    PM says ‘very confident’ ‘we can send corona virus packing’ within 12 weeks - says won’t do closures of bars and cafes if there is enough evidence people are staying away in enough number - plan only works if ‘ruthless collective action’

        But, Boris can start with small things, like, providing enough #Paracetamol & food to the public! There seems to be a national shortage due to #panicshopping those who’ve got the virus, may not have enough to last for 14 days! NHS & key workers needs to get tested! #COVID2019uk

        Profoundly worrying and unsettling Press Conference PM holds out hope ( 12 weeks to turn tide) based on nothing tangible , muddled delivery of key messages which all goes to undermining the imperative of minimising social interaction and maximising social distance

        How long before we #NHSstaff get proper levels of testing to find asymptomatic positive virus shredders who are currently working with patients? "A while."

        This is an awful press conference. Whiff of desperation about it. 12 weeks to “send it packing” is just fatuous rubbish.

        🙄🙄🙄 People should definitely stay away but I won’t MAKE them stay away unless they’re not staying away. An endless cycle then.

        This is insane, the government MUST shut down pubs and cafes. Otherwise there is no chance to stop the spreading of the virus. Look at the measures taken at China, and now in Spain, Italy, France, Germany, and many states in US!
