Block T16 has now opened up, so if you didn't fancy sitting in one of the front rows you can now buy near the back without having to POTD.

The problem for me is that on the fringes climate activists are a death cult. The world is going to end in...., the point of no return is....; and when the date passes it is pushed back. The Greta thing is curious. She's the perfect stooge for climate extremists. You can't question her because...

No idea what happened, just kept telling the people at the bar that the drinks were on the tab. Seemed to work.

I must have been the only one on that boat trip who didn't pay for a single drink. Came off plastered too. Not sure how I managed it.

I'm all sorted, thanks for the help chaps.

I tried Mick but they are fully booked, but someone has just pm'd me the Parkstone number so will try them. Cheers for that.

Without wishing to go around in circles, I'm not doing that at all. I said two things. One that the mortality rate of flu is 0.1%. This is fact I think it is fair to say. I then said that Coronavirus is 2%, a figure that has been widely shared. A couple of people, Grendel being one, made...

Cheers, I'll try them on twitter, but thought you had to be a member, but I'll give it a go anyway..

I always go by car to away games, but find myself needing to get the coach next week. SBA is full apparently, so any other coaches going that people know of? Want to avoid club travel if possible.

It's like I keep saying, if the world isn't Monster Munch shaped, why does everything seem to smell like pickled onion? It's obvious, open your eyes!

Oh come on now David. I had a little pop at you earlier for which I apologise, but I am doing nothing of the sort. I just posted a link to the data, the source of which is mainly the WHO. There was absolutely no misrepresentation at all. And anyway, everyone knows the Earth is shaped like a...

Some cases, but not the vast majority, because if they did the outbreak would be far wider as they would have lost complete control. Most people have been traced. In any case, this is accounted for in the estimates. The current mortality rate of closed cases is 7%, but the projection is 2%...

I've heard (but this is third hand so I can't 100% vouch for it) that he is not enjoying it up there and is quite home sick. Always liked Willis, glad it is going well for him on the pitch at least, but we don't miss him.

Relax, i was jesting. I'm genuinely not sure what your point is though. I was simply addressing the claim that COVID-19 has a mortality rate only 4 times that of flu. This is simply not the case. As it stands, from closed cases, COVID-19 has a CFR of 7%. There will be variations by country...

Yeah, I was going to ignore it because it's utter bollocks tbf.

It's the same website.

No, it is updated by the hour: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ The live data backs up entirely what was said in the section relating to death rates, so there is no significant update to that since it was published.

Not correct. It is 2/100 infected. Out by a magnitude of 10. The early estimate, following very detailed statistical analysis and models is 2%, so 20 x flu. The same happened with SARS, the WHO gave an early estimate of 3%, but it ended up being nearly 10%. This is because people calculate...

It may well be overstated for the reason given, but equally you cannot declare that the mortality rate is '0.4%', citing the cruise ship as the only source of sample data - it is an incredibly small sample on which to make that assertion, especially as only 10 of the 700 cases has the patient...

No, it isn't. It is 20-40x. Since when has flu had a mortality rate of 0.5%? So far this flu season, about 0.05% of people who caught the flu have died from the virus in the U.S., according to CDC data. In the study published Feb. 18 in the China CDC Weekly, researchers found a death rate...
