People flocking to supermarkets in their hundreds.

Hardly a good idea considering the advice given  ::)

I was down the town it's absolutely mental here, apparently the guards were called to Lidl earlier. I met the local milk agent and he said it was way worse than the time of the snow. No milk or bread to be got

Why are people reacting like this. It's irrational.
As an oul timer round here once said about another matter  "it's because they can't put it into their oul computers and get the answer".

What is the obsession with people buying bog roll?
Plenty of dock leaves around which will do the job if we do run out of toilet roll, or just stick a shower hose onto your arse if need be.

Why are the experts in the UK any different to the experts in Italy, Spain, Denmark, Ireland or China?

Experts have said the UK is on the same trajectory as Italy.

Just because experts are the it doesn't mean he has to take their advice.

We don't need to model what will happen if you don't get drastic quick.

Just look at Lombardy.



[and as someone with a background in modelling, with so little known about COVID-19, no model, unless by astronomical fluke, is going to be anything like close to the mark.]
