Report your husband's company to the council/government/police and they will be forced to close. Disgusting behaviour on their part putting profits before health
I’m confused. I though factories could stay open regardless of it they are essential or not? I thought the advice was if you can work from home, do. If not, your company has to ensure social distancing?
 
On the one hand, had to do an Aldi run for the in-laws today and was pleasantly surprised. Got everything or a fair substitition and that should put them on for about 10 days until I shop for us and get some veg for them at the same time (we eat a lot more frozen and tinned).

On the other, my partner's best mate's dad has it and has been in hospital for a week now with no encouraging news. Been no visitors for a few days at that particular Trust, but they are thinking of relaxing it a little bit for definite end-of-life - so don't really want to get the phonecall saying they can see dad. Not sure if our mate and his mum can go up though? It was diagnosed as pneumonia at first and his mum and dad live together/they were all up visiting at the bedside with no protection, so they could have it now. So we're worried that they get told it's coming to the end but have to stay isolated at home.
 
Worried about not being able to get an online shop with proof I'm vulnerable. I might only have asthma & mental health issues but I have relied on this way for years as have many in my village as we don't have anywhere to shop. At my worst I never left my house for 8 weeks & it was a lifeline to me. I hate the stigma that I might look okay but I rarely feel it.

Where abouts are you?

That’s right I work for a manufacturing firm even though it’s non essential we can stay open if we can keep the social distancing.
 
its just hit me that 812 deaths is a “positive“
its 2020 and 812 deaths in one day is a positive.

we’re all gonna come out of this really kinda broke and really kinda fucked up aren’t we 😐
I recommend @markfrancois12 on twitter, he's doing a plague diary, like a gone wrong Pepys, it's the best thing on twitter, and a relief from the relentless bad news.
 
I think we’re obviously gonna see a spike in the numbers once they start accounting for the very sad home deaths.
i just really hope that what we’re doing is enough to keep this peak flattening out, whilst the number of deaths is a little blurred we have to be positive that the rate of hosp admission IS v slowly dropping, that can’t really be tweaked so I hope that’s something good for the moment.

we just have to wait and see if the covidiots on the weekend before lockdown did more damage than good 🤞🏻😞

If it’s anything like the business we work for as long as the company still have the orders and can fulfil them they can’t do the retention scheme, at present non essential factories can open if they practice social distancing.
 
Just going to leave this here............. also from Australia :ROFLMAO:
