Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Every other source? Maybe try John Hopkins for a start. Clearly they arent getting it direct from state health departments, because all of the other sites reporting they get it straight from health departments have different numbers.

Beyond that, and I can only speak for my state, they arent smart enough to realize it only updates once a day and instead they check the numbers 4 times a day.

Can rarely get John Hopkins to load, usually crashes/way too slow whenever I try it.

Checked my state California - 106,878 total cases 4156 deaths which exactly matches state figures here https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/Immunization/ncov2019.aspx

Florida they are currently reporting 55424 cases and 2530 deaths which for cases matches the Florida dashboard https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/96dd742462124fa0b38ddedb9b25e429/. There is a discrepancy on the deaths ( state dashboard is 2477) but there is a note “We report using the raw data provided by FDOH but we include both Florida residents and non-residents. On March 26, the dashboard stopped including non-residents in its visible counts, but they're still tracked behind the scenes.”

Checked Arkansas and that also lined up for case #s

Can you point to the state(s) you feel their data is inaccurate for?

Every source I'm looking at seems to support Legs' numbers, including John Hopkins. Where are you getting your numbers from and what are they?

So the most vulnerable in society are now told to abandon their shielding.

This whilst the virus is still infecting thousands daily and killing hundreds daily.

What kind of poop show is this!

When did they announce That? My wife is shielding and I rang the number I was given for shielding support on Friday to see if the situation has changed and they told me nothing will change for at least another 2 weeks.

Coronavirus: Some people shielding allowed outdoors from Monday

Some restrictions on vulnerable people shielding from coronavirus are to be eased after 10 weeks.

Just seen it myself on Andrew Marr, my misses wants me to take her to get some curtains but I wasn't happy to do that as I don't think anything has changed

 

[bullybeef]

Except that isnt true.

yes it is.
Do you even know what the initial shielding advice was?

did you get a letter advising you to shield?

It say they're allowed out once a day with people from their household and can meet 1 person from outside it with social distancing maintained. It's hardly saying "Go wild!"

The whole thing is an absolute mess mate,I Am beginning to think that as individuals you should make our own decisions

If you're anything like me then you will do almost anything to get out of going shopping for curtains. Bravo.

Yes, and yes. With cheese on mate. Had personal visits from 4 health care professionals following an approved discharge from hospital as a follow up, then have had to assist my elderly parents to boot.
