Anyone who has to go to work to help people is a hero from NHS staff to supermarket staff, bus drivers and postmen.

Also why just care about the frontline staff? Porters and cleaners are fucking vital.

There was a suggestion yesterday for you to get a dictionary. If you did go to "F" (It's between "E" & "G") and look up "Frontline".
No-one said all jobs aren't important.

This is an interesting conspiracy theory! (sorry if it's already been posted amongst the previous 377 pages)

Worth the read- and definitely thought provoking.... or confirming! This was sent to me.. not my information.
SOMETHING IS FISHY!!
Wuhan to Shanghai = 839km
Wuhan to Beijing = 1,152km
Wuhan to Milan = 15,000km
Wuhan to NY = 15,000km
The Coronavirus started in Wuhan yet there is no effect of Coronavirus in nearby Beijing or Shanghai but many deaths in Italy, Iran, European countries and USA.
All business areas of China are now safe.
Something is fishy.
America is not just blaming China without a reason.
Even today, India is locked down but all the cities of China are open. China has also announced the opening of Wuhan from April 08. Not a single leader in China has tested positive for the deadly Coronavirus.
Something is fishy.
The virus has ruined many economies around the world. Many have had to close their borders in an attempt to contain and control the spread of the Coronavirus. Thousands have lost their lives, millions have now got this disease, countless people have been locked in their homes and many countries have placed their citizens on lock down.
Something is fishy.
The Coronavirus originated from the city of Wuhan in China and has now reached every corner of the world, but the virus did not reach China's capital Beijing and China's Economic Capital Shanghai, located in close proximity to Wuhan itself.
Something is fishy
Today Paris is closed, New York is closed, Berlin is closed, Delhi is closed, Mumbai is closed, Tokyo is closed, the world's major economic and political centers are closed, but Beijing and Shanghai are open. No Coronavirus effect is seen in either cities. There were only a few cases but the virus had no real effect on Beijing and Shanghai.
Something is fishy.
Beijing is the city where all the leaders of China live, including their military leaders. There is no lock down in Beijing.
Something is fishy
Shanghai is the city that runs China's economy. It is the economic capital of China, where all the rich people of China live and run major industries. There is no lock down here, there is no effect of the Coronavirus there.
Something is fishy
Beijing and Shanghai are the areas adjoining Wuhan. The virus from Wuhan reached every corner of the world, but the virus did not affect Beijing and Shanghai.
Something is fishy
Another big thing is, that the worldwide share market has fallen by almost half. In India also the Nifty has gone from 12 thousand to 7 thousand, but the share market of China was at 3000 and just merely dropped to 2700.
Something is fishy
This leaves one to speculate that the Coronavirus is a bio-chemical weapon of China, which China used to carry out destruction in the world in order to gain economic supremacy.
China has now put this virus under control, maybe they also have the antidote/ vaccine that they are not sharing with the world ever or will do when it is in their best interest to do so.
Something is fishy
Hollywood stars, Australia's Home Minister, Britain's Prime Minister and Health Minister, Spain's Prime Minister's wife, Canada's Prime Minister's wife, and Britain's Prince Charles, among others, have contracted the Coronavirus, but NOT A SINGLE POLITICAL LEADER IN CHINA, NOT A SINGLE MILITARY COMMANDER in China have tested positive for Coronavirus.
SOMETHING IS FISHY!!!!

We have not yet peaked, the reported deaths aren't what happened on that day, they're just what has been reported that day. I think we'll get to mid April before we've peaked (being optimistic).

To be fair i did read an article (cant find the link now) which stated we are actually 7-10 days behind Italy and Spain not the 10-14 reported.

This due, mainly to the fact that we left our borders open, and the apparent lack of checks at airports, ferry terminals etc.

I am hoping, really hoping this is the case, if we can keep any death rate below 10k, although horrendous, then even the most ardant leftie would have to doff their cap to the government and scientists
Click to expand...

It isn't a left / right issue, you've come up with an arbitrary number of 10k deaths. At the end of the day that isn't the measure, the measure is how many were genuinely avoidable. If there are avoidable deaths the government has not done a good job. We've lost a few medical professionals and allied health professionals already, one might argue they should be avoidable with proper PPE. I know medical staff have died in Italy, but using a country that has seen its health system overrun is not a measure of success.

Mate there was a suggestion yesterday you should get a brain. It goes behind your eyes and between your ears.

You did mean the cleaners and porters so don't give me that. If you did your just say NHS staff.

Latest theory I heard was something to do with engineers secretly drilling dangerous toxins into these 5G masts at 8pm on thursdays, using the clap for NHS as a suppression to the noise they make. Brilliant.

The figures only refer to deaths in hospitals. I hope you’re right, but not sure we’ve seen the peak yet . There are reports of care homes being told not to send residents to hospital and only treat them there

Thirteen died last week at one nursing home not in hospital so did they count on the official figures don’t think they did. The true number of deaths might shock us.

I would venture to suggest that won't turn out to be true, however there is no point arguing as nobody knows for sure, its a little risky for any company to build in the assumptions you'll automatically qualify. If you have the cashflow to cover, why would you be given the cash at the potential expense of companies that can't- I don't think that is an unreasonable point for the govt to make. They will be asking companies to demonstrate why they cannot meet the expense themselves, that will be cashflow statement & management accounts.

Which is why governments are being careful with their figures. They are trying to avoid all out panic and I think they are playing down the severity of it all to calm us.

Which is why I think the 2-3 week reassessment was put out. Mislead people to keep them quiet.

I don’t think it’s that I think it’s more to do with a lack of resources and priorities, which of course is very sad.

Actually I didn't say there are "restrictions" to claiming at all, you are bullshitting once again. Anyone can claim once it goes live, there are no "restrictions", however it is looking likely that the govt will review claims to see who genuinely needs and who is taking a bit of a punt (Spurs, Liverpool etc). Stop telling lies and move along to someone else who does fancy a row with you.

Netherlands has lowest daily death increase in a week

The country's coronavirus deaths rose by 101 on Monday to a total of 1,867, the Dutch public health institute said.

Those who have tested positive for the virus rose by 952 to 18,803 - a smaller rise than Sunday's 1,224.



More lowering numbers!

I dunno, I find it hard to believe that we've cracked it just yet but I'll take the good news alright, and lets hope this is the turn and we're getting on top of it.

Have a pleasant evening, all, hope everyone stays safe and well no matter what cross words got chucked about on here, I'm sure its just frustration
