It is nice to hear that some people are keeping the right distance. I went shopping a few of weeks ago and hardly anyone kept away. There was an old couple being rather slow and so I waited for them but several people pushed past. Decided that was the end, so now have everything delivered.
People in my town are very good at distancing but come the weekend, the tourists arrive and they have no idea what 2 metres means. They walk about in large groups taking up the entire pavement. I ask people if it is the widts h of a single bed or the length and they invariably say the width if they say anything polite.
I do not know how they manage in schools here. They isolated one year group, but but a large % of them are then bussed home in a different group.
There are still very few cases here. I still do not know anyone who has tested positive. Nearest I have got is my daughter knows someone who knows someone. My husband had an accident on holiday and ended up in the hospital in Lancaster, so she ducked out of a work meeting just in case. And one of them have been in the same building as someone who had it. So rather than taking it she avoided having to isolate. But they did find out just how bad the Lake District is for medical provision.
Swindon have taken over the private part of the hospital, separate entrance and single rooms, so they have managed to isolate it well and kept the rest running.
The Royal Ag Uni have put up our numbers. I really do not know why they did not insist that all the student isolated for two weeks before they arrived.
They should have started the lockdown on the day it was announced, people seem to have gone mad for four days. The numbers are still rising here.
There seem to be children going into shops here during the day, presume when they are sent home from school the parents then taken them shopping.
