In reply to Post #97 too many people still think its a joke.
I bet if one of the symptoms was ''your manhood will drop off' a lot more people would be wearing a mask......

In reply to Post #96 Everyone is vulnerable, and it's people like you being blasé which is spreading it around

In reply to Post #95 In France. And if you use common sense you won't spread it will you? Social distance, wash hands, don't visit the the vulnerable if you suspect you have flu like symptoms.

In reply to Post #93 Are you that thick? Whilst you are right the majority will not be affected, how do you think the virus spreads? Where have you been the last 6 months

In reply to Post #93 What an idiotic statement

In reply to Post #92 It's not a concern for anyone unless you are elderly with underlying health conditions. Roughly 99.8% of the population will be ok.

Yes the overseas regions numbers are tiny.
Not to worry though, this Covid thing isn't a concern for you.

In reply to Post #84 Luckily my trip for this year has been carried over to next year by the lake owner. Cheers Lyn!
But my employer has advised that anyone travelling abroad, where 14 days quarantine is expected on their return is putting their future employment in jeopardy.
Reason enough for me not to go (if I were going).

In reply to Post #89 You also failed to mention the French figures include overseas territories like la le reunion, Martinique, Guyana, Corsica and Guadeloupe. Plus many areas of France haven't seen rises in hospital admissions or deaths. My region for example has had 2 deaths in a month. The main areas driving rises are Paris, Bordeaux and Marseille.

In reply to Post #85 I also failed to mention that admissions into French hospitals with Covid is now again on the rise...
"The number of patients in intensive care units in the country has also been rising in recent days. While hospital figures are still far from the peaks reached in April, there are concerns over the strain that rising infection rates could put on the health system."
hopefully the numbers can be reduced with people listening to the guidance else it'll just continue to rise with the inevitable hospital admissions and then rising deaths.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-54151281
The use of hospital beds by Covid-19 patients in the French city of Marseille is "close to saturation" amid a sharp spike in infections.
Surgeries are being reduced to cope with an incidence rate that has risen to 312 per 100,000 since September.
Yep, their testing more now but there's a huge surge in infections as we can see by hospital numbers rising rapidly...

In reply to Post #84 Just to clarify that we are very aware of the risk of spreading covid so keep to social distancing with our anglers and totally disinfect the shower block each day. If both lakes have anglers we segregate the shower/toilet facilitates and ensure that full disinfection is carried out between group changeover times. Hand sanitizer is in the shower block at all times. Cannot be to careful.

In reply to Post #86 I came back from France on the 5th after a weeks fishing.
My observations are:
- try to avoid motorway services if you can or if not, if it’s busy get back in your car and drive to the next one. Most people did have masks on but the queue that my wife was in for the lady’s toilets was long and no social distancing was followed
- even in rural areas people were wearing masks. The supermarkets were great and we didn’t feel at risk
- euro tunnel procedures were great and you can use with confidence
- still quarantining at the moment but not had any contact from a government official to check up on us as of yet
Out again in a couple of weeks and would feel confident going again
In terms of hygiene at the lake I would suggest taking control of your own safety and risk of exposure. Wash your hands regularly, use hand sanitiser when required and if indoors wear a mask.
I will eat outside or in my own swim at mealtimes
Will be interesting to see how the draw for swims is done. Last time out I had the lake to myself so not a problem
I also think that there will be anglers dropping out on my next week so the lake won’t be anywhere near full capacity

In reply to Post #85 If it so safe out there it makes me wonder why our Government are overreacting so much, they should concentrate on Brexit!

In reply to Post #84 You failed to mention only 17 deaths. Or the fact France, after a very slow start, has massively ramped up testing. More tests equals more positive results.

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirucountry/france/
France had more than 10k new cases yesterday.
Can you trust that everyone (including their families)at the lake has been following guidelines in the week/s before coming to the lake? did everyone follow the guidelines on the way to the lake? Is everyone following the guideline now at the lake?
It's not just a case of 'what's the chance of catching it at a lake miles away from the general population '....
