  1. My friend and her son probably had it , but couldn't get tested. This was in UK.

    Another friend in UK said 4 of her friends have it (ie . tested as having it). She said only normally tested if you are high risk or hospitalised. In my view you need to do massive testing to control it and also massive antibody testing in anyone recovered / think they have recovered from it. Only then can you control it and get useful data to see how it spreads.

  2. As of 2pm today they were still open and plan on being for the near future. There are shoppers but not too many , easy to keep 2m apart !!

    Rimping very sparse this morning , maybe only 5-6 other shoppers in there. Personally I would rather go where there are fewer people so at the moment avoiding Makro/Big C etc.

    Eh yes they are doing a far better job in Germany. Far lower death ratio to cases. I guess their healthcare hasnt been stripped like in the UK. 

     

    Sobering to see the difference between Germany and the UK. Far more cases in Germany but a far lower death rate. UK 8.077 cases 422 deaths, Germany 32.991 and 159  deaths. UK seems to do it similar to Netherlands 5.560 and 276 deaths. 

     

    Looks like Germany is doing a great job UK and Netherlands not so much. 

     

    Possibly there are more tests done in Germany, but again that shows they are doing it better then both UK and Netherlands.

     

     

    Friends of mine that work in the health service in Germany are being tested for the virus every single day when they arrive at work. Doesn't seem to be like that in the UK!

    2 meter spacing impossible in there

    Darn sight easier than 7/11 !!

     

    No one in 7/11 but I had to detour around the back because I didn't want to have to go through the cluster of unoccupied employees between me and the fridge. Then when paying for the item I bought she wanted me to put cash on desk and she took from desk. But , but that is useless if the cash has the virus! Just like the Buddhist temple, can't hand directly to the monk !!  :wacko:

  5. I noticed they have got the tape out in places that will stay open. Banks are one of these but we will also be remaining 2 metres apart at the 7/11 ! However I did notice their tape strips looked somewhat less than 2 metres!

     

    Kasem store near the day market will remain open (I just asked them).
