Quite so. A "second wave" around November is one of the predicted possible outcomes. But who really knows? |

Dunno if anyone else is bored as hell cancelling all their evening social plans, but I'm organising an online remote pub quiz this evening at 8pm if anyone wanted to join. BYOB.

It all makes you wonder where mankind will be as a whole in 12-18 months times. Hopefully battered and bruised but otherwise OK.
I expect a lot of changes will be made, including more people working from home. Which could be a good thing.

The broadband infrastructure would have to change. FTTP installation would need to be brought forward with a low cost. |

It's over for now. It remains to be seen whether they get a second wave once they ease the restrictions put in place to help them control it |

Which is one of the concerns. It may not be that they have 'dealt' with it, but rather just locked it away behind a door for a while. Only for the door to be opened again. |

I figure in our new world of being socially responsible (and more importantly, there not being a prize) then maybe not. |
