Seven days. You isolate until it's sure the virus has run its course. The others isolate for the incubation period to make sure they don't have it too.

Government advice if self isolating is thats it ok to go outside and exercise if youre avoiding people and keeping 6 ft away. Is this correct or the same bad science that tells them that we should aim to infect 80% of the population? I want to cardio as itll help the immune system, but not if it poses any risk to people.

Waitrose (I know, I know, wall) near me is loving packed at the moment, lots of people going around not quite panicking but very close. Lots of fresh fruit and veg/ freezable stuff though, so I was able to pick up some quorn mince that can technically last till the end of April and that I can make into spag bol if I need it.

Due to it being the only loaf on the shelf. I just had a Warbertons fruit loaf, corned beef and tomato sauce sandwich for dinner. It was ace and the sultanas really complemented the tomato.

Starting to feel like I should have been a little more proactive in registering with a GP practice within walking distance, rather than continuing to go to the one on the other side of town and just getting the bus over whenever I needed supplies of minor luxuries like, say, antidepressants and estrogen

zhar posted:Should I cancel my dentist appointment next week? The fact that the dentist breathes over peoples faces all day seems pretty risky, but I don't know when this ends and I'd be able to get an appointment in the future. I don't know if they take extra precautions now. I was worried about going, but a friend of my wife is a dental nurse and reassured me that - of all of these types of places, dentists practice by far the best hygiene purely because they're basically always rooting around in people's mouths. The hygienist wore a clear plastic mask (kind of like a welding mask, but clear) so she wasn't able to breathe on me or anything, and vice versa. You'll be fine.

Thanks for the support during my wobble the other day. Trip report from the West End: yesterday's afternoon rehearsal turned into a meeting with the producer/theatre owner, who was all on board the government advice train, reasoning that if the scientists said it was ok, then we should keep going. People objected, not on self-preservation grounds so much as "is it responsible of us as actors to invite people to form a crowd". We split off into Equity/Bectu/MU meetings to discuss, but any outcome was preempted by Boris' press conference (which we played over the PA, ugh). So we are officially shut down, and I'm on a Eurostar home - given that it's a global pandemic, I shouldn't feel relieved and guilty to be leaving the UK, but that's Toryism I guess. As mentioned, theatre is full of actual, legitimate freelancers who are going to be totally screwed by this. The theatres themselves at risk. I really don't know what our sector will look like on the other side of this. Now I'm going home to be with my cat for as long as his health allows. He shall not be allowed to suffer, but I'm glad I can see him again

A: Why, my parents' house on the other side of town, of course! Call me Captain Reasonable Choices

Sainsbury's was disgusting today. Plenty of fresh food but everything that could last more than a week or so is wiped out. Not to mention toiletries. One woman was shovelling the last 10 tins of chopped tomatoes into her basket despite multiple members of staff basically shouting at her to put them back and stop being so selfish. Utterly ignored. gently caress all of these people and thank gently caress for the patience of heroic supermarket staff this week. They should each come out of this with massive bonuses (lol).

quote:Even Tories are talking to me about the probable need for a temporary universal basic income, to get round all that confusion of which welfare payments kick in to whom, and to save many younger people in particular falling through the existing state safety net. Tories, upon finally realising their voting base is dying off, blindside Labour by going hardcore into leftwing nationalisation and monetary policy. They win in 2025 with an increased majority.

We bulk buy huge bags of flour to make our own sourdough because we're insufferable hipsters but it's all looking pretty good for right now. We've got enough to bash out about 30 loaves just now. Bringing forwards our planting plans slightly, doing a bit more indoors so we have fresh salad.
