Wales vs. Scotland to go ahead tomorrow, with the WRU mentioning that they have 'enhanced facilities for hand washing and sanitisation at the stadium'. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/rugby/rugby-news/wru-break-silence-defend-decision-17916759

They were happy to play games this weekend until they were backed into a corner. Looking to be announced that games will be suspended for a month. Also, I'm curious as to what the EU have done to try and contain the spread. Haven't heard a peep from them.

Strangely, I've read something similar here. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/51859553 This strikes me as strange as we're being told not to shake hands, be within certain distance of people etc, yet the chances of being infected at large events (which, last I checked, involved people being close to you) is........... low?

Tbh, my knowledge of politics is very minimal in general, but it's the sheer hypocrisy that does my head in with them. Happy to criticise others yet do similar themselves. I've sent @DeadLinesman to America with a few petrol cans and a lighter. Have a nice day.

Without trying to turn this into a political argument, the Welsh (Labour) Government have a habit of this sort of thing just to be 'unique', 'the first' or simply be 'different' to the UK Government, even when it makes no sense whatsoever. I've been tempted to make a thread around the Welsh Government but that's for another time.

Welsh health minister Vaughan Gething has announced that schools will stay open and the Six Nations match between Wales and Scotland in Cardiff will still go ahead.

UK now moved to 'delay' phase, with the possibility of sporting events being banned.

Three Leicester players in self isolation @Stanand @Dan. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51856906

Yeah, I've been making sure that what I can access in work is available at home in case it comes to that.

Wouldn't be surprised if a few Labour supporters are cheering this tonight.

Wales now has 15 cases, a sudden leap of 9. Of the 9, 2 came back from Northern Italy and 5 had contact with the first case in Swansea.

I work in the NHS so that's probably true.

That'll be interesting from my perspective. I can do some work from home but not a huge amount.

Nemesis is meant to be here, there and everywhere in this, rather than at certain times like Mr. X in Resi 2. Will be interesting to see if this is similar to Alien Isolation.

Tbf, if Nemesis could break into them, that could start to cause more frustration than anything, especially if it happens out of the blue. Looking forward to this. Hard to believe it's only a month away.

Good to hear. What chapter are you on now?

Second case confirmed, this one in Cardiff. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-51751542 Ah well. Nice knowing you all.

A couple of airlines in the UK are restricting flights to Western Europe and China, but not heard much more at present.

Without wanting to start anything off, money is king in America, regardless of ethics or morals. Didn't someone say earlier on in this thread that those who wanted to return to America had to pay for a seat?

I'll warn you as before that it's a slow burner and, because it was originally on PS3, it's not a great looking game (not terrible, but compared to other games it's noticeable). Keep at it though and it starts to shine.

The problem I generally have is the way the likes of the media and even our own politicians are currently portraying it (considering locking down cities if necessary, despite the low amount of cases at present), as well as the hysteria around it (ie. it's a global killer and we're all going to die). Because of this, it sparks unnecessary things such as panic buying and, after hearing the 'worst case scenario of deploying the army in case of public disorder' earlier today, mass paranoia. Obviously it needs to be contained, but the media and politicians aren't helping matters.

Heard similar here as well, mainly hand wash and soap......... which you'd normally get anyway as part of your general shop.

Cheers for that.

For those with PS4's, the FF7 demo is out now. Downloading it now.

Had our first confirmed case in Wales on Friday in the 'Swansea area'. Think it was actually coming back from a ski trip as well. How bad is it in Australia @Toinho, @Devil-Dick Willie and @Harry? My sister is currently at the Gold Coast so just wondering, especially if flights are being cancelled or affected.
