Coronavirus: Elderly could face four months of self-isolation as 14 more people die in the UK

If US news isn't getting your attention, THIS UK piece is sobering. Even more dire than we are being told. Some of this reporting from Scotland I think. They fear 80% of the population may contract COVID-19. They think they need to run 1.2 million tests just to figure out how widespread the pandemic. They are testing 10,000 a day.

Certainly no Churchill in that administration. Suppose the ones here would do it to
stop or hinder the election.
