Hi everyone,

Following the very popular Coronavirus Concerns discussion, I have created this discussion to continue conversation around the Coronavirus where you can discuss with each other and share updates and concerns. 

However, we do request that conversations and comments about politics are not posted as this inadvertently leads to disagreements and arguments as we have seen in previous discussions where we have needed to moderate posts. Please can you keep your conversation free from politics friendly and in the spirit of the community. A reminder of the Guidelines below:

Community Guidelines

Many thanks for your understanding and all your support of Club Together.

The Apple system didn't locate closely enough (I think that's what I heard.) Android fared better. I'm surprised this wasn't researched much earlier!

Surprised, really?!! 😂. I was pleased when our World Beating Track and Trace system was announced thinking, great they have a good plan to tackle this sensibly. Now I’m thinking that unfortunately none of the ‘powers that be’ seem to have much of a clue what they are doing. Which, frankly, is now getting quite frightening!  Every proposal they have instigated seems to have been worked out on the back of a fag packet!

They seem to have abandoned the App approach, at least until the Autumn. Concentrating instead on the manual Test and Track system which seems to be having a bit more luck although they do seem to be having an issue contacting quite a few people?

More probably politicians jumping the gun in much the same way the Marketing Department used to do when I was working.

Now that we have a track and trace system up and running in this country, I personally believe that it is a good idea to publicise the outbreaks of covid 19 as much as possible in the media. It makes the public aware of what is about in their local area and maybe avoid it if possible. I see there have been outbreaks in food factories in different parts of the country. Surely it is good to inform people of this. We shouldn't be concerned that this is going to cause anxiety.

Knowledge is power👍🏻. Hiding things can lead to complacency & ignorance. I doubt industry is any better than joe public & a lot of the public are convinced it’s passed & life moves on☹️

That's the problem with "world beating systems". They're inconsistent and let you down.frown

The only bad thing I have ever hear about apple is it's connectivity - seems to be a true criticism!

The fact they actively work against other systems, their operating systems are woefully underchecked(post Jobs) they are overpriced too😕. I was a long time supporter until recently.

i have had an email from the local council (I am on their mailing list) highlighting a hot spot. During the out break I have had lots from them about what to do and local help available. Perhaps in order to be kept advised about local issues folk should get themselves on similar mailing lists if they are available.

I can go on line and find out just how many  places in our county are hot spots or not,   there are 3or4 places that have not had any deaths from corvid 19 including our borough
