We were on a running trip in the Brecons in Feb and got chatting to a group of guys in the pub, one of whom was a ‘Disaster/Pandemic consultant’ to the government and other large businesses, basically advising on how to prepare for the possible eventualities. He was stating then around 15th Feb how big this situation was going to be, and we all thought it was an overreaction. Luckily people like him exist and have the expertise, knowledge and understanding to provide the correct advice to these institutions.
