    Why won’t he get tested?

    He says he probably will, BUT not because he was near the guy who tested positive though. Just getting tested for different reason. When? He's working on that, scheduling etc. hahaha

    Rise in Spanish cases now well in to the thousands for today alone.

    But the gov advices you to 'restrict the social movements' and maybe work from home if you can, coming back from this virus infected zone.

    If Boris estimates real number of infected to be ~10.000 in UK, then how many must be there in Spain or Italy?

    What is the government trying to achieve? Delay the economic slump by keeping the status quo for as long as possible?

    Quest are doing the testing in the US according to the press conference.

    I think this is the same company that were involved in the cervical check scandal i.e Quest Diagnostics.

    Double facepalm. The UK is (kinda has been) f-ucked.

    What worries me deeply is the Common Travel Area and and lack of border with NI.

    If the UK has decided to let everyone get sick and we have no control over people traveling here from the UK ... our own efforts to reduce contagion will be ruined by a constant inflow of sick people :-/

    Not from what I've seen. In the suburbs anyway. Zero mask wearing, mad crowds in supermarkets, a few muppets coughing and spluttering, and others going to the pub or restaurants of an evening. I know four people who are going into the centre of the city for food and drinks tonight.

    I thought wearing masks was useless unless diagnosed with it. Saw two people today in a small Cork village wearing them. I've only met my wife and 2 children today, hope I can keep it like that for a good while.

    Anyone know who we contact if not registered with a GP?

    I have upper respiratory tract infection history and have experienced all the symptoms outlined today. In addition I have been told my work office was shut down today due to someone being in contact with a confirmed case. I have been working from a secondary office for last two weeks as closer to home, only issue could be IT staff that go across both buildings. I also traveled through Pakistan, Dubai, Qatar and Istanbul in last few weeks.

    there wasn't so much an issue with the tests, rather the frequency of checkups on this side

    You can phone local/nearest A&E as well. Check the symptoms on this page first.

    If you can't get a GP to take you on the HSE will allocate you a GP as far as I know. But you would have to have been refused as far as I know (double check this). Not sure about the current climate Im sure there will be exceptions in light of the current situation.
