Sums up your level. Do you know what a Fender Telecaster is. And do you have Welsh connections. Too frightened to answer?

The problem is that some people won't and aren't following guidelines.
A friend of mine has a nephew who was tested positive and had symptoms for about three days and all the family initially followed guidelines by all staying indoors. By the fourth day the nephew felt better so went back to school and as both parents didn't feel ill they too went back to work.
How many people have now been infected due to the actions of that one family is anyone,s guess. Location was not Rotherham if that,s any comfort.

This family have had a right rollicking from their next of kin but it's too late now.

I did read the link Roly.

Here’s another:

Your point? All Tory is it??? Who do we blame?

There really no point.

Keep safe.

You have not read my thread Howdy.I stated that all world govts were culpable for not acting on the advice that a pandemic was coming. And you don't answer the questions I pose then do a Crash.

I think some of the tory govts decisions are probably right in the circumstances, I get no joy out of the fact that there will be at least some needless deaths because our govts, whatever their colour have not put plans in place to cope with such an eventuality.

My main argument with the tory party is that they have been in power now a number of years and irrespective of what is happening have shown sod all interest in the NHS. The chickens now are coming home to roost and if they don't make a decent job of fighting this bug they will be very accountable to those who do lose relatives. I don't expect a magic wand and recognise these are difficult unprecedented times.

Keep safe yourself.

Lets hope Boris and the tory party are national heros and not villains when this is over. We shall see.

You could argue Mike that our death to victim rate is a lot better than most country's. to date
Tomorrow owt could happen
You could argue our situation is behind the curve. As I said to Roly. Not everything has to have a blame in this world. Something's are out of our control and you deal with the best hand delt. The government thinks the strategy they are using is the correct one. Time will tell as were no way near the end of it. Maybe it would help if folk followed the government guide lines.

You are still misunderstanding me Cayton. I'm not overly critical of how the govt is handling the corona virus but we would have had a much better chance of dealing with this if we had a NHS that was stronger and geared up for it. Have you been happy with the running of the NHS in the last few years hand on heart? You seem an honest sort of chap...

And yes most govts in the world can be blamed for knowing this was coming and being complacent and not doing owt about it.

Maybe Boris can pull it off. We can only hope so but he aint playing with a good hand partly because of his own partys choosing.

I would guess the govt has factored this into their plans or should. The pull of the pub and a pint for some irresponsible types particularly if they are young will be just too much for them. If they get the bug so what they will think Im young and young people dont get it severely. I don't know any old folk so tough luck to them.

Im not saying thats right but we all know a lot of people dont give a monkeys about others.
