If you read the article he was given 2 months in June 2018. It isn't June yet. People often outlive these estimates. His wife said his "fight with MND was not ready to be over". Yes, he was clearly ill already, but the illness has caused a premature death from an already limited lifespan, so it has killed him. It's not scaremongering. Most of us will be fine, but plenty of people with underlying health issues will die before they should. One of my mates is diabetic, and this is perfectly treatable, however, without his medication he would be dead. God forbid, as a vulnerable person if he was to succumb to this illness despite being otherwise healthy, you would say 'scaremongering'.How many are from coronavirus?
The 45 year old who had motor neuron disease was told 2 years ago when he was diagnosed that he had 2 years to live.
Yet the story is 45 year old dies from coronavirus. Proper scare mongering.
Obviously it's sad people are dying, of course it is.
Yeah in an old job I worked from home a couple of days per week. I find it much, much more productive, especially if you have an element of flexi-time, I would start working at 7am and finish around 14:30.I usually work at home a day a week, this is my third day at home in a row for probably the first time.
I've never been so productive in all my working life. Even communicating is easier because I can do it as and when I have relevant updates which are worth sharing, which aren't diluted with other less relevant messages.
When you die of MND you die a death far worse than Coronavirus.Because he did Nick. When they tell you you've got x time to live, it doesn't set a timer. He died of coronavirus ultimately but had underlying health conditions.
So. What do we reckon today? School closures? Money for people as well as businesses?
Cant see UBI or anything big like rent/utilities freezes. Increase in SSP and benefits maybe?
A lot of arguing over graphs and axes and how to display the data. I took the data (confirmed cases) and plotted it linearly. If you then offset our data by 15 days we are on exactly the same curve as Italy, presumably why the government are so keen to increase mitigation measures now to slow it down (Vallance said we're three weeks behind the other day though). Also our rate of growth has been higher than theirs for almost every day in March.
I think I shared a graph the other day where instead of cases it was cases per 100,000 which looks a bit better as we have a bit of a higher population.
Was thinking the same about numbers in hospitalProbably the most important figures currently (confirmed cases are pretty useless as we know there are tens of thousands or more carrying it) are available hospital beds and those in intensive care/on ventilators (and therefore available ventilators)

Is what I'm hearing. Wait and see.
Heard an incredible amount of bullshit over the last few days.
Im guessing we wanted to try asking nicely first and have looked at traffic/footfall data and seen it’s not working if so. No one seems to be taking it seriously.
Might be London only at first. I’ve heard that rumour.
All of them Nick. They wouldn’t have died if they didn’t have coronoavirus. You’ve got a life expectancy as well, doesn’t mean if you get hit by a bus tomorrow you died of natural causes.
How does our rate of growth compare with their rate of growth as it was 15 days ago?
What makes you say no one is taking it seriously?
Roads seem fairly empty? I'm going out for a walk shortly. I'll let you know my observations!
I was told by a friend who has sources at the local unicorn farm.Been told by a friend who has sources in Government. It could be worse case planning. But I think we are getting close to lock down.
I didn't mean to sound unsympathetic, it is more the way it is put across. "It's not just old people now as he was 45" as the headlines.
He was 45 and he had a fucking awful disease the poor bloke.
I was working in Brighton yesterday, roads were noticeably quieter, but not deserted by any means.Just from conversations yesterday and general traffic and stuff. Though to be fair it’s changing daily.

The guy is an absolute fucking moron.
