They can't expect us to stay in for six months can they? It' s just not realistic.

There's not going to be much love for China after all of this, it's sad to say.
The fallout is going to be immense. I suspect a lot of Chinese people in this and other countries will be quite terrified.

They can't expect us to stay in for six months can they? It' s just not realistic. This is why they've gone for this approach where they don't bring in curfews, don't involve the law - yet. It's advised that you stay indoors until the worst is over. There's not going to be much love for China after all of this, it's sad to say. The fallout is going to be immense. I suspect a lot of Chinese people in this and other countries will be quite terrified. Do you reckon? I wonder more about the situation in China and how much truth they're telling us. The media here seem absolutely fine with accepting their stats, all of a sudden ('no new cases' etc.).

They need to sort out the way they keep their livestock in food markets. This isn't the first virus that has come from there in this way.

You could go out for the longest walk you could manage - on your own - without any risks. Is that right? I think I might just go out tomorrow and walk for miles in a straight line.

This is a good video on this. The markets were banned following the SARS outbreak but the power of the breeding lobbies and corruption allowed them to continue.

I have absolutely no faith in the Chinese state telling the truth. It's a corrupt totalitarian regime.
I suspect that the death toll is far worse than they are letting on in Wuhan.

STAGGERING stuff from Rishi Sunak. He's had a baptism of fire.
This is historic stuff - we are going to be seeing the implications of this intervention for decades.

The cost will pale in comparison to the amount of potential lost jobs. There were some predictions that there would be more bankruptcies than deaths.

And clearly some companies had a heads-up, as the hotel chain my son works at has fired everyone in events, so there will be that many fewer claims on the public purse. I'm livid

The DWP will be needing a major recruitment intake I'd imagine.

The market has to adapt. All the major supermarkets are on a huge recruitment drive at the moment. Transport and delivery drivers will be too.

I'm livid That's pretty shitty. Having dealt with lots of events people through the years at tradeshows, they mostly bend over backwards for their customers. I hope all the good people get better jobs at other hotels/event centers.
