This Thread is about Cheltenham - not the end of the world. These things tend to peak, and then drop fairly quickly - for example China - nearly 80,000 cases in Total - with just a 577 day increase latest. |

Judging by this thread it seems that the coronavirus adopts a variation on the martingale system in a bid for global anhialation.

A big part of the problem is that "confirmed cases" massively understates the extent of the spread. Loads of people will have it but still be in the incubation period. Plus lots of younger, healthier people can have it with little or no symptoms, but they can still infect others.
|

By:
true, which is why what the media are getting off on now is just the start, they just needed something to fill the Brexit gap and the Chinese dropped them a cracker

I think on a positive boris hasn't panicked today, so whilst they are monitoring they have not jumped in and started culling events, obv iif cases rise markedly that may change

Following the PM's statement after the COBRA meeting are we any the wiser re: Cheltenham ?
|
|
By:
only that no of cases will dictate action
|
|
By:
No panic is good, but I would be concerned that after the Bank of England talked about fiscal stimulation this morning uk markets rose by
3% but are now down by 1.2% a very big difference. Suspect the market makers think that this going to get far worse before it gets better. |

By:
The wee Crankie from Jockland spilled the beans live on TV - before the Boris interview was shown.
"Government Plan will be published tomorrow." Stage One - CONTAINMENT - as Current Stage - DELAY - to try and prevent the Spread - Which could include restricting large Public gatherings, such as Sporting Events - "We have NO Plans to do that at PRESENT." |
|
By:
'YES' dropped from 1.6 - in stages - to around 1.53 - after she had spoken.
Dropped from 1.53 to around 1.45 after Boris spoke. |
|
By:
I just took that as small number of cases too early to got to stage 2, think it would change in a matter of hours should there be enough cases to warrant
|
|
By:
Of course it goes ahead, as will the Olympics and the Euros
Haven't learned anything when it comes to how these w*** stains operate? they will NEVER cancel big sporting events, they couldn't bring themselves to do it from a distraction standpoint, the money also |
|
By:
A couple of postponed games in Italy is all you'll get, even though (allegedly) its spreading and numbers are spiking
Yet airports are open and sporting events carry on unhindered Another pathetic scam from the ruling elites  |

By:
Cheltenham is a minority sport if Boris and his advisors wanted to show concern it would be this public meet that is abandoned.
|
|
By:
if you're that confident you must have smashed into "yes" on the go ahead market
|
|
By:
Beggars belief how people think that flying/rail travel and using the tube should be shutdown before Sporting Events. Nobody's children will starve if people don't attend sporting events but if they don't get to work and earn money they will. I love Cheltenham but surely you can't put that before the nations families

Cheltenham been on is worth much more than money to me |
|
By:
Its on you can be assure of that
It was at threat last year with the horse virus and still went ahead |
|
By:
hey foxy, i'd be gutted if they decide (as in the gov) to impose restrictions, but I absolutely expect that to happen, the only question is when
if we can hold off a week great, but i'm still thinking that the cases will multiply back end of week and that might cause them to introduce measures |
|
By:
gov will cancel chelt then offer to take Olympics from japan
idiots  |
|
By:
They wont cancel elise
|
|
By:
they won't cancel whilst they have the decision in their hands of course they won't, but crowd restrictions imposed by the gov won't make it their call and that's what this is about
|

bound to be a fair few more diagnosed when figs released @ 2 oclock.

fingers crossed it's not too bad

They can hardly start cancelling a couple of days before ?? |
|
By:
I admire your confidence foxy. I am looking forward to meeting you and your good lady again but I am not setting my hopes too high. I expect the Armada of horse coming across the Irish Sea will son be being loaded for the trip. I hope the green ( or red ) light is shown to them in time to avoid potential financial losses.
|
|
By:
heres hoping. Nobody other than no backers and ante post non runners want to see it get cancelled.
|
|
By:
yes case, I think they could cancel anytime even the day before or during the festival, but like everyone else i want it to go ahead
