It's so sad to hear that good people died from the virus. I desperately want to get out of this darkness as soon as possible. Everyone in the world is a friend. Cheer up, everyone.

People forgot a healthy 35 year old died in China and more in Italy yet they just say elderley or people with underlying health conditions

I would like the world to know that I practiced Social Distancing before it was Trending.

Chart date "Dec 20 - Feb 20" should be 2021*. Talking to people as we start to set up working from home who think they're going to be doing this for 2 weeks... This is going to last a long time.

If it all goes wrong the government did a fantastic job but the pesky computer programming and modeling was wrong!!!!

If they tested people they would know who was safe to carry on and who was not.

Where I used to work, today I found out from a friend that someone on the line in the factory has a bad cough, but this man wants to soldier on with his shift...he shouldnt be there, but this really IS the mentality of employers who dont take this virus seriously and let people carry on working, while in the company of co-workers. 😡

They should actually test NHS workers who have been in contact with patients who died of the virus. Otherwise doctors and nurses are giving the virus to patients.

My granddaughter has been in contact with somebody who had contact with her boss who tested positive. She then goes to school.

The way a few can manipulate the whole world is difficult to accept 😕

The "science" wasn't new, every other county pointed out it was a pie in the sky plan.

They should just close the schools already tbh it`s too crazy to continue with life normally I go to college and I'm afraid of this virus.

computer simulation is not a fact. with such limited knowledge about virus, it is very dangerous to regard computer simulation as a fact.
