I rang my pharmacy up to ask if I could have my prescription delivered, since I'm immunocompromised, but no dice - their deliverers are fully stretched already. So I'm going to be rationing my pills a bit. I hope pharmacies are planning to expand their delivery services though, it would be better for just about everyone.

Are family/friends not allowed to collect on your behalf (assuming you call in ahead)?

Thanks pals, I actually have a lot of disposable gloves left over from my father's long illness so that's sorted. Don't count on delivery - most pharmacy delivery services are just part-time anyway and there are a lot of restrictions on who out of the pharmacy staff can drop things off to people. e: for almost everything that isn't supervised consumption though, friends/family/neighbours can absolutely collect on your behalf so long as they know your name, address, DOB and whether you pay for your prescriptions or not ok off to work whee

peanut- posted:The thing about London is that most of those people that pour through those stations every day actually have completely pointless jobs at the business factory. Everyone can collectively give up the pretence for a while and it doesn't really matter. Hey don't get me wrong, I might work in a factory but 90% of my work is busy work decreed by a manager that has no idea what actually happens here.

Egypt has just increased all bundle quotas by 20% for free to encourage people to stay at home more. (Unlimited internet is still a luxury for many and not to say that the service is great).

Tesseraction posted:My Egyptian colleague mentioned something about a Dragon last week? What was that about? They had horrendous rain flooding and so on. The Cairo ring road (equivalent of say M25) waist deep in water on parts. They don't have roadside drainage like we do so roads were turning into rivers. Lots of electrical fires and so on because much is open to the elements. The climate has been noticeably changing (to my eyes) over the last 10 years or so. They called it the dragon storm.

Haringey report: went to local bakery and Tesco metro and no signs of panic or stockpiling. Loads of people as usual. I had my spray bottle of bleach and a cloth with me, nobody seemed to take notice as I wiped down everything before packing it. Bought a poo poo tonne of dark chocolate to make brownies and eat with whisky.

Junior G-man posted:We've got a fresh and topical episode out today! We talk about Corona with an Actual Knowledge Haver so we don't sound nearly as stupid as we normally do and then chat about how Number is doing. Honestly, it's a good one! Listening now, is the cartoon you were trying to recall "Once upon a time... Life"? Just found it's on Netflix. I'm cancelling the holiday I was supposed to be staying on Friday (originally tomorrow) to Singapore, they are issuing stay home orders. Dad is supposed to be going to Egypt next week which I guess looks dubious.

Outside the tourist season, everyone in Cornwall is old, so I think lots of us may be in the same boat - I wonder how telling the over-70s to self isolate will work? They all have regular prescriptions.

Also if your father doesn't look Egyptian, western friends who have lived there years beginning to have the 'its all the forins fault' experience (not helped by one of the first 2 deaths being a German tourist). It's not only the UK that has racist gammons - video of an oriental guy trying to get a taxi ride and very nasty reactions from drivers. Apologies for crap typing am on phone and on moving coach. Ed.

In my block (over 55s) there is me (60 next month and glad I discouraged family from organising a party), another woman 65, and the other 17 flats are all well in their 70s or 80s. One of them is 102. I rather think I will be called upon to assist. Most of them have no internet either.

Instead of sending people to WFH my office is currently moving half the people in one department's workspace to another and vice-versa, to 'protect both departments in case one area of the building gets hit hard' Good thing definitely none of these people are infected right!
