Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

[john jako]

Right now, it’s not

There is no chance he'll be going into an ICU ward unless he is gravelly ill and in need of specialist treatment because the ward itself brings huge risks.

Yep 100%. It’s ripe on them places.

What would they be....bearing in mind the clue of his role is in the title of the organisation......

You should probably go and do some research about the WHO.

'kin ell. Serious stuff, this. Like.. really, really, really serious..

 

[BlueToff]

Dont wish him dead but cant bring myself to care if he does die

I mean, even just for the sake of the country, you really should care.

Either way, if he pulls through or not, then he's out of action for a while and we have people even more inept to step up by the looks of it. Grim.

 

[john jako]

Any other foreign leaders or high up government officials have it or passed away with it?

My cousin's 2 year old has been taken to hospital in an ambulance today with breathing difficulties. They hope it might just be a chest infection but for some reason they've not done a CV test, as far as I'm aware.
The really worrying thing is that they have a newborn with cysticfibrosis. If the virus has already passed to the baby, I hate to think

Kinda sum his legacy up . Entertainment darling and the man telling everyone how to avoid the virus whilst doing the complete opposite.

Let's hope he does recover. He can be the symbol of hope for the country if the leader can beat the virus. That will go a long way in moral.

Jesus I'm sounding like it's some old time war propaganda but I genuinely think it would work

It would have - telling the people that even he can get it, that even he has to stay home, self-isolate and take care of himself, that someone in their 50s can be taken down by this vile illness and that even he can be saved by the NHS would have got more people to take this seriously.

Sadly, they downplayed the seriousness of this constantly and now here we are.

Escalated a bit that hasn’t it, Think he’s brown bread now

I've just gone back and read the first few pages of this thread out of curiosity.

Mental how this has all progressed. Genuinely couldn't make it up.

And @PhilM

Surely, surely,he's in his own room?

Look, I know we shouldn't think like this in terms of a life is a life but he's the PM. He surely won't have been put in a ward with other patients?

Western world needs to have a stern word with China going forwards the dirty sods

 

[Connor]

Remember herd immunity, that feels like it was about a month ago

...absolutely, it was clear when he was taken to a virus ridden hospital despite access to the best medical advice and private care at home.

I read a report he wasn’t in a private hospital but I’m expecting him to have his own room but who knows.

When I went to Taiwan I don’t remember asking China if I could do so. I also don’t remember meeting any Chinese officials on the way in or the way out......Just because China refuses to recognise Taiwan does not mean it is not a sovereign country. China also refuses to accept the Judgement decisions of a UN tribunal in respect of the South China Sea, but it doesn’t mean they are right.....

You should probably take this up with the UN. I know, after our Brexit chats you struggle with understanding sovereignty, but I am just giving information.
