Coronavirus.

Zoomup
We have been advised not to go to pubs and restaurants, cinemas and other public places, to protect ourselves and others from the Coronavirus. Are we still able to work? Can we still obtain stock? Will we continue to visit workplaces like offices, shops or homes? Will we be provided  with fiscal support if we can not trade, especially if we are self employed?


University College London is predicting up to 250,000 potential fatalities from Coronavirus in the U.K.


How does the pandemic affect you?


Whaddaufink?

    There is a danger of believing these suggested possible worst case figures will actually happen. The BBC and ITV are both in total panic mode, and one needs to be very careful of exaggeration as this is very bad for peoples mental health. This danger cannot be under estimated. Twelve or more weeks of total isolation, apart from TV rubbish, is likely to have very severe effects for a long time to come particularly on those already unwell or vulnerable medically. I suggest a few good discussions about other things on the IET websites are an excellent medicine!
