Quarantining now does lend new meaning to ‘after the horse has bolted’

Oh definitely, fucking stupid decision without a doubt

Why am I seeing 15 deaths today on the news sites?
I don’t normally follow it so where are you getting the numbers from?

Typo, should say 15 not 95! Apologies

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

only 15 deaths and under 1000 cases! We’re beating this (yes I know there is a lag in the deaths but look at the weekly Monday trend)

I can imagine that you look forward to the results like watching the football scores come in.

 

[shmmeee]

15 deaths is a great result for a Sunday and under 1k cases at last. Still far too many, but looking lots better.

Will be interesting to see where we are in two weeks now we really really out of lockdown. Localised protests and parties won’t have had much impact.

I didn't watch todays episode of Hancocks half hour but Jenny Harries is getting it tight on twitter.

Usually only happens when she is saying something completely different to what she said last time.

Jenny "face masks are a waste of time and mass gatherings are fine" Harries, what could go wrong!

Today she has claimed that as 1 in 1,700 people has covid you'd have to meet 1,700 before you are at risk of catching it. She also said we need to practice good respiratory hygiene whatever that means.

 

[Brylowes]

surprised at that to be honest. I know a couple by me who have put protocols in place.
The hairdressers where my wife works was given their opening date and a list of guidelines and protocols they have to implement weeks ago.

We have been told absolutely nothing at all since Closing on the 20th March, in fact you’d

I have grave concerns, we are opening to a very different landscape and the restrictions

Seriously had enough now.

But that's not how contagious pathogens work? You could meet 1 person and they have it or you could meet 20000 and not catch it/

Global report: South Korea has Covid-19 second wave as Israel ponders new lockdown

Korea say they now have a second wave.

Thought second waves were impossible as the great epidemiologists of SBT say?

They've had 17 new cases on Sunday. Hardly cause for a lockdown is it? Do you get erect when you see bad news? Genuine question

it's all relative though, considering they've only had around 300 deaths 17 is an outbreak.
Sporadic outbreaks are happening in several countries. There has been talk before of localised lock downs and i can see that happening.

It would also mean if you were asymptomatic you’d infect 1800 people. She is probably the worst out of all the ones they have on-I miss the one who told the truth which is probably why she never came back.

But joking aside how the fuck have they spent 11 million quid in 3 months?

There are many software developers pointing out you can run whole companies for years on a couple of million.

11 million quid, apps don;t cost that much to develop even when they are successful and take years to develop

They've have rolled in costs of various people working within NHSX into that I imagine. I posted on here a while ago about NHSX, created by Hancock and headed by one of his cronies was an utterly useless entity.

But 11 million is still a massively over the top amount. You would spend only a fraction of this if you started a company and fully staffed it.

Over 3 months it's over 120k a day

 

[fernandopartridge]

ONS figures are out now, 54k deaths with covid on the death cert up to 12 June.

Wales not recording any excess deaths now, so you could argue they've brought it under control (by doing something different from little England).

, it’s almost as if they want one so they can say ‘I told you so’ and blame Boris and prove us that are saying there won’t be one wrong

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Can’t wait to hear what boris has to say tonight about next Saturday! Finally good times ahead, get me to the pub

Don’t say that we might have brought it under control!!!!! You’ll get slated on here

Fuck me you are a c**t.

No one has ever said they don't want things to get better and no one has ever said that the numbers are declining.

We want people to be careful where as you being the sick fuck you are don't care and your "Boris laddddddd" to look good.
