Hopefully those flouting the rules will be the ones to pay for it. There is very clear evidence that viral load is key- so the more infected people who are together or repeated exposure will increase their likelihood of Severe illness or death. Asymptomatic carriers can shed viruses for days before they get ill. So these people who keep going out and about can’t have any complaints if they get seriously ill.I've been hearing a fair few stories or evidences of travel that doesn't seem to be essential. That is why I would guess that 50% of the population are still not entirely adhering to the govts stipulations.
Maybe this word essential needs to be clearly clarified in detail or the word changed. Soon if we are not careful it will need changing to is it life or death?
God i feel embarassed Peter , in 1990 my mortgage was £1620 a month , and i had 2 kids and an expensive first wife to feedMy take home in 1990 was £116.00 per week... and I still managed to by a house too... £14k.
Can you please explain simply, why there are no masks. I mean right now why is there a shortage, is it delivery problems, lack of manufacturing facilities, incompetence, there must be a root cause. And I don’t mean lack of foresight, no one had that and understandable. But what exactly is the bottle neck, right now.Give staff masks and stop them dying
Well should people 'pay for it'?Hopefully those flouting the rules will be the ones to pay for it.

One of the only good things about living in a s h i t old mill town ib the NW... You can still buy a house there for sub £50k and not a ruin (well only just).God i feel embarassed Peter , in 1990 my mortgage was £1620 a month , and i had 2 kids and an expensive first wife to feed
In Asda this morning it was chaos , they were controlling the queue outside , people were behaving well , keeping apart , arrows on the floor nobody took any notice of inside the shop but if they had followed the route set out like they were on a railway line the queue outside would've been a mile long by the time somebody decided which sausages they wanted and moved on.Hopefully those flouting the rules will be the ones to pay for it.

Oh the Bedford Midi , for a couple of months I worked for a courier company , I started at 11am , I knew the ******* midi would be the only thing left , it was awful , i dont know if it was just because theirs was ******* outMy 2nd full time job starting out in the IT world was in 1993/1994 I think after a few years at my dad's business was as a Trainee Apple Engineer on £6500pa. After 3 months I even got a Bedford Midi van to use
My daughter has said same, she has a 12 week contract with Tesco, she does picking for home delivery, but now she’s starting at 4am to minimise interaction with public...buy tbf she did says it’s the odd person....and they tend not to be young, or as on Friday, full family going shopping, parents and 2 teenage kids, she said she scurried away to another aisle to avoid....In Asda this morning it was chaos , they were controlling the queue outside , people were behaving well , keeping apart , arrows on the floor nobody took any notice of inside the shop but if they had followed the route set out like they were on a railway line the queue outside would've been a mile long by the time somebody decided which sausages they wanted and moved on.
Staff were filling shelves mingling with the customers , aisles were only about 2.5m wide so maintaining a 2m gap was impossible
They kept announcing stay away from the staff , follow the arrows but nobody listened.
I couldn't wait to get out of there , the staff must be at a high risk of contracting it
It’s So hard to explain. It’s only these last 3 weeks of getting increasingly frustrated trying To help prepare. We are dealing with the slowest moving , most beaurocratic centralised and historically penny pinching system (the nhs)- when we need a military fast moving response. The amount of people you need to ask to order anything is incredible. You can read 1000 online reports of all over the world where it’s the same problem. China makes Most of them, most countries are stockpiling them and there is a fight for resources. Its like munitions in a war. Essentially I think there are centralised stocks- but there are local distribution issues and there isn’t enough on the front line which is affecting staff morale and encouraging fear.Can you please explain simply, why there are no masks.

Ok, you have said there are centralised stocks, so the short term problem is distribution ? WTF!It’s So hard to explain.
