    To try and stop 80% of the country getting it?

    Summat to do with flattening the sombrero. Not sure what the Mexicans have done to deserve being jumped up and down on, but I'm sure the scientists know best...

    I now unfortunately know someone who's got it. He's 36 no underlying health conditions. He sounds truly horrific, I spoke with his partner who's isolated. He could hardly speak without coughing and struggled to breath. This is serious, **** me up. I'm slightly overweight and vape ( ex smoker) so I'm concerned.

    Because if we all got it at the same time the NHS would implode. It wouldn't be able to cope with that kind of demand.

    John from Athersley says it's just the flu though, so don't worry.

    You’re flying against pretty much every forecast there. Bold stuff.

    Italy have pushing about 30k cases at the moment and that is just who have been tested. I don't think it takes a genius to work out that there will be many, many more who haven't been tested and many who have had it but not experienced any symptoms and continue to spread it. You are way off the mark.

    Why bother, Ho dear, they are trying to stop 80% not getting the virus you said it your self with the word "could". I cannot believe a word Johnson says as I just don't believe liers so I'll listen to the experts but in the end, I'll do what I think is my best option according to the experts as a 70-year old I've been told I'm one of the most vulnerable so I'll try and keep mi sen to mi sen. Wonder if we can claim a bit back regarding our season tickets

    So I suffer from high blood pressure it's one of the underlying conditions listed do I self isolate? Has Boris just said everyman for himself good luck?

    They mentioned that there will be specific information distributed via the NHS website.

    I have no idea the answer to your question, but I would assume it depends how high.
