Flattening the curve means that our health systems are better able to cope with the numbers of seriously ill people.

This is the best demo that I've seen on ow a virus can spread and what actions have an impact. washingtonpost.com/graphics...

Here's a great bit of video to show children about washing their hands

Cool animations!

Funny I wondered why the UK was apparently only going up linearly, until I realised that's probably because we only have a limited number of people doing the testing.

Then the government admitted the real number was probably much higher . . . But they didn't know what that number was, which makes the management kind of tricky.

Best wishes,

Ernest
