Dunfermline Don Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 We need to support each other locally, that's the key. Small communities helping each other out, keeping each other sane.It's the only thing we can control.The big government stuff will happen. Lots of people will die. But we need to try and be as calm as possible and work together.Blitz spirit will come out of this. And hounding the c***s who will try to profit and stock pile is one of the first things. Get them telt.The best way to get through this is by co-operating. That’s us f####d then as most people are generally too selfish.The government in the 80s saw the destruction of working class communities for the sake of a capitalist ideology and the chickens may be coming home to roost now.I hope I am wrong but I am not too optimistic. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also believe that Italy was screening people at airports. You mean China sent some doctors and asked Italy to pay for them, as a PR stunt. I don't doubt for a millisencond that what is happening in Italy is much worse than what we are being told will happen here, but lets not pretend Chinese doctors have any impact on that. If only the NHS hadn't spent the last decade having its budget obliterated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFCDannyFTH Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I've seen so many comments on Facebook and Twitter saying "thoughts and prayers" for the recovery of those infected etc. How do religious folk justify these situations? If their god is in control of everything, why would he create a disease like this and why would he let innocent people suffer and die? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JTS98 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 In the flat with fever/chills and a dry throat. No cough yet, so hopefully just your bog-standard bug. But who knows? Can't leave my flat in this state because they are temperature checking everyone every time they enter the building. If I'm above whatever they consider acceptable, I get kicked out the building. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got a dodgy heart from getting viral pneumonia a few years back. I hear folk saying it’s just like the flu and you’ll get over it no problem. Pneumonia is a horrible illness I was in the ICU ward for a week hooked up to oxygen, it took 3 months to get over it and left me with heart failure. Scary stuff coming folks. Stay healthy. I definitely feel for anyone who is in the high risk category. I'm not specifically worried about getting the virus itself. I'm confident I have a strong enough constitution to fight it with minimal issues. My overriding worry is that I catch it and before I know it's even a thing, pass it onto my stepdaughter (who works in a care home with the most frail of people). I've already decided that I'm going to stay away from my mum for the next few weeks. Her immune system could very well be compromised by this so I don't want to put her at risk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can hardly draw a fucking breathe at times. Thats now 2 weeks of this shit, so hopefully its near the end (or I am). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpetmonster Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Can imagine the US shutting borders now. Mexico are now talking about shutting the northern border as there's only 15 diagnosed cases there so far and they don't want it to get any worse. The GIRFUY aspect won't have crossed their minds at all, I don't think. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
