Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Just saw clips of the press conference earlier. What the flip was that all about with the journalists asking blatantly political questions to Whitty and Vallance. It's not question time, they are medical experts not politicians.

Ask Johnson those questions and keep asking him those questions over and over again. But I thought the whole thing was a total farce.

Its all and more I could have hoped for its beautiful car crash, this Johnson is so much out of his depth he commands no respect of authority.

This weeks easing of the lockdown in London has resulted in a spike in cases. It suggests that the virus is spreading more and more.

Hmmm im not so sure mate.

South Korea was near enough covid free and now as you say suddenly cases have jumped up - its going to take us months to even get near to that stage and life/school has to carry on at some point.

We are simply going to have to get used to living with this thing there is no other way I feel.

You can find it in here. National COVID-19 surveillance report: 28 May 2020 (week 22)

Or in here for increased hospitalisation in England National COVID-19 weekly summary report: 28 May 2020.

Get ready for part 2 of the "Herd Immunity" program.

It may be already upon us, as some hospitals close their doors to those infected and they have to go elsewhere and the spike in admissions started from 21st May..

70 deaths in Italy and 1 in Spain, incredible.

Its what they wanted all along.

No one can tell me the lack of preparedness with late lockdown , no PPE , no testing ,the care homes fiasco and the rest of the measures that should have been in place ( we were well warned what was coming) as we were 2 weeks to a month behind the rest of europe wasnt the path they favoured.
Those 2 puppets either side of Boris ( the science ) and his teflon cohort Cummings wanted this from day one.

Do you own your own home ?
Academic qualifications ?
Do you have a mortgage ?
Ethnic background ?

These are the questions asked on the Isle of Wight residents for the tracker..

No wonder this won't work.

I cam sort of see the use of the first one if it was rephrased “do you have a place where you can isolate safely”.

Everything else is hot garbage.

Will be at least three months without seeing my girlfriend now.

That’s a bummer but just got to wait it out.

I don’t know what people want though. Do we want 100% lockdown for another few months? Letting people mix outside is fine.

Numbers are dropping, so why not lift certain things here and there?

Sorry to here about the girlfriend mate, that is rough.

Speaking purely for myself it is an effective track/trace system supplemented by widespread access to testing and directives on mask wearing (preferably with government discounted high quality masks but think I have run out of my three wishes )
