It we had the benefit of foresight and still fucked it up. Our trajectory is now exactly the same as Italy's and there is nothing we can do to stop it. Its terrifying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been running so wide around people on my runs that you can actually see the curves on Strava. Someone'll spoil it for everyone though, they always do. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 I'd like to apologise to @Rentonfor taking the piss the other week. It's getting to me a bit now. And now I've lost gym access that keeps me relatively sane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7004 Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 The worlds landscape will be changed for the next decade. America will have it ten times worse than us too. It can go 2 ways though, either we pull together like we did following WW2, or the Cummings and the like use this as an excuse to ramp up control of the masses permanently. Good luck to everyone on here, I hope most of us survive relatively unscathed both medically and financially 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Corbyn had just announced the welfare package Boris has the Gammons would have been frothing at the mouth for years to come Maybe after a grip is gained on this and it all calms down the Tories might have developed a heart and some humility. There's no doubt the landscape of society has changed forever, it certainly has changed the whole life perspective for many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21388 Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 This is as big as WW2. Bigger in some ways. I mean at least then you could go to the pub, cafe, or have a bite to eat. And at least you could see the enemy. All medical research at Newcastle Trust (the largest centre for clinical research in the UK) has been halted. All focus is on coronavirus now, nothing else matters. I hope I get redeployed to play some part in this. I'd actually love to get back to the labs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
