Coronavirus: Brits over 70 to be quarantined for up to 4 months - Business Insider

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson arrives to hold a news conference addressing the government's response to the coronavirus outbreak, at Downing Street in London, Britain March 12, 2020.People over 70 in the UK will be quarantined for up to 4 months in a 'wartime' effort to tackle coronavirus.Hancock said the plan was a 'very big ask' for older people but said it was a measure for their own protection, and confirmed it would be introduced in the 'coming weeks.

"And we will be setting it out with more detail when it is the right time to do so because we absolutely appreciate that it is a very big ask of the elderly and the vulnerable, and it's for their own self-protection." He also warned that the UK risked having a severe shortage of ventilators, amid concerns that intensive care units will be unable to cope with the number of patients who have confirmed cases of the coronavirus, which can cause respiratory problems, especially among elder patients.

And when that’s done they will still have to pay their TV license Thanks☹️

Why don't you transfer them directly to catacombs in the local cemetery?

Introduced in the 'coming weeks'. That is too little too late.....

Much better answer would be to create a test that could be given to everyone

gchikermane Is that the devil in the shadow...?

RawlsMA What’s that gonna do?

Many are already isolated & lonely without care

How many MPs are over 70? Jeremy Corbyn is, for one.

If that rule would be adopted in the US, That would mean, Biden / Sanders couldn’t campaign and Trump couldn’t work as president

How about the queen

None of this makes sense (I know silly me for thinking it should). The 'plan' is predicated on delay because early intervention would be screwed up by loads of halfwits ignoring required advice/action. So now they expect 70+ not to be halfwits? No 70+ halfwits?

Jonharding77 The CoVir epidemic is being exaggerated to induce anxiety, fear and stress in order to grab more bureaucratic power over the people. It is not trump's agenda but the agenda of the Deep State. There is a secret battle for your mind going on. NothingBurgerVirus

lindayueh You need also a network of volunteers to keep the old people provided.

telloglou Too little too late, I am afraid

Good luck policing that one. Can’t see my father-in-law complying.

Well thats big U turn.😎

Smart move to protect the elders
