  1. Well, we all prevent to avoid it. My friends are mostly educated and smart and lived in rural area. They all active but cautioned. My county got 14k my state 136k more then some countries.
    I’m very self discipline person. I’m glad you got it and it was relatively easy. How’s your mom doing, tell her my best regards and she got great son. Do you have brothers, sisters?

    I think it's not something you can avoid, it'll ruin your life so much in trying to doing so, not that there is anything to do during lockdown it's just too much of a waste of time. You don't get time back sadly.

    Mom and Dad not had it or had symptoms.

    Sister had it moderatly bad, pulled a stomach muscle from all the coughing.

    GF's mom 73, same trip GF got it from, must of had no symptoms.

    13year old, GF's sister kid had it bad cough, 3 other in the house no symptoms.

    My Kid and her BF who was living at mine had it, her just fever, he had he annoying cough aswell.

    All of my mates except 2 I think have had it, they both locked themselves away very early on, or they've had with no symptoms, there both no lifers so sitting at home watching TV is perfect for them.

    Been around most who have had it at the time, so if I hadn't of had it I should of since.

    I'll risk my life in a bit, on the mountain bike racing around the local hills at night when it cools down a bit, climbing mountains as soon as I think I can get away with a 210mile round trip.

    Before I had C19 I didn't class it as a risk, despite being 49, fat, 2 mild heart attacks, mild asthma and high blood pressure.

  7. Does the UK usually have this many deaths from a so called “bad virus” in a couple of months or less? Are yu quite sure it is just a bad virus and weeks from being over?

    No ofcourse not! ( Bad flu where the vaccine failed )

    Has the lockdown made any difference? NO

    You realise people die, 10,000 per week normally with a similar age spread.

    You realise 2000per week are dying because of the lockdowns

    You realise the damage done mentally to millions

    You realise foot shortages 120,000,000 forecast to die this year in the west.

    You realise your in the west and that's a much bigger number.

    You realise millions have become unemployed.

    You realise businesses are bankrupted

    You realise all of this for a lockdown which is saving nobody.

    Compare to Sweden to see lockdown doesnt work.

    Moto change released from Stay Home Save Lives to Stay Alert Save Lives, announcement later not getting hopes up.

    Day trader doesnt effect me, not like I've stayed home, shops, gym, pubs and cinema is what i want back open.


    Not to sure how staying alert helps, something to make the plebs think they have control.
