Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

15 infections per day being recorded in Prague. That's how they can allow it.

The Czech's locked down early and reaped the benefits of that, like the Danes did.

The 1,000 seated meal was booked in advance and you can see the spacing out much better from here:

I know you dont want to face up to it, but the Czechs have done the right thing since day one....unlike the Sick Man of Europe, the UK Banana Republic.

Czech has more cases per head of population than the UK does Dave.

Who do who report the figures to?

I'm sorry I didn't realise my question was that difficult given that the item you linked was concerning who Deloitte report the findings of Pillar 2 testing to.

Anyway, I've looked into it further myself and according to an article in the Times yesterday, Deloitte only arrange and facilitate the testing. The results are passed to the NHS who in turn need to inform PHE of their findings. This is the specific paragraph from the Times article that refers.

"Deloitte, which said it could not comment on client matters, set up the testing facilities and booking system but does not run them. It passes details of those who book and request home test kits to the NHS, which collates them with results from labs and is responsible for passing them to PHE"

When you two have your fight, which former Everton player would you want in your corner? You can't have Bernie "the dolt" Wright, coz I've picked him already.

 

[Brennan]

Are they still producing those mobility stats?

Doom mongers will say we’re back to normal but in reality..

For context Brussels are at 45%, Berlin 43%, Sydney 40%.

None of the big European cities within their dataset have lower movement than we do currently.

Have you got the figures for Northern Line trains travelling to the city centre on Friday mate?

The Northern Line on a Friday night is one of those things no one talks about

 

[Charro]

I’ve been getting the train up to barrow for the past month now and they’re always completely empty.

Only train that’s remotely busy is the Liverpool train getting into town.

Sorry. I was referring to Liverpool mate. Not everything revolves around the London bubble.

We have a Wirral Line and a Northern Line.
