We are inside through March, ma, pa and the three stooges - but lets be honest.

This is certainly already moving through the homeless/rough sleep population. So literally on the streets.

Can't isolate forever.

There was an article earlier saying that steps need to be taken now to make sure that this doesn't decimate those in refugee camps too. 

 

These people, along with the homeless, could be absolutely fucked.

When you look at that WHO situation board you can't help but think quite a few countries are hiding the true figures for those infected.

With regard to self-isolating for 14 days, what are people supposed to do if they don’t have an adequate supply of food at home and have no one to go to the supermarket for them and can’t order online/book a delivery?

It's very British response from Boris. Just go out and buy food but limit exposure to people.

You would have though those dedicated loons would want to dose up on it then travel as much as possible.

Plus it would only take the Government to spend some of the emergency money they have for such scenarios to have a plan in place that would be mutually beneficial for those suddenly out of work and in the need to earn and the vulnerable who need help.

There's quite a lot of local network support groups being established where healthy people are offering their time and services to local people who are in isolation.

I'm no fan of Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson but the amount of "how am I meant to drive a 10 ton truck from home" etc comments trouble me. 

 

The message was clearly one of "work from home, WHERE POSSIBLE."

 

A lot of what they've announced today seems lacking in detail though. 

 

Webcam on the steering wheel, duh.

On that note, here's a website to find such groups in your local area, if anyone needs such a service or wants to share it on social media for anyone who may need help.

A lot of "IF's" in his statement.

If you can't sort out help then risk it for the biscuit, Doris.
