Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

[davek]

The average has literally gone up by 1, it was 132.43 yesterday. It’s still working out at 19 people a day

Yesterday going on 24 hour data alone, only 7 people died in hospitals, the way the 7 day average is only 9 people a day die in hospitals

Well higher than on the eve of the lockdown.

Is that even going to be up and running before Christmas?

In small localised outbreaks it has already been used, very successfully.

In Britain?

Where? And what system was it using? And what does 'successful' look like?

Weston Super Mare. Sommet like a 3rd of hospital staff at the General tested positive, R went above 1 very quickly. Hospital closed, all affected staff isolated, and likely contacts were tested/isolated. All remaining staff and patients were tested.

Result. Zero deaths, and R well below 1 across North Somerset.

Hospital staff are easy to trace. And they are tested as a matter of course. It's a contained environment.

HanCOCK implying pub goers and diners will have to provide their data before entry.

That'll cut down the rate of infection transmission when people are sitting cheek by jowell with each other. What a 'kin bellend.

Looks like I can finally introduce a pub loyalty scheme......

All hospital staff are tested as a matter of course? Not so sure on that. There are probably more non medical staff in a hospital than medics. Same as the armed forces. A relative handful do the actual shooting or bombing.

Well higher than on the eve of the lockdown.

Week after lockdown the 7 day average was 197.71, or 28 people a day

Exactly 2 months ago, in the midst of the peak the 7 day average was 878.57 or 125 a day

By this time next weekend we could be looking at the average being just on or under 100

Well, it's supposed to be routine testing now, and some trusts are doing that - others not due to the incompetence in supply.

The disastrous choice of system for tracing has put us back months. It should be in place and running like a top before any relaxation of the social distancing rules.

I said on the eve of lockdown. There were a total of 335 people who had died.

Oh Weston General sits firmly in the incompetence category mate! But the system that was used worked very well.

If that is repeated here there will be carnage. A well adjusted mature society like the Germans' will do well to keep a lid on a second wave. This basket case of a country led by eugenicists has no 'kin chance.

Meanwhile overnight, in well adjusted and mature Germany, there’s been overnight rioting and looting in Stuttgart

That right? Are they rioting because they are not happy about being told they are mature and well adjusted?
