Like I said, it’s a shame. But being kept indoors and staying on the computer too long can do funny things. Hope he’s OK

That’s a belter. Patronising, understanding, nice and a pelter all in one.

It would set me off anyway.

Great news, it seems as it was only done as a precaution

What's he bed blocking for?

Given that no 10 tells lies constantly, quite difficult to really believe any of this stuff now.

PS: Isn't non-invasive respiratory support oxygen? They're contradicting themselves. How is he getting the oxygen?

Am I being punked or not I can’t tell

 

[skybluetony176]

Yeah no need for the sarky comment though is there when im trying to ask a reasonable question, how the fuck was i meant to know that

You’d have read it already in any news outlet labelled by some as “fake news”. Its been well covered.

Whats this 'Hydroxychloroquine' like in terms of being used to fight the disease? Seems USA are going big on it.... India have now lifted the ban on exporting it

One of many drugs being mass tested for potency against Covid. I’d reiterate though that anti viral drugs currently being developed are the best shot at an effective treatment in the shortest time but that’s not to say there definitely isn’t one already out there.

Just don’t get your hopes up

tbf you've been jumped on a bit recently, so I don't *particularly* want to add to that but I think it comes down to a spot of critical thinking, as opposed to just blindly accepting what people tell you... and challenging what they tell you. You might after that still decide they're right, but you would at least come across a bit less like a spokesman for Righties R Us.

Anyway, the last bit kind of broke my own rule; this isn't necessarily about left v right, it's very different to normality so, in the interests of sanity, I'll leave you to it. Hell, I even liked one of your posts the other day

I think thats why had the epic meltdown- defending the indefensible for such a prolonged period would send anyone a bit nuts.

An epic meltdown that attracted more separate postive likes than any of your ill informed and anti democratic tripe and 2 PMs of support one of which specifically mentioned you as a reason they can’t be bothered to post on the forum until this is over

I’m glad you’re getting the support you need at this time.

They'll be back in 2024 then...

 

[skybluetony176]

Trump has a stake in the company that makes the drug, that should tell you all you need to know.

Wouldn’t surprise me. Either that or one of his buddies does.

Once again you started to morph into your twitter hero Lies Reid

I think when you go back and look at some of what you wrote you’ll be a bit embarrassed. That’s not me having a go, but a bit like PVA you go so far into a position you can’t retreat from it

 

[Ring Of Steel]

apparently India blocked imports of the drug and Trump threatened them, so they promptly lifted the ban

David even at my most agitated I am more rational and considered than you when you are at your calmest. You attempt the insult game but actually are pretty poor at it

I made 10 posts between 8.25 at the announcement point and 9.37 - which I’m particular are you referring to?

I didn’t look at anything from last night I was more on about your comments on ‘the left’ this morning.

And so it begins...

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Also you’ve clearly spent a bit of time counting likes and noting posting timeframes. Just give it a break for a few days!

That's the one Trump keeps telling people to take isn't it. Normally swiftly followed by his scientific advisors saying not to. In news that will shock nobody seems he stands to benefit personally.

You ignored at least three links to the footage of Boris saying in person he shook hands with Coronavirus sufferers while linking the wrong interview as proof that it’s fake news before disappearing in a huff. How is that either rational or considered?

 

[chiefdave]

No one wanted him dead

You’re an insane caricature

That's not the the only one either.

[itsabuzzard]

Careless. Especially for a man whose whole career has been based on pointing out missing apostrophes. Or have you moved on?

Relax. Phones fucked.

Is anyone else praying that he didn’t go and see his mum on Mother’s Day like he said he was hoping to on the very day we were all told not to.

Think No 10 said he Skyped her

 

[chiefdave]

No idea. It properly kicked off on our conference call though.

People that carried holiday over or brought some are being told 'no refunds' essentially, and they have to use it in the next two months.

So everyone is prisoner at home and when it lifts have a six month period where they can only take 2 weeks off. Less than actually.

Again, it isn't a major problem if you get some perspective on the grand scheme of things. But it has still pissed me right off.

Seems to be a few companies using it as an excuse to do whatever they like and ignore normal HR procedures. We've been told no holiday will be allowed once we're back and this years raining allowance will be split between the next two years.

And the other key thing is that it diverts production towards people who don't need it, rather than those that do.

Disgusting. People in the US have died ODing on this since Trump started promoting it as a miracle cure.

I sincerely hope so. Still a pretty stupid thing to say though only hours after we were told not to.

Oh I stand 100% by those in fact i can say with certainty absolute certainty if there is a recovery it will be suggested he lied about the illness was not really ill and was an attempt to create much needed popularity

It must be quite humbling for you to realise that you're just like the rest of us. It made me smile, anyway. My work is done.

Of course. There will also be people that say the earth is flat and the queen is a lizard.

I’ve just read 758 deaths in England today. Need to double check this.

UK coronavirus death rate hits new high as 758 die in last 24 hours in England alone and total victims passes 6,000
