Boris Johnson: Public theatres should no longer be visited

Cubs Fan says:

And now all those 70+ in age should become hermits for three months! Should make the tube less crowded…

Alessandra Petrina says:

Simon, I do not know if you mean this and your other comments on the topic as a joke, but it is beyond belief. Thousands of people in the world have died, hundreds of thousands are ill. Every single immunologist and virologist is saying that the only thing we can do is isolate and create social distance, as much as possible. Johnson is way too late, but every other government in countries that have been hit, from China to Germany to Italy to South Korea, is enforcing the same measures. This is also what WHO is saying. Yet you have decided this is bs? on whose authority?

Gideon says:

Such an idiotic comment. People are dying everywhere- non theatre goers audience members and those creating the art- all major opera houses the world over are closed to protect the public and workers within the companies. ROH is simply making the right choice.
