Warning from the WhatsApp thread.
There is growing evidence of a non infectious but psychologically contagious syndrome. People are at risk developing “Shite weather hopelessness syndrome” characterised by depressive mood, irritability, frustration, and social withdrawal.
People are mistakingly using self isolation and quarantine to limit the spread. even worse some people have gone to Spain to escape the syndrome
I would prescribe period of bunch therapy involving sustained exposure to various gradients of shite weather plus coffee stops.
