Our first NHS Heroes who gave their lives to protect their fellow British citizens from Covid19:

Amged el-Hawrani
Adel el-Tayar
Habib Zaidi

“Bloody Foreigners”
Remember them for their sacrifice

The Prime Minister has tested positive for Corona virus. He has mild symptoms and will self-isolate in Downing Street. but he will still be in charge of the government's handling of the crisis.

Isn't it a bit weird how everyone now agrees that £94 per week "isn't enough to live on" when the unemployed have been forced to live on £72 per week for the last four years?

Hello. This man’s name was Stanislav Petrov.
Stanislav was a hero, and if you want to – you can be just like him. Let us explain.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

It's not just 'experts' that have been denigrated & derided for years. 'Health & Safety' remains a favourite target of irresponsible columnists; toxic 'nanny state' rhetoric has made many mistrustful of state intervention & public sector workers have been routinely demonised.

From Spain: "I’m watching Sky & seeing Brits by the seaside and in parks. If you have any influence on yr show please send out a warning. It's insane. Our beaches & parks are sealed off & guarded by military. Spain UK curves are comparable. Average Brit needs to wake up. Now.

Johnson explaining his 'stay at home' advice reminds me of Corbyn explaining his Brexit position...

Do we really need to explain to people that going to the pub in Britain in 1941 didn’t actually help Hitler kill British people? And that comparisons with pandemic response strategies are therefore not only very stupid but also very dangerous?

Apparently we do.
So we will.

Took me a while to get this.
But when I did... wow 🤘🏼

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

I just heard Tim Martin, owner of Wetherspoons, say on @SkyNews there has been 'very little transmission of the virus in pubs.'
HOW THE F*CK DOES HE KNOW?
This is insane stupidity from a reckless selfish millionaire putting money before health.
Don't go to Wetherspoons.

This is an excellent episode. So much better without an audience & panellists playing to them. The debate is civilised yet enlightening & Hancock is getting a proper grilling in a non hysterical non partisan manner #bbcqt

This is nuts. Surely lockdown and social distancing for a year would be better, no? As the rest of the world have chosen...

Public Health England: crisis will last 1 year. 80% infected. Up to 7.9 million people hospitalised. Working assumption: 531,000 deaths

[Gary Lineker @GaryLineker]

There’s so much speculation and nonsense on here and on television. Surely it’s time for the government to put out a daily briefing. We’re plodding on in the dark. We need guidance. We need to know the plan. We need a calming influence. We need leadership.

[Ellis @earmstrong91]

Its gonna be a bumpy ride...

[I Am Incorrigible also on Bluesky, threads & masto @ImIncorrigible]

If peak Corona is really three months away, the rest of this year is pretty much screwed.

And then the Brexit transition period ends.

Buckle up, buttercups.

Well put. I have spoken to a few people who think we should flood the population with it to acquire herd immunity (resulting in thousands upon thousands of deaths). Essentially, it comes down to a choice of value: people or money. Any Just society would say people. #Covid_19

[Robert Peston @Peston]

As I have repeatedly mentioned, the view of the chief medical officer Chris Whitty, which has shaped the government’s response to Covid19, is that the virus is the equivalent of unstoppable bad flu...

[Liam Hackett MBE @LiamHALI]

The World Health Organization has announced that dogs cannot contract Covid-19. Dogs previously held in quarantine can now be released. To be clear, WHO let the dogs out.

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

The Danish Parliament has passed a series of emergency laws to deal with Covid. They include:

-authorities able to enter infected person's home without court order.
-prohibition of large gatherings
-possibility of mandatory vaccination
-power to ration food/supplies

Looking ahead, #coronavirus will probably have a severe impact on Euro 2020. Of which most of Englands matches would be in the UK... inc Semi's and Final at Wembley...
