French prime minister currently announcing drastic measures live on Tv. Sounds like it is going Italy’s way.

And then when they lift the bans ?

surely the growth will just get exponential again ?

This is the most depressing thing. Given how much this has spread through Italy. It's not clear how they can lift the bans. They'll likely have to do in regional phases with very stringent monitoring for new case clusters. Really good paper on this. I'll see if I can dig it up.

That's why every country needs to avoid getting into Italy's situation in the first place.

Spain's government can't seem to agree on emergency measures.

Spain’s government failed to agree on Saturday on a new package of economic and social measures to mitigate the impact of the fight against the coronavirus, a source close to the negotiations told Reuters.

With schools shut across Spain and a first package of economic steps announced on Thursday, the government was expected to go further on Saturday.

The source said ministers disagreed in a seven-hour cabinet meeting on Saturday on what the new measures should be. The source added that the government would aim to agree on them on Tuesday.

Prime minister Pedro Sanchez is due to announce emergency measures including the shutting down of most shops in a news conference scheduled for 8pm local time.

At least there's this. Any suggestions for what they could call themselves? My immediate thought is in the title. Or maybe they could just call themselves The Script or The Blizzards, because all of those shıt bands are just indistinguishable from each other.

Shn99 · 14-03-2020 07:53PM

Where are the moddeling predictions that were supposed to be completed this week? Are we expecting the peak soon or at a lter date, and would schools remain closed until the peak or follow NI in closing for 16 weeks(when they eventually close)

No sorry, I've just been using soap and water. I will have a look at ingredient lists once shops get a stock back in near me.

We won’t though. Just look at the likes of johnny savage telling everyone he’s an absolute legend for going out drinking and a jumped up flu is not gonna tell him what to do!
If I believed him I’d say he’s an irresponsible clown and he’s causing this thing to spread, but I know he’s trolling looking for a reaction. :rolleyes:

All things considered I would say that is a lot of people..every single person there is there just for leisure and entertainment.

And they must be tourists if they're going to the temple bar pub, the prices in there...

For now:
- all non-essential shops to be closed (I assume it means food and pharmacies only to remain open)
- any type of gathering is prohibited
- cafes, restaurants, cinemas and all public gathering locations to be closed

Looking for some advice. My wife has booked a night away in a hotel in Ireland as a birthday present for us on Monday night. Thoughts on whether or not this is a good idea? Plan is to avoid social interactions, etc with other guests for the duration so I’m inclined to think it might be fine but a bit on edge nonetheless...

Ye will probably have the place to yourself, so as good a place as any once you keep minding yourselves re hands and surfaced.

You were giving out about people saying old people were expendable a couple of days ago saying it was communism/socialism causing this, and now your supporting the actions of the U.K. government which looks like it is based around old people being expendable trying to make it all about brit bashing.

So is it completely irresponsible to go to the pub? Myself and my wife would like to go down for one, not necessarily because I'm mad for a pint but I want to support my local business. While one drink won't make it break them, I want them to still be there when this is over.

What do we think?

Yup any non essential leaving of the house. If you want to support them so bad ring in a voucher or something.
