Someone needs to tell them where champagne comes from. I'm sure the French will be happy to change the bottle size so the government can claim a Brexit 'win'.

Aren't those stats independent of each other? You've got probabilities to various vaccination statuses, and the propability of being infected with the variant drops as expected in line with the vaccination schedule. You've then got probabilities for those previously infected, and as we already...

The fact that people are employed full time given the level they play at and the crowds they get is astonishing to me. They must be wholly reliant on someone covering losses every year. Its hard enough to find someone prepared to do that for an EFL club with the high profile they have.

Pfizer are working on a vaccine targeting the variant which they say will be ready in March. Not sure if ready means ready to start production or ready to go into arms. Lets hope that provides longer protection.

Isn't there another womens side affiliated with CCFC now? See people on twitter are suggesting the club takes them on but suspect that bridge has been burnt even if it wasn't something that would require financing.

Sounds like there could be more to this then? Have the people that started it got bored now they're aren't racking up massive wins and back to back promotions? Presume the mens side can continue as they won't be full time.

What's happened to the people who persuaded them to change to Cov Utd on the promise of financing the club?

Looks like the campaigning to replace Johnson is gathering pace. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/liz-truss-new-iron-lady-7l5m3nflm

We fucked this up from the start. Other countries masks were mandatory while we allowed exemptions and then allowed people to self declare exemptions with no proof required.

Glad to hear you're on the mend. Chest pains are pretty scary but you feel a complete idiot when it turns out to be nothing. Happened to me in the gym. Suddenly had a massive pain in my chest and was struggling to breathe. Convinced it was game over but turned out I'd pulled a chest muscle. In...

Only data on R rate specifically for the variant I can find is a week old and puts it between 3.5 and 5. Remember the good old days when we were worried it might go over 1?!

America of course being well known for its healthy population and lack of obese people.

Seems it wasn't actually postponed. Salernitana just decided they weren't playing and didn't turn up but the league never agreed to a postponement. Udinese named their side and the officials waited 45 minutes for Salernitana to turn up before abandoning the game.

They also get huge bills for any covid treatment. Mate of mine was working on tour in the US and got it. Was isolating in a hotel and was getting worse so asked for a doctor to come out. $5K for one doctors call out!

Is the 500 limit effectively BCD? I'm sure there was a limit around that when there was no crowds to cover the number of people actually needed to stage a game, press, sponsors etc.

Suspect this might be a case of jump before you're pushed. https://www.skysports.com/cricket/news/12123/12501222/david-bumble-lloyd-retires-from-sky-sports-cricket-after-22-years

A very important point was made on the radio about comparing to last year. When looking at numbers in hospital & ICU you're comparing with an NHS that had basically shut down as much non-covid treatment as possible to enable them to cope with covid. Look at UHCW as an example So while its...

They'll have to play BCD, they aren't going to get kicked out of the league for that. Bit of a farce though if their supporters are then allowed to travel to away games.

People seem to have got it into their heads that this is only happening in the UK and everyone else is just cracking on like nothing has changed when pretty much the opposite is true. We relaxed things far more than anyone else to start off with. When speaking to ex-colleagues still working on...

PCR is the only one you're supposed to take with symptoms isn't it? Isn't the LFT for people without symptoms to check before they go somewhere?
