    This is the strategy SBD. I think it’s in the imperial report. There are two ends to this, vaccine or eventual herd immunity, via the suppression and then loosening of measures, followed by measures again (I don’t want to consider the third) The key in the meantime appears to be the test that...

    Coronavirus

    Me too. Saw it on the news earlier. This is what the people in the boozers, acting like it’s nothing, aren’t getting. Italy has a great healthcare system by all accounts (sick boy also confirmed) and Switzerland said a few days back that its healthcare system could be on its knees in 10...

    Could well be coming again mate. Only minor benefit is the low (free) cost of long term government borrowing. No doubt this will be painful for all but let’s get through this first

    These truly are scary/extraordinary times The job retention scheme appears sensible by the sounds of it. Better than job losses and paying redundancy/notice/job seekers (then lag to economy of reemployment). I just hope people don’t take the piss this as this going to cost us all for a long...

    Just keep them all running, can’t understand why they have ratcheted down stations and trains ?!! Don’t know the reasons though (guessing they’ve got the drivers) but a bizarre decision by TfL

    I agree and cringed as soon as he said it as we all knew what the headlines would say today.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    To be fair Clint I was trying to reflect some balance. There had been a constant stream of negative messages, my point was that the wider country (currently) has a different view - for example PVA (who does make some interesting comments) was ranting about Johnson as soon as he appeared on the...

    Appreciate that, but I was pointing out that the constant abuse he/the government gets on here isn’t necessarily reflective of the wider population. I’ve got a mix of mates (with various political persuasions) and haven’t heard many moans, not because I think anyone thinks the governments...

    I find watching him very uncomfortable to be honest ! I won’t make excuses if he fucks up. What I have tried to do is play devils advocate and flag misinformation about the government approach (of which there is quite a bit, intentional or not)
