Coronavirus outbreak

Northwick Park Hospital, Harrow, has gone critical, having no critical care capacity left, according to the Guardian live feed. This is only just beginning.

You are right.

Separately the MP for Brent tweeted "...a doctor who informed me that Medical staff do not have Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and some are sharing masks."

FFS!

AFAIK Northwick Park is the largest NHS hospital in West London. When my bikes (24.5" in old money) are given away, please be good and form an orderly queue?

You are right.

Sky reporting it's been downgraded again. I just hope that's right for the moment.

Right that's it every thing closed from tonight. That's what you get when you don't play by the rules well done.

Some infographics from corriere della sera going up to yesterday.

Anomalous bits are Molise (small region), Basilicata (rural) and Trentino (autonomous) that had a kink that was positive for a bit.

It was a stupid idea in the first place. Keep the pubs open but tell people not to go to the pub.

Johnson just been on tv giving his daily address. To me, he appears to have no conviction in what he is saying: it's the sort of rambling stuff you add to an exam question answer you know nothing about to make it look as if you do. Random raps on the podium; it's just embarrassing.

The chancellor, on the other hand, looks quite impressive, given that he's been thrown in at the deepest end imaginable.

It seems to have worked in some cases, but rather variable.

Packed pubs in London, Hampshire, Hertfordshire or Glasgow does sound insane.

True but still madness that many not all thought so what who cares.

In all seriousness if anyone really needs help just phone them it's free. Don't just say your ok.

Not closing stuff sooner bad in the sense that 'advice' has very big insurance consequences for employers and knock ons to workers, employees and self employed.

I know I've got about a 6 week's I managed to get a small box to top up the supply. It's not my dog's fault we are in this mess.
