More bad news !!

[Francisco]

..it is all needless panic...whatever happened to "keep calm and carry on?"..
People will not drop dead in the streets, most of the infected will just have to go to bed for a couple of days..
..this is panic amongst our leaders, who want to be seen to be doing something, and they are being led by scientists and experts who cannot bring themselves to admit it will not decimate the human race!!
If the lockdown continues for a month, the people will simply rebel and ignore the restrictions and the authorities..they will take to the streets if neccessary!!...

..and at that point, as if by a miracle...the" powers that be "will declare, the virus has peaked and we can start to return to normal life!!
