    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    I'm not sure the quotes from WHO match the tone of the article. They only say we are now better prepared and that lockdown has prevented things getting out of control. Would desperately like some good news but not sure this is it.

    Got to admit I don't really understand the science behind this. Each country that has had issues would have had a patient zero and its spread from there so how will it just die out? Surely unless you have zero current infections you still have multiple people with a highly contagious virus?

    As an employee if I brought my employer into disrepute the way Cummings has there is zero chance I'd still be in a job.

    IMO a large part of the issue, and why this is remaining a story, is the response when Cummings was found out. Rather than just admit he was wrong and apologise the entire Conservative party has doubled down to try and cover for him. We've had the likes of Shapps and Gove sent out to cover for...

    Great news. Read some papers on coronaviruses in general, not Covid-19 specifically, that say they tend to die out in spring and come back in the winter so that will be the next concern if we're clear of any second wave. Hopefully by then even if we have no vaccine we at least have a...

    Surely even they wouldn't be stupid enough to be that obvious. I know they take people for idiots but that seems a step to far even for them!

    In all seriousness I did think that about the parks thing. Can't go to my Mum and Dads and sit with them in the garden maintaining social distancing but I can meet them one at a time in the park. But what happens if they're in the park together at the same time I am and our paths cross?

    What is the thinking of opening non-essential shops before you're allowed to go and see your family? Seems a bigger risk.

    Taking people for mugs. Drove to a beauty spot with his wife and kids on his wife's birthday to test his eyesight. Then they had to sit down and stay there for a while as she felt ill.
