    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    That makes sense. Do we know what the pre-vaccine percentages for hospitalisations and deaths are? Can that be extracted from the PHE data?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    This is an interesting story. https://www.insideedition.com/icelandic-study-shows-4-day-workweek-trial-is-an-overwhelming-success-and-possible-blueprint-for Wonder how predictable who will think its a good idea and who will think its outrageous will be :D

    Completely agree with Grendel on this, there has to be a point where the balance tips in favour of economic interests. My issue is I have no trust in this government to not greatly favour the economy over public health. As Wisdom says you've got the likes of the BMA very strongly saying masks...

    Is my maths wrong because what Javid said about cases and what Saddlebrains said about the impact of the vaccine, with the caveat I don't know where he got that info from or how accurate it is, equates to 15K hospitalisations and 4K deaths a day. That can't be right so what sort of numbers are...

    New kit information

    Singers had dark blue and pink halves in 1889 so that sounds plausible.

    New season - no restrictions on attendance

    Good idea. I'm block 20 with all the OAPs so they should all be vaccinated!

    Sevilla friendly

    Bit of a weird one. Wouldn't have thought we'd be having a training camp in Europe given the current issues so flying out for one friendly seems an unnecessary expense. Not to mention the hassle of needing everyone to isolate on return.

    Got to trust Robins on this one. He knows the player and will no doubt have made it clear exactly what will be expected of him. Hopefully there's clauses in any contract that allow him to be dismissed if he starts causing trouble. We all know there is a lot of talent there so if he's finally...

    Haven't they said for years its ANPR but never actually used it. Sure you could easily blag it into the car park without paying. Whenever I've used I've just told the chap on the gate I've pre-paid and been waved in without them checking anything. Pretty sure you can log in to the website and...

    All purpose cricket thread

    They'll need a bit of experience in there. If Stokes is in then you're probably looking for a couple more experienced pros, one high up the batting order and one bowler. I wouldn't like to bet against a call having been made to Anderson and / or Broad to see if they're up for it. But...

    Beginning to wonder if Javid has been appointed in an attempt to make Hancock seem competent. There was also this, "Health Secretary Sajid Javid says it will be up to shops and transport operators to have their own policy on masks.", who is he expecting to enforce that? If Tesco say masks only...

    The impression I get from looking at what experts are saying about it is they've gone back to something along the lines of the original herd immunity plan. Let it rip through the country over the summer and hope the NHS can cope with any surge and fingers crossed its over and done with before...

    There's some places on that little industrial estate right next to the Ricoh but imagine they fill up pretty quickly.

    Would like to see some positives but the states that are removing restrictions the fastest, which seems to be the southern states on the whole, are seeing numbers surge. Although as every state does their own figures its hard to be sure how accurate they are. Florida in particular has been...
