Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

More world class communication, really gives you assurance they can handle things

Absolutely clueless - I can't believe a word out of their crooked mouths unfortunately.

My theory is no less valid than yours.

We'll never know the truth of course as the CCP bumped off all those Chinese scientists who tried alerting the world about this thing.

UK Gov Guidance on use of CO2 monitors. Under COSHH regulations, whether the space is ventilated or not, when Covid is taken into account if it isn’t adequately ventilated as measured on CO2 monitor, it’s probably unsafe to use.

Identifying poorly ventilated areas by using CO2 monitors

A simple way to identify poorly ventilated areas.

Thanks for the excellent research!

Neither of those are coronaviruses.

The last one like this took 6 years without vaccines and medical advancement.

21 months (almost 2 years) with vaccines and medical advancement then, is what's happening.

Still a bit of a failure, IMO.

So 4500 confirmed cases of ohmicron.

54000 positive tests reported today.

Health secretary says ohmicron is 20% of all cases.

So........... Government making it up now?

The last one in 1890s took 6 years and 10 waves.

To be honest, people need to accept that this is a pandemic, it’s going to take a bit of time to get to a pre pandemic place, with each year getting easier.

Maybe it’s a messaging thing but I’m surprised that people haven’t haven’t come to terms with that yet. There’s no off switch. It’s going to take time.

Just to chime in. Whether it was made in a lab or not.

Sars cov 1 originated in China , never found the origin.

Sars cov 2 originated in China , still haven't found the origin.

Bit of a coincidence no?

Lots of viruses have originated in that part of the world.

This shouldn’t be surprising mind, they’ve for most of recorded history had relatively densely populated settled areas (including cities) together with relatively nearby diverse ecosystems (jungle, desert, savannah, plains, steppes), relatively good internal communications and they’ve usually been a magnet for trade from that place to the rest of the known world.

Add it all up and you have basically the ideal place on the planet for any virus to cross to humans, get a foothold in humanity and then be circulated around the world population of humans.

 

[JoeLovell]

Of course it worked, but it caused enormous issues for people and there is no justification for another one. Not in a highly vaccinated society. And there will always be a spike when you unlock because covid is here for the long term and cannot be eradicated.

You can;t keep locking down forever because there is more to life than covid. I cannot support another lockdown and it would be disastrous.

Not one person I’ve spoken to in a factory of over 60 people has said that they’ll obey another lockdown

add in a government that tops whistleblowers and you've got the perfect petri dish

edit: I'm not saying it's a conspiracy or China are evil. Their government is, in my book, very nasty though.

He was a banker and then Chancellor, bit much I suppose to expect him to be accurate with numbers!

Confirmed cases isn’t all cases.

This looks like at least 4 years long imo, two more winters to go.

So only cutting 2 years from that 6 years long pandemic you are talking about, with all things we now have, is not smth I would call a success.

 

[Ghost Rider]

I don’t know.

Do you think the lab is there because there are species that populate the area that tend to carry lots of viruses without fatalities or do you think that’s a coincidence?

Given the sheer amount of species , why haven't they ever found the source? Every theory about SARS was debunked and it remains a mystery.

We will never know the truth about it but will it take a third virus to originate in the same country in another 20 years before people start at least considering that it's not a coincidence?

I know you are not interested to get into it so I won't but there has been plenty of coincidental information regarding covid.

Just answer me this, if covid wasn't man made or at the very least originating from a lab in any way. Why did China cover it up for months , like they did with Sars? Why did they restrict WHO from investigating Wuhan to the extent that they could only go where they wanted them to go only?

Why go to such an extent for something that is entirely not their fault again? Do you at the very least not think that's odd behaviour given this has naturally occured?

What’s your benchmark mate?

What are you basis that analysis on?

Medical advancement aside, how do you think the previous virus would have done in a world with globalisation and air travel and a global population of around 4x it was then?
