 I was tempted to try and build/run it but the memory and CPU requirements look very high and would cause my home PC to melt I suspect.

Difficult to pinpoint' where people get virus
At last, the question! From the BBC ticker on the update:
There's a question about where the latest data shows people are picking the virus up - on public transport or supermarkets, for example, as opposed to care homes or hospitals.
Dr Jenny Harries, deputy chief medical officer for England, says it is "difficult to pinpoint" where people pick up the virus.
However, she says new survey data from the chain of transmission in households could provide more information.
Dominic Raab says simply that care homes and hospitals are two "areas of concern" for the government.



So they don't know at the moment, but at least the q was asked.

It's getting bad now. Tomorrow we are celebrating VE Day  at the same time the rest of the World is now mocking us like we do America. This is largely in part to the fact that the Government is now being called out regularly for changing the story to suit its own ineptitude. Watching Question Time and they are still congratulating themselves for all the fantastic things they have achieved. When the lockdown started I was of the mind that we are all in this together and was trying to be supportive of the strategy. But as each day has gone by and I've listened to the confused and ever changing narrative and excuses not to mention clear untruths and like most of the public am int total depair with them.

I remember Dr Julian fell in love with another one called Serena (not the girl pictured), but a mute girl

More to do with Brexit and the culture wars. Tribalism and blind loyalty is something we have sadly imported from America, and we are now just as divided along cultural lines as they are


Trump correctly points out he could shoot someone and his ratings would not go down. He can tell people to inject bleach and his ratings go up!


Boris can preside over a clusterf*ck that leads to more than 50,000 dead and counting, and yet the morons still love him, because of Brexit - this holy grail that the working class have been brainwashed into believing is the new Jerusalem

There needs to be  harder line taken to enforcement and a robust message given by Johnson in this respect on Sunday.
