The government’s emergency decree says cycling is allowed only in case of force majeure, but it doesn’t make clear what that would entail.
The cyclist would have been in even bigger trouble had he lived in Madrid, where Mayor José Luis Martínez-Almeida has said local police will have “zero tolerance” with those who say they are going to work but cannot produce a certificate signed by their employer to prove it.....

Oh I agree, people should stay in unless they’re essential shopping, but in some cases the food availability means they have to check multiple supermarkets etc, that’s fine imo, I’ve had to go to the shops 3 times since the lockdown due to certain foods not being available due to people still stockpiling like prats

I can only speak for the supermarkets around here I have been to (Asda for myself and Tesco for a patient) and the supermarkets seem to have the stock and availability steady now.
In Asda the only limited items were Nappies (2 of each size) Toilet Rolls (1 large or 2 small packs) Baby Milk (2 of each age) and handwash (2). I even asked the lady lady who served me, as I know her.
They had no Flour or Pasta though.

All food products is essential, you need options because if you start limiting what people can buy for food, that food runs out quick. Better to keep food options open as to spread the demand out.

I would have tried to help him. I wouldn't have videoed him though.

Yes its very sad wandering naked not even shoes . The person ffilming him had stopped in a car across the rd , he would have done a better thing by ringing for help .

i dont get why people are getting in a hissy fit about people outside in London. The place is rammed with people period, if 20% go for a walk at the same time its crowded. Get real with how many people live in cities. If people can go out to exercise once, guess what, that is what it looks like.

Sick to death of the Corona Police trying to stop us buying our Easter eggs. They are ESSENTIAL to life so suck it.

I dont remember Jesus popping to Aldi on Good Friday to grab an easter Egg
i just checked the number of confirmed cases in my area. The number is more than 100 times what it was 3 weeks ago, so i don't see the lockdown ending anytime soon

its ok to sit whilst out on your walk there is no rule to say "keep moving" as long as you keep your distance

Why do you need to sit? you are out for exercise, sit by a window with it open if you need fresh air

Anyone making excuses or bending the rules to the guidelines, are the people that will ensure we stay locked down for longer.

Unfortunately people are and always will be selfish and try to break the rules and make others suffer, if anyone I love dies from this, I’ll be going ****ing ape**** at every single one of them that I see.

Absobleedinloutely Glenn because all the people obeying the rules ~ like ourselves are gonna mighty pissed off if it continues .
Of course the Scottish health woman thinks she is different ! just like all those people on Primose Hill , she has single handedly shat in everyones handbag !
She must go immediately ~ set an example to others.

It's great we have our mind readers to know why people are doing things...

Because they are selfish. Can’t explain it better than that. Guidelines have been made simple enough, just wasn’t clear enough for the most simple of people.
Oh I agree, people should stay in unless they’re essential shopping, but in some cases the food availability means they have to check multiple supermarkets etc, that’s fine imo, I’ve had to go to the shops 3 times since the lockdown due to certain foods not being available due to people still stockpiling like prats
How do you know it just wasn't 100 people buying the same thing you wanted to buy?
Maybe you just lazy.:shrug:

Usually I have absolutely no problems getting these items, now I do :shrug:
Don't know why you would go out today anyway, we've all known muppets would be out and about this weekend..why be one if them?
I don't think you can moan about people when you have went out yourself. :shrug:

Absolute rubbish. I’ve been on plenty of walks in my time and I’ve never seen anyone feel the need to have a sit down mid walk. People know exactly what they’re doing and they’re putting the rest of us at risk.
Go out for your exercise and come back home.

This.
To put it bluntly, these people need to stop being selfish pricks and actually think of other people who could get the Coronavirus because of their selfish actions to unnecessarily go outside.
Shopping, working, or walking your Dog are the only reasons people should be going out imo.
