Data from COVID - 19 - Health Part 3

Daily Mail: Reports " UK's coronavirus death toll jumps by 54 to 335 as infections leap 967 - the second highest daily leap since the outbreak began "

Lets Get Real:

The above is the medial FACTS, that is why the UK Government has announced tough restrictions on the UK. The question is how long can you lock down the UK and that goes for the EU as well.  At some point people will just get fed up, they will want to go out, without fearing that they will be fined. They will want to go out the pub or just to meet up with friends. Thus the question, when is enough, enough, there will be a cost either way.   The banning of people going to their favourite pub or to have tea and coffee with their friends can't last for more than a year, the economy will go off a cliff and people will go nuts just being inside.  The Police will soon get fed up telling people to go home or face a fine, so un - British.  Interesting times ahead. 

The NEW Powers by the Police - Health Update 2

Sky News: Reports " Police to hand out fines and most shops to shut as PM locks down UK..The prime minister insists the measures - the toughest seen since wartime - are vital to slow the spread of the disease.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Italians and most of Europe is under lockdown, it will be interesting to see how long British voters will put with these restrictions, they go against what it means to be British, publs closed, not allowed to go out for a walk, and if you do you faced been fined by the Police.  The UK Science community should be working 24/7 for a cure to COVID - 19.  The UK economy will go in to free fall if the lockdown lasts for weeks or months.   The pub industry already in BAD SHAPE, could decline by their thousands.   The question is will the lockdown have any effect, the Italians have been in lockdown for weeks and their death rate has shot through the roof, the same with Spain.   It has been nearly 101 years since the Spanish Flu, the West should have thought something like this would happen, history does tend to repeat itself. 

The UK in Lockdown as of TONIGHT - Health Update 1

BBC News: Reports that PM Boris Johnson has announced that the UK will go in to lockdown, everything will close and people should stay at home with the following exceptions, " From this evening people must stay at home except for shopping for basic necessities, daily exercise, any medical need and travelling to and from essential work.  "

Lets Get Real:

The PM did warn the people, that they either had to stay put or the UK would have to bring in tougher action, and thus tonight PM locked down the UK.   The Police will have a stressful job, they will stop public gatherings, they will be asking drivers of non essential goods what they are doing out, they will be checking on shops to see if they have closed.   The UK has to come together, just because the SUN is out that is no reason to go out, the better the people follow orders then the faster we can beat the virus.  The problem will be the UK economy, can it bounce back after COVID - 19, how many shops or big business will go bust, one can only hope that the UK boffins find a cure to COVID - 19 or we are all in trouble sooner or later.
