Exactly. Stirling, I hope you’re reading this. Not every workplace is a respectable office, shop or government building. Cleanliness and hygiene in Britain won’t happen everywhere. Nothing can happen everywhere. We have just passed laws that give the Police huge new powers to restrict civil liberties. So I hardly think passing laws that require businesses to implement new hygiene requirements is hardly revolutionary or mind blowing Rudi......We need to move towards this as a matter of course and I think this will be an eventual consequence....I'd be doing it now.

No it doesn't. Read my other replies to the really rather stupid responses to my first comment and maybe you might begin to see the actual truth. There are too many posting here jumping to conclusions and offering knee jerk reactions. You are an exploiter and a hypocrite, the fact that you have so little in the way of self reflection doesn't change that fact. Carry on believing that your critics are stupid.

When this really hits Africa, they will not be able to handle it like Ebola. When Europe has healed this summer, will Italy still welcome potential virus carriers off their boats? Syria's health system is damaged. What happens when the camps in Turkey and Greece become infected? The local 'natives' will not be impressed after coming out of a lockdown.
We'll never die |

I expect the statistics coming out of third world countries will be about as reliable as China's. I'd imagine that this virus is doing its thing in the cities. However, this virus's main demographic is the weak elderly and the rather stark reality is that Africa and the third world in general have rather less of them. People are safer in the rural space due to there being less people however...on the other hand perhaps they aren't likely to get much in the way of information either.

No-one, including me, has posted about "referendums or elections" for many weeks. Brexit as an issue has all but disappeared from the nation's consciousness. Not everybody else is wrong! Many other people are right. Not many though post here. At 11.16 you post about knee jerk reactions and now not many on HOL are right.

It's not just about cleanliness, the buildings aren't designed to allow 2 metre distances, corridors and space between machines and people having to move about as a routine make it impossible. Just giving someone 1 face mask doesn't cover it.

This is the greatest test generation Z has ever faced. And all we have to do is sit in doors and play videogames. Not bad at all when you think about what others have had to face. A couple of years ago I was chatting to my great aunt at a wedding. She's in her 90's and faily senile, but a lovely woman and a great charicter. She was asking me if I owned a house and said "all these youngester now, they all say they can't afford to BUY there own house, when me and your uncle Charlie were younger, I shared a two bedroom house in Peckham with my four brothers" She paused for a bit..... Then said... "AND THE GERMANS WERE DROPPING BOMBS ON US!" Then she started laughing.

For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

It’ll be good if they do. But there are a lot of ignorant people and colleagues, lazy and negligent bosses and businesses, plus the difficulties in buildings implementing this to give them further excuse to why bother. I agree they’re going to have to do as much as they can, or we’re going to hope they do, but I wouldn’t have trusted them to do it in February and March. I see Sweden are keeping things going with their clean environment and people who will no doubt follow the rules to stop the spread. When I venture out it’s almost every teenager I see is with more teenagers from other households. That will never change. Edited by Rudi Hedman (01 Apr 2020 9.41am)
