Exercise once a day

[winkywanky]

You say that, but somebody was stabbed to death in a very affluent village not a million miles from where I live only 2 days ago. 

That's genuinely shocking and I'm sorry to hear that Chorley  .

County Lines?

With Covid-19 filling every News bulletin now (can that go on for the next 12 wks?) it had occurred to me that other news would fall off the top of the list. But stabbings?

[mr.bluesky]

With punting on hold at the moment it's only my right arm that's getting plenty of exercise. Unless I learn to use my left arm my right forearm will resemble Popeye's 

[Happylad]

I`ve done my day`s exercise - I got up!

[scutty brown]

It's all nonsense unless they force a complete lockdown which is enforced in other European countries.
And the police certainly don't have the man power due to the police cuts over many years to enforce if there is a complete lockdown let alone even now.

Some police forces are reporting 40-50% sickness / absentee rate.
Seriously compromised on manpower

You seem to have access to information denied to the rest of us.

no, some forces have made details public, some haven't.
But even where details have not been released, its clear that all the emergency services are suffering a  bad attrition rate

Whatever. The police and all public services have always had a sick rate far higher than is found in private sector or crucially among the self employed. Very little to do with the virus, talking of attrition rate is absurd, alarmist and typical of your postings.

Still acting the ostrich I see.........
can I suggest that in future if you want to post garbage you do it on a topic you know something about? Somebody might believe you then....

Don't bother addressing specific points, just come out with puerile insults, enjoy being a drama queen, we will soon see who is right, plenty of evidence already of govt backtracking, the figure of 250k deaths has morphed into under 10 k most of whom will have underlying health conditions., with no real explanation as to why.

A few day ago the rate in the Met police was 19%. The rate was less than 7% of police offers.

Do you have any sources for police forces reporting 40-50%?

I work in the private sector and our absence rate is only marginally higher than normal, including a few who've self-isolated. Discount the self-isolators and it'd be lower than normal.

Backtracking? Little evidence of that in the emergency planning that's been put into place in the last few weeks. I think you'll find the medics doing the planning are expecting the worst

[Mr Sinister]

The streets are full of fat assed white girls out in those skin tight leggings that either go right up between their ass cheeks or have their asses stretching the leggings so you can see their knickers. 

  it's been ridiculous where I am during the week on my lunchtime cycle. Pre-pandemic where tf have these girls been? Make matters worse you can't even chat them up now, absolute torture.

[sparkus]

I guess having a wank is a form of exercise.

[GingerNuts]

As if he would!

He says some forces have made details public so it shouldn't be a problem.

He won't have posted something so serious if he can't substantiate it. No doubt the delay is while he collates the information.

[Thephoenix]

99...100...change hands... 999.....1000....change hands..... This is really tough exercise.
Now I know what it was like for all those poor massage girls with wankers elbow trying to get me to cum...phew, I'll have to have a cup of tea and a chocolate digestive

Scutty do you have a link for those figures.
Is the inference that the police are deserting ship or all ill ?
The rules surrounding sickness/absentiism are clear.   While it is understandable that workers for a host of reasons might want to and/or need to stay at home its the case that key workers are expected to work and employers are being quite clear about this stating that non attendance may result in disciplinary action as unnwarranted absentiism just makes the burden heavier on those who do keep working so its kindof right that employers should be strict.
So its interesting whats going on with this 40-50% figure of yours. What is your interpretation ?

I asked yesterday and he didn't answer.

Maybe he'll surprise us but it seems like more made up scaremongering.

[Chorley]

Afternoon all
I thought I might interject if I may? Without giving too much away, part of my job role involves liaison and face to face meetings with local Police.

What I can say from my end, and this will most likely vary from area to are, is that there is some sickness which is related to Covid 19 and some that isnt: as an example, I know one poor sod was seriously injured  following a traffic stop and a couple of others were assaulted during ops.
 I guess a Police Officer can't really practice social distancing while some lairy Fuckwit is trying to kicking off? . 

 There's also an element of " workforce management" and as such some officers are working remotely to stop the spread which could really decimate the force.

Again, this is just from my observations within my local area and the limited interaction I have with officers. 

Cheers

Thanks for your input but we still don't have anything to back up SB's statement.

Yes, it's difficult for me to put a precise figure on it. I know  my forcet were thin on the ground before Covid19, so the attrition rate due to to working long hours, often through leave, under stressful conditions will take its toll even on the most resilient of people.

[cotton]

It is a difficult and confusing time. I hope the police have been directed towards maintaining a visible presence while protecting themselves. HSE protections apply to the police just as much as anyone , nobody should be expected to go into a burning building to save a baby or give mouth to mouth to a person dying in the street. Key workers , working in whatever capacity will have concerns and fears, its important that those in charge prioritise the safety of their workers , so that workers feel ok going into work and dont feel like they are being thrown to the wolves.
But still scuttys 40-50% is hard to believe.

[winkywanky]

I've seen a lot of police around, far more than usual.

Although I couldn't get close enough to see if they were PCSOs  .

[willie loman]

Given that the pubs and clubs are closed, and lock down is by and large voluntarily observed, the police actually have had an awful lot of their workload removed. be interesting how crime statistics will stack up for this period. Shoplifting actually quite difficult,  burglary equally etc .

Some ill, some self isolating.
No suggestion that they're jumping ship.   As I said, some forces, not all
Seeing similar levels of attrition in NHS primary care staff as well - even after switching most GPs to home working and consolidating the rest on larger sites we're well down on numbers.
News report today said nationally we've lost around 25% of clinical staff - looks like the rate for primary care is higher
And if you wonder about the delay in reply - some of us are still working, helping to put the alternative systems in place. Not  lot of time to post

You have plenty of time to post , when no one calls you out on your drivel, but when challenged you disappear, implying you are dealing with the national emergency, a real walter mitty.

If you're doing such sterling work supporting the nation I'm sure you don't want to be spreading misinformation.

You said your 40-50% was based on publicly available details. Post links or fess up how you arrived at these figures. Other than the figures for the Met I can't find anything publicily available.

Posting such figures without any evidence is just scaremongering.

Seen shitloads, seems also those who usually don't work out are using all this spare time to take up fitness as there's wobbles galore down the park.

It's weird how as I know I can't punt or do hookups my brain is starting to just ignore it to a far greater extent than before.  I'd say my perving is down to male average now

I wouldn't be suprised if this sort of online workout craze atm doesn't cause people injuries.
Who would then present to a doctor (since they are overwhelmed due to the SARS-CoV-2 virus)?

Yes you need to avoid any risk of ending up in hospital for the foreseeable future. Many will contract the virus whilst in hospital for unrelated reasons and some will die. This is already happening although we will probably never know the true data.

Interestingly the exercise once a day is only a guideline in England - there is no law to stop you going out twice or three times

However in Wales it is illegal to go out and exercise more than once a day

Anyone care to suggest a reason why ?
