You're missing the point if there's particles of microscopic virus on trollies and baskets etc you can still cross contaminate even wearing gloves
I know that. But you do what you can. It's all about reducing risk. So ideally, the best way of reducing risk is not going to the supermarket in the first place. But if you have to, you do what you can to reduce risk. And then obviously as soon as you get in, wash your hands, burn your clothes and lock yourself in the cellar for a week Smiley

Moronic family who live opposite us have their oap mum round. They're the only fuckers I have nothing to do with in my street and this confirms them as the cunts they are to me.

ebola is massively worse than this. not surprised he recommended lockdown

Prof. Whitty concluded that the international response to the Ebola epidemic was not decisive and too slow. Many agreed.

Ebola is not a highly infectious airborne transmitter like CV. CV loves a crowd.

Cheltenham, Bath half and Stereophonics concerts et al all went ahead with the knowledge that CV was already on the island, amongst us.

The Govt response has been anything but quick or decisive, but apparently based on 'science'. Not the science of Prof. Whitty is all I'm suggesting.

Same here. The family you knew would be stupid enough to see their grandparents have just had BOTH sets of elderly grandparents around, and one lady could hardly walk. What is wrong with these people?

They're selfish idiots. This is why the government have to make everything an order if we're going to stamp this out

The govt have tried to go down the softly softly approach and provide advice for people but there are too many blasé people that think that they are either superhuman and not going to get sick or are completely oblivious to the fact that they can actually spread the virus to people that are actually going to fucking DIE from this.

I think it’s time for the Govt to really get hard and harsh with people. In 2 weeks the reality is really going to kick in, and HARD.

So here in spain our lockdown has been extended for an extra 15 days. This surprised no one. Nearly 400 dead yesterday and another 3000 infected and we have been on arguably alongside China the tightest restrictions in the world.

If you are caught on the streets without a legitimate reason fines start at €600 going up to €30,000
Caught twice - 3 months in jail.

In Malaga province 33,000 fined last week

I live in a village in the mountains- think the size of cricklade- we are now not being able to leave the village. My friend went to do her shopping down the mountain to an Aldi and was stopped and was told to use the small express store in the village.

We are so hoping these figures start to slow.

Last Sunday we had 4,000 infected. So 22,000 in a week. The uk currently has 5,000. That’s how quick this can escalate and that’s with a quarantine

Just had to send a difficult email to our sons private tutor. I imagine his work has fallen off a cliff for now with all his GCSE & A level students rendering his services useless. Lovely bloke and a joy to have him in our house to help the lad. So if anyone needs a maths tutor in the future for their child I can pass on a solid recommendation.

It's a sad, real life story that will be repeated a million times over all over the country.  You have to feel for every one of them.

Thanks for sharing how life is for you and really hope things improve for everyone soon. Can you please tell me if factories are working as I work in manufacturing and still no sign they want to shut us down
