Agree with everything else you said Sunny but I think there has to be limiting of interaction with friends here. That's not to say a total isolation but indoor play dates should be discouraged. Playing outside is considered low risk so that should be fine once the children are taught to wash their hands immediately when they come back in and to follow the other advice given.I have heard of people not letting their kids outside to play for the next two weeks or limiting interaction with their friends. It's just crazy.
you 'not going anywhere' for two weeks is that by the end of the two weeks, you will be told that they are actually stepping up the measures and you will simply be fatigued after already spending two weeks isolating
I expect they were planning for the weekend but the large number of cases today spooked them, although almost all these cases were a consequence of cases they already knew about.
Oh dear oh dear, i'm only making the point with regard to people who stockpile buy and leave nothing for everyone else. I just used the flour as an example.Whats wrong with buying 2kg of flour?
I've had to buy far more groceries than usual; I need to feed myself and I no longer eat out.
I don't see anything greedy about it.
