Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

She's been a community nurse for several years, but is highly likely to be deployed to clinical care on Monday, so she has no idea what equipment she'll have or what the situation will be like. At the moment, she's more concerned about the relative rustiness of her skills, so will probably spend the weekend swotting up and doing various assessments and stuff on me.

How is your prostate?

Which is safer?

Getting on a London bus, or getting in an Uber cab?

Buying a bike.

How would that work? The 3 weeks of freedom people would be out every day and night if possible?

Pubs and reastursants full to brim

Not sure any point in your method

pubs restaurants etc will be the last to have restrictions lifted.
Even retail units will still have to enforce social distancing for a long time

More than happy to support them getting the same as I am for teaching her......

Try 30 at the same time, under the same conditions with the same expectations as an actual teacher.

Lower population density vs. all the structural disadvantages. My take would be a bit more nuanced - I think that the highest population density areas will have the worst go of it overall, but that the mini-outbreaks in more rural areas will be the most lethal. It's not just the risk factors, it's the availability and quality of care.

The only advantages the south has is their non-existant public transportation system and they are nice to dear leader (but the supplies are already out). Plus maybe the weather. They never addressed the rising population w/ increased health care infrastructure. The state regulations for RN homes are LOL. There's a @#$%ton of HCA/Tenet hospitals in Florida which are only world class in medicare fraud.

I'll be eating lots of fibre today, just in case.

So it wasn’t Boris then......

It was scum like him with the same philosophy.

Continue to defend the indefensible. There's thousands dying and you're here defending the human waste who created the conditions for it and who are now doubling down on it by making murderous decisions.

Classy.

Just back online. Anyone else been having internet problems? Do you think it's due to congestion with so many people at home

 

[Brisan123]

Doing vastly better than most European nations?

Yes Ireland running at about 20 deaths per million

It’s not my method, it’s the government method.

if we all stay in for the next 6 months, then we go back to normal then we’ll get another unmanageable spike.

So instead, the government could open the tap on certain measures for a few weeks, let the virus spread a bit, then close the tap and allow those new infections to present.

Indeed there are thousands dying, so any comment on the Chinese Communist Party ?.....

It would be nice to think that after all this that society appreciates those that actually do the most for us. But we won‘t. We will go back to paying Millions to people who kick a ball, hit a ball or throw a ball, and people who talk about kicking, hitting or throwing a ball. Not forgetting the celebrities, people who ‘influence’ and all the other useless tossers who contribute almost nothing of any real value to our lives.......

I'm not feeling the love for professional footballers at the moment. Andre excepted of course.

Pfi that old chestnut,
a company i used to work for got a 50 year maintenance contract with a hospital and were charging 3 figures to change 5 bulbs and still are.

All that money could of been used to help the NHS right now.

Are you sure it wasn't 6?
