Coronavirus

I forgot to include a link to the transcript though it is the same as one I put but earlier. Anyway here it is

It is certainly the best explanation of the effects of the Covid19 by someone who knows what they are talking about that I have come across.

As he says there are things they don’t know but so far it is the best.

Such a sad photo. A woman is forced to eat a Seder meal all by herself, during Passover. (note the video conference at the left of the table).

I agree. I know that Londonistan is the pits, or at least parts of it, and the same goes for Birmingham. There are other similar places too, but I wasn’t aware that Slough was of the same type.

I see that there is a police TV series that regularly features Slough, so I assume it must be a ‘bit rough’.

Two of the factors that influence the spread of Covid-19 are
1/ How dense the population is.
2/ How dense the population are.

I must own up that I am one of those horrible judgemental people. In my case it refers to such people as those who continue to congregate together outside pubs, in parks, etc., and especially those imbecilic cretins and morons who amuse themselves by coughing in people’s faces.

Perhaps that’s just me.

Oh - that stuff! Yes - I do remember it it now - and the daft ad on TV with Kenneth Williams doing the voice over!

I was thinking you meant actual blue porcelain loos! Sorry!!

:023: :lol:

Exactly. :-D:-D

The PM has been moved out of IC back onto the ward . :smiley:

I’m glad to hear that, thanks Zuleika.

After warning the public on the daily news, the San Diego County Sheriffs have begun issuing citations of $1,000 USD to those who disobey orders to not gather in groups and stay out of parks, beaches and basketball courts etc.

Global Cases 1,604,855
Global Deaths 95,738
Mortality Rate 6%
(Flu Mortality Rate 0.1%)

Australia
Cases 6152
Deaths 53
Critical 81
Cases per Million 241

UK
Cases 65,077
Deaths 7,978
Critical 1,559
Cases per Million 959

USA
Cases 468,887
Deaths 16,697
Critical 10,011
Cases per Million 1417

The published figures are odd, for example the UK has twice as many deaths as Iran for about the same number of cases. I don’t think that can be right

Likewise Germany has about the same number of cases pro rata population as the USA but only 60% of the deaths per million population. There is no consistency in the figures

Yes, I said the same thing many pages ago.
I’m not positive but, the UK seems to be only counting cases admitted to hospitals, and not those who have C-19 but are staying at home. Thus, the gross number of total cases is skewed downward.

I think it’s already been admitted that only those tested are counted…and I suspect that is the same as not being taken into hospital. We were told lots of new test kits were being made available but since that announcement there’s been no further news though I have heard that if e.g. elderly people in a care home die…it’s not covid-19 !!! So the figures could be hugely understated.

Too much to hope that our courts would do that.

It would appear to be a fact that figures given out each day do not include those in nursing or care homes, who may have died as a result of the effects of coronavirus.

The relevant items on the two links below explain what are given as the reasons for this:

I see 3000 more brits are being flown by charter flights back to
UK! No info on whether they have or will be tested before being
allowed to reintegrate with the general populace?
Surely all of them should be tested AND isolated for 14 days if
we hope to reduce infections??

Donkeyman!

You believe they’re just going to be let in to resume their lives without either /or or both of those two things?
I read something about them having to self isolate for 14 days. .
