Want to know what's going on? UK cases are at least 10 X times what are reported, so are deaths. UK is going into complete lockdown in 7 to 10 days. Schools will all get 4 weeks Easter holiday at least. All elderly and immune compromised people will be asked to self isolate for 4 months. Private hospitals to be paid for bed use by NHS. Production of ventilators etc ramped up to maximum.

Isolate at first symptoms, all people in that household to self isolate at the same time.

I found this information helpful and positive. It is from a respiratory and acute medicine specialist consultant with direct experience of COVID-19 who works in Northwick Park, a large hospital north west of London.

“ Hi everyone

Just want to say – I’ve seen quite a few people with Covid 19 since Sunday.  The vast majority are fine.  They seem to have one week of fever, a few days of dry cough and then sometimes breathlessness on day 8 or 9.  

“ Most people are fine to stay at home and recover in about 10 days.  If it is going to be bad it is around day 9 or 10 and the breathlessness gets rapidly worse at that point.  

“ We have had five patients who needed ITU but they all have heart or lung disease, and are quite elderly.  Thankfully children seem to be invincible.
 
“ I’ve never known anything like this – but we’re planning for huge numbers of people needing intensive care and working out how to cope.  

“ We’ve managed to segregate our whole hospital into unknown (in single rooms), positive and negative areas.  We’ve moved a whole intensive care unit and 4 other wards in 3 days flat – this sort of change usually takes at least 6 months to get agreed!
 
“ I think we need to worry about our elderly relatives but not our age group or our kids.  It seems pretty clear that a large proportion of the UK will get this, hopefully spread out over months rather than all at once like Italy.  

“ Once enough people have had it then herd immunity will mean it dies out.  So if the frail elderly can hibernate for a few months hopefully we can keep mortality down.”
