The UK have extended their lock down for at least another 3 weeks, but I honestly think it will be a lot longer than that before it's lifted. We're still getting between 700 and 900 deaths a day at the moment, and over 4-5 thousand new cases a day. I know that people still aren't taking social distancing seriously in some places. My sister (who doesn't live here, and so couldn't spend Easter with us this year) lives with a room mate, who has had a friend over on a few occasions, even though the official advice is that nobody should be physically interacting outside of their own households. It's people like that who are prolonging this entire thing.

I saw that China revealed an extra 1290 deaths they'd not previously reported too. I know that absolutely every badly hit country's official count is only the top of the ice berg, but I'd be interested to know peoples thoughts are on this? I know there have been SO many conspiracies since the outbreak, a lot of people here are speculating that China are hiding figures deliberately. I'm not sure what I think about this though, I think it might be extra fear mongering.
