There is hard evidence of people not social distancing when visiting others homes, and action has been taken on that. Just to put it in perspective, I last visited a pub at Christmas, and the time before that was the previous Christmas, so I have no invested interest in pubs being open, but I don't think they should be singled out for negative treatment unless there is hard evidence that pubs are causing a problem and 2 pubs closing is not evidence. |

So I'm not saying close all the doors immediately - my concern is that excuses will be made to the point where the doors won't be closed until after the horse has bolted... something that we have seen repeatedly in the last 6 months. Last edited by Toy Soldier; 10-08-2020 at 01:31 PM. |

Sooooo we have a few cases at work, I've been in contact with one of them in a meeting last week. So my team and I are stuck at home, still working though.
And today they announced the whole company will be taking shifts for homeworking: 1 group at work for a week, next week at home etc Tests results came back today, I'm negative. We all wore masks during the meeting, but I was sitting next to the person that tested positive two days later. A relief! PS: thank God I have aircon at home, the weather is burning right now

How are pupils going to study for next year's exams if they don't go back to school this year.
If they don't go back in the Autumn it probably won't be until next year, which means almost a whole year lost. |

...I never understand who these polls are that ‘reveal’ these things...of course, parents have fears because we all have fears about various different aspects...I mean, we’re living our days with a deadly virus...but when our academy ‘polled’ parents...as in when the years started to come back at the end of last term...parents were virtually 100% in favour of their children returning...(..despite any fears...)....it’s going to be challenging and there are safety measures that I’d like to be put into place but won’t be, unfortunately...but schools don’t need that sort of media reporting and ‘polls’ just stoking fears...they need support from the media with their polls for a time that’s going to be quite challenging...

the media have done way more harm than good during the pandemic. They should be ashamed of themselves

Completely agree, the reporting at times has been nothing short of negligent

Really sad although expected and much worse to come it's feared once the furlough scheme is ended soon. I fear for older workers than those in their 30s now losing their jobs. I mean people in their late 40s and 50s. Who may find other opportunities not available to them either. I don't envy any government now charged with trying to rebuild not only the economy but also the whole social elements of society from care to everything else. I hope, this lot are up to the challenge. Because this is the next massive test to them. I'll hold my thoughts in as to if I think they will be up to it. I'm trying to visualise too, towns and cities, where businesses are now just giving up and closing. It's not just the loss of lives cost and the devastating grief of loved ones losing their family and friends that this hateful virus has affected. It's also going to be those in what was their work and building their futures who now losing their jobs, pride and dignity, who will also suffer massively from the legacy of this virus. |

...I know a few people who are part of the track and trace as well and they’re being paid but basically aren’t doing anything...so this ‘radical shake up..’ is a bit confusing and conflicting in what they’re saying...all of these phone calls that aren’t being replied to, aren’t being made...which would be why they’re not being replied to, I strongly suspect...anyways, yeah media is a bitch...but the lies from our government and misleading information is a bitch also...
