Day 5, in the year of our lord 6020, pass ye shall not in to thine kingdom, for thou shall reap the wrath of the isolation warrior unless ye know thine word of pass.
Here goes... Coronavirus.

Coronavirus Update (Live): 616,161 Cases and 28,376 Deaths from COVID-19 Virus Outbreak - Worldometer
Live statistics and coronavirus news tracking the number of confirmed cases, recovered patients, and death toll by country due to the COVID 19 coronavirus from Wuhan, China. Coronavirus counter with new cases, historical data, and info. Daily charts, graphs, news and updates
looks like some news is very fake
My sister works in a hospital, out of the 12 wards, 8 of them are full of Covid patients.
She went home on Thursday morning with 29 patients, went back into work Thursday night and only had 8 patients.
21 people died in 12 hours.
And yet they still report there's only 38 cases in Worcestershire.
They are lying to us about these figures.
Think about it, over 14,000 cases of people with Covid.... not a child among them? Really? ?
Obviously, mass panic is the last thing needed. But they need to tell the truth to keep people at home.

According to the map here: Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS
93 confirmed cases in worcestershire, though the figures are delayed by at least 32 hours.
Also, Birmingham area has highest death rate in UK apparently.
The reductions due to quarantine should start to filter through now, and If the figures are to be believed, only 2546 new cases today, compared to 2885 yesterday... that's a huge reduction!
It’s wrong they should be open and honest..we’re going to find out somewhere down the line.
okay so from the briefing right now, we’re looking at six months plus before we can return to normal. That’s a guesstimate. Frightening.
I think it,ll be nearer a year personally
I agree. I think it’s going to be much longer. But she’s stated that if we don’t see stability in the next three week review, then we’re looking at six months minimum.
I agree, probably a year. I’m doing some work this week on curriculum. Can’t see our son going back to the Army any time soon either.
It is actually quite frightening. Deaths are definitely on the increase too.
Just watching the update now its rather heart breaking
on the plus side, the number of daily new cases has decreased two days in a row. Quarantine is working and is effectively flattening the exponential curve to a more rounded one! the dark blue line is the number of daily new cases, and the light blue markers indicate a perfect exponential path (e.g. 1 person infects between 2 - 2.5 new people, so the number of new cases would have grown exponentially along this path). It's taken a week for these changes to show up because of how long it takes for symptoms to show up. the numbers on the left is new cases per day, along with day number at the bottom. i started not at 0 cases, but when we first hit more than 10 cases.
hopefully, this trend can continue!

I hope so. Too many are saying that we acted too late. I disagree, the Govt did the right thing - we acted at the right time. People are going to die. But by acting this way, we’re all reducing the numbers.
you're right, e.g. today should have been (estimated) 4000 new cases, it's just over half that instead. that gives the nhs breathing space, and allows them to give those currently fighting more time and attention.
Now there saying that the isolation could go on until October??
It's eery how quiet everywhere is now, no noise from cars in the background, no children out playing with other neighbours. it's driving me insane!
I've been told I need to redeploy and go back out to work, it's scary x
Even the some street lightings turned off..spooky out there.
There’s gonna be a lot of mental health issues when it’s over..trust me?
"I'll do it when I get back from the pub" is no longer an excuse!
Instead of doing my normal job from home, I'm having to go out and do a different job that cant be done at home. I work for a animal charity so I'm off to clean, feed and walk the dogs. It will be nice to get out and fo it, just worrying in these times x
dogs are awesome! can't the virus be transmitted across animals though, including to dogs?
what do you think about the tv show "pit bulls and parolees"?
