Iam beginning to think the only way to absolutely squash the spread of this virus in the uk is go for a total 100% lockdown for say 4 weeks.Shut all the airports,seaports,channel tunnel,all shops and the supermarkets to close,all public and private transport to stop,petrol stations closed and no one allowed out of their homes for ANY reason whatsoever! Except for medical professionals that work in hospitals.Food delivered as per govt rations by the military,firebrigade,police as they did in China.
That should see new infections and hospital addmissions reduced to a tiny number and ultimately be much safer to begin gradually returning to normal afterwards.
The present restrictions/lockdown is pointless and not going to cut it and imo are not effective,everything might just as well carry on as normal.
