Coronavirus: 'Circuit-breaker' should take place during every school holiday, scientists say

He added:"There are many who say if you go in for a lockdown now, how are you going to be able to come out after two weeks, because this virus isn't going to go away?

"This is a really punitive thing to do, to put Britain back in lockdown, even for two weeks, and so I would like to suggest that decision makers actually sort out these problems, rather than say it's too difficult, we can't do it, we've spent a lot of money on it, but it's not working, so we'll have to go back into lockdown."Dr Nabarro also said the UK"has the potential to be absolutely brilliant".

The head of the World Health Organisation's Europe office said the exponential surge of coronavirus cases across the continent has warranted the restrictive measures being taken, calling them"absolutely necessary" to stop the pandemic. He called for countries and their citizens to be"uncompromising" in their attempts to control the virus and said most of the COVID-19 spread is happening in homes, indoor spaces and in communities not complying with protection measures.

If everyone followed the guidance it wouldn’t be necessary. Trouble is a lot don’t and are quite happy with killing the elderly and vulnerable. It’s just a sign of the me me culture . I’m alright Jack I can continue to party not social distance. No personal responsibility

Would make sense to minimise disruption to education, however doesn’t take into account that schools are adding to the spread of the virus by transmitting between pupils and homes 🤷‍♂️ would be better off looking at bettering social distancing in schools

Which mad scientists say that. Absolutely ridiculous. Even the theory that we need more trace and track appear to be rubbished by some very Genius scientists who think you can't control this virus by any other means than simple commonsense approach, HANDS FACE SPACE.

I think that people misunderstand the circuitbreaker as a pause... after which things will pick up again where they left off. They should rather think of the virus as a huge fire, and the two-week intensive lockdown as a removal of oxygen from the air... lockdown CovidUK

Why don't bloody scientists take a circuitbreaker and give us all a bloody break Covid_19 lockdown

I actually thought this was a joke tweet for a moment. HELL NO, Sky.

Why leave out mornings, afternoons and evenings?

Scientists!!

Who are these scientists? Are they agoraphobics, live in Antarctica etc. Why do they keep coming out with all this BS, it’s like they have no idea of the real world
