Dunfermline Don Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I saw a illustration of what the “new” pub situation is going to be like. Grim I have seen a post on FB this evening about a pub in East London being open!!What’s the point of the face mask! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renton Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 What gets me about all these mock ups for the bar of the future where you drink your pint in splendid isolation, and then leave without touching any surface, is what the hell is the point of a suppression strategy based on TTI if not to allow for normal life to continue with the knowledge that any outbreak will be aggressively shut down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mock bar of the future is just a bullshit info piece that will give king gammon the official paperwork to re-open spoons for the drunken hoards to totally ignore when getting hammered 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think tbf no one is really going to complain if that is what pubs look like in July. It's if they still look that way in September it's farcical. What do bars look like in other countries that are open? If not like this, why do we need to try to reinvent the wheel?

Forest_Fifer Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Why have chairs there if you cant sit at them? What if the bar only has one door? Hardly seems worth it Ah, hang on, it's just the Suns crappy diagram, carry on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screens to protect the bar staff from extreme viral loading would do it for me. And the beer gardens reserved for smokers and the shielded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'But on Monday, London recorded no new infections, compared to 19 the day before. However, the new figure could be down to a temporary glitch in the Covid-19 patient notification system on May 16.' https://metro.co.uk/2020/05/20/london-records-no-new-coronavirus-cases-24-hours-12733386/ Not only is it good news, but flies in the face of everyone saying that people cramming in to tube trains are about to die and kick off the second wave. First comment. Silly me. Forgot 2020 was cancelled. Edited May 20, 2020 by Todd_is_God 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted May 20, 2020 Author Share Posted May 20, 2020 Before and after pic of a corona patient. I think there's about ten weeks between these photos - he was intubed for 6 weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
