Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Is it any surprise people are doing what they want...

Coupled with PissStained Johnson senior not being fined, ain't nobody gonna take any notice.

How hard would it have been to fine him? To send a message, but no.

 

[Nymzee]

I have maintained the same point for a while now.

Throwing phrases at me doesn't mean they make sense you know? lol

So we are literally doing this whilst telling people they can't see each other, locking students in halls, restricting opening times of pubs to name but a few? Really? That normality to you?

Plus I have provided data for my views, many times in fact. It's you sir that has not provided any to yours.

Why would I provide data when I'm not suggesting an idea myself merely questioning yours...

You tend to just say "the official stats" without linking anything.

Ok , for the umpteenth timehttps://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/deaths

There's the official stats

Or there are these

https://www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/statistical-work-areas/covid-19-daily-deaths/

Interestingly enough with that second link mate is that you can see all the 0s in the columns much more clearer compared to the rest of them for anyone under 45.

Is that good enough?

Oh and there is a difference between discussing something with someone and questioning. That questioning stops 4 posts ago!

I have not stopped working since 23rd March, 7 days a week, I am yet to come across anyone who knows anyone who has contracted the made up Covid rubbish, let alone died from it lol !

How you getting on with wearing your mask mate ?

@davek has a spare Darth Vadar helmet if you’re struggling ?

In fairness they aren't responsible for the pms dad, that's on him. The Cummings situation is obviously a very different matter and the bullshit that followed with all the tory copy and paste tweets.

Hospital figures - 58 (!) deaths were announced today, 14 up on yesterday and 25 up on last Thursday. 44 deaths were in English hospitals, one up on yesterday and 14 up on last week with 42 occurring in the past 10 days. The 7 day rolling average rises to 34.29

All settings - for the 28 day cut off, 59 deaths were announced today, down 12 on yesterday and up 19 on last Thursday. The 7 day rolling average rises to 42.86

For the 60 day cut off, 60 deaths were announced today, down 12 on yesterday and up 16 on last Thursday. The 7 day rolling average rises to 47.14

For the legacy/no cut off, 104 deaths were announced today, down 11 on yesterday and up 12 on last Thursday. The 7 day rolling average rises to 85.43

Could have fined him and gave themselves a free "win" tho.

Instead it just adds to the "if they cba, neither can I".

I have worked throughout fella. I have worked in the NHS in a medical capacity for 20 years nearly.

I’ve known people die from it.

I also agree that it could be managed way better.

But a “ lol “about something people have died from is too far.

 

[YoboCopter]

Wish more people were like the boro mayor or what ever he is

hes right like

On the very first page before clicking into anything it says deaths are 2.8% higher than the 5 year average

And week on week that has been dropping 15% since August.

But there is going to be a rise. It's a brand new virus , not every single person was meant to die now. So there will always be an increase in that average

 

[Kenshin]

So how many is that now parts of the government breaking their own rules?

 

[LinekersLegs]

hope this MP sees sense and resigns:

SNP MP Margaret Ferrier suspended for taking train after positive Covid test

Ferrier travelled from London to Scotland knowing she had coronavirus

www.theguardian.com

The first train trip was bad enough, the second after the positive result is just gobsmacking
