Guayaquil, Ecuador's second city, appears to have been badly hit by the virusPeru has followed Panama in imposing new quarantine measures
based on gender that mean men and women are allowed out of their homes on alternate days. Men can leave home on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays; women can do so on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. No-one is allowed out on Sundays.'s President Jair Bolsonaro said a lockdown of two or three months would cause"massive unemployment". He's been widely criticised for urging Brazilians to ignore quarantine measures imposed by most state governors.
Unless your Dominic Cummings, and don’t fancy isolating in London. Or it’s your wife’s birthday, or you want to drive to a castle to make sure your not blind.
Before self isolation😂its predictable i guess.
If get Coronavirus I will sue every authority that didn't control the spread of the Epidemic or Pandemic, luckily I'm insured for death!!!
It’s not a request yeah I’ll see about that today when I go out and have a massive bbq with my friends 😂
Disperse crowds. Issue warnings. Have a military presence if necessary. Closing parks is unfair on the poorest in this country. They have no gardens or balconies & small homes. Ineffective communication has been a key failure of No. 10.
No. 10 lack of specificity & not answering the question clearly. Say: '- No picnics. - We will close parks if you do. - Stay home, go out only if essential, - short periods of exercise ok & ensure social distancing.' Spell it out. Not everyone is smart or understands.
Can anyone explain to me why people should not have their daily exercise at a beauty spot? If they all have their exercise walking the streets of their neighbourhood, they are far more likely to spread or catch the virus.
People are not adhering to your advice! I’ve seen people literally brushing shoulders today, no social distancing at all. This govt ‘urging’ people to do the right thing, is not working!!!
Maybe you should put tighter lockdown in place as still so many unnecessary workers going to work putting lives at risk. Why are we letting construction industry work on unnecessary work. England is the only place allowing this & putting hundreds of thousands of lives at risk!
Hello people, you can make that as an instruction to your self, love your self first, kindly bear with the few that have been put up for your safety, after that things will get to normal and be able to move the way you could leave your life before, we love you, thank you
bbc5live When my daughter joined the NHS I never thought I would see her dressed like this. If you ignore the guidelines, please don't bother clapping outside your front door next week, because she really can't stand hypocrisy. And she may be the last face you see when your lungs pack in.
bbc5live Matt Hancock on BBCQuestionTime on Thursday - 'If you want to take a drive to walk your dog, that's fine'. On Friday - 'Stay at home'. What's clear about that? coronavirus
well that wont work then after you allowed those freaks who shout about civil liberties and human rights cos for once they have to do as they are told and stay in, to basically chastise the police for doing their jobs, so now they can't.
BBCWalesNews Our neighbours have had more visitors again this evening, thats twice this week. Bring in the army stop these selfish arseholes.
Advice is a choice, not an instruction. Instruction should be we all stay indoors, unless for absolutely necessary travel.
When is this stupidity going to stop , it time the government actually did something instead of keeping us prisoners in our own homes , creating a police state and burying their heads in the sand hoping the virus will go away😡
Instruction, you imbecile? Let's talk about how many ventilators you have delivered of what was promised, and how many NHS personnel still remain untested! Why is he still not fired?!
There are a lot of stupid people in this country.
Well said, mate.
bbc5live Millions of people are still working on non essential jobs or doing non essential things under the guise of being key workers. Why ?
Look on the bright side .. when everyone goes out, and passes it round itll cleanse the planet...
The limpest possible speech: we've had more walkers on the footpath than at any time in the year today. They could not care less, not least as there is zero consequence if they do go out. MattHancock
Are we allowed out for essentials and 1hr of excersie or not. I'm getting confused people keep saying stay indoors every time u go out you're risking someone's life, so now i feel godamned awful picking up my prescription
About time MattHancock Not your fault but should have been drafted as a regulation or law from the start. Police need power as well as authority.
BBCHughPym They have been place for weeks. How are you going to measure whether it’s been effective Remember “ no testing “. So what’s your benchmark
BBCHughPym So important everyone does as they’re told
BBCHughPym Oh fab, Peston asking about testing again - obviously wants a return match with the Deputy CMO 😂😂
BBCHughPym I see the media have not improved their level of question and anti UK efforts from channel4 and channel5_tv who seem to think all countries doing a better job,wake up. Is the cost of trials really important right now
BBCHughPym Hugh missed a chance, only 30 due to arrive this week after Gove said there will be 100's this week. Is this was untrue why did he not call this out?
