What are the media going to do with themselves when all this is over and done with? Its wall to wall, 24/7 coverage and its deeply depressing. There ARE other things going on in the world, though you wouldn't think so. I've stopped watching. Now sticking head in sand and watching Netflix!!
I'm also fed up of being told how to do something that is completely self explanatory e.g washing my hands. Gosh, who knew you should use soap?
I also think I'm the only person in the UK who thinks all this clapping the NHS on your doorstep stuff is silly - of course, I'm grateful to them but the doctors and nurses themselves have said they don't want claps, they want PPE and proper testing. To me, the 'terribly British' clapping on doorsteps was just a smokescreen to conceal the truth that our NHS wasn't up to the job because of years of underfunding.
I also read that the government and different bodies concerned ran one of those 'dummy runs' a while ago to cater for a pandemic, and they gave up on it half way through because it was obvious they wouldn't be able to cope.
I will now sit back and wait for all those replies telling me how awful I am and that I should be joining an online choir or knitting a tea cosy.
