    The Netherlands has brought in a ban on all organised gatherings of more than three people until June 1 and will give mayors the power to fine people who break the rules – including those who do not keep 1.5 metres from others. The tough new measures were announced by justice minister Ferd Grapperhaus at a news conference on Monday evening, following a meeting of the government’s crisis committee with health and security experts. ‘The key to our success is our own behaviour,’ Grapperhaus said. ‘Do not go out unless you have to leave to go to work, or do do shopping. Go shopping alone. And if you do want to go for a walk, don’t go in a group.’

    How do they give you the fines?

    Lockdown incoming. People are still not respecting the stay at home message.

    Me too. That sounds reasonable, and won't affect anything I've been doing. Could be a bit tricky for some though.

    Sadly, I think you're right. Some folk will still see it as an excuse to rush to the shop and stock up their private mini-mart.

    It's a shame, as the majority seem to be taking it it very seriously.

    You’re now looking at a minimum 3-4 weeks for supermarket home delivery, if you can get one at all.

    Then I guess that falls into the 'if at all possible' bit.

    It sounds like he's trying to time the total lock down, but now has the opportunity for that to be the fault of those that lack the self discipline needed to minimise the risk to others and the burden on the NHS. They'll most likely be the same ones on the front of the HDM bemoaning the fact there's no bed for little Kyle when he falls off the roof playing hide and seek.
