In 1968/69 the Hong Kong Flu killed 80,000 in the UK "whereas illness was diffuse and affected only small numbers of people in Japan, it was widespread and deadly in the United States"
Something similar appears to be happening in Italy |

germany lots of positives no deaths
Singapore hit early on the curve no deaths |

It's not flu its sars-cov2,with middle strand dna very similar to hiv1,comparing countries is OK but this virus seems to affect different different peoples differently, SK done/doing mass testing so a lot more cases (found) the cases their are mostly in younger women apparently,a group consisting of non smokers, so the stats look good on the face it it yor comparing apples with oranges. Italy behind SK on testing is mostly testing older men already showing symptoms, a group which will be high on smokers, and will most likely be on ace-i and arbs for high BP, sars-cov2 loves old male smokers full of ace2 which the high BP drugs produce. So stats are not worth a flying. Also lombardy a region of 10m has on average 100k deaths a year anyway, reports of post humas tests not being done,ect ect, lies damned lies and statistics.

"they certainly got hysterics like lapsy pa wound up" Well i tried my best to listen to you,going on about flu and numbers,wound up,yes,i'm afraid unlike yourself i don't have a lot of optimism for the near future. |

Also looks like hot humid countries fairing better, but its also about the human genetic makeup. Italians have a bit of skin colour so maybe thats a factor, lombardy at right temp /humidity for optimal transmission and its got a perfect host that kisses each other all the time, wondering if sk women maybe get close with one another in similar style to Italian males,maybe go about in huddles to prevent upskirting or summit.

And that can only help everybody. |

you've got to love the knuckledragggers ,spent 4 years telling the world uk public were prepared to take a hit in their pockets no matter how long TO GET BREXIT DONE, BUT not prepared to take a hit in their pockets ,TO GET STOP DYING DONE, go figure

if we had left in 2017 and stopped free movement we might have been better placed to manage this problem too.Wondered when Brexit voters would get the blame
 |
|
By:
Yes, no one would have gone skiing in Italy
 |
|
By:
Unless your plan for Brexit involved (i.) no-one ever leaving the country on holiday, and (ii.) no-one ever visiting the UK from abroad as a tourist or on business, leaving in 2017 would have made zero difference.

By:
There has never ever been a plan for Brexit, just a few catchy slogans.

This really seems like a training drill to me and we are failing it badly

what a lunatic we have in charge
cant even comb his hair the oaf strategy changing daily as lack of early reaction catches up with them panic mode engaged , looking calm and appearing to know whats going on will soon crumble as a nation grinds to a halt |

Has jezza self isolated?

I am wondering if they are really modelling society reaction. They are quite clearly trying to induce fear and panic with the way they are carrying on. Maybe they want to know how far they can push us?

The Media will cause more deaths by fear,than the Virus ever will.Unless of course, they're not telling us all the facts.

American bailout commencing

cant see these big corps getting money breaks etc
|
|
By:
They ain't telling you the facts because the media don't have a clue what's going off
This is well above any government, hence the media looking puzzled by it, its funny to watch as finally those little rats are realising they ain't the lords |
|
By:
South America aren't being drilled for this?
Their football and sport is still going, their social events are still there |
|
By:
dont go to restaurant but we need them to feed the population, by order, at social distance
blah blah protecting americans and their money, markets open, until we shut em |

By:
why are all these companies airlines,airports,eateries asking for bailouts in a mad rush sacking /laying off people ,why arnt they waiting to see whst sunak i9s going to do, a cynic might think their trying to play both ends at the same time,and yes I,m a cynic
|
|
By:
call me a cynic,ive admitted I am
, but unlike trump out early putting life into usastockmarkets with his proposals, does the fact the markets are about to close in the uk,sunaks package might not be as big as everyone seems to be predicting and city might react badly |
