Not going tomorrow

[Irish_Steve]

I`ve decided that I`m not going to the match tomorrow. And before anyone labels me a drama queen, my brother works in the medical services and has strongly suggested that I don`t go.

I`m not really concerned about contracting the virus (as I`m a fit 53 yr old) but more concerned about passing it on. I do think things are going to get "worse" before they get better.

I`ll spend Saturday hunting bog roll

Get to ER early, nick all the bog roll then watch the game.

Win, win. Unless we draw or lose obviously.

I tend to use pavements.

[BlackSheep]

I have also taken this decision.

I am diabetic and while i am not concerned directly about my wellbeing, I am more susceptible to catching colds/flu/viruses so dont wish to be the one who passes it on to those more vulnerable than me.

Thankfully i will be watching from home though! Be safe every one.

[spike220]

None

Perhaps the OP broher can hook us up? What about it steve?
you could add 10% to cover your costs??

I don't think there has to be a declaration of why anyone is or isn't attending.

People will make their decision based on their view of the circumstances.

Pure Mozza sandwich that shop. Safeway for ages, then a sliver of Morrison in the middle for not very long, then Waitrose for ages.

[Vault Boy]

Fair enough OP. Has to come down to the autonomy of individuals and I'd understand why anybody would make the same decision.

[DaveF]

Yeah, what a fanny for not wanting to catch and spread a virus that has the potential to be deadly.

See, the bit I'm just not getting is that if it was that serious why is there not a ban now. Some clarity to avoid these disputes would be nice.

I'm genuinely in two minds now over tomorrow but edging towards going.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

Maybe we should have a generic thread about not going back until things get better and perhaps a poll for the reason. Maybe COVID-19 will beat , Petrie, Catering, Seagulls and the lack of DM to replace Barts.

In all seriousness, if the OP is giving up the Saturday fix because of potential risks to someone else's welfare, that is the proper thing to do.

[Hibbyradge]

I'm not going tomorrow either and I'm taking a financial hit by avoiding it.

I have a match ticket and my train is booked, but that money is spent so I'm really only missing out on an hour and a half of watching football.

I was in two minds, but my mate who I was supposed to be staying with, is in bed with "flu-like symptoms" so I'm steering clear.

If you want, I'll give you his address and you can pop round to visit him.

The right decision. We should be looking at this as if we have the virus already and don’t want to infect others.

[CloudSquall]

I'm also not going to MK Dons vs AFC Wimbledon

Is it because they're trying to control the spread? Controlling it can include encouraging it to an extent? :dunno:

:agree: Modeller was on Newsnight yesterday explaining that the intention is to create herd immunity by allowing healthy people to become infected, and to avoid vulnerable people becoming infected. No plan evident for the latter part, but hey ho.

That's a good way to look at it. 👍

[SquashedFrogg]

That's the Mrs of off work today with clear symptoms. I've been working from home all week so been able to avoid unnecessary social contact. That's that gubbed now.

She certainly won't be at ER tomorrow now and I reckon I'll avoid too. Don't want to take the chance of spreading anything to my fellow Hibbys.

[hibsbollah]

It crossed my mind at the derby that maybe being jammed in with thousands of potential carriers on a cold evening with my son was a risk I shouldn't be taking. After reading some reports like this
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/13/italian-doctor-an-experience-i-would-compare-to-a-world-war
of what is unfolding in Korea and Italy im even more sure I'll be watching my sport at home in front of the TV for the foreseeable. Give the 'drama queen' talk a rest please.

I think if your fit and healthy, dont live with anybody with underlying heath conditions and protect yourself with handwashing, knowing theres a chance your gonna get it at some point whether it be at the local tesco or at the game then you should go.
If the thinking is controlled spread then isolations not gonna work either. As ssoon as we 'unisolate' we are back to square one.

Say what?

So we have people not going tomorrow because they don't want to catch it or spread it but the govt want healthy people to get it?

[BroxburnHibee]

Say what?

So we have people not going tomorrow because they don't want to catch it or spread it but the govt want healthy people to get it?

I think we need to accept that the majority of us will get it.

I think the measures are designed to delay the spread so our services can cope.

[Hibbyradge]

Say what?

So we have people not going tomorrow because they don't want to catch it or spread it but the govt want healthy people to get it?

I'm trying to get my head around that too.

I think the theory is that if a lot of healthy people get it early and recover, they can't spread it again.

But I get stuck after that :everythin

[Smartie]

I'm genuinely in two minds now over tomorrow but edging towards going.

There are a certain number of confirmed cases. The number of actual cases is likely to be much higher, although as of now neither are all that high. Whilst case numbers are small, the economic damage that can result from drastic measures aren’t worth taking the action, as that action - right now - will likely have little impact.

Over the next few days, the number of expected cases will go beyond a “tipping point” and drastic measures will be justified. That has probably been calculated to be around Sunday / Monday in the UK.

If you wish to stay away - and many people will - then that is your call and nobody can really be harmed by that.

It sounds crass as if it’s all about money, greed and political posturing but it isn’t. Obviously the greatest concerns right now are death, death of loved ones, pain and suffering. But people also have livelihoods to protect etc so prolonging normality has its place too.

It’s tough for those charged with making decisions - I speak as someone who might have to voluntarily close a business for a greater good knowing that my livelihood and the jobs of several others might be wiped out as a result.

I don’t understand it either, my feelings were that we should be going down a more serious route but Jason Leitch on Radio Scotland this morning made a lot of sense with regards to trying to time it right.

Because it's potentially more dangerous to go on lock down now before the virus has hit it's prime in several weeks time.
As chief medic said there's as much chance as catching it in a room with 5 people in a house rather than a football match outside.

The Tories Medical Advisors seem to be implying that they are now allowing g people to contract the infection but self isolate This helps develop Herd Immunity which is necessary to ensure we don’t get a second peak into the winter months
Other Countries doing different things

If I had underlying health issues I may have decided not to go though

You need food to live so shopping is essential. Football isn't no matter what Shankley may have said.

If you've got an alcohol wipe, I'd clean the trolley handle before you shop and scrub your hands straight after, in the shop toilets if you can.

Keep clear of anyone coughing or sneezing and you'l have minimised the risk.
