People are at home because they're employers have told them to be, not because they're taking this seriously.

Had to go and pick up my dad's prescription today as they're self-isolating due to showing symptoms and it was as busy if not slightly more busy than any other day i've been out during the working week.
Really surprised me as i handn't left the house since Wednesday last week and assumed that many other people were taking the same precautions based on advice...
I'm not sure "fuck all" is how the businesses collapsing would put it. There is very clear evidence that the current recommendations are having a profound impact. Whether it will be enough to prevent a lockdown akin to what we're seeing on the continent? I'd guess no.
