If you are going to the match I'd suggest getting in early before queues and crowds develop. Stay in your seat at halftime. Wait for the crowds to subside at the final whistle.If you are over 60 I'd seriously consider giving it a miss.
But if we restrict ourselves to only doing things which are essential like food shopping, and non essential things like football matches, then the risk of exposure is significantly reduced and the spread could slow.. not stop, but slow down.

Doubling time is currently 3.5 days. So.if that keeps up, we'll be at 2,500 this time next week, 10,000 the week after. That's, respectively,where Spain and Italy have been this week.
I got slated for referring to Asian Flu on here a week or so ago as it had "no relevance" but that boomed from a start similar to this - and in 6 months from June 57 to Christmas 57 three thousand five hundred and fifty people in the UK were deadWe had no social media of course and even Telly was in its infancy and the Asian Flu would have been mentioned I am guessing only during news bulletins. I dont know I was only 6+ - but what I do know it eventually got me and my parents and brother and we were all bed ridden but recovered. I seem to remember we were in bed for "ages" probably a weekSo this outbreak essentially (I am guessing) pretty similar to that is a frightening prospect and knowing what to do is difficult because everything you touch in the outside world carries a risk - and the risk is that someone has spread it via touching train seats doors - Open Door buttons - money they paid for Tickets which you get on your change etc etc. I could drive myself batty just thinking about itHowever (eventually) I too would think I am more at risk of contracting it in a Supermarket than going to the Game tomorrow
