What does a normal working day look like for you.? Also consider myself a bit of a scientist as I think in you I've just discovered the first form of intelligent life on the hunting life forums. Sorry, didn't mean to be a dick, just some people (who aren't in similar professions) get touchy about it. Sat at my desk figuring out some sort of data normally. Broadly speaking I invent and develop geological measurements using whatever the engineers say they can make in real life. Mostly that means simulations, f***ing about with the data and looking into problems. It's not exciting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If all the government inconsistencies, incompetence aswell as economic and financial destruction that is happening surrounding this whole lockdown, makes sense to you...then there really is nothing they can't do that you won't accept. We ain't seen nothing yet. No mate, you're wrong. Grasping it doesn't depend 'solely' on what we're being told about it on tv by the government. And I certainly don't believe all of it. And there, in your last sentence, looks like you 'might' be grasping it now, we aint seen nothing yet. Especially when there are still people, like that guy atop that crag, etc, potentially putting our stretched emergency services, nhs etc under even more strain. And 'young healthy' people showing no symptoms are, in all probability, more of a danger of passing it on to others. None of us want to be stuck in and restricted, but we're all in the same situation. And like I said above, I certainly don't believe everything that any government is telling us on tv, so I do a bit of my own research to see what I can glean from it all. Infantile, as you called me in one of your earlier posts, I certainly aint. Infantile, is wandering about in this current climate, acting as though it doesn't/won't affect you. And where I've said 'you' the last word last sentence, it was a figure of speech, generalisation. So don't go getting all defensive lol Edited May 1, 2020 by shaaark 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They won’t even tell how many residents have it, an we live miles away from the south where it meant to be worst I had another nephew test positive yesterday Don, cousin of the first lad and my sister brother in law and their son will get their results today. So it's very real from where I'm sitting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Are all the positives symptomatic or being tested as a precaution? Also, how have the first ones fared? I hope they all come right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Both work in the same place born which is where they've picked it up as its going through the place like wildlfire, both had symptoms so got tested first lad is grand and going back to work on Monday and the other is over the worst of it, both had sore joints and skin was sore to the touch but both are strong healthy lads so it was expected they'd come through it OK, the others are getting tested as they've shown mild symptoms and should get their results this afternoon. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The tools they need to do that are finally falling into place. Finally getting the testing to sensible capacity, the RAF are trialling a contact tracing mobile phone app and NHS has breathing space etc etc. Can't hide forever.
