It is always going to be a false rate, as there's nowhere near 100% testing, and we know for an absolute fact that a high proportion of those infected show little or no symptoms. Eminent experts in the field of epidemiology have stated their belief that in the UK there are many multiples of people infected in relation to the official figures.
My mum & dad are now self isolating. My dad especially idxs social creature, out at the club 3 or 4 nights a week for a game of dominoes or snooker and a good craic with his pals (all similarly 70+). In addition, the pair of them won't now be having our two daughters once a week after school, instead just dropping them off here to wait till Mrs S gets home on her 'full day'. And also the pair of them are stopping their trips to places like M&S, Dunelm, garden centres for a coffee (just to get out the house for a couple of hours).
I personally think this lack of social interaction will kill my dad especially quicker than Covid-19.
I hate this.
I think this
