Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Makes me wonder how large the number of cases in the UK really is, could be a lot more than the real figure

Why ?

10 deaths is one percent of the current confirmed cases

What's the use in the actual number of cases. Higher the number the worse management, there won't be any need to test widely rest assured.

Other countries affected have very similar procedures to ours. If it comes to choosing to between the views of the WHO or a Blue from Barrow, then I'll go with the WHO.

btw
There's a really good "Won't Get Fooled Again" pun in here somewhere ...

Haha, yes I think this is probably a good approach

I`ve heard that people are also panic buying dog food and washing up liquid too.

Even @Joey66 would struggle to make a meal out of pasta, bog roll, dog food and washing up liquid.

Mind you, if you threw a bit of curry powder in and a can of chick peas ?

**Waits for @Joey66 to come along and say that he could make a meal out of all that**

Yes....

The death rate worldwide is 3.6%. 20 deaths from 1140 confirmed cases in the UK.

Should expect more deaths if anything.

Why is it 14 days isolation in the republic of Ireland and only 7 days in northern Ireland?

Do the UK authorities think they know better or what? I don't understand

this is a point I tried to make the other day , the only non hospitalised people who seem to have it are rich or famous , which clearly cant be the case . I do wonder how many ‘ordinary ‘ people have had it and we haven’t known

You can basically add a zero or two on the official figures.

Which is actually reassuring as the mortality rate will be absolutely nowhere near as high as the figures being reported. The vast majority will barely present with symptoms and not be statistically recorded as they seek no intervention.

We’re all going to die though

Things have taken a dramatic turn for the worse.

A draw against United on the final day was enough to stop them from winning the league, with Liverpool coming in to pip them on the final day - but Wimbledon's narrow 1-0 win against Spurs meant that we went down on goal difference.

Also add to the number of people passing away who are not being tested for the virus.
