Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced nationwide lockdown measures late Friday as British health authorities registered a spike in Wuhan Coronavirus deaths.

Gosh the virus has effected everyone’s brain.
They have escalated the situation to quite peeved.
Mad world. So many liberties lost and so many jobs lost over nothing! People are such frustrating sheep and the media loves all this. So if no one goes to school in the fall what happens to my wifes teaching job?
Some places are doing online, some are doing "worksheet packets". Not sure how long that could go on.
What do you mean "over nothing"?
My other daughter lives in that house which is away from town and she had some mild symptoms but did not stay away from work. She apparently gave whatever to some coworkers who also had mild distress and did not get slowed down. For 1st daughter and boys it all lasted about ten days and was done. So this morning we have an official WuHaner from Texas. And except for a minor uptick in old folks going to the hospital with flu there was no other obvious indication of flu going around then. I think maybe the Chinese stuff has already been through here.
How long ago was it that he said he was going to do the opposite?
“So many liberties lost and so many jobs lost over nothing!”
Jeep a stiff upper lip.
I escaped just in time, and it felt like it too, as London was closing around me earlier this week and the flight out was iffy. My memories of my most recent visit to England will have to last awhile!
Man, just as I was getting a kick out of watching BigJetTV
The additional 40 deaths, most of whom surely involved people who had serious preexisting conditions, has caused the Brits to respond as if people are dying like flies.
So let me get this straight:
A country with 66 million people loses less than 200 people to Corona virus while they lose 2,000 a year to auto accidents.
They better exterminate those damn cars before they work on the Corona virus.
Mine is a private schoo. No parents paying tuition means no teachers
Over a virus that at worst will kill 8 million over a world population of 7 billion
Thats a possibility I suppose but who do you trust?
The facts changed, so he changed his mind. What would you do?
