I dunno avoiding social contact is my main aim at the school gates.

Then you’re an eejit. We are trying to limit contact as much as possible because the fewer people moving the slower the disease spreads. Don’t be a knob. Stay at home. Birds won’t shag you cos you aren’t scared of the virus.

Even him. No atheists in a fox hole, no anti semites in an ICU.

I think since we’ve changed tack with testing the numbers aren’t worth much, hence the move to deaths which doesn’t depend on strategy as much. Regardless let’s hope so. Three data points to make a trend remember.

Here’s a good article explaining what we’re getting wrong. In a nutshell: comms are terrible, science isn’t clear, strategy is high risk for no obvious reward, and we seem to be delaying mostly because of very shaky “behavioural science” than any actual medical or economic reason. Also our...

This is a joke. No one is going to not take a vaccine because it came from da joos.

Hhahahahahaha. “Have you ever been to South Korea” hahahahgahahahaha Is that your new “did you go to the game” get the fuck out of a conversation you’re losing line? My sister in law lived there for two years, not sure what relevance that has to being able to read publicly available data.

We have left. We left in January.

Was going to say, a few of the far left will have a dilemma if the vaccine is Israeli.

You’re confused. 80% is 80%. When (if) herd immunity is reached the virus doesn’t have the hosts to reach the final 20%, it’s nothing to do with symptom reporting. You’re also confused about what’s being proposed and why. Leaving aside the fact that we literally don’t know what’ll happen when...

Bet he’s racked up some serious hours the last couple of years TBF.

Why would you say that? Even the worse case models only predict 80%

Was reading Andy Burnhams thread on the swine flu response and he was saying similar. Firstly you need daily briefings. Secondly you need a trusted contact ideally the CMO/CSA and everyone else to STFU. I get the “don’t tel people everything or they’ll panic” theory, but I think it’s bunkum in...

Yes. Which makes it even more criminal that our government seems to have been sat around doing nothing for months and is now changing its mind every three seconds about its strategy and communicating through leaks to preferred newspapers. I don’t blame anyone for looking around the world...

This is rather worrying, considering different testing regimes it’s hard to compare cases country to country, but deaths should be pretty similar throughout. Plotting deaths like in this FT article suggests two worrying things: 1) EU countries are tracking well ahead of China 2) even the success...

I’m a 5th level Pangolin in D&D...

Funny you should use that example, I was just reading a thread from a GP saying we’ve got the same problem here!

Only when you work your magic sweetheart.

Case in point.

Would take the same result as Shrewsbury.
