Why do people keep saying "the lower classes" are the ones threatened by this.

Being able to work from home doesn't make you middle class, ffs
Try and list the types of jobs you can do working from home. And then list the types of jobs where that is impossible.
 
Burnham gets very little if any media attention outside of Manchester, it’s just his ego playing up. He will be slapped down by the home office and told to behave. He needs to remember, what positions the government have created, the government can take away.....
Really Pete, really? That's the route you want to go down, "shut up even if what we do is troubling to you or we'll have you silenced and take your job"? You cant see any way that could end badly?
 
Saw an article today saying they might have uncovered a direct correlation with low vitamin D levels and COVID deaths.

Made a lot of sense reading through it, though I'm no expert. Not a cure, but maybe a reason why some die and others dont. Could be rubbish... who knows.

Google trends showing it's a very popular search term, and will probably be more expensive than gold by next weekend, if not already.

Definitely one for any expecting parents, might be wise to have the vitamin D shot asap for the little one.
To be fair with all the Covidiots out and about in the sun the last few weeks Vitamin D deficiency will not be a problem
 
Nobel scientist predicts virus will 'burn out' in next two weeks

A Nobel Prize- winning scientist has predicted, through analysing raw data, that Ireland's death rate and infection will "burn itself out" in the next two weeks, enabling an earlier exit from lockdown.

Professor Michael Levitt, of Stanford University, was speaking after he correctly calculated the demise of China's spread, long ahead of most health experts.

In early February, as many scientists warned of exponential growth, Levitt forecast the total number of confirmed Covid-19 cases in China would taper out at around 80,000, with 3,250 deaths. Three months on, China has a total of 82,885 cases and 4,633 deaths - in a population of 1.4bn.

Now Prof Levitt has calculated that Ireland's infection is burning itself out and will 'taper off' at around 30,000 cases and fewer than 2,400 deaths. Ireland now has 22,385 cases and 1,403 deaths.

He says the death rate is more difficult to predict, due to a number of factors, such as some countries counting coronavirus deaths in those who would normally have died from underlying health conditions.
