    Inter-species transmission does occur but is rare and quite often goes no further than the initial host it was transferred to. People also tend to die quickly in such cases because their immune system isn't set up to cope with it in any way. It's the rare instances when they are then...

    Mine clearly. Don't know how he got by on that pauper's estate he got.

    I way just making an observation on the way you come across, not name calling. As I said I thought you'd be massively supportive and you were.

    As much as I dislike him so do I, just as much as I do everyone with this virus. But I can't help but feel it will miraculously start to clear up when the figures start to improve and we go past the peak. That's my prediction anyway.

    Yes the plan to get rid of the bridge for at-level access via pedestrian crossing with people citing disruption to traffic flow and safety fears. Failing to mention that someone was seriously injured because kids were throwing chunks of paving slabs off the bridge. And the guy that died after...

    That caricature of British noble eccentricity the Marquis of Bath. If it wasn't for the massive inherited wealth I'd quite like the mad bastard.

    Well as people were told to stay put she buggered off to the country. I'm not massively anti-royal and I actually quite like Liz - she knows the score and what's expected of her. But when she eventually goes I can see Charles adding massively to the republican voice because he likes to meddle...

    Perhaps he could concentrate his efforts on all those ill people around the world in hospital? I think HM has got more than enough lackeys and flunkeys looking after her. I did see that the Queen was on and I thought "I bet Dom posts something about how great she is". Thanks for not...

    Trump has always been 'a week from now' (apart from when he was dismissing it as fake news). His idiocy will be responsible for thousands, if not tens of thousands, of deaths. But he's winning the ratings war and that's what really matters.

    I agree. Using what Birmingham did with Brindley Place as inspiration they could've made this quite a destination with entertainment and dining next to the canal, possibly even with a bit of residential (which has been done to a degree with the student blocks). But instead it was chosen to be a...

    Do you think we will learn after this is all over?

    I think we'll see more of WFH etc, but it will depend on how the productivity looks I guess. I think beforehand people had been arguing for it but the older more luddite board members/managers would have resisted it and have had to have it forced on them. If it shows a better more efficient way...

    You're probably right but there is a danger with that. Shutting down in that short time frame means having to increasingly become self-sufficient in terms of food/power etc. While I've no issue with that on the whole it does give an 'in' to increasingly rampant nationalism, fear of foreigners...

    CCFC puts players and staff on Furlough

    That's why the big clubs are furloughing non-playing staff but not players. Wouldn't cover the time it takes to lace up their boots. And claiming £2.5k a month on a salary of half a million a month would look churlish and a PR disaster. Not that furloughing non-playing staff isn't. If you can...

    CCFC puts players and staff on Furlough

    Read the first line. I mention all those things and the difference in reporting. But you can't tell me that the standard response on here to any Wasps story wouldn't be to look at it in the most negative way possible. Like certain papers do with Sterling and other footballers or Kate/Meghan...

    Clutching at straws but as more people recover and will have the anti-bodies in their system the more potential raw material we have to create a vaccine.

    Yep, well be seeing the fallout of this for years to come due to the increased susceptibility of those that had it, esp severe cases, picking up secondary infections in future. Worst case is this virus mutates enough for re-infection to be more likely. Spread quickly but not have the ability to...

    Mask or no mask?

    I think he was saying people's behaviour today will be twice as bad as yesterday rather than it affecting the 'figures'. If it does affect the figures we won't see it for two weeks or so as infections take hold of people and then their treatment over the following days.

    Do you think we will learn after this is all over?

    Nope. Back to normal. Cars everywhere for work (and visiting people they've not seen in a while), everyone will be wanting to get away ASAP after being cooped up. Everyone will be eating out or getting fast food as a treat so rubbish will be back. It will have given more ammo to the...
