I wouldn't be surprised, when you hear of dimwits attacking 5G engineers because it's the man giving them covid or whatever they've read online we're not far behind the US's best loons.

Have a friend in the medical profession who had a patient with cancerous growths on her tongue. Explained to her husband that the treatment would be straightforward to get it out, but he refused it because he wanted Vitamin C as he’d read on Facebook that it was the cure. The cancer then went malignant and she passed away.

This stuff kills and the people spreading it need proper holding to account.

How did he refuse it? Had she given him power of attorney or something?

Other countries have locked down with infection numbers at our death figures. I just wish our government would be honest about the plan

Scotland contributed zero deaths and Northern Ireland 1 I believe, not sure about Wales but it all points to Boris getting it wrong. The devolved governments were right to ignore “the science” according to Boris and follow the science.

Be interesting to see that plotted against average age etc or whether increased ICU spare capacity is a factor.

Won't percentages become less meaningful as the numbers in ICU drop off?

This is what I thought. Unless they believe the numbers still to be accurate as it's all relative - not sure how that can be the case though.

Not really, they can be extrapolated up and down. It's numbers in real terms that are less meaningful

I’m making the point that you can manipulate stats to say anything - just depends which ones you want to use and how you use them.

Probably won’t cost that much in the U.K. The US is historically the world’s worst country at buying drugs because the US government is the biggest buyer in the US but they don’t negotiate the price.

At least you told me off to save Dom coming in later to accuse me of wanting to stay in lockdown for the next 50 years.

My lad has a great day at school today. He's been buzzing about it all evening.
Really well organised. Not sure how they'll do it at full capacity in September though.

Keir Starmer was making the point that libraries are closed so they could be utilised, we made three hospitals from scratch in weeks so why can’t we make temporary classrooms for schools by September.

Personally I worry about any indoor setting where we will be expected to be at normal capacity.
