Why has it taken so long for the penny to drop ? By the time the pandemic has passed and we have buried the casualties, we will be ready to fight a pandemic .... the next one ? But no good for MSM , who thrive on chaos and crisis.

The kit our doctors and nurses need in ICU is the same as in Naples! full waterproof suits with gasmasks attached to visor within suit. In north italy lots of doctors ill. None in Naples due to full defensive suits and controls

I am worried about the amount of volunteers/pickers, there are farms who will lose all of their produce if the Government doesn't initiate a plan to save our food. They really need to get ahead of this. Farmers UK Volunteers Food