BBCHughPym He didnt answer the question, from his reply. Its going to be later and I think we're in for a very hard month. Keep safe, keep your distance..
BBCHughPym I’m beginning to wonder if the journalists asking these questions are bothering to read other released information before formulating their questions?
BBCHughPym BBC should be telling people not to worry about their direct debits for the tv licences so that they can feed their families rather than trying to belittle the government who are doing their upmost best at this time of uncertainty .
BBCHughPym So we'll know next week if the lockdown has worked
BBCHughPym
BBCHughPym
This is a global thing not just a scottish or english
Shame some idiots where I live aren’t listening to the advice and putting people at risk We seriously need police around here to put them in their place
PLEASE please please stop journalists asking the same, unanswerable questions every day. “Unprecedented” means it’s never happened before and nobody knows what is going to happen next. Why can’t they grasp that? bbclaurak Peston bbc itv SkyNews Channel4News channel5_tv
So calm and collected. Why knowing is better than guessing
BBCPolitics Really You mean they’re NOT determined to find ineffective treatments! Good thinking! Keep the trite, meaningless cliches coming (hint; tell them you’re ‘ramping up’ research👍). useless torytool
BBCPolitics Already on hydroxychloroquine for RA but stlill shit scared of catching it
BBCHughPym If only a thousand people have, or have had, Covid-19, for every death, only about 6% of the UK population has caught it so far! Great question from Peston! BBC, up your game!
BBCHughPym What a waste of a question. Let’s cut to the weather... 🙄
bbc5live We get the advice but it's all very stiff upper lip British. People will still going out especially if the weather warms up! Time for a firmer Rhetoric? Unless you have a valid reason for being out fines to be issued by Police? Zerotollerance StayHomeSaveLives
Does this revert the advice to leave for shopping. By instruction are police powers being given? Clear as mud Hancock
I think it's absolutely right that the DNR question is raised. No tine for sugar coating death now People should have to fill it out on licence applications or when they register with a GP. IT SHOULD BE A CHOICE NOT BLOODY LOGANS Run!
Can you and your reporters be a bit more imaginative when asking questions on the daily Downing St announcement. I think they have made it clear they don’t know when the virus cases will peak. I’m pretty sure you will ask the same question tomorrow!!
BBCHughPym Get Diane Abbott to answer this . She’s great at maths 👌
BBCHughPym so about now?
BBCHughPym
BBCHughPym Dumb questioning again
BBCHughPym Have we reached peak epidemic?
BBCHughPym The entire world is on life support
BBCHughPym
Islam has the Five Pillars of Faith the Tory party has the Five Pillocks of covid19UK - Johnson, Hancock, Gove, Patel and Cummings.
JvT is great!
Does that mean everyone?
Says a man who self isolated and still went on national tv!
Oh no not peston again can we have someone else PLEASE
StayhomeDontbeselfishwankers
Very impressed with Matt Hancock 👏👏
People aren’t listening MattHancock In the first 15 mins of this briefing 18 people have walked past my window. At least 2 sets of 2 people I know for a fact don’t live together. Friends meeting to walk dogs together. More measures ASAP. govtbriefing Briefing_COVID19
DON'T BELIEVE HIM.
Yet again, on behalf of Scots viewers, BBC It's important to be *clear*, so people aren't confused - Scotland has its own Health Secretary - The Scottish NHS is not same as English NHS - There is no 'UK NHS' PLEASE get it right, BBC NHS Scotland bbcqt BBCPolitics
Bit late, should’ve done this weeks ago
I hope MattHancock and the UK government order people to wear masks when going outside. It seems common sense!
Chief Nurse pleading for folk to stay home.... It's not bloody difficult, numbers are getting bigger everyday. StayHomeSaveLives
Why is the chief nurse wearing a nurse's uniform in public during a pandemic. Wrong infection control message and not showing much discipline there.
MattHancock ordering people to stay at home this weekend, or face the wrath of the police. Good! no Mr.Nice Guy! well done Matt.. selfish people who are killing people deserve no mercy.
Get the message people. OBEY
I really hope more people take notice of this instruction 😕 StayHomeSaveLives ProtectTheNHS
'See that massive red button that says DANGEROUS on it, PLEASE do not press it'.
