all along the govt has been reacting to the latest news splash on the virus

not getting ahead of the story

like anouncing measures that 'will happen soon' not will happen 'now!'

like the stopping people ariving without going even being temp tested! nothing!

U.S Fed dropped rates to settle nerves in the financial markets, but it didn't work. They're really spooked over the effects of covid-19.The Dow Jones fell of a cliff last night, losing 12.9%. Not looking good.

I think the virus would be fairly irrelevant to the stockmarkets now. Once they start falling it has a snowball effect and it takes on a life of its own.

I like the way they say the spread of the virus is far more advanced in the US than here, but they say that they have 4,300 cases and we have 370. They have 14 times our population so we have more cases per capita than they do.
