    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Does anyone else get confused by the efficiency percentages that get thrown around? When it was posted that the Pfizer jab has 100% efficiency in kids I googled to check what it was in adults as I had a feeling it was lower than that. You get all sorts of figures thrown back ranging from 52 -...

    Things that annoy you

    Does nobody put their rubbish in bins these days? Pictures all over social media of parks and other public spaces left in a disgusting state. How hard is it to put rubbish in a bin or bag it up and take it home?

    Was reading about the famed herd immunity and one of the biggest barrier to achieving it is not being able to vaccinate enough people due to the groups who have to be excluded for some reason (those being treated for other things, age restrictions, pregnant etc). If we can open up another group...

    Guns in america

    They're spot on. There's so much evidence as to where the problem lies but a total refusal to acknowledge it let alone do anything about it. Probably posted this before but John Oliver did a good series on this on the Daily Show years back. There's another 2 parts that follow on from this one...

    Wasps losses and ricoh return catalyst

    Variation on the theme. If one of our supporters suddenly became a billionaire and was happy to chuck money at the club you could buy Wasps, then buy CCFC and either flip Wasps to someone who actually wanted to own them or just make them run self sufficiently. Would be the quickest route to...

    Jch

    Intrigued by the idea JCHs failure to score in his second spell here was all down to Robins. His record prior to turning up here was hardly setting the world on fire. Given the manner of his departure in his first spell here surely you have to at least consider there may have been an attitude...

    TV

    I got an LG for my Mum and Dad and was impressed enough that I also got (a more expensive!) one for myself. As much as anything the os is good and has all the apps I need built in. Can get Netflix, Amazon, Apple TV, Disney+, YouTube, iPlayer, 4oD etc without needing to switch to another device...

    Was just reading an interview with the MD of county cricket at the ECB, Neil Snowball which suggests wearing a mask as a likely condition of entry to the cricket over the summer.

    Yep. Dad got the call from his GP and for some reason had to go to a health centre on the other side of the city. Mum is at the same GP but got a letter to sign up for Stoneleigh. I'm only 5 minutes away from them but with a different GP and had mine at the health centre down the road. All a bit...

    My Dads just had his call as well. His appointment is for next week so under 10 weeks since the first. Mums got her booked in as well, hers was booked in at the same time as the first one so that's a 12 week gap.

    new champions league format

    Are they deliberately trying to make competitions less exciting? Expanding everything and having more games isn't the way forward. It also sounds like a fix to ensure clubs they want are in it so basically if a 'big' name doesn't finish high enough in the league to get in they can add them in...

    Wasps losses and ricoh return catalyst

    How many teams in England have local businessmen as owners these days? We seem to be long past that and onto people who can happily chuck away £10m plus every season.

    Derek Chauvin Trial

    Obviously don't know the ins and outs of the US legal system but given its all on video its hard to see how a not-guilty verdict would be possible. He's been charged with 2nd and 3rd degree murder. Quirk of the US legal system means if he was charged with 2nd and the jury through it was only...

    Wonder if other countries copied the 12 week gap? If they didn't it gives them scope to catch up and get people fully vaccinated before us. Although obviously its not a race against each other, we're going to need countries to be vaccinated before we open travel back up. Are they picking up the...
