Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

[zzr45]

There’s a lack of heat maps that would invariably help this thread. Is Covid getting into area 13?

Does he have to defend it?

Cage match imo.

can we challenge him ? Even with my appalling record I’d fancy my chances against the kopite

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Yeah why should I care about issues that don’t directly affect me. Like poverty or disease or domestic violence or child abuse or slavery.
Just really weird to care about things that are outside my direct social circle.

I often wondered and posted why Domestic violence is not more of an issue in more normal times. It kills more people than terrorist acts in the uk and its perpetrators are generally white males, the smell of institutional racism is strong.

The undermining of comparison's has been weaponised to detract from what is, without a shadow of a doubt, a rank national performance by the UK governing class. That's something you should at least acknowledge in your posts. Are you doing it to help out The Johnson Gang? No, I dont think that at all. But the very act of stating that all comparisons are invidious plays into their hands. That's what they want: "Oh, you cant measure this against that, because this is included here and that's not oncluded there...etc etc".

Plough through all that and look at the actual (combined) figures for deaths from Covid19 in this country and tell me there's any mitigating comparison that can be made for the UK Government. You cant. Dont give them succour by going over the top with your methodological arguments.

You really plumb the depths, why should I want to help them out?

I've given up on your posts making any sense at all

In the football forum the yanks love their stats
XG,XCC,ZONE 13 AND ALL THAT STUFF
They actually write whole posts consisting of pure stats and rate players accordingly,without using their eyes
One example
Ryan Fraser is a better player than Bernard because the stats say so
Not a dig at you in any way just an in joke on the football forum

Lol soz missed the gag! I know nowt about footy stats just love to make myself miserable watching the blues!

I do work as a statistician though

Ah, so prior to today, you were paying daily attention to domestic violence stats? I doubt that somehow. You missed out climate change and plastic waste though to be truly virtuous.

Well, no. But neither did I say I was looking at the Covid stats. My point, which you’ve chosen to ignore, was that people are able to care for issues outside of their direct social circle.
Maybe you don’t, and maybe you struggle empathise with that idea, but I doubt you are unable to imagine the concept entirely?

Imagine Tom about to lay Lizzie out with a DDT and Phil suddenly comes crashing in from the top rope in a Range Rover.

Someone contact Vince, one of our wrestling nonces will have his number.
