Well I’ve got mild symptoms (cough, sore throat etc). So I’ve taken the kids out of school as per guidelines.

Apparently they have been threatening to fine people in some areas for this.

Which law have they transgressed?
bd139:
A combination of the vague specification of an education in the Education Act 1996 and the overbearing ability for our local councils and schools to be absolute complete cuntsocks because they are run by little Hitlers.

The answer will be "see you in court, probably in about a decade"

rant mode.

I was 14 days in home office because I was in Italy. Today is my second day at work.
My department manager (not my direct boss, the one above) forced my presence at work. He is an idiot, a big one. My direct boss keep saying "I am sorry, could do nothing about this", I am beyond pissed off, like all the other colleagues in my team.
I am washing my hands like crazy and avoid people like opposite magnet poles. I go work using my bike, forget about public transportation.

Some germans colleagues are scared of me, which is good for me and for them. They keep the safety distance from me with just a bad look of mine.

What infuriate me more is seeing people in close circles in the city and at work,  laughing like nothing is happening.
As soon I am done at work I go home as fast as I can on my bike.

More than 200 italians are dying every day, what we need more to understand this is not a joke?

I am tempted to tell my company I am sick with temperature, but fu%& I am not a dishonest guy.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUU

This is where Britain is ahead of things. We avoid people under ALL circumstances.

That may seem like a joke, but its not entirely. A lot of Americans get really uncomfortable in many Asian cities, because people are content to be much closer together than most Americans are used to. These cultural differences can have a big effect in times like now. The key reason Beijing was a really big city long before anything in Europe was they had a culture of personal cleanliness, long before they understood the medical value of cleanliness.
