The British Parkour championship has been further postponed due to Coronavirus. Frustrated would-be competitors are reported to be climbing the walls.

UK coronavirus live: Scotland goes further than England in banning household visits from tomorrow

From the sublime to the ridiculous. Is every house going to have a guard? These type of measures really help public confidence. Open season for snitchers.

And our hands they are many and we'd be of one voice
We've come all the way from Wigan to get up and state
Our case for survival before it's too late

Doctor at 'mask optional' clinic in Melbourne dies; tests positive for coronavirus post-mortem

...

Scrivner said she never noticed him or nurses in the office wearing masks.

"I kind of liked that. It's the one place that we could go without feeling like, you know, it's the end of the world," she said, adding that she observed social distancing was taking place in the office.
