The hailstorm that's currently battering BN1 should help with the social distancing 
I find this oncologist fella’s twitter both a realistic and reassuring read. Positive and constructive. The opposite of the entire rest of Twitter right now, basically.

My wife and I were walking along a deserted road on our way to buy some groceries from the local store about a mile away.
Walking towards us I spied a lady wearing a BHAFC bobble hat! I shouted “Seagulls!” and we had a brief chat (.....from a very safe distance apart).
Turns out that, like me, she and her husband are STHs at the Amex, and we live less than ½ a mile apart.
We were literally the only 4 people on a 1 mile stretch of deserted road. What were the odds of that happening in Stratford-upon-Avon, 155 miles away from the Amex?!
Made my day.

Nice bit of positivity from our eldest on the 'front line'..............

If it was not cold today, she would not have been wearing her bobble hat and you would never have known..

The percentage change of increase is diminishing.
Yet they have our lockdown date nearly a week wrong?
Do they?
Thank you and yes it does seem good news. An 86 year old local lady has survived from having the virus as well but cannot find the link now.
They have it as today, if we’re the burgundy line? It was nearly a week ago now.

Mayor of NYC just announced that anybody needing medical treatment related to Covid 19 will be treated regardless of immigration status or ability to pay. This will take away a lot of stress and anxiety from people in that situation. A lot of New Yorkers will be more than happy for their tax dollars to go towards this.

It doesn't appear to have have a star on the UK line. It shows one above us for Germany's line. Not sure why they haven't put one on the UK's line, perhaps it's not considered a lockdown like other countries?
