Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Re: Cummings - In a city of 8 million+ people, apparently they can't find any friends they trust enough to help look after their nipper. It's either bollocks or a bit of a social indictment. (It's bollocks, obv).

‘How Could the CDC Make That Mistake?’

The government’s disease-fighting agency is conflating viral and antibody tests, compromising a few crucial metrics that governors depend on to reopen their economies. Pennsylvania, Georgia, Texas, and other states are doing the same.

@Neiler have you read any of The Atlantic stuff. Good scientific journalism and free to read.

No mortality benefit is a bummer.

Imagine clapping the NHS, while the day before you bashed that same NHS and pushed clinicians under the bus.

"No-one was discharged into a care home this year without the express authorisation of a clinician", PMQs 20/05/2020

The handling of this pandemic by the Government will haunt Johnson tenure. This will be the legacy!

Rejoice!!! Cummings has to be goings now and he was the main thing in the whole organisation. This could well bring them down already.

I havent been anywhere near frandels or family, bar my daughter and Grandson, who doesnt live with us, but ive been out most days for my walk and shopping.

But im exposed when shopping, im exposed every day my daughter comes home from work, you can follow the lockdown rules to the letter, but there will always be a slight chance of infection sadly.

You would think so but I think this story will be burried and forgotten about .The law does not apply to Johnson and his cronies and I am that mistrustful of anything they say I even have doubts that Johnson even had the virus in the first place.

My doubts re: Johnson have certainly resurfaced with this too. Cummings position is untenable now. Perhaps with his farming background he could get some hours picking on Eustices fruit Farm.

One benefit of this Cummings row (or indeed any scandal where a Tory is obviously in the wrong) is that it makes it obvious who in the media has been compromised by them.

I don't think they care, nobody listens.

The amount of Tories complaining about MSM at the moment is the very definition of irony.

I cant see that. The vulnerable people wont be the types going to work by and large.

The construction industry never slowed from my view. Loads of people I know overweight, diabetic, high blood pressure all working.
