The idea of what the government is doing with their measures for squashing the curve of the transmission rates of CoV SARS 2 (COVID 19).
If the govt wanted a greater level of suppression then we would be on lockdown already.
It will come.
In the meantime don't curse your fellow man for assessing risk differently to the majority of the population.
Yes some will be due to selfishness but others will be astute.
Let's keep calm and carry on, but engage the brain and be kind. |

Yes, even those who aren't meeting but can understand others' perspectives are getting a backlash. |

I have relatives who cannot see the bigger picture or understand mental well-being needs. So the forum is only representative of the bigger world. I'm seen as naive. |

I wouldn't call it naive, you're just hopeful that people can think outside of themselves. There are countries such as Taiwan who have exhibited how to effectively collectively respond to negate a pandemic.
Thousands have died in Italy, just a few hours from the UK, but unfortunately the British people need something disastrous to happen to them individually before even considering acting collectively. |

I did point out early in the week how I thought the govt was suppressing the virus when it was recommended we stay away from clubs and pubs etc. They knew some people wouldn't comply but they didn't reckon on mass non compliance, hence the quick turn around and closing these areas.
If the numbers of non-compliance re new recommendations exceed their expectations then we'll go into lockdown sooner rather than later.

Because they're exposing the whole country to an exponential risk, this makes people who are diligently following the guidance understandably angry.
This isn't the time to be expressing rights to personal freedoms, it's a time for exercising personal responsibility and if it's done universally and effectively we could avoid the most dire consequences of this disease and the ultimate prevention measures which will be used to contain it. |

The advice afaik is to not go out unless absolutely unavoidable, and then to maintain social distancing if you do. The advice isn't go out if you want to as long as you observe social distancing. |

Your post I responded to didn't mention the word (or abuse of people maintaining social distance), my response simply pointed out why people are losing patience with others who are cavalier about the guidelines.
We're lucky, we can learn from the horrendous experiences of Spain and Italy, so the people who still ignore it need the message reinforcing since they're increasing the risk to everybody else (in my opinion of course). |

I believe we should Al keep calm - emotions arising (stress related) sees a rise of cortisol. This raised hormone in our bodies for a long period of time is detrimental to our health. |

I agree, it's perfectly possible to keep calm whilst making a critical point or disagreeing with a contrary point of view! |

There have been many posts abusive in general to those opposing their ideas, and many personal insults. It really isn't acceptable:
(a) against the rules of the site
(b) provocative
(c) potentially hindering own immune levels. |

The big mistake is expecting the general public to do what is needed because as we see there are thousands who are just going about business as usual
They all think it will be ok until it’s not, there is a nurse who was is fit and healthy with no underlying health issues in a BIRMINGHAM hospital who has c19 and is in a real bad way 
And is only 36 so all of these twats who think it will not effect them are in for a shock |

The advice is it's fine and indeed good to go out get some exercise and fresh air as long as you keep the distance, millions still need to go out to work to provide all the services we need to survive. |

Ignore them. I'm going for a run every other day and will take my kids for a walk everyday. We will respect social distance and if any of us show even the remotest sign of a symptom it stops and full isolation begins.
If people have a problem with that, tough. |

"The idea of what the government is doing with their measures for squashing the curve of the transmission rates of CoV SARS 2 (COVID 19).
If the govt wanted a greater level of suppression then we would be on lockdown already.
It will come.
In the meantime don't curse your fellow man for assessing risk differently to the majority of the population.
Yes some will be due to selfishness but others will be astute.
Let's keep calm and carry on, but engage the brain and be kind.
The amount of people who are using the unfortunate situation to verbally abuse other people who react differently to the situation than them is quite staggering
Yep, I've had abuse for saying I was going for a walk with my daughter, called a stupid c**t. It's so unnecessary
I've seen some of the posts and hopefully mods will remove these posts and put those people on the naughty step. "
Yeah I got called a bullshitter for quoting a newspaper article saying that there wouldn't be testing and that people wouldn't be treated unless hospitalised. And here we are not being tested and people being told to stay at home and not being treated until their situation becomes dire.
You can look back at all the posts I have made since late January and look at how much abuse has been thown my way because I didn't follow popular opinion. So unnecessary even if I had been wrong. |

Boris has answered a press question re lockdown. And he has stated he is relying on the advice of the scientific community. It is not time yet.
That doesn't mean tomorrow won't be the time, or tues/thurs/next week/fortnight.
Already shifting the blame
Who is shifting what blame?
They began to use the herd immunity theory.

They are following the advice of the most senior medical and scientific people not bitter rantings of morons fortunately. |

Did you notice when Johnson and Trump changed their tune?
Coincidentally just after the markets crashed. Before that they had been ordered to downplay COVID-19 to prevent panic in the markets. How many people will die because of inaction to protect share prices? |

I like The Lancet but don't forget there are articles present as well results of research. All have writer bias so you have to read with a critical mind. |
