Member Info for CHELSEA7

LL I was thinking of you as I posted. Do you have Sky News?? Very important to hear. We, and G-d knows how many people here are at particular risk. Hearing "just"20,000 people shocked me TBH.

They have 97k aute beds in hospitals, cancelling all operations and procedures and will have 30k free beds in the oming week or so.

3,700 I ntensive Care Beds, freeing up as quick as they can. Fell very reassured seeing and hearingthe faces behindourhealth stratagy, big no nos to pubs, restaurants, supermarkets any gatherings, but Garden OK . Worth watching and answers many issues to questions we have in our heads.

Take care of Yourself.

Says...............we hope measures put into place limit the amount of deaths to 20,000!!!..............or less.

Stay. safe guys. Frightening

Very interesting committee meeting with the Chief Medical Officer for the government.

@SkyNews
Could new #COVID19 cases start to decline in two to three weeks?

"Yes"
@UKScienceChief
says, adding that we should expect the various measures taken by the UK govt to have a "very significant impact" on the #coronavirus peak.

Yes exactly, butthe poster is contradicting himself. Nobody knows, so how can BJ be wrong?

“There are two major unknowns at this stage. We don't know to what extent Covid-19 transmission will be seasonal. And We don’t know if Covid-19 infection induces long-lasting immunity”, he said in a viral thread on Twitter.

“How long immunity lasts for following covid-19 infection is the biggest unknown. Comparison with other Coronaviridae suggests it may be relatively short-lived (i.e. months). If this were to be confirmed, it would add to the challenge of managing the pandemic.

And...................................Time will tell.

Reality is we are relying on others to change as much as we are ourselves to minimalise the virus getting out of control, so yes we all have a duty to change habits and think of others which is just about the most positive thing that could come out from this.

Leas, I agree with that. And I also think the issues with schools not closing yet are largely due to avoiding unnecessary chaos, which would surely happen if millions of kids suddenly had nowhere to go, nor parents to look after them in the event of closure. Pretty sure that will be coming and we keep ending up with the word ""timing"". Apparantly that is supported by data available, and not introducing panic measures, should not IMHO be mistaken as delay or dithering as suggested in very few circles.

Hi Leas, yeah doing good really but of course very worried about this situation.

It seems so much has happened so quickly, I tried a few times and all morning Monday, trying to close down a trade and a few more too, to no avail, but as you say that is not the most important issue , and it is not consuming my mind.

You take care of yourselves, at least you have some decent wine, lol

Leas, good to see you here, hope all is well with you.

Appreciate that Ruck, it certainlyhelpedme see it in a very different light and was hoping a few would watch it themselves.

I think you summed it up perfectly............"".Regardless of whether it turns out a master stroke or a disaster, the government and Boris have to take the advice of the experts. They need the humility and intelligence to realise that they have to rely on expert advice and then enforce policy without causing undue distress and panic.""

That is an opinion I have heard repeatedly from many other people in the last week or so, and yes it does make me angry to see somebody and so many giving there all to be demonised at this stage. I actually think whatever World Leaders are doing we have a disaster on our hands, which can only be mitigated by the extent, as we ourselves find ways to reduce the risks for ourselves.

I keep hearing from Government sources that closing the schools will eventually happen but at this moment in time is not the priority in light of information they have gathered from elsewhere.

Distress and panic will always exist in the face of uncertainty, and the consequences of irresponsible reporting and creating doubt in the minds of people who are desperate for the Government to suceed. As they rely on the health experts advice, we rely heavily too, and there is no humility in ranting who is to blame, blame for what?? As you say only time and data will tell

""Give it a rest"".....................says he who posted on it 8 times yesterday, one opinion for all eh!!

Yes but . .Today 01:37
""I do wonder how much more suffering there will be in the UK as a result of BJ's loosely justified procrastinations the last week or two - in the face of almost all advice and evident experiences around the World with Covid-19"".

""C7 the policy now abandoned, (i.e. waiting for herd immunity), has not worked.""

These are very strong accusations and words. We have been told measures will be stepped up, when the ""time"" dictates. The same words being used by leaders across the world. It is my opinion ""time"" is seeing results across the globe as to measures brought in to combat this virus and ""time"" is also what is needed to plan for Government help in overcoming the financial repercussions that will follow,

To suggest that anybody was prepared fully for what has developed to lay the burden of blame on individuals, without knowing any facts behind the reasoning behind ""timing"" is irresponsible at best

As far as Italy is concerned, and I make no claims to speak as an ""expert"" as you do, brings even more concerns to the table. The first known death in Italy was on the 21st February and we saw just 3 weeks later the death toll rise by nerly 400 people in a 24 hour period to over 1.800 people. I can only imagine what scientists have gleaned about the virus from that alone and from conversations on Sunday it couldn"t have been a surprise to anybody the measures brought in yesterday and those that will come in this week whilst new bills are passed in parliament.

The last thing we need at this moment in ""time"" is to create so much doubt as to our own stratagy. Hearing stories yesterday of huge movements of people forming groups to assist the elderly and infirm is just one huge positive that i hope will help those who are less able to help themselves, and yes I did put myself out to listen to what WHO were saying. Questioning the practicalitiess of implementing all they had to say is quite another subject, imagine how much ""time"" will be needed to invoke that. But the bottom line to that was when I heard they had raised the billions of dollars needed fo to even begin too, and their gratitude to America for providing the biggest proportion of that as they called for other countries to add to their coffers too. I will not comment on my thoughts around that, only to very aware of the agendas that drive much of what we hear, but do not know.

I have 22 neighbours here where I live,,as you know, all much older than me, it comes under sheltered housing for those who are challenged but can live independantly (supposedly), I will choose to minimise as many risks as I can, but loneliness of the elderly is just another issue we need to address. I will assist in that, and with just a little luck out of the impending doom, better society might be born, it certainly won"t be the same.

I liked the manner in which BJ stressed today we are all in this together, and he trusts us to carry out directives, I feel that trust is central nd deserves for us to respect and trust him.
