I guess they have indicated closure indefinitely because they don't know how long it will be. But in reality it's not going to be a few weeks of even a few months. It could be many months before an attempt is made to return to normal.

By then I assume many businesses will suffer, more airlines will fold, there will likely be fewer restaurants that will survive. Virtually every aspect of life is likely to be affected.

A vaccine is 12-18 months away.

But it's not all bad news......it looks like this year's football season will be cancelled.

Sage you are a very selfish person cancelling sports events etc will cost much disruption and job losses.

Dave,
Yes, you are right but I've been called much worse. Looks like most sports events are gonna be cancelled, postponed or suspended this year so we are all gonna loose out.

Just heard English football suspended until April 3rd.

The frightening thing is the huge increase in cases. UK on 600 cases and 10 dead is about what Spain was showing just a few weeks ago. Now it is up to 4,210 and 120 deaths.
No wonder these steps are being taken.
