Sat in my car outside of work drinking lukewarm coffee from a flask. Now who’s jealous.

 

[skybluetony176]

That’s odd. One guy who posts in here who lives in Spain said the lockdown even applied to where he lived - grand Canaria where there are hardly any cases?

Not odd at all. Have you ever tried driving from Barcelona to the Canaries?

 

[Johhny Blue]

Set to be 24c later on this afternoon and getting warmer up until Monday in sunny Verona, annoyingly though and surprisingly, Goof Friday isn’t a public holiday.

We don't even have a Goof Friday in Canada

Nor the US

If Italy peaked 6 days ago they said we are 14 days behind them we are gonna peak in 8 days ?

I think we get too hung up on all that sort of stuff, I find it frankly pretty shocking that we accept that its fine to benchmark against a country that has been overrun with it, but that's a deliberate policy to try and defend the abysmal response of this government.

Seeing all these right wingers triggered is actually hilarious. I didn't think there was such a thing as a right wing snowflake but boy have I been proved wrong.

The right have been calling every man and his dog snowflakes for the last few years, but the reality is they are the biggest snowflakes around.

Like defending Tommy Robinson's violence, but in absolute tears when someone pours milkshake on Sir Nigel and begging for the guy to be jailed for assault. It's hilarious.

Or when a certain poster on here said Operation Last Gasp is a great joke, but suggesting Boris should take it on the chin is the worst sentence ever written in history and that person is a c**t of the highest order.

They can give it but they really can't take it. The hypocrisy from these bootlickers is mind boggling, but also very funny.

Just had a look at a map worldwide of cases? Why are there so few cases in Africa compared to the rest of the world?

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Looks like a few countries ahead of us are loosening the lockdown restrictions throughout the month, doubt we'll see anything like that till at least the start of May

The first study of people who have recovered shows a correlation between age and ability to produce the antibody. Buts its the other way round to likelihood of contracting it- the younger you are the more likely you are to catch it again, the older you are the more antibody you produce and the less likely you are to catch it again

Low antibody levels raise questions about coronavirus reinfection risk

As one leader I think Kenya said they aren’t testing anybody

Because they can’t afford the tests

Less travel internationally?

 

[shmmeee]

Didn’t one of their leaders get asked why there’s so few cases and that’s exactly what he said.

Also general reporting won’t be as good as places with developed healthcare systems.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Cases have nearly doubled, awful day for the UK

and the shambles continues

Most U.K.-Made Ventilators Won’t Arrive Ahead of Virus Peak

We could be talking 3000 deaths a day at the peak in reality. Scary stuff, I think we’d do well to be below 20k now.

Question is will we peak like Italy with looser lockdown? If so then it’s fair to say we’ve played a blinder, if not then questions to be answered.

Italy cases have gone up by 800 today on yesterdays figure which is a big increase, the deaths have dropped though

Today doesn't include Northern Ireland either- thats a massive rise in cases. We are some way away from the peak yet.

Shmeee is still spreading educated nonsense I see.

Testing has massively in creased as well.

We went over this yesterday. Positive cases will go up as you increase testing as you are no longer just recording the most serious that present to hospital.

You either need to wait until the amount of tests tops out or look at the percentage of positive cases.

Stop just looking at headline figures

Italy
Intensive care numbers down again
deaths:552
Recovered: 2099
Tested positive: 1000 something

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

14k tests is still a way away from the 25k we were promised 3 weeks ago

You'll see something very rare from me here.

My apologies I misread your post as talking about deaths.

Sorry about that

You have no need to apologise, I thought I was misreading somewhere

It is but at least it is still almost twice as much as they were managing this time last week.

That said the level of testing is a national scandal

Testing was ready in January according to Hancock. There's been so much bullshit about testing I wouldn't believe anything until it's confirmed as happening.

What nonsense? Not sure I’ve made any statements TBH.
