You’re fucked mate……and without the Chinese too….shocking.

I know quite a few people that have had this one and only 1 claimed to be super rough with it so I fancy your chances
The only thing I’m truly pissed off about is the money I’ll lose from not being at work
No sick pay? Can at least claim statutory sick pay from the government unless that’s changed since I last had to do it

If you’ve got the plague and have to shut yourself away in a lead lined vault or something surely there is financial support ? If there isn’t there bloody well should be. After all it’s not your choice to miss work, is it ? Excuse my ignorance but being retired I haven’t got a handle on the rules. But when my youngest got it and couldn’t work because he had to drop out of the human race for 14 days (he’s self employed) he was eligible for compensation. Not as much as he would have earned of course but at least he got something.

My recommendation is crack open a bottle of Scotland’s finest product and enjoy. ;)

Prof Paul Hunter, professor in medicine at the University of East Anglia, told BBC Breakfast that in time people with Covid should be allowed to "go about their normal lives" as they would with a common cold.

That suggests people could ignore test results and carry on regardless. Which is funny because why take a test - which is most unpleasant anyway - if you feel OK and are going to ignore the outcome. And most people would ignore the outcome, if the choice was pub or stay in doors.

If you feel like I feel then trust me , you wouldn’t feel like going to the pub .

However I get your point and don’t disagree .
