I missed the press conference.
Anyone from the press ask Jenrick which house he is staying in tonight?

That's not high. I am a fairly athletic build, some say, too slim. I ride an exercise bike at around 400 watts for an hour three times a week, do resistance exercises and light weights. I also eat healthily and drink sensibly. My waist is 30-32". I am 24.6.

Average BMI in the UK is 29.

Not the best way, gives a lot of athletes as overweight. Most of us know our ideal weight and how overweight we are. Think the best method is a tape measure and measure your waist.

I seem to recall reading Matthew Pincent was morbidly obese if you used the BMI measure - and that was whilst he was in his rowing prime.

NEW: Dept of Health confirms another 880 #covid19 deaths in hospital in the UK. This brings the total to 15,000+. A month ago Patrick Vallance and govt said we’d be doing well if we kept deaths to around 20,000. Even on the official numbers, looks like we’ll far exceed that.
 
That BMI calculator is very dangerous btw, my height suggests I should be between 8.5 and 11.5 stones, if I was anywhere in that range I would be in hospital, at my absolute fittest and thinnest when I was 27-30yo I was 11stone 3lb and you could count all my ribs visibly.

It would make Aguero overweight for his height and weight at 27.3 which is really what I looked like body shape wise back in the mists of time, I am however a fat **** atm but pfft.
 
What is getting me atm is the fact hospitals are saying they are short of PPE but these fucking advertisers on BM seem to have an unlimited stock of hand gel, face guards and gloves, I think Boris should requisition them all for the NHS.

High R0, high number of asymptomatic cases, same number of deaths. This is all good news. We really need more reliable antibody surveys because this all sniffs of dare I say Herd Immunity!

How will you know who has it to steer clear of when they reopen everything, we like to call them secret carriers, who are the biggest dangers, no symptoms, no self isolating and spreading as they go about their business.

I mean, I could be one and that would be terrible in my line of work, dangerous even.

Maybe masks that they don't want us to wear for some reason might help.
