WHY ARE YOU SO THICK IN THE UK

Na you was intelligent then ....victorian england !  Industrial revolution, owned the seas ?

I fecking did and every count pi55ed thenselves laughing

They are thick,especially the under 25's.

I have a mask I am wearing Till I get tested , I could not Give a flying what the WHO advice is ...........

They are probably advising people not to wear them because there are not enough .. to make much difference

czech republic made masks mandatory a while ago and it seems to have helped.

research from mit suggesting 8 metres may be the correct distance to be apart.

They done all t hat in bergamoh

A week.later everyone was dead

It was Florence where people were encouraged to hug Chinese, it must have improved things for em or else there'd be a similar thread to this about how thick the Italians are.

if ive got this right handjob hancocks latest wheeze to let the world no he,s superman who a virus cant kill,is this
the likes of him and doris who broke their own social ldistance rules sat next to each other in meetings,front bench sat on nadines knee,bragged about shaking everyone,s hand in a hospital,carried on going to work when suffering symptons,others carrying on going to pubs,holding parties ,going to the seaside,infecting ,themselves and others and undoubtly some unwittingly causing the deaths of other,s, are going to be rewarded with a yellow rubber band saying their immune a superhero
meanwhile those who obeyed every rule,used common sense stayed away from pubs,seaside their parents,their grandkids, give up work,lost jobs,lost livelehoods, etc and avoided getting the virus are going to have to stay in lockdown,whilst the covidiots such as hancock,doris and cummings are free to do as they please
the moment this happens is the second my lockdown finishes rubber band or no rubber band, as usual cant believe not one journo has pointed this out to handjob, and the police think their busy now

It says something about how the world has sleepwalked into this mess when there is no consensus on whether a face mask is effective in stopping the spread of a virus. Why should that be subject to any doubt? Viruses are not new. When you can get a hit on any subject you can think of on Google, surely someone somewhere has studied that question before.

Most people intelligent enough to know they won't get the 'real figures' from any country on Earth.

why are they so thick in italy and spain?

sweeden ,germany, herd immunity no herd immunity in the end makes no difference between 66% [uk] and 80% of those going on to ventilators are dying, other than a countries age demographics most countries will end up with similar figures

Test figures will start to increase steadliy , 684 not good, but when we hit 500 I thought the increase would be extremely progressive ??

We may well still see a thousand figure in the next few days ..

Extreme lockdown in France but then they tell us that tens of thousands have been fined for breaking the rules. How stupid are they? I still don't think that more than 60% of adults could mark off 2 metres with any accuracy. Every time you see people queueing on TV they are much closer than that. I am still sticking to 10 metres distance on the rare occasions that I encounter a human being.

The rules that are laid down are a compromise between the strict enforcement that scientists would recommend and the practicality of getting food and exercise. The idea of everyone over 70 sitting at home waiting for a food delivery was quickly abandoned and then the idea that the supermarkets could provide more home delivery was shown to be equally impossible. Almost every bank, transport company, government, NHS or local authority phone line is permanently jammed or even unmanned so any of the advice to call such and such number is pointless.

I can't believe the number of people from UK on this forum who seem to think that this is like flu.
The death rate is not the issue, it never is in a pandemic. The rate of spread and overwhelming of hospitals is the issue, as it is in every pandemic. Like talking to a brick wall trying to explain this to some of them.

This virus spreads like wildfire compared to flu and the longer it spreads the bigger the difference between the two in terms of the number of people infected, ie it spreads to more people and it grown exponentially. Flu doesn't overwhelm hospitals. This will, even with a lockdown in place and many temporary hospitals being built. Why do you think the Tories of all people are scrambling round throwing up new hospitals in 10 days FFS? The Tories! Hospitals!!

Comparing death rates is like comparing two banks. One pays 5% interest a year and the other pays 5% interest a month. But the interest rate is 5% at both so there's no difference

The panic of the fcuk up has set in,i think they gave up severl days maybe a week ago realizing the catastrophe they have caused,everything os collateral damage now,thus no rushing of testing of even NHS staff or PPE ventliators..
We have four doctirs and two nurses dead aready completely unnecesarry and you cam gurantee these figures are going to go up with the huge figures coming out..Local authorities sending letters out to people with illnesses disabilites sggesting NDR  wtf is going on,thankfully people are telling them to stick it and making it piblic..Who couldv'e possily suggest they did that i wonder,classic dom..

....and now another 684 deaths reported!

You would almost hope the Chinese numbers are half accurate because if they aren't then it's going to get a lot worse.

I don't trust the Chinese, but their approach is the same as the other Asian countries who all seem to have a lid on it compared to Europe and US and have a totally different approach. That's why I don't see how their figures are well worse than those other Asian countries. I think that is more indicative than anything else. Although with the amount of people in China it could get worse there than other Asian countries.
