    Thank you @shiney and @ARMANDII
    I'm fine at the moment but they're occasions when i think that i need to go there or to give an update on some medication but i can do that over the phone. They did send me a email of what they were doing about appointments and that they would be open for the morning. But didn't know about the PPE situation.

    It's best to look at the new infections in stead of deaths.

      Much more relevant, but how do they collect those, bearing in mind the tests only get the ones that turn up for a test.

      Can only have a test if they have the symptoms or they're the front line workers. Don't know anything else about it.

          Rate of death / mortality per 100k is the standard approach though

            Good afternoon loads of people locally all sunbathing in the parks and lots of traffic on the roads:dunno:

            It could be because Virgin Media TV ect is down and they have no TV to watch;)

                They only included the people that are in care homes because the carers complained about it.

                  It might be the standard approach but it's about 3 weeks behind what is actually happening, bearing in mind some of those dying probably caught it up to a month ago.

                  I see that Nicola has extended lock down for the Scots - she's made lots of silly decisions - this isn't one of them.

                  I wonder what Boris will say on Sunday?

                  The North Wales old bill stopping people from Cumbria, Leicester and London - and sending them home straight away. Every one here is sticking to the lock down - we don't want all our hard work to be for nowt because some numpties don't understand how serious the situation is. I still say increase fines massively for breaking lock down.

                      I think its pretty obvious what's going on, on the day the Bank of England start saying things, then a slight slackening of the lockdown on the way, probably go back to work, but stay 6 ft apart.:biggrin:
                      Wear a mask and gloves and wash your hands twenty times a day, dont touch anybody, and most of all, dont enjoy yourself.
                      Anyone seen laughing will be arrested.;)

                      The money has run out folks.:biggrin:
