ONS is saying it has contributed to up to 57k death in the uk and plums still say it's not deadly
Yeah so not deadly it’s killed almost a million people. And as you say is only 1/200th of its way through the population. What’s 200m people dead between friends?

Hey I just follow the rules, obviously we are all extremely comfortable that a contagious not so contagious virus that's effected less than half a % of the globe is worthy of ruining our kids futures... That's infected not killed.
It is what it is
it is rock and a hard place
yes it is deadly - but has that diminished enough for us to be able to carry on regardless ?
No idea, but disregarding the impact on the economy for millions would also be catastrophic
I dont have the answer - but then im not paid to provide the answer unlike the government
£££££££££££Well it depends how you look at things, I mean smoking contributes to 7 million deaths a year globally but they don't rush to ban tobacco
Acadamy is back Sunday v WBA I expect all age groups at the moment it’s limited to one parent per player allowed to watch.So organised sport comes across as the players and coaches etc... Doesn't seem like that includes several thousand supporters... I wonder how this will effect grassroot football too IE my daughters playing for Coventry and the ability for parents to attend games... They make this about as clear as a misty morning window
You say that but I thought (and I may be wrong
You say that but I thought (and I may be wrong) that the actual % was way higher, if you're asymptomatic you wouldn't even know but you can still infect loads of other people
Coronavirus: Behind the rise in cases in five charts
Extra testing targeting areas with high infection rates and changes to eligibility are both factors.www.bbc.co.uk
Interesting article on the numbers. Whilst not diminishing the impact so far of Covid, the recent rise looks like it's 'not as bad' as the media make out (shock).
I mean I hear what you're saying, but my figure of less than 0.5% is how how many have had it since the start.. 27 million.
Its currently 7 million globally 0.1% so its much lower than 0.5% now, I have no idea how many people are asymptomatic though
Up to 5 times?I mean I hear what you're saying, but my figure of less than 0.5% is how how many have had it since the start.. 27 million.

The 2nd graph in point 2 is a textbook example of a shit graph, extended the x access and it would actually show that the % of cases to testing is rising at a similar level to the last peak.

I agree, BTW I think it's real if that helpsNobody knows do they. I'm getting sick of feeling like a murderer every time I do so much as clear my throat within 20 feet of someone..
Anyway, on topic, if you work on the assumption that covid is real, not made up or a conspiracy, then there is no way in hell you could have fans at football- queuing, toilets, turnstiles, cramped passageways etc, I don't see any possible way that you can do that "safely" if we're at the point of no more than 6 people being in proximity, makes no sense to have that rule then be planning to have a few thousand people getting together

To produce a mortality rate of one percent of all cases asymptomatic too it would need to 15 times not 5 .Up to 5 times?
No idea how accurate that is?
But has been suggested in articles.
But the testing is taking place more in hotspots now so will be skewed by highly contagious errors. Combine that with the notion that the first peak was probably underestimated....
Social distancing will be easy at St Andrews. Just open up the whole stadium, there will be about 8 thousand of us, family groups, plenty of space between each group, simples. In fact we should be the only team allowed supporters

But would it attract locals as well just wanting to see a match?
The situation in Birmingham is quite mixed at present. Some areas are far worse than others (2 active cases where I am). I’m not sure they’ll lock the whole city down, maybe more targeted measures. But it is possible I guess.the biggest problem I suspect is Birmingham is likely to have a local lockdown every now and again and I suspect we won’t be allowed to travel there
We’re not going to have fans back this year. The lockdown will tighten over the coming months and into winter.

It is what it is
1. You're conflating cases with infections and 2. Ignoring that the case rate is despite many millions of people wearing masks, social distancing, isolating, furloughed from work etc etc.
it's only killed over 600 NHS and wider socialcare staff in its path but yeah, pretty harmless all in all.
