Sorry, not a football thread (what’s the point at the moment though) Two things where people can really help with the current situation (one is time allowing, which I appreciate many won’t be able to do, the other relatively easy if you are showing symptoms) COVID-19 symptom tracker (developed...

Only time will the what actions/measures etc have worked or not. Nassim appears to have conveniently forgotten the initial steps/strategy that gave us a head start over certain European countries. Also, the fact that by basing our decisions on modelling/remodelling the strategy was...

Agree, the confirmed cases will carry on rising for days yet, especially if testing increases and until the benefits of the lockdown are hopefully reflected (in 2+ weeks I’m guessing). I was talking about hoping to keep deaths numbers under control (which will obviously become harder as the...

hmmm I’m still not quite sure about the numbers off sick (I know that’s what they’ve said). That’s a very high proportion though. They were already ratcheting down the stops/stations and trains last week.

Sorry I meant those in charge of ensuring procurement/distribution teams are operating effectively

Agree with you and Spurs city away kit, a likely anomaly, with far tougher days to come but let’s just hope they can keep a semblance of control over the numbers.

Too early to tell about lockdown, they thought it would take 10-14 days to start showing in the numbers. They’ll be plenty of difficult days ahead no doubt. I can’t believe I’m writing this but over the weekend it felt like anything under 100 deaths per day over the past 3-4 days wouldn’t have...

Just seen 465 on sky - the standard did their maths wrong but not sure sky’s right either. Ballpark

yeah. Just come through ‘A further 28 people – aged between 47 and 93 – have died after testing positive for coronavirus in England, NHS England said, bringing the total deaths in the UK to 463’

Nice to end the day on a positive note so here is goes... Dyson have confirmed receipt of an order of 10k ventilators from the UK (they are also building a further 5k which they are donating around the world, 1k to UK) Total deaths has risen but only to 463 (so I think 30 in total today)...

great documentary on Brazil (and how they ended up with that weirdo in charge) on Netflix called Edge of Democracy

In terms of testing I can only share some of the things I’ve read.... Chris Witty mentioned a while back that testing followed by tracing at tracking is best utilised at start of outbreak and then on the other side of the peak. Testing currently helps a bit in relation to knowing total numbers...

Would be shocked if self employed aren’t addressed tomorrow

Exactly Dave, either way. I’m not on here trying to defend the government so much as trying to get some to realise this isn’t just a load of stuff happening on the hoof. Yes, they had to accelerate the actions but these things have been in the pipeline for a while Anyone who thinks you just...

Agree with all of that, in particular London. I think ROS mate Cummings wanted London locked down 10 days ago ! ps I still haven’t heard a good explanation with TfL and the tubes. Bizarre that they have reduced numbers/stations but left it available for all. Either leave it running at full...

Agree, some idiots will still go out. I’m not going into detail with the whole reactions/measures again as it’s been done to death (the government have said for weeks they would bring in certain measures at the right time based on scientific advice (not just medical but behaviour/mental health...

Yep, all the governments fault Fernando

Agree Clint. Could be avoided but won’t be, thick and selfish not a good combo !

He apparently also refused to confirm whether his/his family’s companies would benefit from any of the government assistance ! I know Johnson has his haters but hes not on the same planet as that dangerous clown !
