Working from Home

[geoffbot]

Sorry mate,got to disagree. Having no children leaves you very impoverished.

Enjoy the cigars though.

Impoverished?! Financially?!

[simwells]

Some strong words being used here, if you want kids great enjoy it, if not enjoy life without.

Each to their own, no one answer for all, we'd all be fucked if we all decided to do one or the other!

keep calm.... have a cigar!

although all this working from home may have an impact on birth rate.... perhaps more Xmas babies on the way!!

nursery fees at 600 quid a month + everything else...if that didnt have to be paid thats some serious cad satisfied! but would i change it? not a chance! each to their own. life takes us all in different directions.

To be fair i think i would like a good night sleep more than anything else!

On a cheerful note, my youngest son's friend is an NHS doctor who says we are two weeks behind Italy. Make sure you have enough cigars for self isolating!

The reason people are hoarding toilet roll is that when one person coughs a hundred shit themselves

True but most people should be just slightly ill apparently

For 85% nothing more than a bad cold. All blown seriously out for proportion imo.
Still it should all suit the snowflake generation .

On BBC news Wednesday they had 3 people ' suffering' from the virus concerned about loss of earnings etc , they all seemed perfectly normal and at worst had the sniffles and a cough.
It's going to seriously hurt the global economy and there will be lots of malingering and 14 days self isolation lol

And the other 15%? It really is not blown out of proportion.

Well that's the good thing about a democracy, the freedom for self opinion.

Indeed, although the medical evidence we have so far suggests this is not being blown out of proportion.

Just short of 5000 deaths so far since end of Jan. Nearly 60 million die every year or just under 2 per second. But obviously other than old age all the other causes of deaths are acceptable and dont warrant isolation and panic buying .[emoji6]

Its not about the total number of deaths so far, its about the potential should it spread. The suggested mortality rate is around 1% for this thing, so if spreads to 80% of the population... well you do the maths. And if your older than 60 your chances of dying increase significantly. We see in Italy already beds in ICU are being rationed and they had much more spare capacity in the system than we do.
