Chat about Novel Coronavirus - 2019-nCoV - COVID-19

shirley that seems the most sensible thing to do right now.

But it means the people that chance it get to have all the fun. Tragedy of the commons style.

at what point do you just say to yourself:
"y'know what, all these guidelines and tiers and what not have been arrived at by a shower of utter know-nothings who have routinely ignored science - maybe it's best if i just stay the fuck indoors and away from anyone, at least until such time as a provable improvement can be observed."

Like @Brommers “don’t be a dick” rules?

(I 100% empathised on this).

The way I worked it: Low risk (cinema/bus/shop with mask on derr/eating with seated people only/drinking outside at our local in good old windy Belfast): OK
Parties indoors/weddings etc.. :Nope.

Problem is if we all stay in, even more jobs are lost. As let's face it, the government help has been poor for too many sectors. We both still have our jobs.

BUT if you are near somebody who must be shielding, even that may be too much of a risk.

Pretty much what we have been doing with only a small handful of exceptions.
