I agree. Have you got any examples? I've just had a good look and all I can see is people saying that others are saying these things, without anyone quoting or naming and shaming.

The problem with Boris I think is he didnt allow himself the rest, he tried running the country while being ill and that wouldnt have helped at all

The problem with Boris I think is he didnt allow himself the rest, he tried running the country while being ill and that wouldnt have helped at allI posted earlier (to some peoples disagreement for some reason) that I read an article just today about how vital "deep sleep" is in the first 3 or so days of any virus... Which basically means trying to get 10+ hours through the night, or if night time sleep is disturbed, napping as much as possible through the day. Trying to "stiff upper lip" with a virus is a really bad idea.

I made myself quite ill a few years back trying to push through a virus, still getting up for school run etc and went back to work far too early, ended up with some weird post-viral syndrome where I almost passed out cold at the bus stop at 7am one morning, and then I was getting sky high temperatures every night for over a week.

There's obviously no way to say that it wouldn't have gone the same way regardless, but the sensible thing for ANYONE to do if they fall sick is stop work immediately and focus on rest.

Worth noting the majority of people admitted are still in intensive care though"reported final outcome" is interesting terminology though, I had assumed it was a certain 50/50 but given that recovery reporting has been dire across the board, I wonder how well reported the recoveries are? Is every recovery reported, or is it on the lacking side like general recovery reporting?

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk ProI wouldn't say I'm more concerned for his wellbeing than I am for anyone else in ICU, though I'm certainly wishing him well as I would anyone else, also. Wishing him harm is disgusting.

I am quite concerned about public reaction if it does end badly, though. I think it'll cause a new panic wave, because of his visibility and status.

It's shameful though if that's what it takes when so many other world leaders responded with science and sense... and his response of herd immunity has brought him to this.

I think if Boris gets through this as I expect him too and the cases and deaths haven't dropped enough I think he will take a really strict approach having gone through the worst part himselfI still quite firmly believe that a "too strict" lockdown would have the opposite effect, though. We're not used to being an obedient population like somewhere like China. In many ways, at normal times, that's a GOOD thing but it means the stronger the "No, you can't", the stronger the impulse to say "****ing watch me".

We also don't have the police or military resources to actually enforce it widely so threats of action are somewhat empty. They could forcibly lock down London and maybe one or two other large cities... That's about it.

:omgno:

To be fair though Mokka, the "herd immunity plan" was never really a thing in action and we've been on "social restrictions" for over a month and a fairly standard lockdown (not any less strict than most countries) since schools closed 2.5 weeks ago. The response wasn't as snappy as it could have been, but it hasn't been overly light IMO.

There is of course the issue of parliament not really sticking to their own rules; clambering all over each other, leaning over shoulders, whispering in each others ears... Whilst informing everyone else to keep a 2 meter distance. It's a bit confusing why they thought it didn't apply to them. But a lot of them have caught it so it clearly went round parliament.

50+% it seems. 50/50 of reported cases but I'd err on the side of all deaths being reported but not necessarily all recoveries.

Also I suspect Boris will have been sent to ICU "earlier" than most as they'll be being extra cautious.

I'm also relatively sure it's 50/50 of cases on ventilator... Not 50/50 of all ICU admissions but there's conflicting info there so I might be wrong.

Not entirely accurate, we had folks up at the podium talking about it, he was talking about it, we found out what his advisors had been saying about protecting the economy rather than the people.

The WHO have said that attacking the virus and being quick and decisive are the most important things, so even pissing about with this for a week has cost lives; not only that, but this has been known about since December, so the fact we only heard about this plan in early March before it was scrapped publicly not long after (tories still deny the strategy ever existed despite video of the cabinet speaking about it), disguises the fact there is no way they weren't working to this plan since it started to spread through Europe.

We knew we were 2 weeks behind Italy, and we tried to Pontius Pilate our way through it. As Cummings is reported to have said "If we lose a few thousand old people to save the economy, then so be it".

I seem to recall the percentage was 75/25 for ICU recovery ..

My understanding was that they got the modelling from imperial college, saw the projected figures from the herd approach, said oh **** and changed strategy. I mean, i can understand it from a Tory party focused on the economy it would take a bit of convincing to shut everything down, but they did do it. Could it have been done sooner? Maybe, but I think you have to bring the people along with you in order to carry a lockdown out successfully, and things needed to get to a stage before that happened, so I think the timing was right for the country personally. Maybe when looked on in a couple of year it will be seen differently

They found data they liked and used it to justify their approach. What we saw of it, is the bit when they were ready to share, but this was going on before. Just comparing your dismissal of my concerns for a strategy that without question cost lives, versus your reaction to Starmer, is illuminating.

Modelling from Imperial college or the WHO who'd been dealing with it since China went public in December? We even had the example of the European countries on our doorstep, and we wasted the advance we had to pursue a strategy that no one was recommending as a way to deal with it. For one reason only.

I don’t know if anyone has posted the link before but on the bbc news site it gives you a Coronavirus map of cases in the uk you can type in your post code and it tells you how many confirmed cases in your area

There is also a break down of how many deaths in each age group.

Almost 9000 dead already, and nearly another 1000 dead in the last 24hrs. I know the media aren't asking any tough questions and are focussing on Boris' recovery in the same way as the DPRK would be, but we're not doing well.

The last thing you want to do is take away a nations liberty, so obviously this is the only thing available to attack the government's attempts at keeping those number down..

At this stage of our lockdown, only a desperate person would use that against a fellow man.

What?

I was saying this as we were dithering at the start of the crisis, I'm not using it for anything, the facts are the facts.

The correct approach of containing the virus was known, Boris didn't want to do that, he wanted to do something else, and now as we're at 980 deaths in the last 24hrs, the breaking news is that Boris waved at the nurses.

It's shocking how badly we've handled this, but whilst half the population makes excuses for them what else is to be expected?

You don't know that for sure Slim , those people probably would have died anyway , we will never know ,the same as you don't know the way we have gone has cost lives . It could have been much worse for all we know.

We do know it though Kaz, that's the thing. How could it have been much worse? We had the same lead in time as Germany and Norway, and they're doing miles better than we are. We had a lead in over Italy and Spain, and we're doing roughly the same. All because we left it too late to act.

I think we'll definitely peak in the next 7-10 days but 3 weeks is a bit ambitious for any relaxed measures... I would say middle of May at the absolute earliest (some easing) and at least July before ANY major change in social distancing measures.



Yes ... the headmasters union are pushing for an early July return to schools in order to give the kids a short two week dose of school life again and prepare them all for the new Sept term ...

It was the opposite science to the WHO was recommending, and the kind of science that allowed the virus to spread unchecked. We had the benefit of watching what other countries had done to attack it, then we did the opposite.

How many times are you going to make this false excuse? He found something that agreed with what he wanted to do, he didn't follow the consensus science as the best way of dealing with it. He wanted to keep the country open and to take it on the chin. That critical time was wasted.

He has been brilliant....and I believe he will reward all NHS workers. Instead of giving MPs an extra 10k to work from home they should stick that into the wage packets of all NHS staff.

I also think he will do right for the NHS although I think he was going to help them anyways even before this cursed virus appeared.

Trouble now though of course is that we’re gonna be practically bankrupt for decades to come ..
