This interview is quite troubling. The interviewee is an expert in contagious disease and wrote a book a few years ago predicting this virus.
Amongst other things, he reckons we haven't seen anything yet and as soon as the Chinese people come out of isolation the virus wil sky rocket again, so their apparent recovery is misleading.
It's believed to be 10-15 times deadlier than the flu amongst experts.
Estimates of around 500,000 deaths in the coming months.
Hand sanitisers probably don't work to prevent this virus. Breathing is all it takes to get infected.

In Britain or worldwide?
Cool story broExtreme measures coming up
ICallum Hudson-Odoi now confirmed and Chelsea are in isolation as a result. Talk that this morning they may well cancel all Premier games this weekend.
He ignored you very early on and the accidentally switched you on?I’m gif guy
Edit; I think you meant to say you’ve not noticed me on here but you said you have noticed me mate.
You have though really
Where's the evidence we are heading for an italy type situation. The very plan is to stop that
Or save them long term as we will have herd immunity. They’ve explained why. And it wasn’t Bojo making the decisions!!I think the season is done, can't see any more games being played (maybe this weekend might still go ahead, but that'll be it).
Now it's just a case of whether they void it or not. Either way lots of clubs are probably going to launch legal action, could get messy.
Yeah, by doing nothing. It's a disgraceful reaction from the government and it's going to cost lives.
nah, really just haven't noticed him.I
He ignored you very early on and the accidentally switched you on?
You mean like the up 10k cases they spoke about yesterdayWith so many footballers claiming to have it the maths tells you we are already into the several thousand cases of infection irrespective of the published numbers
Find that odd. Every contract my company had contains a force majeure clauseWould you believe it Otis??
An Examination of British Sport Security Strategies, Legislation, and Risk Management Practices
very little about business continuity and certainly nothing in the efl guidance. This is as close as a business continuity plan for football. I think the reality is that one one has even considered this situation or any situation that means a whole league has to finish before it’s finished
1000 involved in the premier league. Probably 5-10 cases we know of. That is a high percentage.You mean like the up 10k cases they spoke about yesterday
Yep but they are invincible so take risks others don’t1000 involved in the premier league. Probably 5-10 cases we know of. That is a high percentage.
If 0.5 to 1.0 % is high1000 involved in the premier league. Probably 5-10 cases we know of. That is a high percentage.
Or save them long term as we will have herd immunity. They’ve explained why. And it wasn’t Bojo making the decisions!!
1000 in the premier league? Nah that would be every single player and coach1000 involved in the premier league. Probably 5-10 cases we know of. That is a high percentage.
No we know better the situation in the uk, they gave said further measures will be bought in but need to be brought in at the right timeThe fact we are the only ones going down this route scares me. Do we know better than everyone else? I doubt it.
Are you a doctor?I'm done with you confirmation bias seeking cunts.
The best bit was the gahd sanitiser doesn't work good lads fuckimg gold
You often post without reading1000 in the premier league? Nah that would be every single player and coach
What does that have to do with the widely evidence that the SARS-CoV-2 pathogen is killed by 60% alcohol hand sanitiser? This an e ample of confirmation bias, even when the vast majority of evidence shows one thing people will seek out opinions that back up their own preconceived notions.Are you a doctor?
I'm not agreeing with you, it's a small per engage at the momentYou often post without reading
You are agreeing with me but say nah
5 out of 1000 extrapolates to 300000 in the countryI'm not agreeing with you, it's a small per engage at the moment
We may well know better. Our scientists are the envy of the worldThe fact we are the only ones going down this route scares me. Do we know better than everyone else? I doubt it.
You are bang on ferretAs I saw somebody say yesterday, people only appear to like experts if they confirm what they think they already know.
The reasoning for the government's position was laid out quite clearly. It is not a do nothing policy at all. It's about timing and flattening the peak.

LikeBut flattening the peak comes with putting in measures early, not allowing it to spread unchecked.
Not disputing that, just wondering what qualifies you to shoot everyone else down. What medical training do you have then?What does that have to do with the widely evidence that the SARS-CoV-2 pathogen is killed by 60% alcohol hand sanitiser?

The doctors at phe and the cdc disagree with him
Like
stay at home if you have symptoms you mean?
But flattening the peak comes with putting in measures early, not allowing it to spread unchecked.
But they are not. What they are saying is that large gatherings, closing schools etc. will have a negligible effect on the rate of spread (I defer to their knowledge which will be based on modelling that I cannot possibly have an informed view on). The best weapon we have is early self-isolation - so that is the focus and what they are pushing. It was a message not pushed early enough in Italy and/or was ignored. Whether people ignore that message here remains to be seen.
I'm not trying to shoot people down, I'm just commenting on best available evidence. It's dangerous for people to claim unchecked that hand sanitizer doesn't work.Not disputing that, just wondering what qualifies you to shoot everyone else down. What medical training do you have then?
No it doesn't involves putting the measures in at the most effective time. Studies into the 1918 pandemic show that putting forced measures could in fact to more deaths due to fatigue in the measures.But flattening the peak comes with putting in measures early, not allowing it to spread unchecked.
Doesn't explain why our models are different to everyone else in the worlds. And spare me the Bulldog Spirit “they’re the best innit”.
